While part of the current unrest in Wisconsin is driven by local issues, new information has been uncovered indicating an orchestrated attempt to stir up 'worker protests' not only in Wisconsin but in at least a dozen states. The coordinated effort is part of a 'revolution' spearheaded in part by a group called 'Heartland Revolution,' a Kentucky-based political action organization. The group was first envisioned by a Kentucky Democrat, John Waltz, who announced his candidacy in 2009 to oppose 2-term Republican Geoff Davis for the 4th Congressional District. Waltz was defeated in the November 2010 midterm elections but embarked on an effort to create 'revolution' throughout America, stemming from his anger toward what he terms 'the hijacking of political discourse by right-wing propagandists.' His group is invovled in the continuing Wisconsin protests of teachers unions upset over Governor Scott Walker's plan to have them pay for part of their healthcare and pension benefits, to which they currently contribute very little of the total costs.

No surprise.
I honestly can’t see the radicals denying any of this. They are proud of the anarchy they are spreading, and don’t mind if everyone knows.
Silly.

The “teachers” don’t seem to be thinking any better than the children they are supposed to tutor. Impossible is impossible. All the protests in the world won’t make 2 + 2 = 5.
Hope the Tea Party shows up at every single one.

No question, that there is a 'groundwork' being laid here. And it threatens the political order and the Constitutional order of America's universe.

The communists are on the move. America better get itself together or they may lose the freedom they think they have. It’s really sad how dumb millions of Americans are.
No worker in the US should be held hostage to unions period, compulsory union dues are unconstitutional under the first and 14th amendments, and the unions need to be stripped of their ability to steal money from workers paychecks on a national level.
If the workers love unions so much they will be happy to voluntarily send them dues, there nothing patently illegal about a POTUS issuing an executive order immediately ending withholding of union dues nationwide, and ordering the National Labor Relations Board to get a Federal Court Order enforcing the Presidents decision
Lets fight it out in the courts, and lets make it a campaign issue, with the promise to end compulsory withholding of union dues one of the first acts of the new GOP Administration.
Its stupid to allow the left(Communists) to use the same mechanism the IRS uses to fund themselves.
It’s just a matter of time before one of these “protests” gets out of hand. And that’s exactly what the union thugs want. I just hope unbiased cameras are there when it happens.
This should be an eye opener for the general public who these leeches are sucking the financial blood from. Now is the time for for Tea Party and conservatives and independents to show there are more people in this Nation besides communist feather bedders.
