Here it is. My speech to the 300 plus Okies gathered to support Wisconsin workers and unions. It was a great crowd and we even had a couple of tea party nuts show up and heckle us a bit.

4. Thank you
I was pretty nervous and we had had more than one speaker who had not exactly fired up the crowd. I have to remember to not chew gum when I am rabble rousing :)

6. Good speech.
Republicans and their political operation at Fox "news" needs to stop using the hard working middle class as scapegoats for problems they did not create. How did Fox contribute to this mess? They constantly supported and never questioned the Bush administration when it gave huge tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires while starting two wars and passed another huge entitlement program, by constantly lying to its viewers about what's going on in this country, by doing the bidding of the elite.

if TV news shows covered real news anymore.

Nice speech!

12. Inspirational
Thank you for your speech. I was there, and after being there
and experiencing the positive vibes, I wanted to get up there
and say some words of support.

Keep up the great work!

Thanks Wildman,
I'm going to visit the DU more frequently. I get some opinions published in the "Not-Daily-Oklahoman-Conservative-Rag" paper on occasion too.
Keep up the Good Fight!

16. I think the opposition research would destroy my chances of being elected
and I live in Oklahoma so those 300 or so people are probably the only ones who would actually vote for me. Thanks for the endorsement though.
