One man's hostage-taker is another woman's social justice advocate, I suppose.

The thing that worries me about the LEFT rhetoric is this: it sounds like language tapes that repeated often enough begin to sound "true". An example: a representative from the CWA ( talk or justifying ) the strike against VERIZON ( I have no connection with either ) talks about unfair salaries for the executives. But wait moment here: who says the owner of a private company cannot repeat his profits ? Its the class warfare stuff that does and let me make reference to the rioting in Great Britain. On top of that the lame response from the government. That is what this rhetoric is all about. The Republican Party has been criminally negligent in dealing with it. It is dangerous.

Interesting commercial, because that's when all our current budget busting redistributive policies began, that led directly to all our problems today, way back in the late Hippie 60's. Obviously, although we don't get to see it in this video, Bat Man caved in to all her demands, and the Taxpayers were left holding the Bill, and from then on the Debt just kept on growing. Now Bat Girl was happy, but why wouldn't she be, she got a big fat raise?

So it's all Bat Man's fault!! Thanks Bat Sh*t Man!!
