Below is a video of Megyn Kelly today, interviewing Jesse Jackson… a man who hates being left out of the limelight. Highlights? All of a sudden, all those protestor are unemployed teachers, with homes in foreclosure. OMG… the sob story, the BS, the extent to which Jackson will go, no matter how embarrassingly false.
The only layoffs that would be occuring as a result of this budget/legislative battle would be the fault of the AWOL Dems, living on donation funds by the Democrat party and progressive fundraisers. And, in fact, as Madison’s own blogger, Thomas J. Mertz at AMPS points out, there’s no shortage of layoffs that have already been going on. What he doesn’t mention is that all are totally unrelated to this hyped up event. oops….
What they are about is budget problems… the very same budget problems that Walker and the legislature are trying to address.
Then we have Clinton’s former Sec’y of Labor, Robert Reich, praising the rise of what he wants to call “The People’s Party”. According to Reich’s hyperbole, the method of passage used for this bill exposes Walker as all about busting unions, and not about the budget. Of course, the problem with that is that the bill was passed pretty much in it’s original form, since Wisconsin’s Fiscal Legislative Bureau noted, after consultation, that most of the issues could not be considered “appropriations” in nature.
But then truth is the first casualty of political propaganda.
Frankly, I’m nauseated at the entitlement privileged protestors – employed, being paid and blessed with guaranteed, extraordinarily high pension packages – screaming in the streets for more when so much of the nation is unemployed. As far as Jackson’s claim, he may want to square that batch of lies with the fact that unemployment in Wisconsin is at 7.4%… the envy of so many other states.
Needless to say, Jesse’s lost it with his rhetoric and outright lies. Not really anything new on the news front. But I’m sure there are many out there who will be willing to buy this stolen watch for a pretty price.
Another more than interesting highlight. Kelly corners Jackson not once, but twice, on using rules to pass O’healthcare. Jackson apparently feels the “goal” justifies the means for O’healthcare, and immediately returns to his “social justice” arguments.
So… here’s your laugh for the day. The new sob story that is the poor, abused public sector in Wisconsin.
Vietnam era Navy wife, indy/conservative, and an official California escapee now residing as a red speck in the sea of Oregon blue.
man
The man has no conscience and his kid is a moron. Kind of verifies Charles Darwin’s theory.
You have got to know Martin Luther King is just waiting with a bat for Jessie and his ilk to cross over. Going to whoop him and them senseless if he is not dizzy from all the full gainers Jackson has caused him to perform over the years.
Jackson is scum, always has been. It’s all about posturing to him. The facts, however interesting, are irrelevant.
I listened to that interview yesterday and think they are over playing their hand….again and again, they never learn. He had the same threat message that Trumpka did, might stir up a few more for their mind numbed mob, the general population isn’t going to want Madison mania all across the country.
Seems like almost every word out of JJ’s mouth is hyperbola.
Just the opposite has actually happened.
The Gov. has rescinded all of the layoff notices.
And the Madison capital building is under control.
Gov. Walker signs the bill today.
Amazing how the scum always comes out of the woodwork, isn’t it? Nothing like one of the leading race baiters and haters standing up to get his moment of glory (sick, isn’t it?). The man is nothing more than a racist pig who’s only aim is to see how much he can coerce out of ignorant politically correct companies who do not have the balls to stand up to the extortion he, Sharpton and the other espouse. Disgusting!
Yet, the one thing you will never hear come out of either Jackson’s mouth, or Michael Moore-on’s mouth, is how they are going to redistribute their own personal wealth, both men having an estimated wealth of $10 million.
Michael Moore-on refuses to use union labor on his movies, and sends his kids to a private school with non-union teachers. Moore-on’s last couple of movies have been monumental flops. Jackson, well he is just trying to stay relevant, but that battle was lost a long time ago. Maybe he should read the memo.
Notice how he had to go as soon as he was hit with a gotcha question.
What a bozo.
Jessie jackson seems to represent a festering culture in the united states. The culture of imaginary victims.
Jessie jackson; don’t complain to me about yours or anyone else’s personal issues! Its not the fault of many that a few lack self reliance…
