Serial Pregnancy Gets Woman Arrested

   I met one of the victims of this woman in the following story when I was living in the Tampa Bay area, which is why I am presenting this piece.

    Meet Samantha Harris, age 27. she has accused at least 6 men of getting her pregnant, at different times. Two of those men, she conned into marry her, by not only lying about being pregnant, by by also telling at least one of them that she had an inheritance coming, among other things.      Source

     Tampa philanthropist Don Wallace was accused of molesting Harris as a child as well as being the father of her child.

      Wallace denounced the allegations, and a DNA test earlier this year absolved him of the paternity issue

Harris has one daughter, 6-year-old Sabrina. Before accusing Wallace of fathering the child, Harris led another man to believe that he was the girl's father. A DNA test more than five years after Sabrina's birth proved that he was not, records show.

  As it turns out, this woman has mental issues, and a few others as well.

  My mouse doesn't want to cooperate with me, so I send you here for the remainder of the story.

Republic Windows and Doors Has Factory Sit-in By Fired Workers

   A company closing its doors and firing its workers is no big surprise in the Republican/Bush economy. What is surprising though is that some 200 or so workers not only showed up to get their final paycheck, but they also had a sit-in in the factory.

  The United Electrical Workers were told on Wednesday that they would be jobless and the workers are protesting the firings since they did not receive a 60 day notice, which is required by federal law. The workers had also been told that they would not be getting their due vacation pay either.       

   This fiasco is being blamed on Bank of America, who apparently told the company that its best option was to close its door because the company could not get its line of credit from the bank any longer.      Source

  So, the workers went in Friday and decided to occupy the building until they are assured that they will be getting their vacation and severance pay.

   Workers also were angered when company officials didn't show up for a meeting Friday that had been arranged by U.S. Rep Luis Gutierrez, a Chicago Democrat.

  So the company broke the law by not giving workers their 60 day notice of a massive layoff. The company is attempting to steal both vacation pay and owed severance pay from its workers.

   Are we sure that this outfit isn't being run by George Bush and his cronies? It does have their trademark on it.
