A group of college students chanted “Karl Marx” and “socialism” while celebrating President Obama’s electoral victory in front of the White House late Tuesday night, a video shot by Campus Reform reveals.

The raucous group of students chanted “Karl Marx, Karl Marx, Karl Marx,” and cited abortion, socialism, and “Obama phones” as reasons for their support of President Obama’s second term.


Thousands of college students from across Washington D.C. spontaneously gathered in front of the White House to celebrate President Obama’s reelection.
Those students were among thousands from colleges across Washington, D.C. who spontaneously gathered in front of fences around the north lawn of the White House to celebrate President Obama’s election victory.

Students present at the rally told Campus Reform that they were supporting the President for a variety of reasons.

“Obama phones,” said an unidentified student. “Everyone is getting a f**king Obama phone.”

Another concern for many of Obama’s college supporters was gay rights.

“I don’t want to be a second class citizen...because I’m gay,” he told campus reform.

Immigration was another major issue among college students at the rally. A large contingent of DREAM Act supporters rallied in the back of the crowd. The supporters chanted “DREAMERS” and held signs with the phrases “Keep Families Together” and “Support the Maryland DREAM Act.”

One unidentified Georgetown undergraduate stated she voted for Obama because “Immigration means a lot to me and I want the DREAM Act to pass.” She continued “young people deserve the opportunity to be whatever they want to be.”

Another student who supported the DREAM act claimed “I’m out here because Obama was reelected. It’s great to have change to move forward.”

One student from Howard stated she couldn’t vote for Romney because “I can’t support someone who wants to take away financial aid.”

After midnight, cars crowded the roads and honked their horns while supporters crowded the sidewalks of Northwest Washington D.C. Students cheered “Obama” while others carried large flags emblazoned with the iconic Obama “O” symbol.

and now a union has finnally won another battle against capitalism..

and the greedy capitalists are already accepting surrender..

so thankfully the union may win the war against this greedy capitalist corporation and shut them down altogether..

Hostess Closes Plants as Workers Strike

Three days of labor strikes have prompted Hostess Brands Inc. to close three plants and mull a possible liquidation of the beleaguered baking company.

Hostess, which has been dueling with various labor groups for the past 10 months as it attempts to claw its way out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, is seeing picket lines at about two-thirds of its plants, according to Chief Executive Gregory Rayburn.

The strikes were organized by the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers & Grain Millers International Union, whose 5,680 Hostess workers account for about 30% of the company's total work force.

The plants produce everything from cakes to Nature's Pride and Wonder breads, and they employ 627 workers, all of whom will lose their jobs. "We don't have the manpower to maintain them during the strike," he said.

He also said that the company didn't have much more wiggle room in terms of shutting down additional plants and that the next step would probably be a complete shutdown.

But it isn't clear whether the Teamsters will continue to cooperate. Over the weekend, many Teamsters crossed the picket lines, according to both Mr. Rayburn and Ken Hall, the Teamsters secretary-treasurer. But Mr. Hall said Monday that his union is still trying to gather more details about the strike and to sort through the contract provisions that specify what actions various Teamster locals can take when another Hostess labor group goes on strike.

Mr. Hall said he is sure his members will honor the picket lines if it is determined that such a move is sanctioned under their contracts. The Teamsters represent about 7,500 of Hostess's 18,300 employees.

and I am sure M is happy twinkies are heading for extinction.. but who will bake the cake we are supposed to eat when we run out of bread?
