“This Labor Day, if you find yourself drinking a cold brewski, cooking brats on the Weber, and complaining to your neighbor about your g.d. boss, your g.d. mortgage, and your g.d. Congress, well … you can think of those poor souls that put the holiday on the map.” — Raving Consulting Vice President Christine Faria, on the origins of Labor Day. And we think we’ve got it tough!

I wonder: Did Ms. Angle go to any union-sponsored Labor Day picnics, or any at all?
…
Never mind.
Oh, I forgot to post this link to an article about how conservatives celebrate Labor Day:
“Conservatives celebrate Labor Day by attacking organized labor”

Beck: Labor hero is “indoctrinating children.” During the September 1 edition of his Fox News show, Beck accused Dolores Huerta, an 80-year-old labor activist who co-founded the United Farm Workers with César Chávez, of “indoctrinating our children” because she spoke at a high school. Beck also criticized the Labor Department for spending money on what he called a “catchy tune” that included Labor Secretary Hilda Solis saying, “You work hard, and you have the right to be paid fairly,” and, “[I]t is a serious problem when workers in this country are not being paid every cent they earn.”
