Via Chris Stirewalt at Fox News: “Well, you know, the truth of the matter is that as President of the United States, I’ve got a lot of responsibilities.

#WIunion fails big in #WIrecall efforts
Walker wins. Kleefisch wins. Comfortably. Three of the four GOP Senate seats have been called for the incumbents, with the last one expected to stay in GOP hands. Most startling statistic from tonight’s victory: over 30% of union households went for Walker, who gave a very gracious victory speech calling for unity. Quote of the [...]

In its hard climb to raise $36.6 million for the Democratic National Convention, Charlotte’s host committee is reaching out to one of the party’s perennial allies: labor unions. They represent a potentially lucrative fountain of money. While the convention’s new self-imposed fundraising rules prohibit cash donations [...]
Russia’s North Korean slaves
**Posted by Phineas An appalling, but sadly unsurprising revelation at The Daily Caller that the world’s largest prison camp masquerading as a nation, North Korea, rents out its own people as slaves in Siberian camps: Q. In this Vice Guide you are traveling not to North Korea, but into the Siberian region of Russia where [...]
#DNC2012 discriminates against CLT-area workers in favor of out of state union labor
The crew at Labor Union Report have been doing an absolutely outstanding job of uncovering a disturbing story that should be front page news here but isn’t: The fact that, in spite of denials by both them and Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx to the contrary, the Democratic National Convention Committee is indeed discriminating against Charlotte-area [...]
Fleecing the taxpayers: it’s not just the Chicago Way
**Posted by Phineas Yesterday I linked to a John Kass column about how some union bosses are legally ripping off the taxpayers of Illinois. (ST covered it in much more detail here.)

Revealed: How union bosses have gone from fighting “the man” to being “the man”
My co-blogger Phineas touched on this topic here, linking to a must-read piece from Chi-Trib columnist John Kass, but I wanted to expand a bit on the issue after reading a couple of related Chi-Trib stories that will get your blood boiling just as it did mine, Phineas’, and John Kass’.
