This gets more beautiful the more I learn about it. Not only is there a march to sign Walker’s recall papers on Tuesday in Wauwatosa near Walker’s home, Walker’s own neighbors are volunteering their yards for the purpose. Enough people are coming that buses will be running for about 4 hours! Copied directly from...

The morning after: Democracy Now’s coverage of the march and speeches is about as good as you’ll find. They briefly cover other events first in this, then move on to a video of people getting arrested in their tent in Seattle’s Occupy location, and then cover New York’s march. They report that 75 schools...

I’m pondering whether I’ll start drawing social security before or after this feud over protest-related expenses ends. (23 years from now, give or take). As you recall, Wisconsin’s DOA got the message out that protests at the Capitol were an expensive burden, saying it would cost $7.5 million for Capitol building cleaning – which...

It does my heart good to see these video pieces of Scott Walker being hounded. Add a soundtrack from the Dropkick Murphies – “Take ‘Em Down” – and I’m doing a jig. Their song has that irritating twangy banjo picking I usually hate. But here it seems perfectly fitting against the raising of signs...

Photos and video of about 300 protesters confronting Scott Walker at Devil’s Lake State Park this morning. Images are from Skillet Creek Media. It’s important to protest radical right wing authoritarians like Walker and it’s important to share the images and sounds of protest with others. Photos, videos, and accounts of protest beget yet...

This next statement sounds a little like a mix of me and the Wisconsin Tourism Board: Whether you want to protest with a sign, make a call, knock on a door, or even plan to leave for Chicago, there’s just a whole lotta political stuff to keep you busy in lovely Wisconsin! The most...

But I’m getting some video together. For the moment I’ll just say that I am still the same person I was and I...

I have video. I have audio. I have photos. They all should be compiled into a multimedia schmorgasbord. But it takes so much time to wrestle with this stuff. Just thinking about it… I need to relax and have a beer. So, for the moment, here are a few photos and comments. Part 1...

Some people leave a wake of garbage in their path. Reminds me of Pigpen from Charlie Brown . Andrew Breitbart spoke at Madison, Wisconsin yesterday to approximately 3,500 Tea Party and Pro-Walker people. They were there to do their darndest to match the numbers of Progressives, workers, and students that have rallied since last...

Ed Schultz talking to John Nichols at the top of East Washington Avenue. I was about 20 feet away and could not see Ed. That was OK. The spirit of the crowd and their great signs made up for that. Ed got possession of an email from the “Club for Growth” which urges

Each Democratic Senator of Wisconsin walked out of Madison’s Capitol today so that a quorum could not be reached and a vote will not be made on Governor Scott Walker’s radical “Budget Reform Bill” as was scheduled today. And I thought the most dramatic thing to happen today would be at lest 4,000 students...
