The REAL Obit for Delores Aguilar

Update: Dolores Aguilar Obit Real

After some debate on the authenticity of Dolores Aguilar's obit in the Vallejo Times-Herald, which if you recall was shockingly brutal, we got to the bottom of it all.

Turns out Aguilar's obit is real - mighty real, according to an anonymous editorial spokesperson at VHT. In order to publish the damning obit, the editor staff did something unprecedented. "We demanded to see Aguilar's death certificate brought in by a blood relative" before going ahead with the obit, our source tells us.

Wal-Mart Warns of Democratic Win

Wal-Mart Stores
Inc. is mobilizing its store managers and department supervisors around
the country to warn that if Democrats win power in November, they'll
likely change federal law to make it easier for workers to unionize
companies -- including Wal-Mart.

In recent weeks, thousands of Wal-Mart store managers
and department heads have been summoned to mandatory meetings at which
the retailer stresses the downside for workers if stores were to be
unionized.

According to about a dozen Wal-Mart employees who

getting nothing in return, and may have to go on strike without
compensation. Also, unionization could mean fewer jobs as labor costs
rise.
