Transit Strike Leader Compares Strikers To Rosa Parks

More bad PR:

Bloomberg again reminded residents that the strike is illegal under state law. Toussaint countered that the Metropolitan Transportation Authority had broken the law by including pensions in negotiations.

He said he was doing what it takes to protect his more than 33,000 members.

“Had Rosa Parks answered the call of the law instead of the higher call of justice, many of us who are now driving the bus would still be in the back of the bus,” he said.

Criticized for suggesting his cause was the same as Rosa Parks, he then backpedaled and said that he had mispoken. "I meant Jesus," he said. "That's why we're doing this at Christmas, you know."

Meanwhile... The Rosa Parks Brigade is destroying New York retail businesses during the crucial Christmas season.

What a dummy. IF he was smart he would compare them to Cindy The Peace Mom, who is morally powerful than Rosa Parks, MLK and Jesus combined.

More poetry.

The Raving

Once upon a morning dreary, while I pondered weak and weary
The many blocks I had to walk till I reached my workplace door
While I trodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a slapping
As of someone angrily snapping, snapping at a union whore
“’Tis some protestor,” I muttered, “Slapping at some union whore”
Only this and nothing more

Ah, distinctly I remember, it was in the bleak December
And each separate union member wrought havoc across the city shores
Eagerly I wished them sorrow, vainly I had sought to borrow
My neighbors car – I’ll return it tomorrow; tomorrow back to your door
For the sick and twisted union whom the city had made sore
Had kept me from my workplace door

And the silken sad uncertain rustling of the mayor’s mindless blustering
Chilled me – filled me with a knowledge this guy was a mindless bore
So that now, to still the beating of my heart I stood repating
“’Tis some protester slapping down a union whore”
Some angry protester slapping down a union whore
This it is, and nothing more

Presently my anger grew stronger, hesitating then no longer
“Sir,” said I “or madam, truly your forgiveness I implore”
But the fact is, I was trudging and your anger I’m not judging
And so loudly you were slapping, slapping upon that union whore
That I couldn’t help but hear and in fact, I cried and swore
I’d love to join you in your anti-union war

I joined him in his angry tirade, finding peace in this angry crusade
Laughing, crying, weeping as we beat down this union whore
“Wretch,” I cried, “thy Boss hath lent thee – with these placards he hath
Sent thee and now! – watch as we beat you senseless with your own sick lore
Work, o work and we no longer, no longer will you hear our roar
Just press your button and take me to my workplace door!

And the union thug, never getting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid seat of power just inside the subway door
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon that is dreaming
And the money o’er him streaming sends our city into the deficit floor
And my wallet from out that shadow lies sad and empty on that floor
Shall be lifted – nevermore!

They compared Tookie Fkn Williams to Rosa Parks, too.

Posted by: on December 22, 2005 10:53 AM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Rosa Parks only ride on moving buses?

Posted by: utron on December 22, 2005 10:58 AM

Wait, I don't get it, what's wrong with comparing a labor dispute with Rosa Parks. Jesse Jackson's been comparing everything to Selma or Rosa for years.

Posted by: joeindc44 on December 22, 2005 11:00 AM

Excuse me, but where in the name of all that is holy does this dingbat get the idea that pensions are SACRED? If he had to go out and get a job that actually produced something, we'd probably have one more homeless mouth to suck off the tit of government giveaways.

The fact that he has a pension at all should please him. The fact he thinks the public owes it to him makes me puke.

Why hasn't anyone else seen the inhumanity before now??

Bus drivers of all races being paid the pathetic sum of 62,000 a year to perform the grinding labor of driving around in circles is EXACTLY the same thing as black passengers being forced to sit in the back of the bus.

And I know Rosa would not hesitate to agree. But sadly she just passed away so we must take my word for it. I'm sure Jesse and Al would back me up on that.

Color me Rosa Parks!
I refused to give my parking space to a white couple last night at the mall.

P.S. the rumor is that the strike is about to end. I hope not. How much you want to bet that the fines will be waived by toothless RINO mayor, the AG running for governor, and the RINO governor?

slublog - that was beautiful.

Posted by: marc on December 22, 2005 11:25 AM

Yeah right - the strikers are Rosa Parks! How insulting to the memory of a good woman! The strikers are nothing more nor less than co-conspirators and/or dupes of greedy union thugs with no conscience or morality.

I don't get it. My wife has refused to give up her back seat ever since our honeymoon, and nobody's calling her a hero.

Certainly not me.

Posted by: Zorachus on December 22, 2005 11:49 AM

Drudge is reporting the strike is over.

Posted by: Johnnywaka on December 22, 2005 03:19 PM

More great news: We are now allowed to carry screw-drivers and scissors aboard an airplane.

This is particularly good for me because I like to fix small aplliances and wrap Christmas presents while flying.

Posted by: Bart on December 22, 2005 03:24 PM

What a load of horse hooie the strikers are a bunch of selfish self centered union thugs holding a whole city hostage for their own needs its time to break up these crooked unions

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals.
The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite.
Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
