vote for tom barrett for wisconsin governor...vote today...polls are now open !!
if ya are going to vote democratic i will get ya there if ya don't have a way and ya live in the (prairie du sac / sauk city / baraboo) area!!!!!
message me if ya need a ride to the polls to vote for barrett, and democrats???
Already voted. For WALKER! Sent him a chunk of $$ too!! Thanks for wasting $20M in WI tax payer funds for this mess. I hope the unions go broke given their significantly reduced membership - ADIOS!
I see Ed strikes again..Is this a$$ ever going to be right?? Wht is wrong with MSNBC that they hire such stooges..
Where is the polling that independent have broken for Barrett?? is this Ed just giving his opinion?
It's Ed's version of trying to keep people interested as he's rearranging the chairs on the Titanic.
It's good ole' jockstraps feeble attempt to sway voters to his narrow minded way of thinking.
His impact has the same effect as a grain of sand on the beach.
Your User Name actually fits you because of your "stupid" comment. I'd keep my mouth shut with a handle like that one.
Republican women should be soooo proud of their T-Party Republicans in congress today! They voted down the bill which would provide women with equal pay for equal work!
I'm sure all those single parent homes, headed by women who make 23% less than men for the same job, will remember to vote for THEM in November!
Ah, I don't use my mouth....... I use my fingers to type with.
Next you may want to learn some Italian...
I am proud of them..
why don't you go ask the Obama administration why the average female makes 18% less than the average male in the Executive Branch?
Go to irs.gov.
There you can learn linda that ages 30-55 non-professionals, women make around 8-10% more than their male counter parts.
Stormguy, Well, I am not proud of them. All anyone needs to know about Republicans is that TO A PERSON they voted down this bill.
It's A: A way to obstruct Obama.
And B: It shows how they see women as second class citizens.
Do you have proof of what you said about Obama's administration? Show me if you do.
Ever heard of the minimum wage??? it is the same for both sex's.
Next, this bill would take away the ability for companies to pay employees based on
"merit" not sex.
Government has no business in telling companies how to pay their employees.
There are in fact laws against this type of thing, go to EEOC...
Serious question India...Why is this law needed since we already have the Lilly Ledbetter law and all of the other laws related to equal pay? What does this law do that all of the others do not?
Proof..Even though some of the Libs on this website will not back up their claims and accusations with proof (LARRY AND WHOM), I will be happy to provide you with my source on this matter.
http://www.politicalwrinkles.com/president-executive-branch/25979-obama-white-house-pays-women-less-than-men-records-show.html
guess it shows you just why they need this bill, oh and don't think the President has any say in pay rates.
another reason he has backed this bill and others that HELP Americans no matter race, gender, or sexual oration!
well you know being the American President and all.
Storm. Please us where I said a damn word about the WH pay. You might also want to see if that is the scale set by Obama or a previous President or maybe the congressiona budget office.
Pilot...yeah, that makes sense. Everyone will now suddenly come into compliance because of this one law.
Maybe enforcement of the existing laws is the answer...just saying.
The president does not have the power to enforce and comply with the laws of the land? Interesting perspective...
Larry...you never said a single word about pay. I am still trying to get you to provide a link to the MAP that you said existed which proves (according to you) that the Zimmerman-Martin shooting took place OUTSIDE of the gated community on a public sidewalk. In another post, you chastised someone else for not providing links to statements they made, so I know that you being the ethical man you claim to be that you would never expect more of others than you are willing to do yourself. So...where is it?
Just saying....
The stalking took place outside of the gated community. The shooting took place inside, which is why Zimmerman had to get out of the car to follow him.
I saw the map on TV. I don't know if it can be found on the web. Have you tried?
I am personally happy that we have the Republicans on record voting for unfairness.
and your proof that the stalking took place outside the community is what? Where in any report does it say that Zimmerman started following him outside of the community.
Put up or shut up
Just saying...
And here I thought you watched TV news. I saw it on 3 differant stations. Like Chris said, don't know if it can be found on the web. I'm not going to waste my time trying to show you a thing. You wouldn't believe it any way.
he did first see him at the store, then started following him.
and your proof of that is what?
