Thugs take over the Wisconsin Capital

It seems that if you can't win the election and your take over of the capital does not work then you block the legislators from getting to the Chamber to vote. I guess if you are liberal then it is not mob rule. It seems that the protesters feel they don't have to follow the rules. It was reported on the news this morning the police may not remove the protesters from the Capitol so that the Assembly can meet and vote on the Collective Bargaining Bill, and the Governor may have to call up the National Guard to do the job. This is just what the Union Bosses want so that we see soldiers dragging protesters out of the capital. I have yet to hear one of the protesters tell me just what they are giving up under this bill. All I hear is they are taking my rights away, but not what those rights are. Even Michael Moore could not communicate what rights they were giving up.

Michael Moore is a prat and a hypocrite who used non-union labor on his last documentary film. Then he rushes off to Wisconsin to stand with the unions that even he didn't want to pay the inflated wages of. Typical. They are dragging them out now. About time. Once they stop being peaceful and decide they are in control, it's time to remove them. It's a dangerous situation for those inside the building, anyone trying to get in or out and for the police who have to watch out for weapons or violence in a crowd that is massive and without clear leadership.

Seriously? I didn't know that about Moore. I mean, I knew he was a big-spending schmuck and went against a lot of what he preaches about, like Gore's earth-saving house using more electricity than my entire neighborhood. The more I learn about these do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do leftists, the more it becomes clear that this particular brand of liberalism (or whatever you want to call it, of course) isn't an ideology you personally hold. It's an ideology you push on other people - rules for everyone else to live by while you climb above the fray and shout down orders to follow. If that's not it, then I'll need another explanation for these folks being dirty capitalist entrepreneur, non-union-using, volunteer-abusing pigs in their private lives but telling the world to shine it all around in their public lives.

What is even funnier is that the American Federation of Teachers raised a stink about it, even refusing free tickets to the screening of the movie because Moore hired non-union labor to make it. From the New York Post: Michael Moore, champion of the working class, used non-union stagehands to film "Capitalism: A Love Story." The porcine provocateur is promoting his anti-Wall Street jeremiad by giving free tickets to unions, but the American Federation of Teachers has turned them down because Moore didn’t hire any members of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees. "Michael Moore and one of our sister unions, IATSE, are in discussions about concerns the union has," the AFT told ABC News. "The AFT has decided against accepting tickets until those issues are resolved."

That's a riot. I'm not surprised in the slightest though. He's well known for his hypocrisy, but the idiots that worship him are somehow blind to it. Just to be sure nobody complains about your missing link http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/item_sCK9AXSEsqhAtwpyoUkv5K

What is it Obama said in 2010? "We won"? http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0109/17862.html I've heard it said: The surest way to piss off a conservative is to tell a lie about him. The surest way to piss off a liberal is to tell the truth. Unions are scum, and their actions are only incriminating them more.
