The View from Wisconsin: 'Our Political Process has been Stopped by a Mob'

Mark Hemingway   "If you want to know just how unruly the union protests are at the state capitol in Madison, check out this eye-opening account from a Wisconsin political insider over at a Milwaukee radio station:"....
On Thursday, legislators were advised to return to their offices and lock their doors. Mobs roamed the halls, banging on the glass of the doors, pounding on the walls. No one could move in the halls or enter or leave the building. The glass of the Supreme Court's entrance was broken. Legislators were genuinely afraid. Our elected representatives were afraid. In our Capitol.

"Can you imagine the wall-to-wall media coverage if Tea Partiers were acting so disrespectfully?"
