thats been 
beef jerkin

something fresh 
is blowin in the wind ....


===============================

la times this april:




"though spokesman, Rob Stutzman,
 tried to downplay the role of
DeMoro's  nurse's group 
in the governor's 
recent steep fall in the polls
most observers see a real connection
since DeMoro
  started after the gubinator 
for his december crack
 that he'd  
" kick their butts"

'she's  twisted it back on him"
 says nurses union 
vp  truman bobrick
" course he didn't know
              she's a wild cat in a fight "


DeMoro's foes 
in the hospital industry 
denounce her 
as a "radical"
who engages 
In intimidation tactics 
twists the facts 
and sullies the nursing
                    profession



Jan Emerson
 spokeswoman 
for the California HospitalAssn.

 said the nurses union 
has been "impossible to
deal with" under DeMoro

 Emerson said a demonstration
at the hospital association's 
Sacramento offices in
2001 turned ugly
 with protesters bursting through
doors and threatening to 
"urinate 
on the carpet" 
if they
were not allowed 
to use the bathroom

THE National Labor Relations Board
 last year
overturned an organizing election 
the association had won 
at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
 in Los Angeles

 The board found 
that the 2002 election
 had been tainted
because  antiunion nurses
 had received anonymous
telephone threats 
against "their families and pets"



according to 
bobrick
The association has won 
"more than 65 elections" 
on DeMoro's watch
 while losing 
only
" about a half-dozen
                  all close ones '

"she's winning nine out of ten "
he says 

 in her 12 years at the helm
Demoro has tripled 
the associations membership 
 
today Cal Nurses 
  represents 60,000 nurses
 a third 
 of the  180,000
       hospital nurses 
           in California
"we'll get the rest "
  says Demoro 

typical of her bruising tactics
was a recent 
    union demo in san francisco 
at a "fund raiser for the gubinator" 

" while we clogged the streets 
 in every direction with
Demonstrators " DeMoro recounts  
 "our  picket line 
hurled insults 
at  all  his  well-dressed 
contributors 
as they pulled up in their limos 
 you know  
stuff like 
 " Corporate scum!"
   " money sows "
  
  her response now
  looking back 
"all those  out raged 
  purple  faces
wow ..what a kick .....  "


DeMoro says the union's triumphs 
flow from 
the "childrens crusade-like'
              resolve 
of all 30 part-time directors
 all working nurses
 all part of a  union  culture 
that emphasizes collaboration'

" membership is
more than 90% female".

DeMoro brands Schwarzenegger 
"a silly marble headed
                 sexist clown "

during an informal 
 press conference  
At her union's  headquarters
 DeMoro  lifted 
one of her row of
          bobble-head 
               "girlie guv" dolls
 from her desk 
 dropped it
  on the rug 
and stomped on it 

"  ooops 
I broke his head off didn't I " 
 while retrieving
 the pieces she asked 
 "Do you think that's symbolic?"
