The Ludlow Legacy - Union Murders, Bill Clinton, Mark Penn and Pelosi's Congressional Fakeout Yesterday

David Sirota has put together an excellent piece on Huffington today regarding what he calls The Ludlow Legacy, a reference to Rockefeller and the US Government murdering union reps in Colorado 94 years ago. He brings up the Ludlow Massacre because unions in Colombia are experiencing the same type of horror show today. This same Colombian Govt that has bought off Bill Clinton and Mark Penn, and now it appears even Nancy Pelosi. It turns out Pelosi did her dramatic CAFTA block yesterday only to make sure the deal could actually pass later on since it was sure to be voted down yesterday.

This is just another reason why we need to jettison the old school political hacks like the Clintons and Pelosi. This is truly disgusting.

Thank you for posting this. I found (and recommended) it belatedly. It's disturbing that Clinton's many ties to Colombia generated no debate questions from ABC. The full Sirota article:
