Live Video Stream Of Wisconsin Protests Where Hundreds Of Protesters Rush Wisconsin Capitol, Vastly Outnumbering Security
That didn't take long. Ann Althouse writes: "Meade, who is in the building now, tells me, by phone, that he saw a
window on the Wisconsin Avenue side of the building opened and
protesters entering through that window. He thought it seemed as if someone in one of the Democratic legislators'
offices had opened a window to let them in, and — once they were in —
many doors have been opened all around, and people have streamed into
the building. He says he counted 3 "troopers" — I'm not sure what the
official job title is for these security people — and that they were
absurdly overwhelmed by the crowd." So...Wisconsin is not Cairo?
More:
Meade said that he wasn't afraid that these people would become violent, and indeed many of them looked happy — or dazed — perhaps out of success in taking over the building. He didn't see any damage or dangerous behavior. Meade is taking video of what he is seeing, and I will have that for you later.
AND: Meade said that he didn't see how the security officers could possibly clear out the building and that there was nothing to stop any number of individuals from entering the building right now.
It is unknown if any Republicans were harmed in the making of this mini Cairo.
At least now we know what it takes to pull the average American away from The Jersey Shore...

More Obama's thugs thinking they deserve free everything. They trashed the building last time like the vermin they are.

I can see why Freddie has a bag over his head.

What's this talk of recall mean?
BREAKING: Wisconsin Voters Launch Recall Campaign Against Eight GOP State Senators http://thinkprogress.org/2011/03/02/wisconsin-recall-2/ Wisconsin law allows any elected official who has served at least one year of their current term to be recalled from office. Today, a group of Wisconsin voters took the first step towards invoking this recall process. Under Wisconsin law, supporters of this recall effort now have 60 days to collect an amount of signatures “equal to at least 25% of the vote cast for the office of governor at the last election within the same district or territory as that of the officeholder being recalled.” The amount of signatures necessary to trigger a recall will vary from district to district, but will range from about 15,000 to 21,000 signatures per recalled senator. If the supporters succeed in collecting enough signatures, the result is an effective “do over” election.
Wisconsin just elected a Tepublican senator, Johnson, over a relatively independent Dem, Feingold. I doubt that cheeseheads are now going to all of a sudden elect Dems again. It will be entertaining to watch.
As 44 million eat using foodstamps, 25 million are unemployed/underemployed, 50 million have no health care and 40 million live below the povery level, the media is fixated on those who have good wages, good beenies, good pensions and decent working condiditons. I'm sure that most of the 24 million unemployed/underemployed would be hapy to take those WI jobs without collective bargaining.
It's all about the good beenies...they go good with weenies...yum!
Who gives a shit.
Slaves are at an historic low price people !! That's right - $90 ah head.

No worries, just add a little fluoride to their water.
"more" ... a liitle more fluoride to the water
You're bathing in it!

Those days aren't gone. Or at least, they don't have to be. Relocation is of course necessary. I draw my water from a pristine, mountain stream that originates approximately 3 miles behind my cabin, in heavy, old-growth national forest.
I travel often, enjoy my pics.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nd86EXTIEn0
I picked up a load of fluoride one day and just as I was leaving the shipper told me the load had to have hazmat placards as a poison. I said wait a minute, isn't it in the water? He said yep, but in such small amounts that it's ok. I thought, ya, right.
Average US income is still a slave's wage $40,000. - oh... and did I forget to tell you, most Americans ARE slaves to debt (JP Morgan). Shucky-darn, just as CNN thought slavery was nearly over with...

