Meanwhile… Back in New Jersey…

Did you happen to catch excerpts from Steve Sweeney’s Labor Day Weekend speech to the South Jersey AFL-CIO.

He’s in North Carolina this week for the DNC. Check out what he said last week back at home (h/t NJ.com):

Addressing more than 400 union officials at Friday’s Southern New Jersey AFL-CIO Labor Day breakfast, Sweeney urged the crowd to “punish our enemies” in the upcoming general election.

“We have an election coming in November, and we have a person running [for the Republican Party] that doesn’t dislike us — he hates us,” said Sweeney. “I know this Labor Day you’re all going to be thinking about the long weekend, but the most important thing is to protect ourselves.

“Every single protection that unions have fought for and won — the 40-hour work week, prevailing wage and child labor laws — the national GOP, the Teabaggers, they are trying to wipe us out.”

Yup, this guy is interested in “higher” office!

Never think it can’t get worse, Save Jerseyans. Even in a state already represented at the federal level by Frank Lautenberg and Bob Menendez.
