capitalism is not left or right, it is an economic system.

Agreeing or disagreeing with it does not make someone left or right.

You're absolutely right...I didn't mean to steer the thread this way because it allows detractors to change the topic...which is really about Democrats criminalizing political differences.

IMHO Democrats just couldn't believe Scott Walker won in Wisconsin, and turned to prosecutors to unleash hell and retribution on Walker supporters. "At least 29 conservative groups have been targeted in the nearly two-year probe digging for alleged violations of campaign finance and coordination laws in Wisconsin’s 2011 and 2012 recall elections." Lawsuits looming in Wisconsin's crumbling John Doe probe? - Watchdog.org

Using John Doe laws, they went after Walker supporters, kicking in doors in the middle of the night to intimidate and terrify. As one woman put it - "She ran to the door, opened it, and then chaos. “People came pouring in. For a second I thought it was a home invasion. It was terrifying. They were yelling and running, into every room in the house. One of the men was in my face, yelling at me over and over and over.†Wisconsin's Shame:

Democrats even tipped off reporters, making sure the media was there to witness the event. Who was the reporter outside Cindy Archer's house? - Watchdog.org

So we have the collusion of a corrupt Democratic prosecutor, a corrupt judge and the willing participation of the MSM, just to harass Walker supporters. This is today's liberal America. Nice job folks.

Don't let the lefties pull this off topic with minutia. This Wisconsin "John Doe" story is the most frightening thing I've ever heard.

Where is the NY Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, etc?

Toe-Tagging John Doe - WSJ

Wisconsin's Shame:

Can you imagine the screaming if the Bush Administration or any Republican Governor had done this?

So far the media appears to be complicit in this story.

I guess I'm going to be complicit too until I see some more meat to the story.

Keep in mind that the feds have taken out and jailed democrats in my home state of Illinois for decades....so crying political targeting is going to take something substantive rather than blogs and crying media bias.

They took Democrats out in your state because they were, ummm, wait for it....CRIMINALS! What criminal actions did the people in Wisconsin do and were they elected officials like in your state?

Agreed, playing the equivalency card in this case makes a mockery of prosecutorial abuse in Wisconsin.
