Filmmaker Michael Moore and U.S. Rep. Tammy Baldwin were among those who pumped up a pro-union crowd of more than 12,000 at the Capitol on Saturday to protest Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair bill.

The crowd was substantially smaller than those on the past two Saturdays. Capitol police estimated 12,000 people gathered for the outdoor rally and that 7,385 people entered the Capitol building itself throughout the day.

Moore praised the 14 Democratic senators who left the state to block a vote on the bill, saying they'll go down in the history of labor in America.

Has Moore considered MOShell’s diet program yet?

That diet is for the peasants, not the elite. Case in point: Michelle herself.

Great idea. The unions should bring in Micheal Moore to help their image.

G-D disgusting Michelle... You and your {expletive} husband want sacrifice and ever more of the fruits of our labor. Yet you are some of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. I'd tell you exactly what to do with your elitist lobster lunch, but then this post would get pulled.

Note for those keeping score - I don't begrudge anyone enjoying a good meal. However, when that same person is calling for me to give up ever more of my lifestyle, yet is doing nothing of the sort himself or herself...yeah, that makes me angry. I'll be working/volunteering for the Palin campaign in '12...

It's a fool's parade now, kids. 1,700 jobs are going to be cut and everyone knows it. Keep stalling. And for what? So new sweetheart contracts (already signed) are not announced until after the vote? Yeah, the voters won't notice that move either (like evading responsibility by running to Illinois).

The jig is nearly up, for the voters are now with eyes wide open.

I notice she paid $150.00 for Iranian Caviar. I thought we weren’t supposed to do any business with Iran.

Micheal Moore, a multi millionaire herding the useful idiots to poverty and his dream of a Communist state. What a bunch of jerks!

Those rules are for you & me. I expect there are Havana cigars in a humidor in the Oval Office.

He saw it once.

Then he used it to wipe a 4 inch wedge of chocolate cake from the corner of his mouth.

The commie union thugs have figured out that it’s going to cost them more to buy the White House in 2012 than it cost them in 2008. They’re going to need a lot of “dues”. A lot of “dues”.

Word is that Baldwin arrived early in the morning and was determined to stay all day. She even brought a box lunch.
