See, only the right (especially Sarah Palin) can engage in HATE FILLED RHETORIC. So this isn't news, because it doesn't exist.

The Wisconsin fight is still going on despite the MSM no longer paying attention.
Ohio is still going through their similar fight.
Now a town in California has their own anti-union controversy.

Union violence continues, media continues to look the other way.

The election of a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat became a battleground for union supporters.

More interesting was this quote from the article:
That right there sums up everything wrong with our judicial system, and the writer of the article doesn't see the problem with it.

The law's opponents hope a Kloppenburg victory will tilt the Supreme Court to the left and set the stage for the court to strike down the law.

I read this morning that the Democrat judge declared victory and won by 204 votes, before they did a recount. I thought that was sort of cheeky.

Right now I am reading that there was a computer error and the republican won by 7k votes.

I am expecting lawsuits to try to keep votes from that entire city to not be counted. Well, predicting. I'd bet a dollar, anyway.

WI Supreme Court rules the lower court's blocking of the "anti-union" Bill was so wrong that they have proven themselves to be idiots.

http://wicourts.gov/sc....o=66078
Commentary:
Generally, when a higher court calls bullshit on a lower one, it's called a remand, a declaration that the lower court got it wrong, and to try again.
...the court ruled here ab initio, which (context clues, it's been forever since I did anything law-oriented) means it's expunged from memory altogether as being improperly entertained from the start, which means there is no remand to the lower court to try again. The higher court has said "Not only did you get this wrong, you got it so wrong we don't trust you with another bite at the apple, so we're directing your decision from here. It's over. Done. Finished. Kaput."
"Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid."
After the ab initio, we have this gem...

This court has granted the petition for an original action because one of the courts that we are charged with supervising has usurped the legislative power which the Wisconsin Constitution grants exclusively to the legislature.
and
The court noted that “f a court can intervene and prohibit the publication of an act, the court determines what shall be law and not the legislature. If the court does that, it does not in terms legislate but it invades the constitutional power of the legislature to declare what shall become law. This [a court] may not do.”
and actually naming names...
In hastily reaching judgment, Justice Patience D. Roggensack, Justice Annette K. Ziegler, and Justice Michael J. Gableman author an order, joined by Justice David T. Prosser, lacking a reasoned, transparent analysis and incorporating numerous errors of law and fact. This kind of order seems to open the court unnecessarily to the charge that the majority has reached a pre-determined conclusion not based on the facts and the law, which undermines the majority's ultimate decision.

Republican Recalls in Wisconsin
Remember these? The Dems and the unions really pushed for this during the Wisconsin fiasco. Millions upon millions were spent by both sides. The Dems and unions expected a clean sweep because "everyone is on their side", but only won 2 of 6. The two they won were areas where the Republican had barely won the first time.
Very demoralizing. Too bad they couldn't bus in voters like they bussed in protestors, huh?
This issue kind of died down a lot, even here in Ohio where State Bill 5 is a hot topic, but I think seeing these recall results is going to be a green light for politicians to take a similar stance.
Next up, the recall elections of two Democrats.

I have been watching that, and I silently predicted Dems would not win the recalls, overall. I still think the majority is against the public union employees soaking up three times the wages and benefits of private citizens doing the same job.
I was a little concerned about all the out-of-state "support" flooding in. The public money, and the secret extra votes. I guess it wasn't enough. Basically the democrats and unions spent twice as much money as the republicans, and the republicans still won.