Don't just say that you saw it on three stations or that I can find it myself, you guys set the standard of having to back up your statements with proof...so do it.
Put up or shut up...
Just saying...
Because, you brainless little bigot, YOU CAN'T DRIVE A CAR ON THE SIDEWALK .
And I found it on the web in 2 seconds.
But it may be hard for Storm to do complex searches like that. It doesn't involve spewing hate. It involves thinking, something the little bigot isn't good at.
Oh yeah, I forgot, there are not roads inside of a gated community for people to drive on or park their cars. They all have to park outside and then walk in...
What a moron...
Since neither of you 3rd grade drop outs could do the work, guess what..a Republican had to pick up the slack for you Democrats...AGAIN...here is the map...and guess what...there are roads inside the gated community. Wow ...what a surprise..
http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/evidence-that-trayvon-martin-doubled-back
and your proof is where?
Put up or Shut up...
Just saying...
You are really, really, an idiot. And a propagandist.
Here's my post from 7:24:
Then, you post a link at 8:11, and say a Republican had to find it.
Wow. As if there was any doubt how totally full of @!$%# you are.
Good response Chris...when you can't compete with fact, continue with the name calling. Seems like your typical game plan.
too bad you are all talk and no fact whatsoever.
Put up or shut up...
Just saying...
What thread are you referring to? There is no 7.24 or 8.11 on this thread and that is where you and I have been having this discussion. My link is posted on 2.22 of this thread.
Have you been smoking crack again?
My original request from LARRY was because he had chastised someone else for making a statement and not backing it up with a link proving his point. Yet, Larry can make some stupid accusation and not have to post any support himself.
You, and Larry, then come up with this BS story about how Zimmerman started following Martin OUTSIDE the gated community and the attack took place on a public sidewalk, Your logic was that cars can't drive on a sidewalk.
Neither you or Larry have yet to provide any proof of your theory. Surprise Surprise. And I had to do your work for you...Surprise Surprise.
Put up or shut up...
Just Saying...
I'm sorry. The numbers refer to the time when it was posted. I realize that's a little complex for you to understand, especially considering the number of the repost is clearly easy to see.
But it''s just more of the double-talk and bull@!$%# that you excel at.
He's talking about the time, you moron. It's right there. Can't believe you missed it. Well, yes I can. Oops, you beat me to it Chris!
and it still comes down to the fact that you can not back up your statement that the attack took place outside of the gated community....
Additionally, there is no post at 7:24 on this thread.
Put up or shut up...
just saying..
Is storm still trying to defend Z with his coloring book example of law that they give 3rd graders again. That is about the limit of storms knowledge on legal matters. Oh and storm don't try to watch shows like CSI or Matlock, those are not based on reality either so they will be no help in mounting your legal defense of Z.
Whom...once again you open your mouth and show how stupid you are for not keeping up with what is going on. This discussion was on the accusation that Larry made on another thread about how ...supposedly...Zimmerman began "stalking" Martin outside of the gated community and how the attack took place on a "public" sidewalk.
Of course, as usual, Larry could not provide the proof to support his claim. Does it matter where it took place from a legal perspective, very doubtful. However, this is just another example of how people like Larry continue to spew their crap and expect it to be accepted as fact.
Vote today Wisconsin...the whole world is watching the outcome of this election today! Go Democrats!!!!
The whole world???
Stupidita, Oh, you didn't know they have TV all over the world? They sure do! You'd be amazed!
Probalbly unaware of the satalites floating around up there. doesn't understand they transmit signals to them and they are transmitted around the
globe. OOOps, world for those that are not informed.Larry, LOL! Did you hear that the T-Party voted down the equal pay for equal work bill? Yeah, Republicans seem to be working for the Democratic party a lot lately!
Thanks, you economic idiots! Good job! I'm sure you won the hearts of women with THAT vote!!!
Yea sure, I can see the bedouin salt traders in northern Africa setting around the camp fire watching the ed show on their 60" LED TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Capital B for Bedouin. No, probably not. I think mainly he was referring to the industrialized world.
