First words out of her mouth, "What up, Madison, Wisconsin?!"
She also incorporated a "WTF?"
The rally was sponsored by the Koch brothers' Americans for Prosperity.
Tea Party supporters were outnumbered (CBS News).
"Thug" was only used once (that I heard).
Palin said union supporters "trash your capitol and vandalize business."
She also stated, "A pension is a promise that must be kept," and that Scott Walker believed that, too--obviously oblivious to Walker's budget that will reevaluate and possibly change the current defined (traditional) benefit plan to defined contribution--in essence, a 401K-like fund that could completely deplete. (WREA Newsletter) It appears Walker's budget bill also raises serious questions about the all-too-real possibility of him raiding an existing public worker pension fund, as well (WisconsinReporter.com), which, um, would be illegal.
Other than that, it was business as usual--boo Obama, boo unions, yay patriotism, etc.
Annoying?
You betcha.

Sarah Palin? Oblivious? Sounds about right.
ReplyDeleteScott Walker? Do something that's illegal? That also sounds about right.
I'm enjoying reading this blog!
Thanks. I just wish there weren't so many horrible things to write about...
