Here’s the video.
Grothman was on The Last Word today with Lawrence O’Donnell and told the host that the protesters staying in the Wisconsin capitol building were slobs. True.

Oh, don’t worry about it.
There’s a new civility in politics. The Left told me so!

Those thuggish bastards will lynch the next non-progressive they abduct. I assure you NO ACTION will be taken, prosecution is discretionary dontcha know!

Actions like this will only get worse until that Kenyan fraud is removed from the white house!
Granny commented:
Sheer anarchy. Even during the hey-day of the riots in the 60′s I cannot recall this kind of intimidation of legislators.
just sayin commented:
Just was him on msnbc. No word of it. This report is spam.
Mike commented:
Hope they don’t try that in Indiana with a certain top GOP Senator I know. The dude is a big ole ex sheriff, killed two bad guys in an old west style shoot out, single handed, with his .357 Mag. Eyes would get blackened at the very least.
Kevin commented:
This is what you get when the police have more loyalty to their union than to the laws they swore to uphold and enforce. I am an LEO and these officers who are standing by doing nothing are a disgrace to everyone who wears their badge and honors it as the sign of public trust that it is.
I am deeply ashamed of their actions. Please note everyone that a majority of us DO NOT in any way subscribe to this crap, and think it is absolutely disgraceful the way these sworn officers have simply ignored their superiors and chain of command.
katy commented:
This seriously has to stop. When is someone going to do some crackdown or are these thugs going to continue this crap?
When there are no consequences, the criminals keep doing what they know best. We need Mark Levin and Co. to start pressing charges and pressing so hard it puts these animals in jail!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder where the “no labels” trolls are now?

When Barry was state Senator in Illinois! Giving his friends grants. You know (pay to play) Moose’s cousin even benefited!
Jonathan commented:
I’m sure angry rhetoric is exactly what will solve a problem. You, not the right, not the left, but you who use hateful words, believe in false claims from authority above, generalize and stereotype, you are all the reason this country is not everything it can be.
Might I suggest looking at both sides non biased by pre-conceived ideas about “parties” and make well thought out requests. We had that once, but it turned into the House and the Senate.
tamale102280 commented:
But the msm said they were just peaceful protesters. Hmmm, guess they lied. Can’t wait for the footage. I have some people that need to see this.

You think that Barry might call a “beer Summit?”

Making an excellent case for their side, in the process!

So, where is the video?
brainsandbeauty commented:
People said shame. He was not trapped. Argh! The governor locked everyone out of the capitol so he had to walk to an open door. No one touched him. I was there. It was safe. No one was going to hurt him. People were just saying shame. I was there and had my hand up in a peace sign
NSagan commented:
I’ve been worried about it. Everyday on tv we hear about 100′s of thousand of violent goonions. Then some guy on fox got punched, well he said punched and then later said someone touched his arm twice but seriously, that’s unbelievable. And now a Republican state senator had to cry out for help? No wonder he called them slobs. Then later I heard there have been zero arrests, not one.

He appeared on the Leftie MSNBC, which is what the mobsters watch, so they probably had it in for him. I hope to NEVER hear another word about any one in the Tea Party, when they have to split the hair on the gnat’s ass to find out ANYTHING derrogatory about the group which NEVER employed the thuggish tactics that these “educators” and “civil servants” have employed. PERIOD!

Do you ever really want the truth? Governor walker locked the doors. People were yelling shame but not touching him. I was there holding up the peace sign. We are not violent. Get a clue folks.

Beachcomber commented:
you are all the reason this country is not everything it can be.
No, the reason the country isn’t all it can be is because of statism and the philosophy of big government, which take far too much capital from those who produce it and which make too many people dependent on politicians.
Reducing the size, scope, and influence of government will free the citizens to achieve their potential.

brainsandbeauty commented:
The video shows that people were yelling shame. No one touched Grothman!! The doors to the capitol are locked because of the governor. People were yelling “peace” while he waited for someone to unlock the door. Dem rep. Halsey spoke to the group and that was it. I was right there.
Joe College commented:
The Obama media is preparing us for the release of Robert Kennedy’s killer, Sirhan Sirhan.

