Unions Aim to Disrupt Wisconsin Vote Today
FOX News ^ | March 10, 2011 | By Chris Stirewalt

It’s going to be a very ugly day in Wisconsin.

A crowd of 5,000 union protestors swarmed the state Capitol in Madison shattered windows and barricaded themselves inside amid calls for a “class war” after news got out that Senate Republicans had circumvented a Democratic blockade of a bill curbing state union power.

“This is war. This is a class war that has been leveled against the working people of this country,” Moore told anchor Rachel Maddow.

Some labor leaders are calling for a day of unrest and want teachers to again walk off the job in protest of the move.

To defeat the left, expose the left,

and the best way to expose them
is to have them expose themselves...

well... you know what I mean.

The union leadership / socialists want want the Wisc NG out there...it gives them a May 4, 1970 Kent State opportunity which is the last thing Walker needs.
Take a look at the number of women there on the live feed. Imagine a 20 year old NG with riot shield standing over a prostrate crying protester...The MSM is just waiting in the weeds for this to happen. The big Republican bullies “stomping women and children.
Let the union thugs rip up the capital, makes better tv for our cause by showing everyone what this trash stands for.

And there’s always the big speakers and Barney music.

Actually, if you were to play Limbaugh or Michael Savage they would cover their ears and run from the building screaming LALALALA! I can't hear you! LALALALALALA!

If you check out the videos, it was young people, probably students at UW, that swarmed the building. However, got an email today from a friend in Wisconsin and it said union thugs from Chicago are on their way to Madison. Hoping cooler heads prevail, but don't hold out much hope for that!

The leftist media seems to know this and is starting to get worried. I heard a comment on PMSNBC last night that suggested that the GOP was "provoking" violence from the left.

If you have ANY doubt at all about how this is orchestrated and coordinated by the WH, DNC, and Union Bosses, look at the pre-printed signage to make it easily readable on the State Run Media.

This is NOT "Class Warfare"; it's whether We The People have had enough of this Progressive/Socialist/Communist/Liberal coup that has taken over this once-great Nation.

Lock 'n load, Patriots; it's coming.

Please post the quote from MLK.. was this MLK, Jr? The left took seeds from his peaceful pursuits and twisted them into terrible things. He was really quite brilliant.

Very good point. Bringing in the NG would be playing right into the hands of the Commies. Let them destroy the place then use the videos to show the country what it means to be a union member.

No, they would probably like that and Kenny G as well.

Charlie Daniels might get them going though.

"This is a class war that has been leveled against the working people of this country"

Work sixty hours a week and you're not worker if you don't belong to a union. And that same person gets money taken away from them by force to support those same workers in a manner that he can't afford to keep his own family.

Commies are so funny with words.

I was thinking the Barry Manilow would put them to sleep. Then we could just cart them out and put them in a big pile in the parking lot. Hose them down with some disinfectant since most of them haven’t bathed in a year or so then send them home.

Best idea would be to stay away, unless you’re going in order to take pictures.

Absolutely. There doesn't seem to be any need for us to be there whatsoever except to take pictures. Anything that could lead to confrontation would work against us. Let them be a-holes on their own. The people can see what's going on.
