Democrats vs Wla-Mart

What do you do with a company that employes over 1 million Americans and makes $316 billion in revenue? If you are a Democrat, you turn them into a campaign target.

"DES MOINES, Aug. 16 — Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware, a likely Democratic presidential candidate in 2008, delivered a 15-minute, blistering attack to warm applause from Democrats and union organizers here on Wednesday. But Mr. Biden’s main target was not Republicans in Washington, or even his prospective presidential rivals.

It was Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest private employer."

Forget Islamic terrorists, Wal-Mart is apparently the largest single threat to American safety! Instead of focusing on the danger that terrorists they cater to unions.

Never mind the fact that Wal-Mart makes life better for the middle class by making more products available at a more affordable price. Never mind the fact that many of Wal-Mart's employees are the very voters that the Democrats say they are reaching out to. Never mind the fact that many of Wal-Mart's shopers are the same "values voters" that the Democrats are trying to court! Instead, focus on the fact that Wal-Mart doesn't "provide benefits" - never mind the fact that most Wal-Mart employees are PART TIME employees and companies are not required to give full time benefits to part time employees. Never mind that over 10 million Americans shopped at Wal-Mart on the Friday after Thanksgiving last year.

Yep - that is a winning strategy.....