Mickey C commented:
Personally, I’m going to wait for the video to come out before I go shooting off my mouth one way or the other.
As for you, Jonathon; any person, of any political persuasion who, after seeing or hearing the ludicrous and outrageous comments of the protesters as well as their oft-lapsing bouts with physical violence, Hitler-esque signage, and vilification of any and all who may disagree with them, their demands, or their plight – who doesn’t get angry at the tactics these people employ – should be required to see a mental health specialist in a hurry.
An even better question would be – “what kind of individual looks at what’s been happening for the last two weeks and DOESN’T feel abject anger, disgust, and outrage?”

Jeff- if it was in fact caught on video, then it’s just a matter of time before it makes its way to either the news sources out there, or YouTube, or some other video channel. Time will tell. In the interim, I am holding back on any and all vitriolic urges until physical proof is forthcoming. And brother – I’m hoping you’re right. Because if it does come to light that yet another incident of intimidation or violence took place simply because someone verbally disagreed with what the other side was spewing forth – then G_d help you all…
Remember…yours is not the only side that can react “strenously” to a given stimulus. Especially when repeatedly provoked.
Just sayin’…

OK i went and watched it. in the 12 minute clip from 2:35 to 2:60 it was pretty radical. if that dem rep in the orange shirt and sports coat along with the bearded guy doing the peace sign had not been there who know what would have happened. of course if this had been reversed. The networks would be wall to walling this video of tea partiers acting like maniacs. i would not have wanted to be this guy. there leftists are nuts and they stink according to people there who say the capital building has begun to reek.
gus commented:
LIBTARDS. Take a moment from smelling up the planet and consider the following.
Imagine CONSERVATIVES from the TEA PARTY behaved like you pathetic losers did in Madison the last 2 weeks. You fuktards can’t even smell your own stench any longer. Just imagine if CONSERVATIVES behaved like you?? You can’t. You’re pathetic losers and lose, you shall.
Deekaman commented:
#40: Thanks for the link. You doubters: If you are intellectually honest, you will call this what it is. Thugs and bullies. Grothman was his usual unflappable self while the Lefty thugs show the world what they are. You are losing and I’ll be happy to see you on the $#itpile of history.

No Deekaman, this is just typical LIBTARD TOLERANCE. Libs are kind and caring.
This has gone beyond pathetic. This is all about GOOONIONS. Nothing else. Time to KILL all GOONIONS.
Beachcomber commented:

Actually, the networks ran the story that tea partiers called black congressmen the N-word during the run-up to passing ObamaCare. When Breitbart provided video proving that it didn’t happen, the claim continued to be made.
To this day reporters still say that it happened. Are they lying or just delusional? I guess it doesn’t matter, since the end result is the same.
TC commented:
I POSTED THE LINK above 20 minutes ago people – and NOW this site is updated to INCLUDE IT – hit refresh and view it – it’s disgusting what they did to this man, and I want to know WHEN those that took an oath to protect ALL are going to STEP UP AND DO THEIR JOBS – unions aren’t going to be able to protect you when the public is demanding the lot of you are fired and the National Guard is called up (which should have happened already) to protect OUR elected officials from the thugs who are trashing our Capitol.
Katherine L. commented:
Beachcomber you are correct. repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth. they have successfully convinced people that sarah palin, a successful up by her bootstraps, savvy, nice honest moral and the epitome of all this is right with America a land that gives fair chances for meeting your potential as a woman, mother, patriot. this same media has turned her into a dumb stupid redneck fame whore in the minds of most americans.
and so many republicans go along with it. meanwhile karl rove gets his picture taking by the piss ch###t photographer and lauded in the New Yorker for riding down the road chomping a cigar and giggling with his girlfriend lobbyist who broke up his marriage in 2009. go figure.

I’m sorry, I can’t seem to make it past the first 1:54. What with the shouts of “shame!” being put out there 500 times in just that time period. There’s only so much a person of sound mind and character can take..
Frankly, what concerns me much more so than this current fight is the fact that the deep political divisions which are tearing this country apart at the seams will not die out until the radicalized Leftist remnants from the 60′s actually die out. Physically, that is.
They will not “fade” away. They will not leave without a great deal more of what we, as a nation, have been (mis)treated to for the last 50 years or so. Further, they will never give up the fight to turn this nation into their vaunted dream-nation replica of Western European socialist democracies. It is on this front that we, on the other side of the ideological coin, will face our most ferocious fight and where some measure of violence will most likely have to come to bear in order to achieve what truly needs to be done to put this country right side up again.
Not saying I approve of violence as a way to achieve our goals, but rather that by definition and degree, the Left in this nation will not acquiesce to any notion of common-sense, factual evidence to the contrary of their belief systems, or majority disapproval thereof.
Can’t say I’m looking forward to it should it ever come about. Just saying that right now, I can see very few other options available to us in the long term.

