That was a nice piece of writing. Thanks for posting it.

All they have to do is hang tough. They are standing resolute. They are in my prayers.

Why couldn’t this have been our first black President?

I was lucky enough to accompany the speakers at the rally. The trooper escort through the Capitol was full of apprehension, but as soon as we came out and saw the many, many supporters it was exhilarating! Great support for the Governor and the Assembly. It made me proud to see so many people willing to come to Madison and confront the Union thugs! And as usual, I made some new conservative friends...a truly great day!

How about immediately and permanently closing down the government schools and placing the buildings and land for sale? Then, give every child a voucher for 1/3 the amount that would have been spent on them in their government school.

Let common citizens open dame schools or one room schools in the homes of neighbors. Let churches open schools. Let the vouchers be used there.

The proceeds from the sale of the government school land and buildings could fund the pensions of those teachers who have already retired or who have enough time in the system to have earned a retirement.

How long would that take? Hm? In a few days all K-12 education in the state could be privatized.

May want to capture this for the ‘record books’ (I don’t know how).

I’ve yet to see any poll out of Wisconsin on what the voters there think about this mob. It’s been 5 days now, and nothing in terms of public polling?

Hmm ... I think I know why.

.....and the garbage left on the floor under the rotunda. I sort of doubt the teachers did that. That’s the Superdome syndrome one might find committed by Jesse Jackson’s gang. Feral savages.

I’ve said all along the TP should stay home and send email and voice mail messages of support to the governor and the pub legislators. The rats look real bad for doing this. Sometimes it’s better to let your opponent shoot himself in the foot rather than give the appearance of being a provocateur.

I think the TP rally is a knee-jerk response. It also runs the risk of weakening our position if there’s a poor turnout. This was a dumb idea, imo.

When your opponent is losing, stay out of his way.

I really respect and admire Glenn Beck but we must fight this mob and this assault on Liberty.

That senator should have taken note of the officer’s name and filed a complaint immediately.

Not only that, but it gives the media and the opposition to claim that the pub legislators and the governor are just appeasing their base instead of acting in the best interests of the people of WI.

A little 3 hour rally provides a lot more potential for creating trouble for our side than it helps the legislators or the governor.
