Postville, Iowa Needs 400 Meat Workers -- Start Immediately

You'd think the 290 Guatemalans, 93 Mexicans, 2 Israelis and 4 Ukrainians arrested and detained in Postville, Iowa on May 12 were working at a call center.

Instead of knockers, stickers, bleeders, tail rippers, flankers, gutters, sawers, and plate boners at the nation's largest supplier of kosher beef, Agriprocessors, you'd think they were wearing demure headsets and taking overnight 800-number orders in particle board cubicles.
