And unions sure do not need organizing advice from Occupy. As a Democratic activist in Michigan I can tell you those people in labor are very smart. They know what they are doing, they've been at it for a long time/ To be honest some of them are the smartest people I've known.

One of my very dearest friends was a UAW organizer, let me tell you, they are really good at what they do. I wouldn't dare insult her or the others I know by suggesting they get some tips from Occupy.
