If you vote against the repeal of Taft-Hartley I will get my Goons to rip your arm off there will be severe... implications... for your Presidential bid.
If you don't like the idea, just abstain.

LOL Somehow, I think he's making fun of me...

Al, I voted Nay. it just isn't the time.

Your threat is very interesting, but also without power. The UL will already direct preferences to Harry over myself and I also believe my campaign would be hurt more if I gave into bully tactics such as these, that would make me look like a weak candidate and leader for the nation. The fact of the matter is, I would've probably abstained if you didn't bully me, but you did, so my vote was tipped to a nay. I think my vote might cause more problems within your campaign then my own; members of your party might not appreciate that you lost them the bill.

Good for you Hugh, way to stand up to The Man.

Ahh... satire...

Hugh the threat wasn't serious: it was a satirical take on an opinion piece by Niles.
If you saw it as bullying or a threat, I'm sorry.
And in the spirit of this I've done a follow up to this thread...

[Platypus]

I know it wasn't serious, but i also don't think it was terribly funny. I wouldn't have voted for it anyway, though.

Its not so much the Repeal of Taft-Hartley being a bad idea, its just the legislation and debate for the repeal was too veigh.
