MADISON, WI - MARCH 12: (L - R) Wisconsin State Sen. Fred Risser, Dave Hansen, and Mark Miller speak to the press after returning to Madison to attend a rally March 12, 2011 in Madison, Wisconsin. The senators were three of 14 state senators who left the state for more than three weeks to avoid voting on Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair bill which essentially eliminated collective bargaining rights for state workers.

MADISON, WI - MARCH 12: A farmer drives his tractor past the Wisconsin State Capitol during a rally March 12, 2011 in Madison, Wisconsin.

25. I have a real soft spot for farmers, since my earliest days in rural MO

and happy times on my grandfather's small farm. Seeing those guys on their tractors made me cry. Damn I am emotional lately....:blush: But, damned proud of them.

I'd rather talk to farmers about their tractors than to race car drivers about their F1 race cars any day!!

38. our signs are better than the Koch Brothers' signs n/t

[66 dmhlt]

42. Plus funnier and more clever,too ...

An oldie but goodie slogan from the Dairy state that morphed into an even better sign carried by a farmer:

Hey, Scott Walker - Come Smell My Dairy Air!

Not that there's any hope Walker or his idiot Teabagger minions would ever get the joke. (Sorry, no screenshot of the sign, but here's the button)
