    Conservative Group Says GOP Wasting Time Wooing Teamsters "She was angry at points. She was insulting at points," AFL-CIO President John Sweeney said following the meeting, according to press reports. "In all my years...I have never seen a secretary of labor who's so anti-labor."
    Up until the dispute over the financial disclosure law, Cronin said the Teamsters had come to reluctantly accept the Bush administration's positions on Mexican truckers, the minimum wage and trade agreements.
    As a result, Republicans became increasingly optimistic that they would win favor with the Teamsters and the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America.
