Wisconsin 14 - Thuganomics 101

This blogs intent is to put forth my feelings on this whole debacle going on in the state of Wisconsin.

In the 10 years I've paid attention to the political scene, I've never witnessed such cowardice as we've witnessed from these 14 Democratic state senators. I guess their motto is, when the going gets tough runaway. Imagine if every state had representatives who did that. Nothing would get done. If Republicans were obstructionist for using the filibuster the last two years, then what does that make these Democrats. For me I'd say they were being derelict. And it pleases me that a resolution was just passed that calls for their arrest. In my op ion, these men and women have no place serving in government(local,state, or federal). Hopefully with passage of this resolution the 14 will be arrested shortly and this whole mess can be put behind us with Governor Walker's Budget Bill passing.

Now onto the protesters themselves. In the words of Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, these protesters are what I'd called AstroTurf. This is a organized movement set up by the major players, ie SEIU, and AFL-CIO. They do not represent the majority of Americans. The only reason that it seems they do is because the Lame Stream Media is in bed with them. And I can back that claim to be sure. Just look at the difference between the media's coverage of the Tea Party and the thugs up in Madison, Wisconsin. With the Tea Party the media had to seek out the few nutty people with inappropriate signs and then tried to tarnish the entire group because those few nuts. Compare that to the union thugs in Wisconsin, it doesn't take very long to find the nuts and the inappropriate signs. And you know why? Because they're everywhere. It doesn't matter what network you watch(ABC,NBC,CBS,Fox News, CNN). It just doesn't matter because the union protesters are made up of mostly nutty people. Nutty people who compare the Governor to Hitler and Mubarak, who surround law makers and bring live ammo to the state capital. Yet it's the Tea Partiers who are dangerous? Imagine if we lived in a world where the media still had journalistic standards and integrity how this whole mess might have been averted. Alas we don't live in such a world. And as a result we have whining children running away from their responsibilities and thugs trying to intimidate those we elected democratically from putting our house in order. Shame on all of them.

One last thing, in the fall of 2009 I remember the Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi giving a press conference. In this press conference I saw her crying while telling a story about how the rhetoric of the Tea Party reminded her a lot of the violence that came about from the 60's. Now here is what I'd like to know. Where is she now? Where is Nancy Pelosi, when there is actual evidence of violent rhetoric and actions coming from these union thugs. Where? Oh never mind, I think I can answer my own question. The reason she is no where to be found is because she too is in bed with the unions. She receives a lot of campaign money from them. Therefore she won't bite the hand that feeds her. But even if she wasn't I find it hard to believe she'd come out against them. She has to uphold the traditional Double Standards the Democratic Party and Lame Stream Media cherish.

So a special shame on her for Nancy "I still wish I was Speaker" Pelosi.

Until Next Time,