Capital E for Ed. Capital S when used in Ed Show. It appears you got Africa correct so you do know how to use the shift key.
Just trying to help you with your English. You thought I didn't care! I care!
Capital I Don't Care...
take a time out their grammar cop....
Next we speak American in this country not english..
PS, Hens set. Bedouins SIT. They would be sitting around their campfires, honey.
Oops..got you again: Capital E English! Gosh, you keep me busy!
Did you know that the planet Venus will transit the sun in a few hours? I enjoy teaching, you must forgive me.
You need to bone up on your math skills next.
Furthermore the english language changes every 3 years or so.
100 years ago the word today was 2 words to day..
Can you tell me how many words are in the oxford dictionary???
which number is larger 8.2 or 7.6???
India. Some people just can't be tought. I saw the Senate vote. Been bouncing around here, FB and the other blog today.
Larry, Yeah, I see that! I have to watch my dinner so I must go till later. I have no more time to humour Stupidita.
LOL , Stupidita: Honey, Look it up. When I come back I refuse to let you keep me off message. India out.
She's all yours, Larry. LOL (For the rest of the night!)
Incredible.........
Does stupid know there is a planet Venus?
Jeez, India. I don't want her. I don't think anybody does.
What's the matter Larry? You don't like cross-dressers? ;)
Can't wait to see Ed's head explode tonight when Walker wins. He has spent the last year promoting this recall. His influence is as low as his ratings.
Oh here we go again with the typical Fox misinformed squad.
Whomit, Let's change that! Do you like my black swan?
And your IQ is as large as your shoe size.
What concerns me about the outcome of this election is the message it will send to the entire country. If Walker wins, the message will be, "The one who pays the piper calls the tune."
For those of you who find this appealing, may I remind you that Democracy was never meant to be for sale to the highest bidder. This is not what the founding fathers had in mind. Indeed, this was something they, and others who came after them, warned us about.
We need to repeal Citizens United before all hope of Democracy in America is lost.
Errr..umm...we're a Republic.
Are not that is a GOP talking point reserved for those who know nothing about Governments.
WBOB, Well, Don't you think Democracy belongs in our Republic?
I always have! All these years, I was sure that was the idea!! Leave it to Indiana to tell me I am wrong.
Except I'm not.
The USA is not a "Democracy"!!!!!!! The USA is a Constitutional Representative Government.
And it is the public that elects the "Representatives"...
Where on earth did you people go to school????
the founders of this country purposely did not make this a Democracy so that we could avoid situations like what is happening now.
If we are Democracy, and 50.1 % of the people believe that they should be given free 528I BMW's, are the rest of the people in the country supposed to pay for that?
If we are a Democracy and 50.1% of the people vote that they should receive a 3000sf house on a lake front lot, are the rest of the people in the country supposed to pay for that?
If we are a Democracy and 50.1% of the people vote that they should not have to ever work again in their life, are the rest of the people supposed to pay for that?
Just saying...
LOL must have been 300 times better then the school you went to or you would have known that the term you used as provided to you by liberals is just a fancy way of saying democratic republic which is a combination of both a republic and a democracy.
LOl!!! Stupidita, #5.4 Some of us went to school in England, some in Mexico, some in America, some in Canada...some in Italy,.... . all over the place! Some went to TASIS!
You are so amusing. You try so hard. It's a trait I admire.
MSME here.... What you packin????
Hillarious!
whomitmay?....a talking point? That's your retort?....LOL!
yeah...right!
What a loser...All up in arms re Citizens United...Crying because the unions are finally getting some opposition?? Nary a peep before CU when the unions spent so much re candidates etc etc...whats good for the goose...lmao
But we must remember. The Republicans care about money and power. They don't care about people. They don't care what happens, as long as they get the most important things to the. Money and power.
Tell that to Jon Corzine.....
Ever heard of senator Kohl? the dude that owns Kohl's...
Now go and check to see who is the richest in congress..
I don't believe I ask who was richest. I don't give a sh*t. I made a statement. I'm sorry you can't understand.
So liberals don't like money & power????
