psst...it's definitely, speaking of teachers. You admit to associating with provocateurs? Another hint here, that's likely illegal ~ Preparing for the Night of the Long Knives, are you ~
Provocateurs? The leftist are the provocateurs. We will just be recording their actions and words. You don't have a problem with that do you?
I smell desperation in the air on the part of the unions.
They KNOW the American people are sick and tired of paying for their lavish pay, benefits and free HC.
Let them protest all they want, likely won't do any good.
Bzzzt.
". . .the state's fiscal bureau -- the Wisconsin equivalent of the Congressional Budget Office -- concluded that Wisconsin isn't even in need of austerity measures, and could conclude the fiscal year with a surplus. In fact, they say that the current budget shortfall is a direct result of tax cut policies Walker enacted in his first days in office."
The extreme end of the R party has gone too far this time, and they've managed to really tick off a big chunk of middle class voters. People in this country have complained about how apathetic the middle class is--and they have been up until now. Not any more. I think these protests are just the beginning, and they're going to make the tea party look like a blip on the radar.
How wrong you are (the left usually is) These ungrateful radical teachers have all those middle class people out scrambling for babysitters so they do not lose their jobs. The talk in the coffee shops around here is NOT on the side of these leftist thugs.
It is now February 20th and your boys are learning a few lessons about making too many assumptions and basing their actions on those assumptions. He will end up paying for his stupidity with his career. Watch and Learn.

He's not "my boy", he is the fairly elected gov. of WI and the people who elected him voted for him to do his job, not bow down to a bunch of idiot union thugs. Since this started he hasn't backed down one bit and I don't expected to see that starting any time soon.

Exactly!
What are the parents of these kids supposed to do? They need to work and their children need to be educated, but the selfish, ungrateful teachers could care less about anything other than themselves.
The lying lefties sure do not want it to get out that people are upset with thugs.
How funny. My son told me he got a "Face Book" event for a rally in Austin for teachers.
I guess they are spamming facebook accounts for support.
I'm sure they're gathering every warm body they can find to stuff on a bus, give some lunch and hand a sign. Have you seen these SEIU protesters that they bus around to these events? They're the epitome of the hand out lifestyle. I say let em waste their money busing idiots around and feeding them, they deserve to lose their battle broke and tired.
Everyone seems to think they know our budget problem.
Wisconsin is facing a $3.6 BILLION shortfall in the next biennium. We owe our good neighbors to our west, Minnesota, almost $60 million in reciprocity payments. The past administration and legislature stole $200 million from the Injured Patients Compensation Fund. The Supreme Court has ruled that this is not our money but that it belongs to medical professionals who contributed to the fund. Interest charges to the state are accumulating at a rate of $80,000 per DAY! Medicaid is currently underfunded by $153 million. WE have a huge financial problem in Wisconsin.
