I'm always skeptical of big "switches", where the teams decide to trade sock colors and names. For example, one team claims that happened with regard to civil rights, but as far as I can tell, no such switch occurred.

With regard to unions though, that does surprise me. I'll withhold my opinion about this, and what I think of unions in general.

Not sure what SNL is doing, as I haven't found it to be entertaining for about 15 years. I was more of a Mad TV type of viewer (and comic book reader). Brett and Heather recently talked about commentary that would hold up to a fact-check, but only because it was not substantive. In other words; lots of talk without saying anything.
