When about 300 Sheboygan Lutheran High School students and supporters piled into the rotunda of the State Capitol in Madison last Thursday after the boys basketball team clinched a trip to the finals for the Division 5 WIAA state championship, they had some time to spare.

Sharing the rotunda with a small group of pro-union demonstrators singing songs, the Lutheran High group broke into spontaneous cheers "Stand with Walker!" interspersed with cries of "LHS! LHS!" and the Common Doxology.

The resulting furor since the event has surprised school officials and state Sen. Joe Leibham, a Lutheran High alumnus who invited the group to the Capitol for a photo with the team and a celebratory reception.

"Friday morning, we had a couple of nasty phone calls all of a sudden," said Jim Pingel, Lutheran's executive director. "People identified themselves as union leaders, protesters. They were passive-aggressive, menacing."

Of course the press would classify "union leaders, protesters" as "passive-agressive, menacing".

1. Sheboygan Lutheran students, who does your senator serve? He does perform Christian works.

2. The repubs are very on message with the "Stand Wth Walker" thing....

It's reinforced on all the prime time ad slots. Every pro-Walker bumper sticker and yard sign has a "Stand With Walker" message. We need to get a candidate and take the message back.

3. The Walker-Jugend

Lutherans teaching acceptance of a Theocracy now?

Maybe next time they'll all wear armbands with a photo of Walker in the center?

4. From the Fox News article:

Shouts of “LHS” and “Stand with Walker” thundered through the rotunda and was met with wide approval from the LHS supporters. One student entered the circle to mock and taunt the singers with dance moves.

These kids behaved like absolute shitheads. Shame on them, and shame on their parents, who have obviously failed miserably at raising their children.
