Rally in Madison, Wisconsin to support Governor Walker’s stand against the greedy and corrupt unions…tomorrow at noon
http://iowntheworld.com/blog/?p=61667
If you are anywhere near Madison, Wisconsin tomorrow, turn out to support Governor Walker’s push back against the greedy and corrupt public employees’ unions.
If you are going to be there, please contact us at HillBuzz@gmail.com and we can setup a way for you to feed Ground Reports through HB so people coast to coast can get first hand reporting on what’s going on.
We are trying to pull off a little road trip of our own…and will let you know if we can be there ourselves too.
Anyone in Tennessee following the teachers’ unions there? Ground Reports needed.
It looks like Tennessee could be facing the same Democrat thuggery that’s assailing Wisconsin this week, because the Tennessee legislature’s Education Committee has voted to move forward with efforts to wrestle budgetary control away from greedy teachers’ unions and return financial order to the state…and power to parents and duly elected officials chosen by the people to represent the state’s best interests…NOT whatever enriches the teachers’ unions.
We could very well be looking at a national revolution against union corruption, if what’s happening in Wisconsin and Tennessee becomes a spark for a coast to coast movement to remove the unions’ from control of state budgeting processes.
There was a time in the early 20th Century when unions were indeed needed because people had no one to protect them from the corrupt self-interests of bullies. But, by the end of the 20th Century, the unions became the corrupt self-interested bullies that Americans need protections from.
It’s time for this country to overthrow our union oppressors, particularly in “blue states”, where unions have destroyed cities like Detroit, Newark, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and continue to do their damndest to drag down places like Chicago as well.
This has to stop.
And the teachers’ unions sure look like a great place to start when it comes to pushing back against the Democrat thuggery that has driven so many states into insolvency, all because of the massive perks and ridiculous payouts the unions continue to shake out of state governments.
If you are not personally getting any of these giant union payouts, then you should not be voting Democrat because Democrats sure are proving every day the only thing they care about is protecting unions, because those unions have always been so good about filling Democrats’ campaign contribution coffers to keep them both symbiotically in power.
Gold Team Action Item: Your thoughts on how to make the Democrats’ bad behavior in Washington in league with the teachers’ unions hurt the Left with independent voters coast to coast
What’s happening in Wisconsin involving the teachers’ unions temper tantrum over state budget cuts — and the Democrats who fled the state against a court order mandating them to come to the capitol to do their elected duty to vote on a budget repair bill — has national ramifications, because independent voters are waking up to the fact that Democrats rely heavily on unions to retain power and unions depend on Democrats in office to protect their gravy train of perks and treasury looting.
What Democrats and unions are doing in Wisconsin is hurting them badly in the state…because their tantrums and refusal to rein in the massive abundance of perks they receive, at a time when private sector workers are suffering with unprecedented privations, makes them seem incredibly out of touch and tone deaf.
The Cocktail Party GOP establishment has very stupidly never taken advantage of Democrat foolishness, or these moments in American politics when the unions so nakedly expose themselves as the Democrat party’s thugs, with Democrats revealing their own parasitic dependence on union leeches.
What creative ways can we think of to drive this point home in YOUR STATE and get your friends, family, and neighbors to pay attention to what’s happening in Wisconsin?
What can we do to convince the independent voters Democrats need to win in 2012 to keep the White House and other prominent offices that re-electing Democrats means giving these greedy unions the ability to continue raiding state treasuries in business-as-usual mode.
We all know the Cocktail Party GOP establishment won’t drive this point home effectively, because the consultants that have advised the Republican Party for decades are too wimpy and meek to ever aggressively go after Democrats for things like this. There MUST be someone consistently telling conservatives to pull their punches and not call Democrats and unions out for their greed and thuggery. Whoever that entity is needs to be shouted down and replaced by a strong clarion call to really whallop the Left this time for what’s happening in Wisconsin.
Please chime in with ideas below.
Even more helpful, consider taking the time to research the teachers’ unions and Democrat treasury-raiding in your state. Sit down and do a Ground Report featuring your take on what’s happening in YOUR community and include at least one idea at the end how YOU think this could either be better publicized or addressed where YOU live.
Send your Ground Report to us at HillBuzz@gmail.com and we’ll do our part to get this conversation started in as many states as possible.
We all know the Media will derelict its duty to properly cover the union siege on Wisconsin, that leaves citizen journalists and armchair strategists to pick up the slack.
How about you join in on this effort?
If you don’t know how, or feel hesitant to write because “you are not a reporter”, just give it a shot. Send it to us. We’ll edit it and format it to make it look professional and will help you with whatever you need to get started reporting from your part of the country. YOU have something incredible to contribute but you might not know it yet. YOU have the power and ability to tell the story about the unions’ detrimental impact on YOUR community.
