This picture was taken today in Madison. This is not over.

...because if the following links are correct, then he may not even be legally elegable to represent the seat he holds!

It seems that state Senator Randy Hopper, who represents the 18th district of Wisconsin no longer lives in that district, nullifying the residency requirement to hold that seat.

Why does he not live in the 18th district anymore? Well, if the following links are correct, it's because his wife has kicked him out of the house for running around with a 25 year old, and he moved out of the district. Making matters worse, his wife seems to have vowed to sign the petition to have him recalled.

Big deal. Tea Party gatherings are even bigger.

The Tea Party was corporate backed. Half their protests wouldn't have even happened if it wasn't for the Koch brothers busing them in. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they paid the 700 pro-Walker protesters they managed to bus to Madison last week.

Here is the real difference. These pro-union protests have been sustained. They continue day after day. In Wisconsin, protesters stood in below freezing temperatures with snow falling, and slept on the floor of the capitol. That's the kind of determination you can't buy. And it's not stopping. Say what you want about the Tea Bagger protests (some of which were only as big as a half dozen people), they didn't have the gumption to effectively occupy capitol buildings in Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan. They didn't have the gumption to surround the captiol buildings in Ohio and New Jersey. Democrats didn't fear for their lives and needed state troopers to protect them while they fled the state to collect bribes.

I have been an activist my entire adult life. And I have never seen the engergy on the ground like I am right now. Not even the anti war rallies when 11 million people world wide protested going to war in Iraq is as determined as these protests. I don't say this lightly, but what the GOP is facing here is a revolt that is close to becoming an open revolution. If they don't back down, then losing elections by landslides is the best thing they can hope for.

And like I said, this isn't stopping. There are several things in the works right now for the upcoming week to continue to put pressure on the GOP. I post more about this later.

So you claim none of these organizations were providing any sort of financial support either directly or in-kind?

LOL

I not sure how you are trying to BS here, but that picture is from the Obama Inauguration and not from any Tea Party rally.

Which rally was that?  Couldn't have been the same one.  Makes me wonder if any of these are really of a Tea Party rally.  Anyway, the comparison is bogus because the Tea Party rally was national in scope, while most of the Wisconsin protesters were from that state.  Note: I said most, not all.

Still no answer.  You posted the pix.  Don't you know where they're from or what the one in question really shows?  I'm even assuming the others are for real.  But if you're too lazy to check your own posts or back them up, I guess we'll have to assume the worst.

I haven't seen that many people in one place - except downtown rush hour twice a day. But that doesn't count because they are working.
