More Patrick Coolican Stupidity

Today, Patrick Coolican, resident Neanderthal of the Las Vegas Sun writes about the problems between the thug union,the Culinary Union and Station Casinos, which is basically non union.
http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/mar/23/culinary-union-appears-dug-long-fight-against-stat/First, Coolican puts a video from a local TV station saying there is a possible Culinary Union strike against Station Casinos.  Except there is 1 slight problem: The Culinary Union does not represent workers at Station Casinos, so how can there be a strike?  Maybe a protest, but not a strike.
Coolican does point out some pitfalls of the Culinary Union:  Since the judge’s ruling, though, the union, which represents more than 50,000 workers on the Strip, has seemed uncharacteristically off its game and off message. Sen. Steven Horsford, presumably a strong Democratic ally, ignored a union admonition that officeholders not take money linked to Station Casinos, as first reported by my colleague Jon Ralston.
Culinary workers at a downtown restaurant reportedly harangued Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh for putting up his business guests at Station-owned Green Valley Ranch, and the incident leaked into the media.
On Thursday, the Culinary again went sideways, scheduling a rally at Red Rock Resort the same night the property was hosting a big fundraiser for Bishop Gorman, the Catholic high school, at which the Engelstad Family Foundation was to be honored.
But Coolican has decided to side with the union,which is not a surprise since Coolican is an extremist liberal.
From the article: If the Fertitta brothers, who control Station Casinos, seem dug in, the workers are just as hunkered down, Taylor said.
“Those workers are not going anywhere, and they feel very strong and they’re extremely determined,” he said.
Yeah, Mr. Taylor, head of the Culinary thugs, the workers at Station Casinos are dug in: Against the union.
