9. True
It is def a msm blackout. Teabaggers would be covered.

But the quake is a huge story. Biggest quake in Japans history.

5th biggest quake in the world . In a high density place. And of course the double triple whammy of the tsunami and the nuke reactors!

13. Totally agree!
Because it is a corporately controlled media. Thank God for the internet! Or we would all be zombies!

20. From AP

<snip>
Dozens of farmers who paraded through the streets on tractors were among those supporting union workers Saturday. They drew cheers as they pumped their fists in the air and displayed signs such as "Planting the seeds for a big season of recalls."

Tod Pulvermacher of Bear Valley towed a manure spreader carrying a sign that read, "Walker's bill belongs here."

"Farmers are working-class Americans," the 33-year-old said as the crowd around him started to cheer. "We work for a living as hard as anybody, and this is about all of us."

:rofl: :rofl:

12. Those Dems are so sincere, so intelligent and honest.
Can we get all of them elected to the U.S. Senate? This is what a Democrat looks like! :applause:

Questions asked about Obama coming to Wisc. Last statement in response from one of the Democrats, before they left 'We love to have the President here'.

The people are now singing 'God Bless America'! Walker has started a Labor Movement!!

Loud cheering now from the crowd. Very moving. I think is going to grow bigger and spread across the country.
