The UAW, not content with bankrupting GM and Chrysler once, want a repeat performance. And with Bob King at the helm, and apparently done campaigning for world peace and praying at the US capitol, they may yet get the double double. But first, it's time to put on the sheep's clothing and pretend to be rational. From the Detroit Free Press: UAW reveals ideas to try to level playing field. By 'leveling the playing field', what they mean is putting a thumb on the scale to tip the balance in their favor, but such is establishment media and their newspeak.
The document, called “UAW Principles for Fair Union Elections,” outlines 11 ideals that are designed to level the playing field between the UAW and an employer during a union campaign and election.But opting out from being forced to join the union is not. The document with the 11 principles can be found at this link, but just check out #2 for one:
....The principles include an agreement that the ability to join a union is a “fundamental human right.”
Employees must be free to exercise the right to join a union or refrain from joining a union in an atmosphere free of fear, coercion,intimidation or threats. There is no free choice if a worker is afraid of losing a job or losing benefits as a result of his or her choice, or is intimidated into making a choice not of one’s own making.
The Texas Rangers need to hope they get the Adrian Beltre that showed up in Boston in 2010 for the next few years, and not the one who the Seattle Mariners received after handing the third baseman his first big free agent contract.

Free Agent third baseman Adrian Beltre is no longer a free agent, after signing a 6-year, $96 million deal with the Texas Rangers.
I'm sure this move is getting some Rangers fans very excited.
If I were a Rangers fan, I'd be upset.
Adrian Beltre isn't a $96 million dollar player. Not even if the deal were for 10 years. He's not worth that much money. The Rangers are wasting money that they could put towards a veteran pitcher, either through free agency or trade. Even if they had cut the deal by just $10 million, they'd have an extra $10 million to use on upgrading their team in another way.
Adrian Beltre isn't a team player. Notice how he waited for his $90-plus million deal to decide that he wanted to win. He could have wanted to win with the Oakland A's, a much improved, young team in need of good leadership and veteran presence, or the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, a team that, with him in their lineup, would have a much better shot at taking the division in 2011.
The Rangers, in making this signing, are disrespecting the face of their franchise, Michael Young, by making him move positions yet again. Making him move once to make room for Elvis Andrus is one thing. Making him move a second time in two years, that's disrespectful. I don't care that he says he's okay with it. Deep down, he's upset, and he should be.
Yes, Beltre is the superior third baseman defensively. But that's like the Yankees resigning Mariano Rivera and then telling him they don't want him closing anymore. You just don't do that, especially to the face of your franchise, two times in two years.
