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

but on a more 
   even tempered note
 
here's a  pre convention
  sum up 
    of a sober
  Cal- State 
     council proposal 
   and its  JERK- FLEX counter
      by  
       the national leadership 
   aka 
            the    sweeno-clique   .... 

----------------------------------

" Conflicting resolutions 
on the AFL-CIO's 
relations with
unions in other countries
 may spark real debate 
at the
federation's upcoming 
convention in Chicago."

--------- lets hope it sparks more then debate -----------
 


 "an open discussion
 on international affairs 
would mark
a challenge 
to the AFL-CIO's foreign policy".


---- u  exactly 
said one substantial 
         mouthful there pally
  
 the whole fucking subject
     of  afl foreign butt fuckin
   "while wearing a union label" 
   has been treated 
    like
  "cousin it's date  "
         for 60 years ----------


" The California state AFL-CIO 
is calling on the national
federation to build
     "Unity and Trust" 
with workers in
other countries 
through a public review
 of past policy "

----- which will require 
the total  final and complete 
    destruction 
    of squalidarity house
 and the renunciation 
of all  past present and future
     interference 
          with  foreign unions
              of any and all  
                 ideological "flavors "
                    what so ever  ----------


 " Supporters want the AFL-CIO 
to repudiate the federations
   past
involvement 
in U.S. government efforts 
to interfere
with the labor movements 
of other countries
 and even
to overthrow governments 
unfriendly to U.S. business"

-------- right on 
           brother luv 
                     right on  ------------

"The resolution would stop 
the AFL-CIO from taking funds
from the U.S. government 
or from quasi-government
sources such as 
the National Endowment for Democracy"

  ----- as a fuckin minimum -----------.


.------  watch out
  gals 

      here comes a plug 
            for old 
      "long  pipe" hirsch 
 
       (it can be skipped) --------------

"The "Unity and Trust" resolution
 is the culmination
 of
 work 
by Fred Hirsch 
of Plumbers and
Pipefitters Local 393 
and the South Bay Central Labor
Council (San Jose)...
 Hirsch  for years 
 has been bringing 
to light
U.S. labor's undermining
 of pro-labor governments 
          in
other countries..."

------ what ya payin this guy fred? -------------

" He was a leader 
 in exposing 
the role
that the AFL-CIO's 
American Institute for Free Labor
Development (AIFLD)
 played in overthrowing elected
Chilean socialist president 
Salvador Allende in 1973  "


------ that all being said
lets move on here 

and we love 
       "the hirshable "  too 

though 
only fred knows what he really knows  

 ( oh     hey 
  hirschy  babe
    sleeve's mom  sez
  "    tighten this  
             freddie "-------------

---------------------------------

------ to continue ---------------

" Efforts to resolve differences 
over a previous
 "Clear the Air" resolution,
 in a meeting between California
AFL-CIO leaders 
and leaders of the AFL-CIO
International Affairs Department,
 were unsuccessful"

----------- ya cause
 the  national sween machine 
like all its afl-xxx
         predecessors 
is a manchurian outfit
particularly
  when it comes to.....
"foreign affairs"  ------------------

" In June 
 the AFL-CIO  exec 
          began 
circulating their own  draft

"Resolution on the Solidarity Center" 

------- or
      "a snow ball for kooling  hell" -----------------


-------- back ground ---------


 "President John Sweeney created 
the Solidarity Center in 1997
 to do the federation's 
         international work,
 after dismantling the tainted AIFLD"

---------- ya and don't that show 
                 how
          evil spirits 
         can jump  bodies
      and shape shift 
  and flea flicker 
               out of scraps 
             and back into 
              the drivers seat 
                   of any new sedan ----------------------

 " The  sweeney resolution 
     calls on 
central labor councils 
and
state federations 
to work with the Solidarity Center
and for the Center 
             to continue its work "

----- stop here
           the lines drawn
    no way can that spook house 
                          "continue " -----------

----as if thats not enough

heres an  added
       in yer face bit -------------


" the  sweeney draft
  also 
      refers specifically
 to U.S. government funding:

"Whereas the AFL-CIO lobbies 
for continued government
funds to strengthen trade unions
 and protect the right
to freedom of association..."

----- line oughta be

  " okay  sween 
  how ya want it?
   whereas 
        the  sodomy house  goes first 
     or whereas
            you go first " ----------

------------- the octopusssy's garden ----------------

" The Solidarity Center 
has operations in 40 countries,
the details of which are unknown 
to most union members"

---------- nice statement -------------
-------- and by contrast ------------

" The "Unity and Trust" resolution
 should cause plenty 
   of 
embarrassment 
to U.S. trade union leaders 
who would
rather forget the past
since 
  it calls 
not for an idle
     review of history 
but for a purge
 of past practices 
         in
order to prevent 
their recurrence in the future"


----------one example of which is ....--------

"After the 1964 military coup
          in Brazil,
 which led to a
brutal 12-year dictatorship, 
an AIFLD Social Projects
Director told Congress,
 "What happened in Brazil on
April 1 did not just happen,
 it was planned
and planned
months in advance.
 Many of the trade union leaders
some
of whom were actually trained 
in our institute
were
involved in the revolution 
and overthrow of the Goulart
regime."

  ------- vintage lovestone blue meany -------------

 " These are the kinds 
      of things 
that trade unionists
 of
the affected countries 
do not forget  
even if unionists
in the U.S. would rather do so"

----- another nice point ---------------

-------- then here comes the squashy part -------------

"Countries like South Africa
 have organized Truth
Commissions 
to review their painful history
 and help
set their future course
 The AFL-CIO should do the
same "
