February 26, 2010 Evansville, Indiana. Click here to see our previous post about Whirlpool moving 1100 of our jobs to Mexico. The folks in Evansville, Indiana let Whirlpool know that moving to Mexico might not be a good idea. We covered the event with photos (click here to view photos) and videos (the videos are after the page break) hoping to give our readers a flavor of what transpired in Evansville, Indiana February 26, 2010 and according to our sources the Evansville police estimated 5500 were at the rally.
Richard Trumka had this to say: "What’s happening here in Evansville is a head-on collision between corporate greed and failed economic policies-and it’s happening all across our country." Click here to see the video.
Ed Marksberry the Democratic candidate for congress in Kentucky's 2nd Congressional District stood up with and for workers at the Whirlpool plant in Evansville, Indiana February 26, 2010. I was hoping to get a video clip of his opponent Brett Guthrie, but he was nowhere to be found. Could it be when it comes to jobs Brett Guthrie is all hat and no cattle? You reckon Brett Guthrie, if elected, will continue to enhance an environment favorable for corporations like Whirlpool that ship our jobs to Mexico? I suspect he will! What do you think?
WASHINGTON, Dec 30 (Reuters) - The eight American civilians killed in a suicide bombing at a military base in southeastern Afghanistan on Wednesday were all CIA agents, U.S. officials said. CIA officials were not immediately available to comment, and the U.S. officials said they could not provide details pending notification of the agents' families. The explosion, at a military base in Khost province near the border with Pakistan, caused one of the highest foreign civilian death tolls in an insurgent strike in the eight-year war.
