When I woke up this morning to get ready for my "private sector" job, I turned on the TV just in time to see the house pubs walking out of the chamber in single file as the dem rats screamed "shame, shame, shame, shame." I thought for a moment, those evil pubs *sarc* just took a page out of the rats playbook.

Needless to say, I had a BIG grin from ear to ear all the way on my commute to work.

At last! This is the way to play the democrat games against them. Keep kicking them until they are on the ground and then keep kicking them to make sure they don’t get back up.

Civility my ass.

It’s good to see the Republicans not just standing firm, but getting on with it. I wonder when the Democrats are going to realize how ridiculous they are running and hiding and then getting upset that life goes on without them.

Rights? They have the right to extort money from people through taxes, and then launder that money back to their political robots who do their bidding? When did they get the right to do that?

[worst-case scenario]

They sure showed them! They didn’t even give the Democrats time to vote before they declared the vote.

That’s the way to do it.... if you know that the Dems aren’t going to be able to win, why even let them vote?

"Thank you, you sucker-taxpayers, for letting us unionize so we can keep taking your taxpayer money to pay our UNION DUES, so we can give it to our DEMOCRAT PARTY!!!. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"

No bias in headline. /sarc

[econjack]

But the political standoff over the bill - and the monumental protests at the state Capitol against it - appear far from over.

This is the kind of journalism that really pi$$es me off. Can this "journalist" give me an operational definition of "monumental" as used here, or was this word simply chosen for the emotions it evokes? It's sad that journalists have forgotten that their job is to report the news, not proffer their own agenda.

The Dems said it well: “democracy can’t be dictated”. But it can and should be played to the fullest extent of the rules.

Here’s hoping the losers of the game look just like the Obama Administration in the next elections (which may be sooner than we think!)

Wis. Assembly passes bill taking away union rights because Republicans drown kittens and pull wings off flies for fun.

Might as well go all the way with the bias in that headline.

Saw the video. The democrats have been reduced from a political party to rebellious mob of sixties hippie protester wanna be's, that make absolute infantile jackasses of themselves, that are quickly turning our country into Northern Mexico. At their own pleasure. "TO PROTECT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, FROM ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN AND D O M E S T I C"

[Homer_J_Simpson]

. . . as the dem rats screamed "shame, shame, shame, shame."

Well, knock me over with a feather. I never would have guessed they knew the meaning of the word.

[libertylover]

Republicans in the Wisconsin Assembly took the first significant action on their plan to strip collective bargaining rights from most public workers,

Should say collective bargaining privileges, but then we don't really expect honesty from the AP.

THEY ARE NOT “RIGHTS”. They are negotiated contract benefits. They are PRIVILEGES. They can be taken away. They can be reduced. They can be changed.

They are not RIGHTS.
