The law said that they could not strike. They broke the law, they should have been destroyed for breaking the law.<<

That is not the point. It was the ruthless manner in which he did it and why he did it, which was to make a point and start the ball rolling on union busting.

SEC had 5,000 complaints and never followed up on one. bush wanted to enforcement of regualtions and he made that clear.

Bush and Cheney engaged in so many lawless acts they should be in jail for treason. Taking the country to war on trumped up charges, outing a CIA agent, waterboarding (torture, as we put Japanese soldiers to death for it), illegal wire tapping and a whole array of illegal invasion of privacy acts.

Seems like we have one set of laws for the rich and one set of laws for the poor.
