So, if you are a union worker, you are a tool of the 'radical left'?...maybe Philadelphia dockworkers haven't taken any action because they are 'tools of organized crime' or 'tools of the Democratic machine'?..does opposition to the Iraq war make one a 'radical leftist'?...since this war has cost us over a $TRILLION, not to mention 5000 servicemen's lives (and you realize that the only ones counted as battlefield deaths are soldiers who actually die in country; soldier who die after they are flown to Ramstein, Germany and other military hospitals out of Iraq aren't included in the body count) plus, depending on the estimates, from 500000 to 1000000 Iraqi casualties, you still support this 'war for democracy'?...well, then vote for McCain, as he assures us of 100 years more war...and Obama will toe the same line: he has already been given his marching ordes, and if this isn't clear to him yet, I assure you, it will be made clear to him if it looks like he will be elected...how about America First?...how about fixing our economy?...is that a 'radical leftist' solution?...don't be deceived...war is a racket.
