   BK>>Is Union Busting to Blame for Power Outages in DC?   
      
    LL> Now I know you are getting paranoid.  Hurricane Isaac is

    on contractors extended them.

    LL> Blaming Mitt Romney and Republicans for creating massive   
    LL> storms that wipe out electricity of their strongest   
    LL> supporters (Southerners are the staunchest supporters of   
    LL> Mitt Romney and the Republican Party) is just plain nuts.   
      
    Why? Mitt Romney just accused Southerners of being moochers off   
    the government. Of the top ten non-payer states 9 are Southern,   
    or Southwestern.   
      
    1 Mississippi 2 Georgia 3 Arkansas 4 New Mexico 5 Alabama 6

    LL> are around.   
      
    And how many people are around determines how fast it gets   
    fixed, or how few people determines how slowly.
