Wisconsin to Unions; "Get lost!"

[Sgt Schultz]

LOSERS



WEAC spent almost a half million dollars in one day on behalf of Democratic candidates.

The fact that you get some sick thrill out of posting this makes you a very stupid motherfucker...

Enjoy your states demise!

So I heard that KKKoch prostitute Kathy Nickolaus was trying to steal yet another election. How many blatant thefts can one treasonous cunt get away with?

Seriously, she puts Cruella Harris and Uncle Tom Blackwell to shame.

Not to mention all the serious fascist bullshit that WalKKKer pulled to keep voters from the polls in the first place.

Even after all of that, two apologists for predatory capitalism went down. If they actually hold Nickolaus accountable this time and audit the fuck out of her mafia operation, they will find the third. And WalKKKer is going down in January. Even you ain't going to deny that, Schultzy. Motherfucking prick can't go anywhere in the state without getting booed off the stage.

Democracy Died First in Wisconsin – Long Live the Oligarchs
by Thom Hartmann

The Wisconsin recall election was the first major test of the new era in American politics.

That new era began in January of 2010 when the US Supreme Court ruled in Citizens United v. FEC that the political voice of We The People was no longer as important as the voices of billionaires and transnational corporations.

Now we know the result, and it bodes ill for both 2012 and for the tattered future of small-d democracy in our republic.

A few of America’s most notorious oligarchs – including the Koch and the DeVos (Amway fortune) billionaires – as well as untraceable millions from donors who could as easily be Chinese government-run corporations as giant “American” companies who do most of their business and keep most of their profits outside the US – apparently played big in this election.

I say “apparently” because the Supreme Court has ruled that we no longer have the right to know who is really funding our election commercials, or even our candidates themselves.

Thanks to an irrational and likely illegal Supreme Court ruling, we have moved into an era of oligarch-run politics. As much as $40 million of our oligarch’s money was spent in Wisconsin in a handful of local races – a testing laboratory for strategies that will now be used against Democrats nationwide in 2012.

And so now we enter the battle of the oligarchs over the next fifteen or so months.

As the old saying goes, when the elephants fight, the mice get trampled. In this case, the mice aren’t just the voters. It’s democracy itself.

America is now – demonstrably, as proven by Wisconsin – just a few years away from the possibility of a totally corrupted, totally billionaire- and corporate-controlled political system. Political scientists call it oligarchy.

The Citizens United election experiment is over, and the oligarchs won. Long live the oligarchy.

Wasn't Obama in favor of that ruling?

Shittyzens United? Definitely not!

You got Soros on the left and Koch on the right. Shit what are we to do?

[jhale667]

Soros is nothing like the KKKoch brothers. Stop listening to Glenn Beck, FFS.
