Wisconsin Democrats Demonstrate Civility in Political Discourse (Not!)

Wisconsin Democrats throw a temper tantrum when they lose a vote on the budget in the Wisconsin General Assembly





The Wisconsin Assembly passed a highly contested bill early Friday that would strip most public unions of most of their collective-bargaining rights. The budget plan by Gov. Scott Walker (R) has drawn tens of thousands of union supporters to protest at the State Capitol in Madison for the last two weeks. State Senate Democrats have refused to return to the Capitol to join the Republican Senate majority for a vote on the bill.

Commentary

I think this is a prime example of of the Democrats being everything that they've projected onto Republicans at every opportunity.

Is this is the Civility Democrats Seek?
Union Operative Sabotages Tea Party Sound System

Typical hate-filled sign held by Lefty Union members and Wisconsin Teachers as they marched and screamed with fury that their entitlements from the public teat were being threatened



I wonder if this is what Democrats mean when they say they want more civility in politics?
I wonder if this is what Democrats mean when they say they are more tolerant of dissent?
I wonder if this is what Democrats mean when they say Tea Partiers are violent?
(a Union Saboteur physically assaulted Tea Partiers when he was caught trying to destroy the sound system)






MADISON, Wisc. — Police officers in Madison detained and subsequently released a labor union operative who attempted, somewhat successfully, to destroy the speaker system at the Tea Party counter rally Saturday.


Police would not release the name of the man, or any more details, but eyewitnesses told The Daily Caller he ripped the wiring out of several different speaker systems. Part of the sound system went out for about five minutes.


When a Tea Partier, Luke Bacher, confronted the man ripping the speaker wiring out, Bacher said the man physically assaulted him. That caused police to get involved and detain the union operative.

I think the video below tells even more about the story and what is behind the Lefty protests: They want a new revolution in this nation that will wipe away what our Founding Fathers fought for...

14 Democrat State Senators Flee Wisconsin
Wanted Posters for Easy Identification


**2-20-2011** Thanks to The "Badger 14": Escape From Wisconsin for linking here!

Today is the third straight day of protests in Madison, Wisconsin as Barack Obama’s shock troops storm the state capitol to fight Governor Walker’s plan to reform the public-sector scam that has ravaged that state for decades.
As Democrats fled the statehouse (to an apparently non-union hotel in Illinois) to avoid doing the duties they were elected for and capitol staffers were told to lock their doors, the impression that the rest of America may have is that this is a “spontaneous” uprising (sort of like Tunisia and Egypt were supposed to be spontaneous). However, if that’s what you’re thinking, you couldn’t be more mistaken.
Despite his feigning ignorance on the situation in Wisconsin, the President’s background is as a “community organizer,” working with groups like ACORN and the SEIU. As a community organizer, their modus operandi is to make it seem as though marches and protests are “popular uprisings” [yeah, Mubarek got pwned].
Because of this background, this should come as no surprise to you…
According to the DNC’s activist arm OFA, “Organizing for America is mobilizing on the ground in Wisconsin…”
That’s right. The Democrat National Committee’s Organizing for America (along with their union boss buddies) are helping to orchestrate the “uprising” in Madison.
[Perhaps that's what Nancy Pelosi means by "astroturf."]

I've made some wanted posters to help you in identifying the fleeing Wisconsin State Senators...feel free to download these posters and print them off  and carry them with you. Who knows, you might even get lucky and spot one or more of them as they hide from doing their elective duty.
