If that's the case, then why are they so anti-labor; case in point, the new overtime regs passed just a couple weeks ago? Why are they so pro-outsource if they 'for the middle class'?

No, the GOP is the party of the rich and powerful; as such, the need to suppres the middle class in order to maximuze profit. They play the jingoistic 'kill the arabs' card to get the redneck vote, and the tax cut card to get the middle class vote, even though those voters don't really get the to share in the spoils - they just think they do.