Union stage hands ?????.....WTF , is that even a real union , let alone a public union ?
I know...I saw some homeless looking white guy with dreads saying how proud Bob Marley would be
WTF?
Then I heard some people chanting Marine Corps.
I'm so confused...surreal
WTF, You didn't know Bob Marley was in the Marines?
ROTFLMAO!
Marley seemed pretty tanned for a white guy, though...:>D
It's actually sort of amusing watching the simps in the video feed playing with their iphones because they don't actually have any clue as to what to do now that they have the stage.
So now they have to pay for health care and retirement like everybody else... nah, actually it's still *less* than a private sector worker, which today has to pay for his *and*, through taxes, for the public sector benefits.
And they want sympathy?
My father always said, "If you're looking for sympathy, it's in the dictionary between shit and syphilis".
Do please correct me if I'm wrong, but did they not already pay 100% of their health care & retirement contributions as part of their total compensation package? Having to pay extra simply means transferring part of their salary from short-term to long-term. Result to state's bottom line - NIL.
No, these intrepid (and "over-worked") public employees were getting all those benefits for next to nuthin'
How come geniuses like you can figure out that customers pay corporate taxes but benefits being paid for by work confuses and befuddles you to no end?
Liberalism is a "religion of Peace".....
Liberalism is a "religion of PIECE"......
and remember, they aren't "taking" a piece from you, they are "giving" a piece to themselves
These aren't "Liberals", they're "Progressives", a new, improved moniker for Socialists! In the Progressive mind, FRNs come from the Govt, where the Govt gets them from is someone else's problem!
Is this Greece? Portugal? Spain?
Unions = Socialists = Communists = Statists
What is the Wisconsin State House, a homeless shelter for angry commies?
What happens when the money runs out and you can't have your cookies?

I thought they have some FEMA camps nearby.
The employees have joined the looting.
Obama is saving the space in the FEMA camps for his political and philosophical enemies. He might as well fence the entire country. He has that many enemies.

Very demonstrative. If anyone thinks we are going to be able to get our government spending under control after watching the last month in Wisconsin you are dreaming.
I thought we had a chance until this nonsense. Now our fate is clear to anyone who looks.
sschu
yeah - this blip on the budget is keeping us all from prosperity!!! there is nothing else to cut!! please keep sending taxpayer money to Israel and Egypt so they can buy our weapons from those great 'private' industries with laundered taxpayer money
Just exactly who did you think was going to cut the spending? If you're thinking the tea bag republicans you are in for a rude awakening. Bwahahah Cheer up maybe Palin will run for pres. I'm sure she would cut your spending.
Well, I was feelin’ sad and feelin’ blue
I didn’t know what in the world I wus gonna do
Them Communists they wus comin’ around
They wus in the air
They wus on the ground
They wouldn’t gimme no peace . . .
So I run down most hurriedly
And joined up with the John Birch Society
I got me a secret membership card
And started off a-walkin’ down the road
Yee-hoo, I’m a real John Bircher now!
Look out you Commies!

The 70k government cheese retirement packages are bullshit.
The population they want to suck from is broke and unemployed.
If they would take their protest to JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Citi
and drag Blankfein or Dimon into the streets that might change my mind.
Fuck them. Fuck them all.
Cairo they fight for their freedom. Madison they fight for a way to fleece the taxpayer. Fuck them.
LMAO! "Public Servants," shouts the overpaid unionized public servant.
Not sure if you have them in your state but the union halls all look and are the size of the Taj Mahal in Illinois.
I'm in SoCal. Had an oppty to join the Purple Shirts a couple years ago, and make 40% more money doing less technically complex work, like helping helpless users who can't print and can't put forth the effort to figure out how to put toner in a fucking printer, because it's not their job.
The only building going on here involves lavish glass and steel county/city first responder buildings (To tell us it is going to rain, that hills are on fire, or that there was an earthquake! Really?). Oh, and the brand new hotels to house the contractors shipped in to do the jobs that the fucking Purple Shirts cannot, or will not do themselves.
I contracted out to these jackwads for over 18 months. Just in the IT department, one guy went out on disability (full pay, tax free), another drew Japornime on his fucking computer all day, a third walked around with an EMPTY cup of coffee in his hand, pretending to drink it, and asking for documentation on our plan to plan. Still another kept blabbin about property with zero down was his golden ticket. The waste is appalling, and discredits those in the public sector who really do put their lives on the line.
Rant off...for now.
I worked in the prepress industry 14 years ( family business ) before it was blowtorched. I totally understand.
+1 though, I've contracted at few big corp shops and the IT guys ain't much different there. Just sayin...

Yea you're right...

LOL -- OMG. These unions are in such for a culture shock by Monday. Walker signing the bill tomorrow effectively makes all of these jobs private jobs. What happens when you strike on a private job? You get fired. There is going to be a lot of job openings tomorrow in the midwest.
If all the union workers strike, it shuts down the gov't. Gov't certainly doesn't want people to think we can live without 'em. Who's cutting the unemployment checks - NOBODY
Who's cutting the food stamp debit cards? NOBODY
You say all that like it's a bad thing!