We’ve got a platform here to get your findings and opinion out to a national audience…so PLEASE take a half hour to put onto your computer screen everything YOU feel about teachers’ unions (in particular) and unions in general in your state.
This whole thing is blowing up in Democrats’ faces already…but just imagine how much damage we can do to the Left in independent ranks if we really push hard to do the job the Media won’t and expose this naked and corrupt Wisconsin power tantrum to a national audience.
Wisconsin Ground Report: Media not reporting that Democrats fled the state without doing their jobs and teachers’ unions are harming children with their work stoppage
Dear HilBuzz,
I live 40 miles north of Madison, and our school is closed today so the teachers can join the protest. There is a state wide school rule that states that if school is canceled on Friday any activities Friday evening or during the weekend are also canceled. What that means for the school athletes is no basketball games and no wrestling completions. I know a few parents that are incredibly angry about this. Sports participation is expensive in both time and money. The teachers are lying when they say this is for the children. The teachers are following the union marching orders. The teachers are getting no sympathy from anyone, anymore. They had it for awhile and now it’s gone.
This morning on AM620 I heard an interesting interview with the majority leader, State Senator Fitzgerald. He wanted to clear up a miss conception about our run away Democrats. They left without doing their job. This is not being reported. They did not offer any amendments they did not stick around long enough. They had the opportunity to participate fully in the process, and they did not take it. They took a bus to Rockford instead. You can listen to AM620 here: http://www.620wtmj.com if you click on listen live at the top of the page. Charlie Sykes is on until noon. He is very informative and was in the capitol yesterday. He broadcasts out of Milwaukee.
I think anyone living in any of the districts of these runaways should contact their offices and tell them to get back to work. I support the Governor and have told my representatives as much. There are reports of a TEA Party counter protest being arranged for Saturday at Noon at the capitol. I hope attendance is overwhelming. The unions are bussing in from other states. Let’s show the capitol how much support they have for the Budget Repair Bill from all over the State of Wisconsin.
Thank you for your time.

Support Scott Walker
Governor Scott Walker
We need to show our support for Governor Scott Walker….now. Just like the courageous Governor Jan Brewer in Arizona, Governor Walker is under attack for doing the right thing for his state. I can’t imagine the kind of hate mail and phone calls he’s getting right now. We need to send him encouraging emails, letters, phone calls, Facebook and twitter messages to let him know that we are behind him all the way.
Here are a few ways to contact Governor Walker…

The hypocritical jihadist left
Do they ever go back and listen to what they have said? Why is it always a one way street? They scream and yell about the right being the hate mongers but then they go out and act like a bunch of Islamic extremists.
Actually…..after watching the above Youtube video….don’t all of those crazy left-wing union loons look like…
I see very little difference.
Friday Open Thread: February 18th, 2011
(h/t Moonbattery)
What’s on your minds this Friday?
What are people talking about in your part of the country?
Blue Team Action Item: Research why the Supreme Court is compelled to hold a new hearing on Obama’s eligibility to hold the presidency
Drudge has linked this story from World Net Daily that notes the odd decision by the Supreme Court to hold a new “conference” on Obama’s eligibility to hold the presidency.
Let’s research WHY the court could be compelled to do this.
It MUST have something to do with the fact that Obama has no birth certificate on file in the Hawaiian Hall of Records with the name “Barack Hussein Obama” on it — since his original Hawaiian birth certificate with that name was sealed in the 1970s when he was adopted in Indonesia by Lolo Soetoro, his stepfather. At the time of adoption, a child’s original birth certificate is sealed away and replaced in the Hall of Records by a new birth certificate that bears the adopted parents’ names and the child’s new name, if a new name is given.
This is what happened to Obama, when he was renamed “Soetobakh” by his mother and stepfather at the time of adoption.
In Indonesia, there are no last names. The man who adopted Obama is routinely called “Lolo Soetoro”, but in reality his name in Indonesia is just Soetoro. ”Lolo” is a nickname — but on documents in the West, Soetoro seems to have used the name “Lolo Soetoro” because he needed to complete a first and last name line on documentation.
There are a couple names that could appear on the birth certificate Hawaii has on file for the current US President because of the odd circumstances involved in Indonesian names. Here are a few options:
* Soetobakh Dunham
* Soetobakh Soetoro
* Barry Soetoro
* Soetoro Soetobakh
The reason Obama has spent so much time and money hiding his original birth certificate is because his adoption in the 1970s, and the bizarre, Klingon-sounding name “Soetobakh” are just so strange and difficult to explain to Americans.
