Chocolate Jesus Comes to Milwaukee
OK, I just watched the local news and totally missed it! Can someone please send me a link to the protesters that were out at Masterlock shouting "shame, shame, shame"? You know, the freak show that began in Madison when Governor Walker passed legislation (yeah, passed legislation cuz his party controls both houses) to have public workers start paying towards their health care and retirement. Why would they protest at an event the chosen one spoke at? Well, he did exactly the same thing, didn't he? The farcical budget he recently dropped in congress' proverbial lap contained nearly identical language to Wisconsin's budget repair bill. That's right, he doesn't have to ask Federal employees to contribute more, he can just tell them they're gonna! They don't have collective bargaining. Must feel good to have that tool to help stop the ever burgeoning debt that's crushing us from National down to local levels. Ask Tom Barrett, Milwaukee Mayor, how awesome it was to have the tools provided by Walker's leadership to help balance his budget. You'll really need to prod him though, he kinda shys away from that one. Yeah, I must've totally missed all those unionista protesters, 99% ers, and public employee blue fisters. I'll do some more surfin', it's got to be here somewhere.
