David Bacon | Hundreds of Mexican Miners Fired for Striking

They have got their slimy dirty hand in everything, so it seems, no wonder they got in so quickly and congratulated Calderon. Bet they have those slimy hands in stopping the recount you can be sure. Remind you of the 2000 Gore Bush Election?

David Bacon writes, "Just days after conservative candidate Felipe Calderon declared himself the winner of Mexico's July 2 presidential election, the Mexican federal labor board lowered the boom on striking miners ... The board said they'd abandoned their jobs, and gave the mine's owner, Grupo Mexico, permission to close down operations ... The Grupo Mexico board of directors include directors of Kimberly Clark Mexico (the family business of US Congressman James Sensenbrenner, author of last year's anti-immigrant bill HR 4437) and the Carlyle Group (whose board included President George Bush Sr.)."
