"How'd it get so bad in Wisconsin" JUST heard on Morning Blo
as they talk about the Unions giving up some of their benefits. It's on because I'm at my Sweetie's and she has it on.


How deaf can Joey Scar be? Pretty deaf. While the rest of the network gets it, he keeps the talking points going.

1. Flipped it on to see what the coverage was like and the had to
switch it off. They were blathering about the sweetheart deal the public employees had in that they don't pay anything right now for their benefits. What about the fact that they are trying to get rid of collective bargaining? Any mention of that?

3. JoeBlow is a LIAR.
We have shared the burden! We do DO contribute to our health insurance! We had a our wages frozen BEFORE the recession hit! Once the recession hit, we took PAY CUTS!

2. Joe's selling jealousy that's the expected party line
The truth about how Walker jury-rigged a budget crisis in order to create a cover for union busting is being reported in every Wisconsin online paper I've visited.

I'm not so worried about the impact of MJ.

4. The Bush tax cuts were extended, Joe
And I haven't heard anyone in the Wiscosin Governor's office discussing cutting THEIR benefits!

5. Maybe one of those union members behind the cameras can drop a spotlight on Joe's desk

By accident, of course.
