Police say the largest crowd yet descended on Wisconsin's Capitol to protest cuts to public worker collective bargaining rights yesterday. Protests have rocked the Capitol almost every day since Governor Scott Walker unveiled his proposal. But Madison police estimate the crowd of 85,000 to 100,000 by late afternoon as the largest.
More and more people in Wisconsin are waking up and realizing the BIG MISTAKE they made by voting in the Republican Governor Scott Walker.
Maybe this is a good thing as people are realizing that the GOP feeds lies and bullshit during a campaign then robs the wealth from the citizens after they get in office.
Here is a thought for all you Green Bay Packer fans in Wisconsin or any team fan across the country. Why is it you will hear complaints from the Ultra Conservatives against the Teacher’s Union but not a word from the NFL Player’s Union in talks with the Team Owners which is threatening a strike for next season? Is it NFL Player’s Union GOOD and Teacher’s Unions BAD?
Congrats again to the workers and people of Wisconsin for making the whole country realize how evil and threatening the current conservative teabagger Republican agenda against workers is to all of us! Go for it workers, and run Walker and his corporatist pals right out of office!
ReplyDeleteI have had all of the recall web addresses on my blog for a week.
ReplyDeleteThe most frustrating thing is the lack of media coverage. When they even have bothered to report on this, they have consistently mis reported crowd sizes and really have avoided much of the outrageous lies and manipulation by Walker.
It is as if they are waiting for an "incident" to create a sensationalist atmosphere for them to jump/
The most remarkable incident is that this sustained movement has lasted so log, with such a physical presence without any real incidents.
On Mudrakes blog, you see how desparate theOuter Transeppistanian is working to create the appearance of unruly incidents to smear the movement with. Lies and distortions, that's all the they have...oh, yeah and a few billion dollars.....

Hello Jack,
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear people are turning out but like Microdot has said, I am afraid that most of the country is apathetic about this issue.....and we all will suffer in the long run.
Is it NFL Player’s Union GOOD and Teacher’s Unions BAD?
ReplyDeleteTo the moronic right-wing, EXACTLY. But then, who knows what goes on in those fart-laden heads?