Why are these people permitted to be there? Do they have permits? I don’t think it’s legal to mob someone is it? They need to be removed or the National Guard need to come in to protect these people. I think it’s totally appropriate to have a show of force if they behave this way. They like to intimidate people maybe they need to be intimidated. I’m sick of these parasites.

Katherine, amen:
…of course if this had been reversed. The networks would be wall to walling this video of tea partiers acting like maniacs…
We have a problem in this nation, and it’s a serious one. The MSM is truly become the worst of Iron Curtain -era Soviet and East German propagandists. At times I believe they have gone much further. Rumors of the US taking in former Nazi and Communist masters of propaganda coupled with the undeniable fact that all disciplines get more effective with time and practice (such as, say, tomato cultivation — one cannot deny that those who practice this have gotten better at it by many orders of magnitude in the last 60 years….Burpee’s comes to mind….), you can’t help but think that we are in for some serious s&&t.
Couple all that with the knowledge that a sizable slice of our nation’s population has been so de-educated that they are, for the deceivers, like a great fruit-tree, ripe for picking. Perhaps the most deceivable groups of people on the planet since the dark ages exists in the modern world.

The judge that ruled that these thugs can occupy the capilal building should be charged with aiding and abetting anarchy. I think it’s time for the National Guard to restore order and remove these thugs, this has ceased to be a peaceful demonstration. The police and the capital police seem to be powerless and afraid of the this unruly crowd and it that is true they should turn in their badges.

TorchesToRome commented:
The Progressives at the Capitol building have been feeding on hate and rage for the past two weeks. That can only go on for so long before their rage burns out bright and all they are left with is pure hatred in their disgusting black heart of hearts. What we are seeing now are small actions to test whether or not they will be able to get away with more extremist and violent tactics in the coming weeks. From the (non)action of law enforcement in Madison to protect their enemies they should be emboldened to move on to the next phase very soon.
Dave-O commented:
It was nowhere near the “peaceful and respectful” protest that the Dem rep at the end was asking for. It was a MOB scene. Profanities were flying as was the “f” word. Disgusting display.
The Dem rep saved Rep. Grothman from the mob – thank you for that. But that IN NO WAY excuses the utterly inexcusable conduct by the ugly mob of goonion members that were present.
One guy holding up a loudspeaker to Rep. Grothman’s ear? Are you kidding me?
And then they blame Gov. Walker for locking the doors instead of their own thuggish behavior??? These venomous cretins just don’t have a clue. Law and order is breaking down and that’s just the way the Green Bay Slackers want it. Lawlessness, anarchy, intimidation, threats & violence by thugs and goons, mob rule. Their enablers in the media and elsewhere cheer them on. It’s the Union Way.

Where are the police? With that large of a crowd, riot squads need to be surrounding the Statehouse. Union violence is legendary and it would appear that the dam is about to burst in Madison.
WTF — did I hear that the firefighters are part of the protest? They have no skin in the game.
Also the Dem Assembly member was not helping by saying that anger should be directed to Governor Walker. That can get Walker killed for chrissake. And our “hero” and his legislative friends further incited the mob with their “Shame, Shame” sham last Friday AM.
Time to make some arrests, take some names and kick the out-of-state interlopers as far outside the Isthmus as possible.
Freddy commented:
The police will need to start both arresting abusive protesters as well as supplying protection for public officials.

Freddy the police are on the other side and are in complete sympathy with the bands of thugs roaming the square.

Money grubbing slobs is right ! Very telling to see the look of fear on the Union Steward faces within the mob….These thug ringleaders had extreme difficulty controlling the anger within their own mob. I suspect they will cutting deals to end this very soon.

Wisconsin state government employees earn more than their privately-employed counterparts according to USA Today study:

Rising cost of benefits seems to be the reason. No surprise there – except to the dim-bulb public employees and their acolytes in the media.

Wisc. Public Employees Invest in Koch-Owned Company
AP
By Christian Schneider
The vitriol from protesting Wisconsin workers towards the Kochs emerged quickly and intensely. Signs ranging between lame and vulgar (often both) dot the public-union marches.
But what the protesters don’t realize is that they actually have a reason to root for the Koch brothers.
According to the State of Wisconsin Investment Board (SWIB), the Wisconsin Retirement System owns $5.5 million in Georgia Pacific corporate bonds. (Georgia Pacific is owned by Koch Industries.) This is the retirement system in which the overwhelming majority of state and local employees participate. These are the pension benefits that public employees are trying so hard to protect.
So here’s the challenge: Explain to a Wisconsin state worker that they are the ones helping fund the Koch brothers. Then sit back and watch the fun.

National Guard time. These mobs are trying to control government, it is a putsch.

Taqiyyotomist commented:

They’re just people, gadfly. They’re DECEIVED. The Deceivers, at the top of their union, are Marxists, plain and simple, and intentionally deceive and use their members as tools, as “useful idiots”.
One could argue that they, even at the top, are also among the decieved, given the truth of the existance of Satan. I wonder about that, and should probably consult a greater theologian than I.
For at least 40 years now, the communists have been in control of American education, media, arts, and essentially all information dissemination of ANY sort.
I’m not trying to be a “concern troll” here, but I recognize the need to have a bit of Christ-like compassion for these folks, even the fat guy on the floor of the WI State House with the crusty feet. Look, I told him in a comment yesterday to “go f&&k himself with a 50′ reinforced concrete phallus”. I know the anger. But, at the same time, I know the hyprcrisy within me. Quoting the words of Christ, and at the same time doing that, is hyprcrisy. I recognize that. I also recognize that even Christians and those who wish to be a conduit for God’s light, for truth, are angry.
God will judge, and Maranatha….because that seems to be the only way out of all this.

Wisconsin State Rep. Jon Erpenbach (D) was just interviewed (from Chicago) on Greta – saying that he is now being supported financially by his parents since he would otherwise have to go to Madison to pick up his paycheck.
Typical liberal. They may grow older physically – but never emotionally or from a maturity standpoint. Still sponging off his parents.

I think the senator is the thug. Watch out for a revolt. Everyone in Wisconsin has arms. Their cries have fallen on deaf ears (the video proves that). I think some people making the decisons for the people need to be mobbed.
Right now a hostile corporate takeover of Wisconsin. It makes me so sad as if a state is dying a GOP death.

Annoyed In Illinois commented:
Only two pathetic states do NOT have conncealed carry of a weapm: Illinois and Wisconsin. I’ll bet poor Grothman was wishing he had one.
Mr. Grothman will soon come to realize that even when police are enforcing the law, response time is several minutes. On the other hand, the muzzle velocity of a Taurus 9 mm is 2,000 feet per……….. Well, I’d block no man’s path who has those odds on his side.
Hank commented:
When the people take to the streets will be the only way to end the corporate theivery of America. When a few patriots stand up for just what is right and just. We know why Wiscosin is broke and every other state. We know why the country is unemployed and 42 million are on foodstamps and these poor people brainwashed by tv ads and think tanks to vote GOP. Its just wrong. This country had a revolution once against oligarchy.
Hank commented:
They are fighting for our freedom. I hope the bastard Sanator fears for his life from now on.

Jessica: the ONLY HOSTILE corporate takeover is that of and FROM union heads. This country was founded on HARD WORK BRINGS YOU RICHES. Don’t like it? head to a country that will give you a hand out. I hear most of them are drying up .. just like our once illustrious country is.
NO ONE deserves ANYTHING except THAT which they worked for. People that own companies have a RIGHT to expect profits and they TAKE the risks to bring that company forward. Workers take a job – do it and get a paycheck.
The mob mentality of this crowd in the video proves 100% where this country is headed: into oblivion. The revolt is coming, the people of the United States of America ARE not going to stand for this bullying anymore. Unions have done NOTHING for america except tarnish its image.

“I think the senator is the thug. ”
Yeah, because he has a job and he’s doing it.
“Watch out for a revolt. Everyone in Wisconsin has arms.”
Is that a threat Loughner?? I am sure for every 1 coward gun their are 10 conservative guns. Bring it.
“Their cries have fallen on deaf ears (the video proves that). ”
Their cries are whining, shrill rants of stupidity in a state that is going broke. They are paid more than private employees, and they pay less than federal employees. Educate yourself before you come on here spouting ridiculous crap that everyone knows the truth about.
“I think some people making the decisons for the people need to be mobbed.”
Then you need to seek professional help or be arrested because you are a danger to others and a danger to yourself.
“Right now a hostile corporate takeover of Wisconsin. It makes me so sad as if a state is dying a GOP death.”
What is sad is that you actually wrote the WTF post. I guess obama has his constituents nailed…you know he calls all of you “WTF!”

If this had been a Democrat and the people the TEA Party, the media would have been all over it. AND if the Democrat were black and the protesters white…well, it would NEVER happen. But these people, who are protesting for the RIGHT to raise taxes on their fellow citizens and to keep their cushy jobs and wonderful bennies and great pensions – and the perceived RIGHT to hire their own bosses through campaign contributions. How is that fair to regular Joe’s?
The REAL working class in America (only 12% are unionized) – the bill payers – the makers – should be counter-protesting. Where are they? Oh, yeah…working. The phone banks of the union headquarters should be ringing off the hook and being shut down. Their web sites should be on fire with scathing emails! Where is the opposition, and where are the supporters of the Governor?
mcc commented:
I managed to watch the video through to completion…it wasn’t easy. But those here who say their hands were up in the peace sign and were chanting “Peace” — it appeared that that was the way they would signal their troops that they were getting out of hand.
The Peace sign and chanting “Peaceful” was used to calm themselves down. I’m glad they did. The crowd was pressing forward and there was nowhere for them to go. We all know deaths have occurred when crowds crush people against an immovable object.
It’s misleading to have anyone think the crowd was peaceful from the start. They were purposefully loud and obnoxious until one of their own – with a frightened, frantic look (@3:00mark) began the “Peace” initiatives. It took nearly a minute of signalling and calling out “Peaceful” to get the crowd under control.

Unions are not what they used to be. They are no longer needed, so they change their focuse to became relavent. They are now nothing more than a leftest leaning political action committee.

Yep. That was dangerous. What’s up with Wisconsin? It’s as if they have NO police protection or order there at all.

And all of them quite well fed on their meager salaries, it appears.
Kathteach commented:
It was hard to watch this to the finish. I immediately thought of the scene in Tennessee William’s play “Suddenly Last Summer” where Elizabeth Taylor is telling the story about Montgomery Clift being hounded by crowds in Italy….or was it Greece…..and eventually beaten by the mobs (he died)……because he was a homosexual. Sorry if my details are fuzzy about the movie….but when audiences watched this drama years ago, they were becoming sensitized to the “otherness” and terror that an openly gay person lived with….and films like this helped pave the way for the tolerance we now have for diverse sexual identities.
Now that “other” is a conservative Republican. This film should be on every newscast across this country tomorrow – we never did have a film of the Tea Party person who allegedly spit on the senators marching through the crowd (together BTW). Sadly, we have this footage of one lone GOP legislator being terrorized – literally – by the so called progressive mob. I am also shocked by the fact that the Capitol Police did not open the door.
I also thought the Democrat legislator was wonderful to help his friend and colleague out – his concern was genuine. Kudos to him – what a great guy.
What an awful scene of mob hatred – just chilling.
Muffin commented:
They’re sleeping in the state house because they’re all homeless. Unions pay those homeless people to protest for them, $10 an hour, I saw it on another vid clip. Seen the pictures of these homeless folks in there? No shoes, no teeth, no sanity, no weightloss program. And they’re non-union. Beating drums and raving like a bunch of pagans. You bet it creeps me out. Keep up the smackdown Gov. Walker, I’m TOTALLY behind anyone who tries to curb this mob.

Unfortunately if you live in a large metropolitan area you can expect more of this behavior in departments that are union first and LEO second. The officers in Madison in this one event have disgraced the oaths they took and the badge they wear. Many fine officers nation wide will suffer by the inaction perpetrated this day. As for the the command in these departments, heads need to be held accountable. I would also remind them a large part of that mob where people who on a daily bases, call them pigs or worse. This is the type action seen when a group of officers turn on one of their own, slow response to calls for back up, or no response at all.