I know in comments on this thread another debate will emerge about what happens to a child when he is adopted, and I will continue to maintain that the child’s original birth certificate that was created on the day he was born is removed from the Hall of Records and sealed by court order…with a new birth certificate created and filed in its place that changes the parents’ names to that of the adoptive parents, altering the child’s original name as well if the parents renamed him during the adoption.
I insist this because I have several friends who are adopted, as well as friends who have adopted children. In all of these instances, the children’s adopted names are on the long form birth certificates on file for them in their respective states. Additionally, the adoptive parents’ names are what’s listed on the children’s birth certificates…NOT the birth parents. The birth certificates with the birth parents’ names on them are filed away by court order and sealed from public view. I am not even certain if the adopted children are able to obtain their own original pre-adoption birth certificates without a judge signing off on that.
The man who calls himself “Barack Hussein Obama” was indeed born in Hawaii in August of 1961…but his legal name is either Barry Soetoro, Soetobakh Soetoro, Soetoro Soetobakh, or Soetobakh Dunham.
There are myriad very messy constitutional and legal issues that arise from the fact the current US President has engaged in an orchestrated conspiracy to hide his long form birth certificate and actual legal name. THAT is why so much money and energy has been lavished on the efforts to keep his secret.
I wonder if the efforts underway in ten states (and counting) to require the production of an original long form birth certificate for presidential candidates to appear on the 2012 ballots has anything to do with the Supreme Court’s sudden interest in holding a conference on Obama’s eligibility.
Obama, as president, has turned into another Jimmy Carter in office…but in terms of his adopted name change he actually has something in common with Gerald Ford…who was born “Leslie Lynch King Jr.” in 1913.
His mother remarried, and at the time of that marriage her new husband adopted Leslie Lynch King Jr. and changed his name to “Gerald Ford”, the name Ford used for the rest of his life, including the duration of his accidental presidency.
What would have happened if, as president, Ford decided to use the name “Leslie Lynch King, Jr.” on official documents?
Would they have been legal, since his birth certificate was changed at the time of adoption to read “Gerald Ford”?
This is the exact boat “Obama” is in, since his legal name was changed to Soetobakh-something-or-another the way little Leslie Lynch King’s name was changed to Gerald Ford.
I have yet to see anyone make this connection in any articles related to this subject, so I would love help researching any other instances of someone ignoring a legal name change and conducting official business under a nickname that’s completely different from what’s listed on that person’s birth certificate.
Has there ever been an instance like this?
Gerald Ford’s name was changed at the time of his adoption from a name that bears no resemblance at all to it….but Ford kept his adopted name as an adult and used it in his presidency…unlike Obama who reverted to his birth name but does not seem to have ever completed the necessary paperwork in Hawaii to change his name from Soetobakh-something-or-another BACK to “Barack Hussein Obama”, which was the name this political chameleon decided would take him farthest in life (and he was right!).
There are all sorts of interesting legal questions that arise from this.
Maybe you can help raise them in the thread below as a first step to sleuthing out answers for them.
Is Alaska destined to save this nation? Governor Parnell refuses to enact Obamacare
Alaska is an awesome place, apparently. Returning LeNa JaBrowski to the Senate notwithstanding.
The 45th President of the United States will be an Alaskan. The Alaskan rogue spirit that fires and fuels her will do wonders for Washington.
You betcha.
Governor Palin’s hand-picked successor, Sean Parnell, is refusing to enact Obamacare in Alaska, after a federal judge ruled in Florida that Obamacare is unconstitutional. Sounds exactly like what Governor Palin would do if she was still in office.
The federal government cannot compel citizens to purchase a product. It’s that simple. Efforts Democrats have made to force Americans to purchase a product are unconstitutional. No governor should allow Obamacare to move forward in his or her state.
All 50 governors need to follow Parnell’s lead on this.
It’s just that simple.
Just another reminder about comments not appearing — we apologize, but the site changeover is causing these troubles
Just another reminder for anyone concerned, but one of the drawbacks of the site changeover we’re doing is that it’s messing up the comments on threads. There’s a longer lag than usual for comments to show up, and because our focus is on doing everything that needs to be done to move the site to the new server and get the HB 3.0 up and running, one of the things that just needs to fall through the cracks temporarily is yanking valid comments out of the spam filter.
The new site will be smarter about what’s spam and what’s not, so it’s just one of the many things that will be improved when the changeover is complete. In the meantime, we just have to grin and bear this. Honestly, we appreciate the frustration but there is just nothing that can be done about it for the next two weeks or so between now and the debut of the new site…which, we’re sure, will have hiccups of its own for a while until things start running smoothly in their new groove.
File all this under pardon our dust and know we are working hard to get things transferred as soon as possible.
