And those kids were really good.

Walker has been airing thousands of campaign ads in Northeast Wisconsin, and the Democrats have not yet begun the second phase of the Walker recall effort here.

(114 posts)The bluegrass community called 2011 "The year of Bill Monroe". Woody would be 100 years old this year, and his words resonate this year as Labor fights its most challenging battles.
Solidarity in the Year of Woody Guthrie!
Kudos to the Marching Band!
