I would like to congratulate you on your entry into Blanche Lincoln’s Arkansas primary race. I read about it in this morning’s blog on Firedoglake.”

After reading Jane Hamsher’s article entitled, “Bill Halter Crosses the $5 Million Mark,” I emailed the White House to suggest they remain on the sidelines instead of supporting Ms. Lincoln, along with the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC).

I believe it is long past time for the Democratic party to acknowledge the work and sacrifice the unions make on behalf of unappreciative politicos in the Democratic Party.

It appears to me as if it may be time for the unions to put this White House and an ungrateful DSCC on notice. The analogy presented in Clint Eastwood’s film, “The Outlaw Josey Wales,” when the protagonist tells the ungrateful and unappreciative, “Don’t piss down my back and tell me its raining,” exemplifies democratic politicos’ treatment of labor organizations, and I believe its past time to retaliate.
