Teh left is being captured by the radical hard left fringe groups..We saw it in Arkansas last year, where the unions blew $ 5 mill trying to dump Blanche Lincoln...

In Wisconsis, where the union leadership is very radical, once the issue gained national prominence, the fringes started agitating for a recall and the regular left had to go all in. I suspect that most national leaders aren't happy..because it won't work...and that a lot of $$$ to toss away..

FUNNY...

Rise of the Planet of the Apes comes out today. What a strange twist of fate, when you think about it.

It is my hope that some white person, pulled from their car by one of the hordes of Black people assaulting innocent fair-goers all around them, had the same thought that Charlton Heston did in the original Planet of the Apes.

Reince Priebus. With a name like that, you’ll throw like a girl.

Sheriff Joe would stop this criminal activity very quickly. Perhaps the Wisconsin authorities should consult with him.

I think those were their pupils.

If you want to be a thug, learn from the “best”-—government union goons.

Same as it ever was. It has been decades, now, that the GOP has been AWOL in the political trenches. They know the Left - Democrats, media, etc. - have been aligned against them forever and a day, yet they never have an answer to this endless propaganda. Maybe 20 years ago, before the Internet was so heavily used, their hopelessness may have been somewhat warranted. But now, there is no excuses. If they aren't able to get their message out, then they aren't trying hard enough. Meanwhile, Obama is looking at other social media sites to get his message out, ones that aren't named Twitter or Facebook. Which side is on top of the game right now?

Can’t spell it - something like Rice Krispies!

I will tell you that I have yet to see anything in my voluminous direct mail that I get from various Republican groups and office seekers that have his name attached. Haley Barbour and Michael Steele were very visible during their tenures. The guy - to my mind - is a complete waste!

I doubt that one out of a hundred of them even know what that means or even know if it’s Latin, or even know what Latin is........................

The sad thing is like my teacher friend told me. They are/were protesting because they were getting 100% healthcare and bennies/ WAY above average pay PAID FOR BY TAXPAYERS. Now they get what normal people get 80/20 health insurance and normal pay.Instead of being lucky THEY HAVE JOBS they feel it’s rightious to protest like a mob.

They have been brainwashed to believe they are owed more than the commoners. They have the entitlement mentality. Just like bears in the national parks. The signs say DO NOT FEED THE BEARS for a reason..................

The irony is that the current national GOP leader is the guy that fixed Wisconsin and got Walker elected in the first place. He seemed to do a good job with the gov’s race and the senate race (Johnson). But he certainly doesn’t hog the spotlight, that is for sure.

Hey, Vigilanteman....you have won the MinuteGal mini-quiz! You were the first (and only) one to complete the daunting task of remembering the name of the GOP National Chairman, Reince Priebus, oh yeah, and posting it! And you get bonus points for spelling it correctly....that took guts!

Good man!

For your supreme mental effort, MinuteGal is donating $10 in your honor and in your name to the FReepathon. You shall be pinged to the thread.

Thanks for participating in this challenging quiz, LOL.
