JS doubters should be watching Daily Show tonight...

John Oliver's bit on Wisconsin was spot on.

[MadBadger]

1. Oliver criticized those who called Walker Hitler and a Dictator

That wont sit well with some here, no matter how right Oliver is. Walker isnt a dictator as everything he is doing he is seeking legislative approval...hes just a dick.

2. He absolutely nailed it on Walker's reasons for taking away collective bargaining though

3. He was not elected to take away rights. That is a dictatorial move.

[MadBadger]

4. The legislature actually is taking away those rights, not him

While he may be spearheading the effort, the fact that he cant do it himself proves hes not a dictator

[NuclearDem]

5. Which is why I find these Egypt = Wisconsin comparisons nonsense

There wasn't an option for Egyptian legislators to flee the country and prevent a vote; Mubarak could take away whatever rights he wanted, whenever he wanted.

7. He may have to deal with the pesky legislative process, but he's still a dictator.

He won't negotiate with the labor groups; it's his way or the highway. He's threatening the Democrat 14 that if they don't come back soon, there will be tens of thousands of layoffs.

He's blocking access to pro-union websites:

6. The Planned Parenthood segment was inspired as well
