Scott Walker and the Wisconsin economy. (Bradley, Union: homes, job market, buying)

It's up to the rest of us to save American democracy; and we will.

The irony of this post is too delicious to pass up without commenting.

Politics is interesting and it would be great to be able to intelligently discuss the topic. But it might take going to a debate at Harvard Law School or a similar venue to hear other points of view discussed sans personal attacks from right-wingers. And in my mind it's beyond that now anyway. I'm not interested in listening to their bull****. Every time Romney comes on the TV I mute it.

I respect the courage of the Occupy patriots working to save the country, and I support the unions working to save the middle and working classes, and those in the Democratic Party working to do the same. God bless those working in Wisconsin against the GOP assault.

I'm sure you've seen this; an interesting read:

LOL! This can not be a serious post.

I do not live in Wisconsin but I have many friends that do. All of them as far as I I know want Walker to stay in office. Here is a link to a column articulating why: GOP Whistling Past the End of America - Ann Coulter - Townhall Conservative Columnists - Page 1

You don't agree that propaganda works? Advertising is propaganda and it appears to work quite well. Companies and candidates wouldn't spend huge sums of money on it if it didn't.

Kandy will probably answer on his/her behalf but I suspect the comment is geared towards the rest of your ridiculous statement comparing Hitler and Walker and your belief that Unions are fighting to save you.

The more accurate comparison is Union Mentality and Hilter. Public Union thugs have no care for anyone but their corrupt little system.

Fortunately, it appears in their ignorance, they may have shot themselves in the foot. After next Tuesday, elected leaders and the public throughout the country will know that Public Unions are paper tigers that can easily be beaten back. Maybe a new era of fiscal sanity will come out of this.

Good job - Unionistas!

I see the Economy improving and I like how Walker goes to small and large businesses to show the support he can give them for being in Wisconsin

When the Nazis were voted into power, they outlawed trade unions. They used the police to beat their political opponents (see 'Occupy Wall Street'). They verbally condemned socialists, and of course later put them into concentration camps and prisons (the prison industry needs to be fed, after all). They engaged in voter suppression. Get it yet?

Unions are working on behalf of all Americans to save the middle and working classes, and will continue to do so. They can't be stopped by Walker or the Koch brothers or ALEC or any other greedhead organization.
