Astroturf in Action!

This weekend the koch brother's front group Americans for Poverty held their rally in Racine over the weekend. As we have pointed out here, The well funded Kochster's have brouht in busloads of out of state agitator's, (and they pay these out of state dead ender's well)!!

They also brought in a group of D-list celebrities to speak for them and "fire" up the crowd. These "celebrities" come in and attempt to tell the people of WI, how great Scott Walker's "reforms" are while they live as far away from WI as they can. This years out of state celebrities were Dana Loesch and Tony Katz( I would link to them, but even Google has never heard of them).

Then they brought in a couple of speakers reportedly from Wisconsin. The great thing about these speakers at the "tea party" rally s that they have spent their whole career engaging in everything the "tea party" has said they were formed to fight. Yet the "tea party" faithful cheered them on Saturday? Are the two Wisconsinites charlatans or is the "tea party" just a branch of the republican party(my vote is a little of both). The first speaker was double dipper Van Wanggaard who likes to collect two state pensions while working to end others. Then the hero of the day was the champion of Medicare Part D, Wall St. bailout, and the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars(off the books) Paul "hey big government spender" Ryan (R - Wall St.) I wonder how many $350 bottle of wine were promised to Ryan to lure him back to WI?

 I also wanted to give special attention to the ultimate out of state agitator and vermin Tim Phillips. Tim Phillips is the koch brothers stooge and you will have to look far and wide to find a human being more disgusting than he is. Here is a great rundown of Phillips.

So lets take a better look at the crowd. Why did they have to have this rally in Racine? easy access for the busloads of Illinois people coming up from Chicago! Then Fox news ran a story showing us the exact differences. While the Barrett campaign and those on the left, have actual grass roots and Wisconsin people power and boots on the ground, armed with a clipboard and pen.

What does the Walker campaign have(besides paid out of state agitators) As Fox News itself reports "Americans for Prosperity Poverty has supplied their workers with "cell phones, dialing software, a bus that has been traveling the state, Ipads, and tablets with campaigning software, and their own media machine. Astroturf in Action.

Do we want a few out of state agitators and billionaires deciding Wisconsin's future or do wewant the people of WI to be able to govern themselves?

We know what the Founding Fathers wanted, what will the people of WI chose?
