    Steel company CEO questions American workers' loyalty, lockout continues - By Dan Bledsoe, Orange Leader, TX
    Union members are not only incensed by the lockout but by comments made just hours before by Gerdau Ameristeel Corp.'s top executive, Phillip E. Casey who criticized American workers while praising the work ethics of employees in other countries.
