The minimal applause could not be heard due to the mittens.

Are you kidding me with the misleading headline? “Famous” rockers? And they cite Tom Morrello from Rage Against the Machine? Come the hell on! His group basically was a rapper who could not sing, who spoke commie-infused protest lyrics over some distorted guitar noises. Oooooo, “famous” rocker, my ass.

These hippies are over 40 years too stale, and the new Tea Party conservative influence is not your father’s GOP. Rock off!

The last dying gasp of the has-beens. Wherever there are cameras you can count on Jesse Jackson and any has-been musicians or actors to show up.

There’s a new “machine” now (vox redneck) and it’s raging against him and his fellow travelers.

Isn't it kinda funny to see the people who got rich from our "evil capitalist system" whine and complain about it.

I guess Wisconsin has been too embarrassed over the decades to bill itself as the “Union State” but from what I’ve recently been told, that’s just what it is. It would be quite a symbolic squish to have it even reined in in that place.

Rage Against the Machine? If you consider screaming into a mic with distorted background noise.... music, I guess you might be a union member.

Only to Democrats, would elected Democrats running away from failure be considered a good thing.

Most of these people are just looking for more popularity and screw the cause.

Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine galvanizes Wisconsin protesters

Five thousand people squeezed into the Monona Terrace exhibition hall to hear Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine and Wayne Kramer of the MC5 curse Walker’s plan to undercut public employee unions. Walker got called every name in the book – “motherfucker,” “asshole” – but the acoustic show was still overwhelmingly peaceful and positive.

Rage Against the Machine is to music what Government School Teachers are to education.

Perfect match.

The first thing I saw this morning on my local news was a headline saying that public sector unions are tired of being targeted everytime the state budget needs to be cut.

Well you morons, its not my fault you had to infect everything we can see.
