COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Crowds of public employees protesting a sweeping Ohio proposal to strip unions of collective bargaining rights are wearing red in an effort to steer public opinion away from the idea that unions are all-Democrat organizations.
The move came as union protests by firefighters, teachers, police and state workers were joined by a smaller number of tea party activists who support the legislation. The measure would end collective bargaining and replace negotiated salary schedules with merit raises.
NBC4's Patrick Preston said there was standing room only in the Statehouse Thursday morning and there was a line to enter.
He said there are far more people in attendance Thursday than Tuesday, including hundreds of supporters among the protesters.

That's because the bosses within the system are selected for ability to kiss butt ~ and are never penalized for failure to manage, or for wasting money.
No boss in any government agency is ever rewarded or punished based on performance of their organizational elements.
Exactly. And they lie they have no tea party people and fireman are generally volunteer up North. So I call BS!
I would not doubt it. Obama is spending BILLIONS on his Hitler campaign of BS.
Ohio Tea Party is there!
Hundreds of protesters and Tea Party activists were expected at the Statehouse in Columbus today — and they arrived.
About 500 Tea Party supporters along with more than 1,000 teachers and other public employees showed up in full force as senators gathered to hear additional testimony on the controversial Senate Bill 5.
The demonstrations were peaceful, but loud and boisterous. Members of the Ohio Education Association were chanting that “teachers are united and will never be defeated” and accusing Tea Party members of “hating children, firefighters and policemen.”
Tea Party backers were chanting that they are defending taxpayers.
Notice that the teachers unions are absent. It’s been illegal for school teachers to strike in Ohio for over 30 years. They have no skin in this fight so they are sitting this one out. How’s that for union solidarity?
And this does that how?
This reminds me that scene in Monty Python's Life of Brian:
Brian: "You're all different."
Crowd: "We're all different."

The Tennessee Senate voted yesterday to strip collective bargaining rights from government employees. It did not make such a news splash because Tennessee is a Right to Work state.

This is fascism in action.
This is what you get when a “community organizer” is elected president and the man who gets to see him more than anybody is Andy Stern the head of SEIU.
I was thinking about Beck’s views on this earlier today. This has the potential to be the beginning of some clashes we have not seen since the Vietnam war era. It could get out of hand, and quickly.
Awesome!!
Ohio State red.
They are also all ga-ga over the Egypt demonstrations...so they want a go at that themselves. The leftists never change.
From this article, “Crowds of public employees protesting a sweeping Ohio proposal to strip unions of collective bargaining rights..”
Then another article from an ANSWER article, “trying to stop Gov. Scott Walker and his allies from passing legislation designed to strip public-sector workers of collective bargaining rights, and to bust their unions.”
Hmm, strip of collective bargaining rights magically appears in both articles. Nope, no coordinated effort there.....
