The weeks of peaceful, non-violent protest in Wisconsin, for example. Yeah, lots of "physical violence" "beating" and "intimidation" going on there

Down with unions! They are the current fad scapegoat! Kindergarten teachers suck and threaten me! The Republicans told me so!
If you believe that the people are being peaceful and non threatening you really are a fool. Any one ever threaten your life or your family? I know that would not be considered peaceful in my world

You simply can't have a political discussion without calling names, can you?

I've watched tons of YouTube videos and news converage of the protests at Wisconsin, and have talked to friends that attended. Peaceful and non-threatening is a terrific description of the hundreds of thousands of people that attended, and you know it.

Yeah, there are always a few idiots who break the law, and they should be pursued. Were they the majority in Wisconsin? Nope - there were only a few. Out of hundreds of thousands.

So don't try to paint the Wisconsin protests as anything different, as that would be a clear lie, wouldn't it?

You mean like the Tea Baggers on YouTube who talk to the news media about killing the President?

Now there is an independent source. Are you sure President Obama isn't really an alien? Perhaps from one of Saturn's moons....

The real secret is that the black, Kenyan, Muslim side of the family stories are just a distraction for the public. The true, shocking secrets are found within the white, Kansas, rural, American, war veterans side of the family!

Maybe your views align closer to the evil Koch brothers than to president Obama then.

I share quite a few political views with the Koch brothers.

Except for their desire to literally purchase as much of our government as they can, purchase control towards their own self-reward and self-interest.

I don't get it. You don't like a private person contributing their own $ towards a politician or a particular political party to help their interests, but you have no issue with public mandates (ie. required union dues) where a large sum of the money goes towards a particular political party to help them.