I hope you are right. I hope Walker can go PATCO on their lazy asses. I bet if the state had job openings that 100,000 people would show up to apply in a day.
I am right, Republicans knew this was happening and just been dotting their 'I's' and crossing their "T's". They'll even have the line now that says hey we offered to keep collective bargining rights but you still didnt return. Plus now Walker gets to say i saved Wisconsion from the Union thugs siting the fact he had to do it or lay off 6000+ in the next month...

Clap • Clap • Clap, Golf Clap .....
Whos going to fire them if the people that process the paperwork are striking?
The new administration that they will hire. Do you possibily think that this Gov doesn't understand with a new tree you can't keep the old fruit?
It's sad and discouraging. These people have no idea who their real enemies are.
It's not sad - it's a start.
their is a nascaresque appeal to this stream
More like a trailer park essence.
Luv to see all the libertarian, grow food, oppose the govt, free speech folks celebrating this take down - retards ! What don't you understand about divide and conquer.
You know how you divide and conquer?
You give a group of people, a bunch of money, and buy them off. You pay them off with tax payer money. You give these people who live off from tax payer money great benefits, an secured job, no real threat of layoffs, and a guarenteed retirement based off from tax payer money.
This works great, until the people in the private sector are sick of paying taxes, and are sick of having to actually perform to avoid layoffs, who are sick of competing in the market place, and are sick of supporting people who don't have to do any of those, revolt.
Sure you might have a majority of people being bribed to go along to get along, but it doesn't matter, when you minority is paying for it all. They are the ultimate source of money, and without them, you can't bribe the public workers.
Can you run for President, you have my vote !
No, I cannot.
I'm not a scumbag lawyer that will lie to everybody, plus I don't believe in God, so most of America will assume I worship Lucifer. I've also worked all my life in the private sector, and I'm not very good at kissing ass.
Voters will hate me.
Bwahahah a lawyer working, now that's rich.
Reading comprehension -- get you some!
The only time I have agreed with you.
Is this the same private sector workers who didn't have a big enough pair to stand up to Clinton and Bush about bringing in 20+ million illegal workers to take their jobs for less pay and no benefits? Or was it the private sector workers who are such morons that they won't take a shit unless Rush or Beck tells them to?
Keep luvin' it Arkadaba.
Just sayin - more than one way to skin a cat. Multiple issues and I see complexities....no black or white answers. Wish it was easier:

Celebrating the take down?!?! I'm watching the stupidity of government eat itself. It's quite funny. Don't much care what government employees do to each other, cause as long as their doing it to each other, they can't do it to me.
You know what public workers in Wisconsin ought to do?
They should quit their jobs and demonstrate to all of Wisconsin, how much they are actually needed.
But I don't think they will do that, because a lot of government workers simply aren't needed.

ammo is a directional bet.
When the govt money runs out (soon) because PIMCO and no one else wants US Treasuries then game over. These subhuman union zombie thugs are going to be looking for new free stuff to take.

To whomever junked me and the comments in response to my post, who is paying you to be here? There is no way in hell you're intelligent enough to even know what ZH is, or is about, without some lackeys doing so.

Have fun destroying state capitol buildings etc. while you're able. When your sorry asses try getting around to taking things from those who want an honest life, you'll find out you're in the wrong in so many ways it's despicable.
Carry on and junk some more, as I rarely comment and even less rarely get this angered at what is going on. Go on - get in your Prius and go after the folks who drive dualies and have more guns and ammo for hunting (animals, at this point, not humans) than you can possibly fathom.

Direct Democracy. The most fundamental expression of the will of the people is when the people all show up in the halls of power to be powerful, en-masse. These are educated people who work providing services, which everyone needs and uses, not clever parasites.
In neoliberal economic terms, they are trying to restore the purchasing power in the markets, which has been destroyed by the misallocation of capital to elites, who are not investing it wisely into the system (their purported function), but allocating it elsewhere and non-productively, due to disorted reward structures (Timmy, Ben and the boys)
let me know when they quit giving all of their pension fund money to wall street to manage, then you/they might have an ounce of credibility
Yeah, this is about the point when they accuse somebody of being a witch, and burn them at the stake.
