Ed's going to Wisconsin to cover the protests this Thursday, so good for him for continuing to give the event some coverage. Ed went through the endless media coverage over at Fox attacking unions and the concerted effort by the GOP to bust unions and played a clip of Karl Rove admitting that what we're seeing going on now in States with Republican governors is basically their game plan to bust every union in the country to win the 2012 presidential election by destroying one of the last core constituencies of the Democratic Party.
Radio host Joe Madison joined Ed and talked about President Obama's tepid response to the protests there so far and the need for him to wake the hell up and support these workers just as he spoke out for the protesters in Cairo.
As Ed pointed out, the Democratic Party has been mostly silent on what's going on in Wisconsin. They'd better decide if they want to be on the right side of the working class in the United States or not. If they don't, they need to find themselves on the other end of an actual grass roots movement instead of a corporate funded one like the teabaggers and more of what we're seeing in Wisconsin right now with workers finally saying that enough is enough.
