Public service unions are driving dozens of states to the precipice of bankruptcy, and she calls them "brothers & sisters"? That's rich.

What kind of sibling sticks his/her hand in your pocket while he has a gun to your head? Trying to reason with these people is like trying to reason with toddlers - it doesn't work. In Wisconsin, their health contributions are but a fraction what their private sector counterparts pay, if they pay anything at all. From what Scott Walker said yesterday, many pay absolutely nothing.

Playing Mrs. Nice Guy with these repugnant thugs is not a winning strategy. States have been playing nice for decades, which is the reason they find themselves in this mess. Now is the the time to choose up sides and take the gloves off.

/yeah because Reagan didn’t play nice with his brothers in the union. You ever hear of reagan democrates? Most of them were union members......how do you think Reagan won such landslides by calling people toddlers?

Perhaps, as a Fox commentator, she is a member of a private sector union. Perhaps she trying to communicate with those public sector union members, who like herself, don't have believe in the trade union philosophy.

Scott Walker called them "good and decent public servants".

So what's the difference?
