What if I was a Mormon?

What if I was a Mormon?

So I’m sitting here wondering that if I was a Mormon Democrat on welfare….would Mitt still consider me a mooch? Or would it be cool because help would be provided under the flag of his church? [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmUGpK-eO_g] I don’t need welfare in any form, but

Boston Teachers Rock!!

Boston Teachers Rock!!

I got a close friend that is a very proud Local 103 member here in Dorchester. One day the topic was unions and he said something to me I will never forget “there are those who hide behind the union and those who represent it…..I represent my union”.

The union of the future will have to be more accountable, and take into greater consideration the entities that utilize union labor. The UAW learned this lesson the hard way….but they made changes and are enjoying the fruits with a set of companies they decided to work with instead of drawing a line in the sand. There will always be a place for a solid and accountable union in the United States regardless of those who’s greed drives them to spin it otherwise.

The teachers union here in Boston have proved they are progressive, smart and vested. Boston teachers care about about the end result….our children. Congrats to them for stepping up to the challenge, creating higher standards and representing their union.

Big props to Rand Paul on his position regarding our allies…I couldn’t agree with him more. His position is so common sense, clear cut and brilliant. Bravo!! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5sZaA5PVts]

These aren’t Bostonians…

These aren’t Bostonians…

First of all, if they put actual Bostonians in this video the sh*t would go viral inside of 24 hours. Could you imagine the first Dot or Charlestown kid that gets asked : Life is good in Boston because….. (Huge Pause) …….. “you f*ckin serious