Wake up already dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where did I say Liberals didn't like money and power? We just don't see it as the most important thing in our lives like Republicans do. We're all leaving the same way. Dead. Life's guarantee. And we will all leave with nothing. You can't take all your toys and money with you. Sorry.
You can't take all your toys and money with you. Sorry
Tell that to King Tutankhamun...
The reason to build wealth is to pass it down to the next generation.
Economic freedom is the thing you liberals hate the most...
Move to cuba.
Larry...what I care about is that map you talked about, yet you have never been able to produce it. Is that just another one of your lies?
And just what map have I talked about? If I did, it's must be none of your business. I thought even you could find WI, but I must be mistaken. And feel free to ask me if I give a rats a$$.
Just to demonstrate what a small child you are, storm, I googled "Zimmerman stalking map" and I got multiple versions on the first try.
But then, you didn't want it to be true, did you?
Chris, you sure he know how to use google? But he wouldn't believe it if he did see it.
He'll say it's left-wing conspiracy.
The map showing that Zimmerman attacked Martin OUTSIDE of the gated community...you made the accusation...prove it...
All of the maps I see show ALL of the events taking place inside of the gated community...Larry made the comment, it is time for him to prove it..
Put up or shut up..
Just saying...
It'll be a sad day for America if Walker wins today...IMO
This is about big money buying elections and elected officials. You've all seen the audio / video of Walker telling his big doners what his plans are...it's all to benefit big business and screw the average worker. I sure hope people show that it doesn't matter how much money is spent...it's you that's in charge.
Sandra,#7 If he should win, we'd all better hit our knees and pray that what happens in WI, stays in Wisconsin!!
Sandra, Being a Canadian, are you familiar with Bill C377? It is sponsored by conservative MP Russ Hiebert. I am curious as to how that is playing out.
I'm Canadian also & listening to the Reps, I thank God that I don't live in America. How a guy like Walker & the other t-baggers ever got elected, is beyond my comprehention! Why do people vote for Reps & some Blue Dog Dems? It seems they vote against their own values & interests, unless of course your rich?
That's what we keep telling them.
Fitzgerald I sent a shamwow to Scott Walker via United Parcel Service. The tailgating has already started at Tom Barrett's Victory party. Stupid teabaggers
Leave it to the liberals to get out over their skis....
The voting is Heavy !!! Over the last couple of week's i have talked to alot of People here in WI. I noticed that the sentiment of some of his supporter's putting issue's aside, They just can't go along with the thought of Divide and Conquer, They don't share that belief or have those kind's of morals or values. Good People that just don't want that association, Yes I am for Barret/Mitchell WE all haveto Work together live next to each other, and in time of crisis, Help each other as we have alway's done, Let's not forget who WE are, We are Wisconsinites !!!
Is Walker's first name "Perp"? as in Perp Walk? Why vote for a man under Federal indictment?
Vote for Barrett - don't embarass yourselves folks.
He is not under federal indictment...
That is a leftwingnut line of Bull$hit...
The left complains about a robocall telling people not to vote if they already have, yet they spread false rumors about the Republican candidate...what a bunch of hypocrites...
Dirty tricks exist equally on both side...I don't like it from either side..
Just saying..
The Reps wrote the book when it comes to "dirty tricks". They have a lust & need for power & will do anything (literally) for it. Listening to them makes me gag (literally).
I think the whole concept of dirty tricks began with the Democrats in Chicago a long time ago.
He may not be under inditement, but he's the target of a federal investigation. Try saying that is a left wing trick.
"The left complains about a robocall telling people not to vote if they already have,"
LOL as if that's what it said. man you couldn't get any thing straight even if you had a ruler. or you seem to have problems competing sentences as well.
guess that's called cherry picking.
but the both of you make a haft a$$ tag team.
There is a HUGE difference between an indictment and an investigation...
Pilot...I notice how you completely skipped over the part of the Democrats lying about Walker regarding the love child and the indictment...nice selective indignation.
LOL what?
