   If you think you’ve seen everything, check this out:
   “Strange But True Provisions of Collective Bargaining”
   http://walker.wi.gov/journal_media_detail.asp?locid=177&prid=5676

   No matter how jaded you may be, I can almost guarantee you’ll be shocked.

   Some of the choicer items:
   A Year’s Worth of Pay for 30 Days of Work
   Teachers Receiving Two Pensions
   Almost $10,000/Year for Doing Nothing
   $6000 Extra for Carrying a Pager
   The $150,000 Bus Driver
   Viagra for Teachers

   And people wonder why Wisconsin is broke!

   Rush had an interesting take on it today. Here’s a transcript, talking about how quiet everything is today, now that they’ve lost on their “principled stance.”

   Good for Scott Walker. Someone in politics knows who they work for!

   just emailed the political editor at the LA Times to ask why there is NOT ONE STORY or mention of these death threats.

   Please do the same:

     I see the “happy union town” Detroit took notice on Obama’s about face on civility:

     There’s quiet little mentions in some papers, they have a suspect who’s admitted sending the threats but won’t release the name. This tells me it’s NOT a tea partier 😀
