bless this mess


In downtown Los Angeles, Labor Day was marked by a Mass celebrated by Cardinal Roger Mahony. Before the service held at the Cathedral of Our Lady of The Angels, Mahony blessed a sanitation truck, calling the act “a symbol of the dignity of our work.” While delivering the blessing, he sprinkled the truck, parked outside the cathedral, with holy water.

“Bless this truck, and those who use this truck,” Mahony said. “May they travel and use it safely, with care for the safety of others.”

During Mass, he called on unions and employers to work together to put people back to work in lasting employment befitting today’s economy.

“It isn’t just a matter of replacing yesterday’s jobs with more of yesterday’s jobs,” Mahony told worshipers, including many union activists wearing T-shirts displaying their union affiliation. “That may have no future.”

Among those attending was Ana Castro, 53, a native of El Salvador who has worked as a union janitor in downtown Los Angeles for more than 12 years. She said she earns $13 an hour, with healthcare coverage, almost double the amount she garnered in a previous, nonunion job.

My youngest brother, a native of the United States, lost his $12/hour aircraft parts manufacturing job 9 months ago while this broad continues to make $13/hour mopping floors.

It’s no wonder these assholes are beating down folks at town halls. They’re goin’ off the rails on a gravy train.

Hey people, where have you been?  How did you miss the big Hawaiian quake?

It took place in our parallel universe.  You know, the one that produced an evil Kirk and an evil Spock.  Yea, that one!

See, Obama was right all along!  How can you doubt Le Roi?

But what happens if Ocare passes and then the water gets turned back off?  Sold your vote for a lie.

Better to do as LSP mentioned.  Vote no and then dare them to turn off the spigot.

I remember seeing farmers on tv chipping their dying (avocado?)trees that took 10+ years to be able to bear fruit.

Now if the water is turned back on will it be enough to start over or will the farmers trust enough to try?
