Take to the streets and mount massive protest to demonstrate disapproval and frustration

Camp out for days and weeks on end demonstrating to their government officials they will not forget unfair Corporatist policy being enacted

Mobilize and invigorate an entire state/country drawing world wide support

Mount successful recall efforts in the face of well moneyed Corporate interest

I wish that too, then Walker would be our president, instead of 0bama.

While Nation Sputters on Jobs, Wisconsin Economy Begins to Hum[Madison, Wisc…]

Earlier this month, analysts were dismayed by the nation’s anemic job creation numbers. On Thursday, state officials were pleased as they released data that showed more than half of the net new jobs added in the US in June came from Wisconsin.

“We have made difficult decisions in our state, but they are beginning to payoff,” said Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker (R). “The national job figures remind us that we can not rest after one month of good news; while there will be ups and downs along the way, we must help lead the nation to recovery.”

http://biggovernment.com/bhealy/2011/07/21/breaking-news-wisconsin-accounts-for-more-than-half-of-nations-net-new-jobs-in-june/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+BigGovernment+%28Big+Government%29&utm_content=Twitter

As AoSHQ notes:

Quote
The claim will be made that Texas' job creation record is just some kind of fluke. Or that it's just the oil and gas industries. (Perry was on Cavuto a while back refuting just that; he said job growth was spread out among all industries.)

Perry, of course, would like to claim that Texas has fared well during this Great Recession due to the basic conservative economic policies he's pushed.

In this context, Wisconsin's sudden "hum" of economic activity is confirmatory for Perry's position. If something is magic or just plain luck, it can't be replicated, and there's not really any sense trying.

On the other hand, if an economic strategy, like a scientific experiment, results in reproducible results, replicated in various other "laboratories" when attempted, that tends to prove that it wasn't dumb luck or special circumstances at all, but instead a general principle of wide applicability.

Camp out for days and weeks on end demonstrating to their government officials they will not forget unfair Corporatist policy being enacted    (why camp out for just days and weeks DUmmie? Why not months? After all, lefties do like their stuff for free. Most of the DUmmies probably don't work anyways, so no big loss there.)
Mobilize and invigorate an entire state/country drawing world wide support    (yeah,.......something like that. ::))

Me too!  A Conservative Chief Executive, the GOP in control of both chambers of the legislature, and a brand new Conservative Supreme Court justice.  Sounds frickin' AWESOME!!!

You mean like paying off its loan, paying back the money raided from a medical fund by a corrupt democrat, balancing the budget with out raising taxes, rolling back decades of union rule and erasing a structural deficit of billions of dollars?

In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Milwaukee, democrats are asking for the new Wisconsin redistricting maps to be declared unconstitutional because, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

Quote
"Under the legislation, Democrats have little chance of attaining and retaining a majority in either the Senate or the Assembly, or in the congressional delegation, giving them little ability to overcome minority status at any point over the next decade," the lawsuit argues.


That's right, the new districts are unconstitutional because they make it too hard for democrats to win elections.

Just waiting for Gov. Walker's signature.  Good times.
