SH>>> I read today that union thugs and their democrat supporters did $7.5   
    SH>>> million damage to their state capitol.  I cannot imagine in my   
    RC>> wildest   
    SH>>> imagination damaging our capitol building.   
      
    I read just now that you are smearing decent union workers and   
    their supporters.   
      
    When a republican makes any such estimate just assume it's a   
    lie. Which it is in this case. Seems even the state backed off   
    on that when a state official responsible for building maintence   
    pointed out that 95% of that estimate was for renovations   
    planned before the protests took place. Then the remaining 5%   
    shrunk to half that.   
      
    That involved profession restorers who said the repairs needed   
    were actually cleanup. Seems just touching the walls requires   
    cleaning. They said to use a cleaner that was essentially...nail   
    polish remover.   
      
    Then the painters and stone masons chimed in. They report all   
    that needs cleaning is some tape residue, which they do all the   
    time. A water based cleaner takes it off easily.   
      
    In the meantime about 60% of Wisconsinites support the union.   
    That and some of the republican senators, 4 at last count, are   
    considered in danger of bolting from Walker's program. Then   
    don't want the disaster Walker is bringing on them.   
      
    RC>> They probably rationalized that Federal Funds would pay for the damages?   
      
    SH> Probably, and while Wisconsinites trash Otto's capitol,   
    SH> this is going on in Klan's front yard...   
      
    You are a nasty little boy, you know that dont' you?   
      
    SH> Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), under heat for invoking Adolf   
    SH> Hitler in talking about anti-union movements in his home   
    SH> state and Wisconsin, has apologized for making the   
    SH> comparison on the Senate floor. "I am passionate about   
      
    It was just a bit extreme, just a bit.   
      
    ...   
      
    SH> And speaking of union thugs and their democrat supporters   
    SH> trashing the capitol, I am reminded that Cigar Willy's   
    SH> staff trashed the White House as they were leaving.  Let   
      
    And that never happened. As you should well know by now. It was   
    a republican lie.   
      
    SH> Republicans act like this and the New York Times would lose   
    SH> its goddam mind.   
      
    Since democrats *DON'T* act like that, it's not ok when   
    Republicans do it.
