			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uGI37PlD40s/2.jpg" align="left">This is the first ever edition of the USWGO News from the HYIPO Division. Our news is all reliable, no conspiracy theories, no official news from blogs and small sources that can easily have fake news, no propaganda, no bull, and this news uses very good news sources.</p>
<p>USWGO News is the ultimate startup news program that was ever in the history of HYIPO and USWGO. USWGO News is all public domain, non profit and provides valuable news, opinions, and events going on with USWGO.</p>
<p>This version only had 3 news topics of choice because this is just a Beta Start up and each week or 2 a new News Podcast will be uploaded on the internet so that USWGO won&#8217;t just be a political coalition, it will be also your weekly news source as well. USWGO News is brought to you by Brian D. Hill, HYIPO, and USWGO itself.</p>
<p>This news edition I talk about the 4 ThePirateBay defendants found guilty by a Swedish judge, talking about the new Tea party Sensation Tea Bag Brian, and also talks about a Iranian Journalist being held in prison for charges of Espionage.</p>
<p>This news video is public domain and may be shared, modified, copied, sold, put on national television, and/or burned to discs. Thanks for watching our news!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/ptFOLYwOXhU/2.jpg" align="left">Douglas McCarron tightened his control of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners at the unions convention in Las Vegas on Aug. 25, when delegates voted to give him a third five-year term. A pro-democratic opposition slate, Restore the Vote, and its individual candidates could muster only about 12% of the total vote. Even before the convention, McCarron had amassed enormous power over the unions 550,000 members by transferring the authority of its 2,200 locals to 55 regional councils, whose officers were handpicked by him and conform to his wishes. In effect, he runs the union like it is his personal property, as he did when he quit the AFL-CIO four years ago without a vote of the membership. To enshrine his dictatorial powers in the unions constitution, he had the delegates, most of whom are beholden to him for their jobs, pass Section 10m of the newly revised UBCJA Constitution, which states: The General President shall have authority to appoint interim officers of newly- established, consolidated or merged Local Unions or Councils but it also adds two words, and delegates,  thus further consolidating McCarrons tremendous power. McCarron runs the union like a corporation, claiming that centralized leadership (his) is more efficient and attractive to employers and would produce more jobs for working carpenters. Opposition to McCarron has grown. In British Columbia, angry carpenters voted to exit from the UBC to escape from his clutches. He is faced with numerous lawsuits challenging his denial of members rights. But there was no broad movement at the convention to come close to unseating him as president. So why did the insurgents, representing themselves as reformers, invite McCarron to become one of the seven partner unions within the Change to Win Coalition? Is his ruthless, anti-democratic behavior acceptable to unions like the SEIU and UNITE-HERE, who have always prided themselves as being progressive organizations? What role are the Carpenters expected to play in the organizing strategy of the Coalition, since they have almost nothing in common with five of its member unions? Or will McCarron, the poster boy of Corporate Unionism, become a model for the other unions in the CTW? And how will the SEIU and its president, Andy Stern, who have criticized President Bushs domestic and foreign policies, deal with McCarron, who is Bushs darling labor leader, who gets to ride on Air Force One? The President, who has never invited Sweeney or any member of the Executive Council to the White House, not even for a cup of coffee and a hello, happily attends the Carpenters Labor Day picnics. The presence of Republican-minded McCarron within the Coalition adds another note of uncertainty about labors role and strategy in the 2006 congressional and 2008 presidential election. The Coalition is downgrading electoral politics in favor of focusing on organizing, while the AFL-CIO is counting on a Democratic Party victory that can translate into greater labor influence in government and the economy. Dont expect the kind of labor unity that existed in the 2004 elections.</p>
