Once again, the need for tea party demonstrators is highlighted by its absence. If hundreds of college students and paid union demonstrators are to flood the state house, there must be equal numbers of conservatives who flood in at the same time to confront them. The left dominates the demonstration air waves and that has to change for sanity to be returned, Some will say that this will encourage violence, but non violent tactics can be used by both sides and if violence occurs, sometimes it can't be avoided unless we are willing to lose.

We were there in the 1000’s last Saturday and have another rally planned for this Saturday. We have JOBS and can’t just take off extended periods of time to protest. We are winning though, because we have a Gov. who will NOT back down, and remarkably, he has been able to keep a couple RINO State Senators in line.

Keep the faith, victory is near!

No, we are busy. We have jobs and families to attend to. We do have time, however, for things like recall petitions and voting in elections.

The unwashed mob that is the protesters are only impressing those who are already sympathetic to them.Normal, responsible people are repelled by them.

Are you serious? Many of us are slaving away at our jobs trying to keep the Tax Monster in our districts fed.

How many tea party protesters would have to be there full time for the drive by media to cover them and for the media to cover the tea party talking points? Not going to happen nor does it really matter.

Everybody knows one simple fact. The democrats ran away and are hiding in another state and refuse to vote. Everything else is just noise.

No matter how many times the news repeated the lie about Sarah Palin being to blame for the Tuscon shooting, There was still no connection made between Jared Lochner and Sarah Palin in anybody’s mind so it didn’t work.

It is my opinion that the reason the left didn’t riot when Bush won in Florida is that every news channel and webpage showed the score. Bush ahead by 532 votes. That never changed day after day. Psychologically it had a big affect.

As long as the leftist protesters aren’t violently attacked or killed and as long as the Governor isn’t a bully or heavy handed, the democrats running and hiding is still the heart of the matter. Sending out notices to thousands of teachers saying that they will get fired if the dems don’t come back is great. If Walker fired thousands of teachers affective immediately, then it would be bad for him.

Let the leftist protesters protest alone and soon the media will get tired of covering them or another world event will take its place. Counter protests just give them a chance to turn violent and then blame the tea party.
For example, if Sarah Palin declared that she was running for President, Wisconsin wouldn’t get much more attention nationally.

Last Saturday we held a huge tea party rally at the Capitol on the other side of the building. The Capitol police told us we could NOT go in the building. However, the union thugs and their useful idiots on the other side were allowed in.

Many of our people had signs that said “We can only protest on Saturday because we WORK Monday through Friday”
