cj,

"is that some Democrats held Homeland Security hostage because they insisted on union representation and union rules for everyone serving."

Never heard that one.

You never questioned why the ads were made and why they were effective?

It's true. But it would have been normal for those people to have union representation. The Republicans were the ones who ended up killing that legislation because they didn't want union representation. They were hoping to use the legislation as a backhanded way to weaken the unions. Pretty par for their course.
