Huge kudos to the Wisconsin Democrats! They took two seats away from the Repubs in Repub districts. That's a HUGE WIN!
Actually, one of the republican senators has consistently voted with the Dems on unions and workers, so this swings the vote to the democrats. This was the first big Citizens United lecture, where thanks to the right wing Supremes, Ahmadeinejad could send money to Alberta Darling’s campaign and thanks to the Republicans, we’d never even know. Republicans block campaign transparency disclosure act http://www.examiner.com/liberal-in-natio... I can’t believe how the media is trying to paint the loss of two seats as a Republican win.
Shame on them. Taking away "rights" of any kind is a dangerous proposition, add "union" and "collective bargaining" to it, and folks are ready to fight. That's Wisconsin, where it's obvious that Governor Walker's actions were too much, even for some Republicans.
Scott Walker will be out as Wisconsin's Governor in 2012. The Tea Party Movement will not survive 2012. THIS IS ABOUT SURVIVAL OF THE MIDDLE CLASS.
As union membership shrinks, so does the middle class. That is why a Main Street Movement all over the country is fighting to protect collective bargaining and the middle class wages, benefits, and protections it promotes. See chart: http://www.blogforarizona.com/.a/6a00d83... http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2011/0... It's alarming to see what's happened to the middle class, isn't it?
Or does that make you smile?
They were lucky - the close ones showed that the people are not happy with the repubs. In WI, it's apparent the old adage stays - you can fool enough of the people. Two Dems got elected and that ain't bad.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
