mercy, you crack me up. you're so confused. did you hear about the stuff that happened this year in wisconsin politics? probably not. you can learn a lot about it in the first link and in the links at that page. here's a summary for you. the republican governor pushed for and got a change in the laws that took away collective bargaining rights for some labor unions, the ones that are most heavily populated by his political opposition. it was a purely political act. this selective abuse of power made the people whose rights he took away angry. lots of those groups are the ones organizing this parade.

oh, right, the parade. it is being organized by some thirty labor unions. not by the republican party. if they want to organize a parade, they sure can. they can invite who they want to invite and not invite those folks they don't want. just like they did at the statehouse this spring.

I've tried to read what you're sayin, I swear I try, but I don't understand you. I read this in a post with your name on it:

Quote:
Doesn't everyone contribute to the production of labor in some sense, no matter where you fall on the ladder?
and I almost fell off my chair. surely this is a big long typo. everyone contributes? I think maybe your account has been hijacked. your faux outrage is like a comedy skit by one of those comedians whose schtick is being angry, but without all the logic that makes it funny.

I'm really glad this made the headlines too. I'd love to talk sensibly about it. interested?
