I might have to watch this just to see how much of a puff piece it is. I really don’t expect them to take the SEIU to task for its support of illegal immigration. That’s something you expect a union would oppose, wouldn’t you?

Recently, the City of Houston recognized that a majority of city employees want to form a union with SEIU to win better wages, better health care and a more secure retirement.

This week, the CBS national news program “60 Minutes” is expected to recognize the work SEIU members are doing to raise standards for working families everywhere.

The news program is scheduled to run a 13-minute profile of SEIU and its president, Andy Stern, this Sunday at 6 p.m. To learn more about SEIU, please visit www.seiutx.org

Personally, I don’t call supporting the import of cheap labor as raising standards for working families. Unless by “working families” you mean “familes of union bigwigs.” After all, you can’t obtain political patronage if you’ve got no votes to deliver. And gosh, we all know how honest union politics are south of the border, not to mention how separated from the PRI the unions are there.

Will the Democratic party become PRI-North? Only time will tell.
