Is it wrong to ask about this? How about expecting full disclosure about labor-related matters, specifically union-busting (Wal-Mart is #1 at it, after all)? Is that being unreasonable?

1. She was on the Ark. based company board with Sam's anti union attitude but also with Sam's

help the employee attitude (Walmart did not change until Sam died and by then she was off the board.

Hillary is noted for her fighting for better employment conditions - and in particular pushing Sam to give women a fair shake in all levels of the operation.

Hillary can be proud of her time on the Walmart board (although I wish she had fought Sam over his anti-union attitude - but I note my approach to these issues in management meetings resulted in quite a few instances where I "moved on" to a new employer)

They check their facts like, say, freepers.