You mean the violence at town halls like where Kenneth Gladney was attacked by the SEIU goons? Or where the little old ladies were trying to speak over the shouting Dem congressmen, many of whom left when they were asked to explain their positions or citizens who were threatened by union thugs if they brought in a camera? Or was it the protest in Washington where Pelosi and the Dems from the Black Caucus accused tea partiers of shouting racist comments and spitting on them and then never being able to produce a video even though they themselves were filming? Or the town halls that were packed with union thugs so that the voting public couldn’t get in. Or the one where the woman shut the town hall down because the congresswoman didn’t want to take questions, or the one where the politician basically told his constituents they were stupid and then didn’t get re-elected? Sitting in chairs and shouting at your elected representative to get him to answer your questions is in no way similar to what happened at the rally today and you know it. But you condone the violence and threats of it. Because to libs, the ends justifies the means….because you are so smart that you know what’s best for us. Oh, and I rarely eat doughnuts.

All paid for by DNC’s ‘obamas america group’ under their many statewide and nationwide pacs.
This is a preview of the 2012 election so do not take anything for granted. This is truely a paid mob-astroturfers. The Koch’s better loosen up some dollars to pay for tons of GOP workers on the 2012 election or GOP is going down. Volunteering is a thing of the past.

Your demonstrations and your unrelenting cascade of disparaging slurs, unfounded judgments, and prejudicial innuendos, which apparently apply to every individual numbered amongst the race of Man – except for yourselves – has frequently crossed the line which separates Freedom of Speech from deliberately utilizing the same tactics and methods of intimidation and mental & emotional abuse that have been previously exploited and employed by tyrants and dictators, fascists and terrorist organizations throughout history.
ANONYMOUS cannot abide this behavior any longer. The time for us to be idle spectators in your inhumane treatment of fellow Man has reached its apex, and we shall now be moved to action. Thus, we give you a warning: Cease & desist your protest campaign in the year 2011, return to your homes & close your public Web sites. Should you ignore this warning, you will meet with the vicious retaliatory arm of ANONYMOUS: We will target your public Websites, and the propaganda & detestable doctrine that you promote will be eradicated; the damage incurred will be irreversible, and neither your institution nor your activists will ever be able to fully recover. It is in your best interest to comply now, while the option to do so is still being offered, because we will not relent until you cease the conduction & promotion of all your bigoted operations & doctrines.
The warning has been given. What happens from here shall be determined by you.

First, they came for those that retired after 25 years at full salary, lavish benefits, with COLAs.
Since I did not retire after 25 years at full salary, lavish benefits, with COLAs, I said nothing.

Glenn was not the sharpest knife in the drawer in high school and he hasn’t changed. He can’t seem to make a comment without making a dig at someone. Just plain irresponsible. I’m conservative and run my own business.
Kelly commented:
Stumbled across this website and am so depressed by the content and the comments. Amazing to see how many people here are talking about guns and violence and calling teachers, nurses, etc. goons and other names. The people of Wisconsin are indeed angry, and they shouted “Shame!” at a politician whom they believe should be ashamed of himself for his policy decisions. I agree with them. The governor accidentally locked the Senator out of the capitol while illegally locking out the people whose taxes pay for all of their salaries as well as the building’s expenses. None of these people are violent. None of them are talking about bringing weapons, which is more than I can say for the people commenting here. I’m in my private sector job and grateful for my public education. I want my future children to benefit from high-quality teachers like I had growing up in Wisconsin. My teachers weren’t lazy “slobs.” They worked extremely hard for a very modest paycheck. You all should be ashamed of yourselves for wanting to hold on to a few extra pennies at the expense of public employees like teachers, nurses, janitors, and prison guards who will NEVER make a lot of money but who devote themselves to the welfare of their fellow man, not to mention all the children, patients, and law-abiding citizens who benefit from their hard work. My bet is that all of you, in fact, benefit from their work! And that is why you chip in to pay their salaries. Maybe you’d prefer to have volunteer prison guards? Or volunteer teachers? Wouldn’t that be nice, if we could have great people in important jobs without paying them? Dream on. If you think they’ve got it so good, why not go get a public sector job yourself? You too could earn $36,000/year but have good benefits! If that’s what you want, why not work for it?
Tard commented:
The union police should be minus one police chief today for this.
Astoundingly irresponsible to allow this.
Break The Right Wing commented:
Yes how dare teachers, firefighters, and other obscenely underpaid government employees ask for more money. If it was a group for a conservative cause doing the same thing you all wouldn’t be calling them “thugs” and “bullies”, you bunch of hypocrites.

