Call to action Portland Peeps: Boycott Safeway and Fred Meyers - UPDATE. Yesterday, the Hillsboro store manager at Fred Meyer called police to arrest three union representatives for talking with workers—a right guaranteed to workers under federal law. Two Union representatives were arrested.
If you care about worker's rights, please do not shop at Fred Meyers in Oregon.

Call to action Portland Peeps: Boycott Safeway and Fred Meyers
If you support Union Workers, and you live in the Portland area, please do not shop at Safeway of Fred Meyers. Apparently Safeway can afford to fund things like the Oregon Blues Festival... and the Ladies Professional Golf Association but can't seem to honor a Union contract for its workers.
Shop where employees are treated as though they mattered instead.

These are the Democrats we need to makes sure are voted out of office ASAP
These are the Democrats that joined with the Republicans to defeat the Single Payer option which would guarantee health care for all Americans.
Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.), Kent Conrad (D-N.D.) and Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.), Sens. Bill Nelson (D-Fla.) and Tom Carper (D-Del.)
So if you live in these states, consider this: Your Democratic "representatives" have voted against your financial best interests while they and their families enjoy a cradle-to-grave insurance policy that YOU pay for with your tax dollars.
By the way, this thing isn't over yet, but if you guys don't care about this enough to make phone calls, write letters and inform others, then no bitching from you next time you can't afford health care, or loose your house so you can try to save some one you love from cancer.
The democratic process requires involvement beyond pulling some lever at the voting polls.
