When thousands of peaceful, Tea Party protestors came to Harry Reid’s
hometown of Searchlight, Nev. last Saturday, you would have thought
that the favorite son of this hardscrabble, mining town would garner
tons of local support. *Not so. *Members of IBEW Local 357 were called
to action to agitate the crowd and, as we’ve previously shown, to hurl
eggs at the busses carrying them.
No longer just a face in the crowd… ladies and gentleman this proud
Harry Reid supporter is Edward “Eddie” Gering. *And like his sister in
the struggle Alvivon “Bon Bon” Hurd, he is not just a random loudmouth
with a picket sign. *No, he’s actually the Vice President of Local
357. *He’s one heartbeat away from the Presidency of Harry Reid’s
favorite union.
According to UnionFacts.com, Gering makes over $111,000 a year to look
after his brothers. *Not bad, Eddie. *Is standing on the side of a
desert road screaming support for Harry Reid and disdain for your
fellow Americans who are exercising their constitutional rights in a
peaceful and orderly way part of your job description, or were you
“going the extra mile” last Saturday?
Your incredibly handsome salary paid for by the hard-earned dues of
your brothers and sisters is especially remarkable considering the
average annual salary in the state of Nevada is under $33,000.
I bet the public would also find it interesting to find out that the
Local 357 Pension Fund is in deep trouble. *As of 2007 (before the
recession) they were under-funded by 35%! *Per Federal law they were
required to notify their members of the problem and the fund is now in
a ten-year “Funding Improvement” period. * * Hope that goes well for
your sake, Eddie. *With the salary you are currently hauling in, you
are due for a nice, fat pension. *Good thing your health plan isn’t in
line for one of those “Cadillac Taxes” that your favorite Senator
voted for. * Nope, that tax is only going to the non-union folks in
your state. *Whew, dodged that bullet, didn’t you?

Of course, Bush didn't need Rent-a-Thug - he had Rove and Cheney.
