Just another example of how unions have ruined this country. I think it's a good thing the morons that picketed Hostess no longer have a job

I will miss you Powder Donut! I will never forget the times we spent together Suzy Q!

Your friend,

The morons who picketed here were telling the news crews they wanted Hostess to fail so another company would come along and buy their recipies....the morons didn't figure in the fact that whoever does buy the recipies want be stupid enough to hire union employees

It really is a crying shame BobbyG ........:cry:

Parents are cutting back on junk food for their kids.

That's part of it, but the real problem is trying to keep up with the cost of health care. If president Obama wanted to show he was a fare president he would offer a bailout to Hostess


What am I going to do with myself ....:cry:

If you haven't already, I'm afraid it's to late. The news crews here showed people wiping out the shelves at the local Kroger store


I predict many lonely nights ahead .... :cry:

Pro Labor? Does that mean he wants everyone on unemployment?

Means that labor is a major part of his constituency. Rush would have a fit.
Maybe Bain Capital will buy the formula and ship the jobs to China.
Chinese doughnuts anyone?

Sorry Pal.
Hostess has a huge operation in Vegas. This time of year is full tilt production of Pepperidge Farm Croutons and Stuffings. One of the largest non-casino jobs in Henderson Nv.
Man I feel bad for the Nevadans...this close to the holidays.

First it was quitting smoking...now it's doughnut dt's...I'll keep you in my prayers.

Just a curious question, but is this appropriate to be posting both political views, and views of american labor here in this forum?

IMO, this thread should be deleted.