When Sejanus tried to make a similar power grab as Senator Grothman, Roman citizens beheaded Sejanus and kicked his head through the streets of Rome.
Grothman should be glad he was only mobbed. He deserved worse.
Sparkchild7 commented:
Right on Kelly! I can’t believe I actually read all the disgusting comments on this thread. It astounds me that this kind of hatred is bred from individuals angry about their taxes being used to pay adequate wages. Let’s just all work for minimum wage because obviously cost of living is going to stay the same forever, and oh, the wars had nothing to do with the budget. As if there weren’t private sector companies inflating government or military contracts. Oh wait… this stapler cost taxpayers $100? $350,000 spent on pens?
I know what will fix the economy, how about we get rid of some more jobs so no one has money, give everyone tax cuts so no money is coming in, and just hope that it balances itself out? No unemployment though, naturally, those people who got fired were just lazy! Well we’re at it, lets ship all of our remaining jobs overseas and allow those companies the luxury of lining their own pockets! Because that makes sense economically right? Private enterprise should flourish in this country without any obligation to provide jobs with adequate wages? And because we’ve done away with the whole public sector, simply because they pay adequately and allocate funds to provide necessary services, we can rely on the private sector to support a larger middle class without trimming working class salaries, right? They’re not going to try and turn social programs into a business for maximum profit though, surely not. That’s good to know.
I can’t wait until all the ignorant morons on both sides die out and allow my unemployed, over-educated generation to take the rains and do away with your failed two party system. My whole generation must just be lazy. That’s why we can’t get a decent paying job, pork barrel spending, not because our former president bankrupted our economy.

Sorry that the republican do not care about the educational system in Wisconsin. That they do not care about the children of this state!
Did you know that Wisconsin was rated 2nd in the nation in education, well, the republlican and left wing are trying to change that. Look for us at the bottom of the list if they have their way!
Chisum commented:
Mom,
Perhaps you missed this?
To recap: white students in Texas perform better than white students in Wisconsin, black students in Texas perform better than black students in Wisconsin, Hispanic students in Texas perform better than Hispanic students in Wisconsin. In 18 separate ethnicity-controlled comparisons, the only one where Wisconsin students performed better than their peers in Texas was 4th grade science for Hispanic students (statistically insignificant), and this was reversed by 8th grade. Further, Texas students exceeded the national average for their ethnic cohort in all 18 comparisons; Wisconsinites were below the national average in 8, above average in 8.
Perhaps the most striking thing in these numbers is the within-state gap between white and minority students. Not only did white Texas students outperform white Wisconsin students, the gap between white students and minority students in Texas was much less than the gap between white and minority students in Wisconsin. In other words, students are better off in Texas schools than in Wisconsin schools – especially minority students.
Conclusion: instead of chanting slogans in Madison, maybe it’s time for Wisconsin teachers to take refresher lessons from their non-union counterparts in the Lone Star State.

In that charged climate, the veiled threat of violence could’ve actualized very quickly, and I wonder how the MSM would’ve carried the story if a Republican legislator had been murdered by the mob that day. All this because Walker’s trying to keep Wisconsin from joining the PIGS of Europe…
The whole disruption reinforces my worst suspicions about the way unions are now; their pronounced body odor’s just the outward malaise of that corrupt, self-perpetuating Beast they call the revolution — as if the ’60s never passed.
Sign me on with the counter-revolutionary Rebellion, a resurgence of 1776, only with the ouster of brutal collectivists as the goal. These deceitful thugs have never been good political masters, as Soviet-Bloc history amply proves. And we’ll be starting our rebellion now, because we have time to push back.
Patriot Act commented:
So is this the conversation where they were “repeatedly pressured” to accept five million dollars and they “repeatedly refused” to do so? Haha.
Good job, Mr. O’Keefe. You have exposed them for the bald-faced opportunistic liars that they are.
When NPR gets defunded, will they have to take the word “Public” out of their name?

Sorry, that comment was intended for a different thread, to which I’m going now. Feel free to delete it.
