Stern to resign!

...but where will he go? Why is he leaving? And who will replace him? Isn't he going to stick around for the Great Member Exodus of 2010? Don't punk out on us now, this is just getting interesting! Perhaps he's going to work for Perez Obama as more than just a member of the debt commission. Very exciting possibility here, stay tuned to Tasty, Perez and yours truly to keep abreast of this unfolding drama!

Could it be he just can't stand losing money, members and labor allies left and right?

So there you have it folks: for whatever reason labor's sore thumb has finally looked back at his legacy of union busting/raiding, member dues money wasting, EFCA-killing, sellout contract promoting ways and has decided to move on to spend more time with his family. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek, what a lame excuse for running from the house of labor he set on fire! Good riddance, loser.
