Default ALPA is a Communist Union . . . . .

. . . . . . according to Glenn Beck.

Please follow along with me on my 3rd Grader's chalk board that is behind me.

Here we go . . . . . (please keep in mind this post is 100% factual and based on Glenn Beck type "logic" and "news" reporting)

On November 15 of this year, just a few weeks ago, on his Fox News show, Glenn Beck launched an attack on the AFL-CIO and its president, Richard Trumka, claiming that the "Communist Party USA is admitting to the party's working relationship with Richard Trumka ... and the AFL-CIO."

Glenn Beck is quoted as saying from this "news" cast: "If you're in the unions, do you realize that your money, your union dues, are going to stand with the communists and the revolutionaries in this country?"

Draw a big fat chalk circle around the above AFL-CIO "fact". Draw a line to the other side of the chalk board, make another big fat chalk circle and fill it in with the following fact:

Directly from the ALPA web-site: "ALPA is the only pilot union affiliated with the AFL-CIO. ALPA’s president serves as an AFL-CIO Executive Council member and as a vice-president of the AFL-CIO’s Transportation Trades Department, which represents 35 member unions in the aviation, rail, transit, trucking, highway, longshore, maritime, and related industries."

Now draw a third big fat chalk circle and connect the circles with chalk lines . . . the only reasonable conclusion a patriotic American can make is that ALPA is directly affiliated with, directly participates in, and is fully organized with the Communist Party.

Only in America, can a true patriot like Glenn Beck be paid $2 million per year to bring these news facts to light. And oh yeah, according to Forbes magazine of this year, Mr. Patriotic himself makes an additional $30 million or so from his radio and publishing businesses.

I am now off to wrap myself in the American flag and watch the news. Guess which channel I am going to watch?
