The answer.

Las Vegas, Nevada.

Casino workers are union workers and union workers are Democrats.

Your opinion is valid, but it is consistent with Mitt Romney, George W. Bush, Jeb Bush and the Christian Coalition.

Sometimes you're judged by the company you keep.

I'll take Deval Patrick, Barney Frank, and Ed Randell as my company, and I'm proud to stand with them. You know, choice. Adult Americans making Adult decisions. Kinda like, well, treating adults like adults.

Yes. Too bad there isn't a law requiring all workers who are not Cleita Aug 2012 #22

You used a union to enact legislation which creates poverty for other workers. former9thward Aug 2012 #23
