This one has been simmering in the slow cooker for a little while now, but isn't quite done yet...

How Wisconsin has changed my life in 2011.
I love my state. I always have. I have been proud to come form a place with such a rich history of Socialist movements, union and labor pride, and to be able to call a politician like Russ Feingold my representative. The mid-term elections broke my spirit and my heart. We lost a progressive voice, gained a worthless suit in his place and an evil monster at the helm of our state. I was devastated and wanted to just stop caring at all about politics. I gave up.
And then it happened.

The GOP tried to push through legislation illegally, our Democratic State Senators, after trying to reason with the unreasonable, fought for us and stood by us by heading to Illinois, leaving the Senate one member shy of the 20 senators required to vote on budget-related bills.
Allow me to DUmb it down for you, Nik. Like every other failed socialist movement ever to deface the Earth, they crumble when they run out of others people's money to spend. Your beloved public unions screwed the taxpayers of this state for decades. So obnoxious was this rape, so toxic these collective bargaining "agreements", that these policies eventually drove us billions into debt. The taxpayers finally stood up and will do so again if necessary. To your socialist collectives I say Good 'effin riddance!
The State Senators you hail as heros are rather reflective of your party. Don't like the score? Take the ball and go home whining. The only thing that was illegal was those twats not showing up. And yes, that was illegal.
If you read the whole screed, Nik manages to exclude the details of what "evil" has been dealt her way by these needed reforms. No examples of how her life has been turned upside down. Most likely because there is none, or she he has to pay a small portion of her lavish health ins. and pension. Crumbs compared to what the rest of us living in the real world pay. Most likely she even saw her property taxes go down.
No more Fiengold? Awwwww. You must be devestated! How do you manage to continue to function?(Wait, don't answer that.)
Of course, over in DUmmieland there need be no valid reason to get the protest crowd banging their drums. As expected, the mooching class is on it like flies on dookie.
