It’s going to be a very ugly day in Wisconsin.
A crowd of 5,000 union protestors swarmed the state Capitol in Madison shattered windows and barricaded themselves inside amid calls for a “class war” after news got out that Senate Republicans had circumvented a Democratic blockade of a bill curbing state union power.
“This is war. This is a class war that has been leveled against the working people of this country,” Moore told anchor Rachel Maddow.
Some labor leaders are calling for a day of unrest and want teachers to again walk off the job in protest of the move.

I’m so pleased to see how the “new civility” in politics is working out.
Time for the National Guard to protect the Capital building. The police, union members, obviously don’t care.
Make sure there are plenty of cameras there.
Stay cool. Don’t start anything. We’re winning this huge. There’s no need for anyone on our side to get physical.
Best idea would be to stay away, unless you’re going in order to take pictures.
The hell of it is, Fox News barely covered the story as it was unfolding. O’Reilly blabbered on with his usual spiel without any breaking news during the portion I was able to stomach. CNN and MSNBC were all over it, but not in a fair and balanced way. And of course everyone knows *they* don’t “lie”.
How many teachers were “sick” today?
But it was not lost on local reporters that it was more than a little churlish for people who have been hiding in Illinois motels for nearly a month to block legislative action to be lecturing anyone about procedural niceties.
Two words.
NATIONAL
GUARD
Note to the left: Keep digging....
They are feeding on themselves by now. Recycling taxpayer money—out of their pay into the next year’s pay. Pretty ridiculous.
On a related note, these people really are idiots. They remind me of Peter Boyles Joe character on a barstool in the movie Joe.
If this isn’t enough to get “Billy-Bob” to put down his beer, hop out of his pick-up ang Go Vote next time, then I believe America will be history. Of course, voting only matters if it’s an honest election. Will any of these protesters be among those who Count the votes?
Well there are options. We don’t want to turn a huge victory in to a reversal just because a bunch of hippie protesters don’t understand CIVILITY.
HVAC contractors often test duct systems with smoke...might be a good day to do that...I bet you’d see the place empty out in a matter of minutes.
It’s important to have tornado and fire drills, too - tis the season...
And there’s always the big speakers and Barney music.
Then "bring it" Michael, you fat slob of a commie. Any one with half-a-brain can see through your socialist tirades and rants. You've been nothing more than a pariah and anti-constitutional slime whose hypocritical life embodies the far left who kiss your sorry A$$. IMO, they should arrest and convict any out-of-stater who decides to cause insurrection, along with your lame excuse for a life, in Wisconsin, over state rights matters.
They really think signs and acting like barbarians is going to stop these guys?
It’s far to late for that.
Their poor example of dissent only hardens views.
The tea parties never engaged in this type of behavior and through passionate, yet lawful examples, swayed people to their side.
The republicans are playing this perfectly in my opinion. The unions are slowly but surely destroying themselves. As the money starts to run out they’ll become cannibals.
Be prepared for union violence, if not now, pretty soon -
as soon as they figure out that they’re going to lose everything they’ve gained through political thuggery,
they’ll resort to physical thuggery.
Not deep thinkers, these folks who depend on and feel entitled to your tax money.
This is MOB rule, no different than the Vietnam war protests, civil unrest, and riots. The mobs were wrong then; they are wrong now. Social change via mob rule does not work on a lasting basis because it has no foundation. Martin Luther King got it right, but nothing since.
