Subject: RE: BS: KatrinaGate...
The Monday after Katrina, Old Guy??? What day of thr week did Katrina hit??? Now if you are saying that FEMA was there the following Monday then that would make it one week to the day... One week?!?!?!?... Is this what you now want folks to think is acceptable???

Now as fir Virginia slipping thru the 14(b) loophole of the Taft-Hartley Act, I find that shamefull and a large reason why there is still abject poverty throughout the state, especially among black people... This is not about being pro-business as much as it is the remnents of slavery and a century of Jim Crow... Havin' grown up in Virginia, next to slavery and Jim Crow, 14(b) is the most disgusting symbol of institutaional racism in the commonwealth's history and downright disgraceful... I know... I spent the first half of my working life working with folks who had been directly or indirectly impoverished by 14(b)...

As fir the one person who, IMO, has been such a boon to the business community in my life time, it was Democratis Governor Mark Warner who really changed laws and attitudes...

But screw "right to work"... It is really right to exploit...
