Today Show Calls GOP 'Surprise' Vote in Wisconsin an 'Outrage'

Media Research Center  "In the ensuing Yang piece, headlined: "Outrage In Wisconsin, Senate Republicans Cut Union Rights, Bypass Democrats" Yang never bothered to mention the reason Republicans passed the bill "without Democrats" was because they were hiding out, but he did make sure to include footage of protesters repeatedly chanting "Shame!""

Wall Street Journal   "Gov. Scott Walker on Friday signed a bill eliminating most collective-bargaining rights for the state's public-employee unions, setting a precedent other states could follow in the broadest move in decades to curb union rights.
"The bill's passage Thursday by the state's Republican-controlled Assembly in a 53-42 vote ended a three-week stalemate that saw the state's 14 Senate Democrats flee to Illinois in a bid to stymie the measure and tens of thousands of people protest at the Capitol."

Bravery and Common Sense Prevail in Wisconsin  "The courage of the Wisconsin Senate conservatives cannot be understated. Before the vote, lawmakers were threatened with death and physical violence. After the vote, thousands of protesters stormed into the capitol building, ignoring announcements from police that the building was closed. Once inside, and at great risk to the public welfare, activists handcuffed some doors to the capitol shut. When security escorted the Senators to another building, a Democrat tipped off the mob, which then surrounded their cars and tried to break their windows as Senators returned home."

Cowards, More Cowards, and Heroes  “The Senate Democrats have had three weeks to debate this bill and were offered repeated opportunities to come home, which they refused,” Walker said. “In order to move the state forward, I applaud the Legislature’s action today to stand up to the status quo and take a step in the right direction to balance the budget and reform government.”

Anti-bullying conference

Bullying really isn't what it used to be   "Never mind that the Leftists clamoring for social justice for ‘poor' and underperforming students, have systematically destroyed the best means to academic success, character, and ending bigotry -- the power of parents, faith, and personal responsibility and accountability.
"It's nearly impossible to question the billions being funneled into failing programs and ‘well-meaning' social engineering, let alone the true motives of a Kevin Jennings, without being called a bigot. This certainly isn't the first progressive program based on that premise; certainly not the last to use bullying, in more ways than one."

Union Myths

Thomas Sowell  "Nothing shows the utter cynicism of the unions and the politicians who do their bidding like the so-called "Employee Free Choice Act" that the Obama administration tried to push through Congress. Employees' free choice as to whether or not to join a union is precisely what that legislation would destroy."





Mosques Flourish While Churches Perish

Raymond Ibrahim   "Such, then, is the plight of Christians and their churches in the Muslim world — and such is the irony: while mosques, some of which breed radicalization and serve as terrorist bases, start dotting America's landscape, churches are on their way to becoming extinct in the Middle East, the cradle of Christianity. More pointedly, as America allows Muslims to build a mega-mosque near Ground Zero — which was annihilated by Islamists partially radicalized in mosques — America's "moderate friends" in the Muslim world blatantly persecute Christians and their churches."




Friend vs. Friend in Obama's America

American Thinker  "The media has repeatedly pushed the idea that TEA Partiers, Republicans, and conservatives take issue with the President's agenda because of racism, thereby squelching a legitimate debate of ideas.  Many dismiss this as just another attempt to devalue conservatism by a liberal biased media.  While that may be true we must admit that it has been effective and take note how it plays out in real life."

A flow of anti-Israel poison -- from Israel, to Britain, to the heart of the U.S. capital

American Thinker  "Western culture -- whether expressed in books, plays, movies -- increasingly spews anti-Israel hatred across the globe. It's become a radical-chic campaign by a growing number of writers, directors, actors and other performers to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish state -- often laced with not-so-subtle anti-Semitic stereotypes.
