3. Yeah. Actually I think all these labor protests and rallies........
and their ignoring by the MSM have hopefully put THAT RW chestnut to rest also. Except in the fevered mind of the Faux Noise crowd anyway.

Liberal fucking media, my ass. Well said.

You're probably watching the news, that's why. Why don't you know this?

13. No TV. And I work from 4 to 8pm.
So when I click on a thread that gives me something out of context, as if I've read every other single thread here all day, it's a little frustrating.

8. For starters Michigan
the Capitol

And yes Madison.

I have been going over nuclear tweets, but get union tweets too.

If the media starts paying attention to this,,, bend over and kiss your ass... GODZILLA!

5. Micheal Moore covered the one in Lansing live. It just ended in 10
misdemeanor trespass and one felony/someone tried to enter the building through a window. The 5 who stayed in the building were very calm and committed. It was inspirational to see their resolve, but there weren't enough of them to control the situation.

There protest was against the right of the governor to dissolve any local municipality and appoint anyone he wants. It is another Animal Farm move by the Tea Party. God help us.

12. You're reading DU...what threads are you actually following?
It's all here. That's my point; DU is a far better news source than the "real" news. LBN is one of the best sources for news online, IMHO. Lots of different sources in one place.

10. He's talking about today's actions in East Lansing
and in Washington, DC, where Wisconsin protetsors followed WI GOPers to a fund raiser with their corporate masters.

Still going on I think, in DC.

There is a thread on this page clearly announcing this happening in DC.

11. Why are we permitting the financiers and the NY bankers to
get rich again while average Americans are fighting amongst each other for what is left? This is the true outrage and the press and media are saying nothing to incite and direct the outrage to Wall Street. Why?