10.2 said nothing about that. heck try keeping your cherry picking in line ok.
and well how do you know there inst a indictment waiting for the final few T`s being crossed and i`s being dotted. and well i have to maybe learn in the he will be indicted side, just the facts lean that way.
but guess all this semi off topic you are trying to run might have a little to do with why the Independence are breaking for Barrett which is the topic.
It is what storm and the other trolls are paid to do, stop discussions of topics that put the GOP in a bad light.
You guys are so full of BS it is amazing that Ed doesn't use brown as his main color on this website. 10.2 does actually talk about the falsehoods that are being spread about the Republican candidate, it just did not give specifics. I apologize for not making it clear enough...I forgot that I was dealing with Democrats who need everything clearly spelled out for them.
Using your logic, I could say that Obama is under indictment for federal tax evasion. How do you know there is not an indictment that is waiting for the final few T's to be crossed and i's dotted?
the final polls tonight will tell one way or the other.
I love listening to you! You are such a loser. I can see why you keep getting your contract renewed, people love to tune you in to listen to you whine, cry and bable like a drunken idiot.
Keep up the good work!
I just want to say...For the person who assumed the election cost $20m....it wasn't that much and it was Walkers fault...The dems. wanted to wait till Nov...when we would of had the presidential election...WHERE IT WOULD OF BEEN FREE...if you want to point a finger for the so called $20m it cost for the election which I doubt it cost that much...BLAME WALKER! he picked the date...he knew Barrett wouldn't be able to raise that kinda money especially since he has all kinds of right wing @!$%#s supporting him from outta state...HE is using WI to get national publicity...and the crapy thing is now all the other right wing states can get away with taking our rights away...cuz this @!$%# got away with it...honestly I live in a small town but im so disapionted most people who complain about government don't do a damn thing about it! I was 198 when i voted today at about 3pm and so i doubt no more then 250 people voted in my town of about 7 or 8,000 and I think thats crap..if your going to complain about government then you need to do something about it or don't complain at all! And expecially the people who are benifiting from the state...I mean damn I know who people getting state benifits and still voted for Walker how stupid is that? I have lost faith in people today over there stupidity!
Typical Leftie response...it is always someone else's fault.
maybe you just backed the wrong candidate...
Just saying...
Umm no maybe you can't spot a bad liar? If people would go and look at what is suppose to be public records it proves his lies...the amount of debt we were in before he took office which is ALOT lower then he says it was...The amount of jobs he actually helped create...Numbers don't lie but people do...my father was a union president for about 20 years...I know how unions work and what good they can do..That is my point exactly people vote and have no real idea what and who they are voting for...not many people check the facts anymore I mean all the news/websites are bias...the only way to see the truth is through public records...And also there is proof to what i said about its Walkers fault about the election like i said...every meeting they have is written down word for word...Public Records...Plus Barrett's 17.9m vs Scott's 45.6m spent in campaign? you tell me who had more to gain having the election 1month after the dems. primary...
oh and by the way leftie response what about when Bush was in office who did he blame his mess on? You wanna say dems blame there messes on who ever came before them...I do believe I remember Scott Walker blaming the debt on the Gov. before him...So why did the first thing he did in office give himself a 3% raise...Im seriously when I say this Call Madison's city hall and they will direct you to the phone number to the public records building...I live In WI and unless you do you put up or shut up...because honestly unless you live here and deal with Walker's crap for the past 18 months...THEN YOU HAVE NO IDEA!
Ed Schultz and the rest of the MSNBC nightly commentators led the network charge to dump Gov. Walker. There is no doubt that they were as biased and unfair in their broadcasts as we have seen on television. There was absolutely no objectivity in the telecasts from the constant stream of pro Democratic political hacks and reporters, allowing falsehoods to be promulgated by the likes of Rev Jackson and local legislators, to the lack of presenting any opposition speakers or analysis. Schultz and the rest of MSNBC are total surrogates for the Democrats and their actions deserve for all of them to be Recalled. In addition to Barrett, the hard core public employee unions, and the Democrats losing, MSNBC deserves to also be classified a loser in the election
So, Ed, Scott Walker is going to be INDICTED in the next few days? For what? Making you and the rest of the deluded Left look more like an a$$es than you already do?????
