The political run-on

Would you believe that on the day Space Shuttle Discovery links up on its final flight with the International Space Station -- 26+ years after first launch in 1984 -- at a place in space where the former Soviet Union, the United States of America, Canada, Japan, and a number of representatives of the European Union have come together on orbit above our planet to work together as one team for the benefit of knowledge and humanity, taking along the first humanoid robot ever put to work in outer space -- policemen, firemen, social workers, teachers, and many other types of citizens are gathering in state capitals around the country hoping to convince Republicans-in-charge that killing public labor unions is not in the best interest of American workers?
