Who do Mr. Leather's organizers think they are? Dominique Strauss-Kahn?

Fetisheers Take On Union In Chicago. "Take on?" I mean, seriously. Some hotel maids don't want to clean the floors on their hands and knees, and Mr. Leather, as an organization, can't extend a helping hand? WTF?

To be fair, I’ve got some sympathy for the Mr. Leather organizers; after all, they’re not banksters, so contracts and the rule of law apply to them. And apparently there’s a $700K penalty for breaking the contract with Hyatt.

That said, (a) who signed the contract with a union-busting hotel chain in the first place, and (b) why isn’t the discussion how to get out of the contract and what chain to go with next?
