United We Bargain, Divided We Beg

Welcome to "The Gods Are Bored," where today we will entertain you with snapshots from the 2006 Philadelphia Labor Day parade and family festival!

Everyone pictured here was told they'd be featured on a pro-labor blog.
These folks didn't mind at all.













Every local had its own colors.



















These two ladies represented the Stagecrew Union.













My daughter didn't know what to make
of these union organizers.



















She was happier with Dad's co-workers.



















Think these gals will wanna work for Wal-Mart?



















American Patriots for Organized Labor.



















Prettiest Longshoreman



















Prettiest in Parade



















Isn't it funny how many American flags you see in these pictures? Amazingly, union members don't see themselves as disruptive, criminal, anti-American leftist communists.

I'll bet they even say their prayers.

Kudos to you, Anne, for supporting organized labor at a time when it needs your help and the working people of America, any and all, need to unite for better wages, health care, and sane schedules.

PS - Your daughter is adorable.
