[quote] To be fair, Hope and Change was EVERYWHERE in 2008.[/quote] "Hope and Change" really was absolutely everywhere in 2008, but it was quickly forgotten/avoided once we saw how things were gong despite Obama's reelection in 2012. "I Like Ike" is probably the most memorable and lasting sl...

[quote]Most of the clowns that bash trade unions have never seen a real journeyman work.[/quote] I think you are 100% correct in that assessment.
