Politics 3

Can anyone else see the similarity between Unions and Congress under the Democratic leadership. It began during Bush's term when the Democrats walked out in unison. Now that they are in power, they use the same tactics I have seen union bosses use to keep their minions in subjection. This kind of power removes the elected officials from the sworn duty to represent their constituents and the constitution and places them in lockstep agreement to party leadership. What union tactics are brought to mind? Well my brief sojourn with unions allows me to include the following observed tactics, remembering that the list is not inclusive.
1. Threats
2. Friendship
3. Inclusion in the crowd
4. Isolation
5. Destruction of property
6. Endorsements
7. Down playing mistakes, indiscretions, lies, blunders
8. Money
9. Power
10. Name calling
11. Selling of positions
12. Pressure against family or values
