First it was the Kossacks turning against Joe Lieberman, then it was (and still is) Hillary vs. Obama and now labor unions are fighting with each other:
(CNSNews.com) - The effort to unionize Ohio nurses has ended with one labor union accusing another labor union of waging a "vicious union-busting campaign."Sweet! Democrats are split on their politics and their unions, what could possibly be next? Hmmm, maybe Code Pink and MoveOn.org can have a steel cage smackdown or NARAL and NOW can have a mud wrestling contest...er, forget that last one, the visual is too horrifying to contemplate.
The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) says nurses at nine Catholic Healthcare Partners hospitals in Ohio were all set to join the SEIU, when the California Nurses Association (CNA) barged in with a "union-busting onslaught."
"Nearly 8,000 nurses and other healthcare workers in Ohio saw their dreams of forming a union derailed today after the California Nurses Association flooded the state with hostile organizers and bombarded workers with wildly false and misleading leaflets and phone calls urging them to vote against the union," SEIU said on Tuesday.
AFL-CIO officials refused to intervene to stop CNA's union-busting campaign, SEIU complained. The California Nurses Association is an AFL-CIO affiliate. The SEIU broke away from the AFL-CIO almost three years ago, and that partly explains the bad blood. With 1.9 million members, SEIU describes itself as the fastest-growing union in North America.
We are settling into a McCain candidacy and the Dems will be fighting for months or even years if Hillary finagles the nomination. This is a good time to be a right of center blogger to be sure with the daily content availability absolutely staggering.
Update: Now it's the so called "progressives" vs. "Blue Bush Democrats". It's awesome, folks. I guess the FDL geniuses forgot that it was the Blue Dog Dems who handed them the majority. I say to all these Dems fighting each other: Bring It On!
