Michelle Baby and Walmart the Non-Union Store

Well, if I'm not at home, I'm probably at Walmart, have shopped there for many years, done demos there, and spent a lot of time in store. I know many of the employees, been in their "back room" while doing demos, and been thoroughly amazed at the amount of product that passes through their doors.

Do you know how many butchers they employ, none, why, because years ago some of their butchers talked about "unions," so old Sam Walton just did away with butchers, not a meat cutter anywhere. Everything comes in cut, wrapped and ready to sell.

Anyone remember when Michele sat on the Board at Walmart, she resigned  from the board of TreeHouse Foods Inc., a Wal-Mart vendor, eight days after husband and then White House hopeful Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) said he would not shop at the anti-union store.


Michelle Obama sat on the Board of this Wal-Mart friendly company since June 27, 2005, or just a few months after Obama was elected to the US Senate. Michelle Obama, also a VP of The University of Chicago Hospitals in charge of "community outreach," did not have experience in the private sector before serving on the Board of the WAL-MART ally. In fact, she chose to pursue the Board position in order to gain experience in the private sector, and this experience
 
So now she is holding hands, and they are LARGE hands, with Walmart again even though her husband won't shop at the anti-union store.
 
So, how can she lead a crusade that her own husband won't comply with. "OK, all you guys shop there, everyone but my hubby, the pres."
 
Seems to be a conflict there, or I should say another conflict.
