International Carpenters Union Soft on Bush BC Carpenters Union
When the Wall Street Journal calls International Carpenters Union General President Doug McCarron "Bush's Labor Buddy," you know that union members need to watch for falling objects.
The American central Building Trades Council, which the carpenters are a member of, say Bush is, “the most anti-union Administration in American history” and yet McCarron is as close to President Bush as you can get without officially endorsing him for re-election.
White House records confirm Bush’s visit to the Carpenters Union’s Las Vegas training centre last August, as well as McCarron’s ride on Air Force One and frequent meetings with the President.
While nearly all other unions have endorsed John Kerry for President, McCarron has isolated the Carpenters Union by not publicly endorsing anyone.
