Stealing the Rights of the People, Where is the Tea Party Now?

I do not understand how conservative minded people can support Governor Walker's shameless attempt to restrict the right of his citizens in the guise of balancing the budget.  As a long time fiscal conservative, I agree with the state workers contributing more to their pensions and health care, and as far as I can see, so do they, but this blatant attack on their right for representation has nothing to do with fiscal conservatism.  Tea Part people are for people's rights; I read the lenghty bill and see a lot of places where the Wisconsin government is setting its self up for some serious cronyism.

Take for example: no approval or certification of the public service commission is necessary for a public utility to purchase, or contract for the operation of, such a plant, and any such purchase is considered to be in the public interest and to comply with the criteria for certification of a project".

I work for New York's State government, and snippets like that can go a long way to sending Wisconsin into a pay for play nightmare.  Tea Party people are fighters for the people, they should denounce the union busting nonsense and get on the side of the people.  It is time to balance the budget, read the bill, balance the budget in Wisconsin, do not let shifty politicians hide behind the Tea Party's morals.

Aba-jem-a-Nut-Job

I am not sure how to spell that fool's name but it sounds right if you sound it out.  He came out today saying how the Egyptian revolution is similar and sparked on by the Iranian revolution 35 years ago.  This gave him a chance to praise the ousting of the US in the Middle East and also gave him a chance to slam Israel by threatening them with the ultimate Islam jihad.

Another enjoyable moment was when a caller from Alabama on the Sean Hannity show gave her opinion on Obama's positive take on the Egyptian revolution because he hosted Muslim people at the White house on the first day Ramadan.  He did do something for passover too, so either he is secretly courting Jews and Muslims or thios is just another of his tricks in his Jihadist playbook.

Hussein, Noreiga and now Mubarak, Our Dictators

Now the conservative right wing is protecting our latest dictator.  The excuses are numerous, my favorite excuse is the one elegantly explained on the savage Weiner program tonight, Obana is a secret Muslim Brotherhood member and this is all part of some great plan from his Regime.  I always laugh when I hear Weiner talk about the Regime.  Another conservative belief for protecting the Mubarak government is any change in government will surely end up in an attack on Isreal.  Another conspiracy theory is the intervention by Saudi Arabia because they know the Muslim radicals will ignite the region.  Remember as long as the Mubarak government stays in power,everything in the region will stay as peaceful as it always was.

Mubarak is just another in a long line of dictators we have supported before cutting them loose when they weren't useful to us.  Who remembers Sadam when he was our man in the region or how about Noreiga when we were interested in the canal.  When will the conservatives realize they should be on the side of the protesters, people who arre interested in free elections, freedom of speech, rights afforded to them by God, yea all these people worship the same God, imagine that.

Muslim Brotherhood Attacks

If you listen to Sean Hannity you would think that the Muslim Brotherhood were marching in the streets in Cairo, ready to attack the US embassy.  He has his listeners convinced the spineless Obama is secreting meeting with them because one it is all part of his master plan to install sharia law in this country or two because he is so afraid  of these guy that it is better to welcome this band of revolutionaries.  The Muslim Brotherhood is not a viable contender in this revolution.  Egyptians want what our American right-wing wants, a freely elected democratic country.  Unfortunately for them, hawkish right wingers only want that for this country, unless you are the third largest oil source in the world and then your dictator must go.  Yes, I do mean Sadam.  Constantly, you hear Sean and the gang, comparing Egypt to Iran for some unknown reason.  It might be a guess but I am thinking Sean never been to Egypt.  If he did go, he would see that Egypt has more in common with Italy than Iran.  Wait, Egypt is Muslim, Iran is Muslim, Egypt is the same as Iran.  Turkey has a freely elected government, and I think women still roam he streets freely.  Right, these are Mediterranean countries and not Persian gulf countries.

The motto of the Muslim Brotherhood is;
 "Allah is our objective. The prophet is our leader. The Koran is our law. Jihad is our way. And dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope. Allahu Akbar." Do you think Egyptians believe in that nonsense?  Egyptians want what we have, they see on the Internet, TV and hear it on the radio.  To try to compare them to Persians is insulting to them and to try to compare them to the illiterate Afghans is even more foolish.
