Era of Rage Hits American Shores

The douchebag Tea Party has taken to the streets of Wisconsin in an incredibly stupid bid to bring about the end of every protection workers have ever gotten. In their bid to eliminate unions they have unwittingly set the stage for the destruction of the middle class, something I predicted way back at the end of December (ahh the good ole days of 2010). This is what the Republican party brings to the table: the elimination of good jobs, good wages and safety for all Americans. And the Tea Party call us communist. Unions are the only reason we have a middle class and lets look at the real reason behind the protests. Sure 12% hikes in pension and medical care seem high but our medical system is beyond broken and, to be honest, they should be happy to have a pension at all. However, the rule of collective bargaining being eliminated is tantamount to treason and should be fought every step of the way. This method is the reason why unions have let their workers have a livable wage. Those of us not in the government or in a union have seen our wages fall below that of 1970's workers. This is why we should have collective bargaining for all Americans, not the elimination of it. The Tea Party have decided that fascism is the only way to save our country, not that they see it that way of course but when your an inbred motherf#$%er what chance do you have to make rational decisions. These morons helped put in the Republican governor and now he's pissing in the faces of those that helped put him there. Thankfully, protests are four to one against the bill and, if they really wanted to balance the budget, I'll bet there are hundreds of billions of dollars that could be eliminated from worthless programs and bloated government salaries from the higher ups. But no, much like Obama's crap budget, the poor are being singled out. We as a people cannot let this stand and have to start our form of peaceful protests in Washington DC. If a million people showed up and refused to leave until livable wages were guaranteed, that the government would stay the hell out of our lives, that the fourth amendment would be restored, how long would we last. Unlike Egypt, I think the National Guard would forcefully move us out. Similar measures are being said to be implemented soon in Wisconsin. If that's true, the idiots who point to the second amendment as only applying to militias, ie the National Guard, then we as a people would be true subjects with no rights as the guard is being used to suppress free speech. The second amendment is for EVERYONE to have gun to stand up to the tyranny we now face on a regular basis.

In other news, it has come to light that the pretty CBS reporter assaulted in Egypt may not have been gang raped at all. Some sources are still saying that's what happened but the reporter herself has denied any such incident took place. Is this another Pat Tillman/Jessica Lynch hoax?

Republicans are threatening to shut down then government, forgetting what happened in 1994 and catapulting Clinton to a second term. But with the idiot Tea Party behind them will that occur again? The budget needs trimming, especially defense and SS. Both sides are going to have to come to terms with that. Eliminate the payroll cap on SS morons and watch the money flow again. This isn't rocket science and there is hundreds of billions in subsidies that could be cut and other taxes the rich need to pay more of. WE can't. We're broke.
