In the end the will of the people will prevail and the unions will lose their rights to hold the WI government hostage. These people can protest until everyone who works for the state is unemployed, they aren't going to change what is going to happen.

Don't think so.

48% Back GOP Governor in Wisconsin Spat, 38% Side With Unions - Rasmussen Reports™

If American stood behind the unions, that rally across the nation would have brought out many, many thousands, which it didn't. In fact, everywhere but WI, it was a total bust.

The American people KNOW how much unions are screwing them.

Um.....you don't see the GOP in WI or Walker backing down, do you?

Oh, don't bother putting up the CBS and PPP polls - they are so skewed towards dems and the unions, they are worthless.

Don't worry sanrene, we're on the winning side it's evident in the way the liberals on C-D are getting desperate and excusing the violent behavior and rhetoric of all the videos we posted up, not to mention the major fizzle of the pro-union rally

There is no shame in voting the will of the people.

What is shameful (and very telling) is the Police not enforcing the civility by requiring protestors to do their screaming behind barricades rather than as a mob.

What is shameful is this administrations efforts from the very TOP fueling and inciting those mobs rather than calling for civility from on high.

He's as much a thug as those are in the streets.

Disgusting display of the TRUE behavior of the unions and their supporters.

And one of the most destructive human 'rights' is using union planted politicians in public office to garner union pay/medical/pension freebies paid for by the taxpayer.

Lay them off, give them their 99 weeks and they can then feel what nearly 20% of American's from EVERY station in life are currently experiencing.

They had their chance to ride into town on the democratic/socialist white horse to 'save' the unions.

I say recall their voted mandate to serve as representatives of their constituents, run new elections and get responsible people in office.

Fire the bastids. And reneg on their pay AND pensions.

This should help their cause.

A democrat representative had to save him from the pack of rabid dogs.

These loons might end of killing someone.

Yeah, cameras ARE rolling, says the union thug.

This is just friggin ugly.



Middle-aged hippies suck.

I'm guessing they don't pick up their trash.
