Republicants not welcome in Wausau Labor Day parade

[HelenWheels]

The unions sponsor the parade and they told the Marathon Co. Repub Party they are not welcome in the parade. Sean Duffy asked if he could be in the parade and the union said, "No. You do not support labor so why would you want to be in the Labor Day parade?"

The Repubs should get a Capitalist Parade together and they can march in that.

1. So sad .. to bad

You NEOCONS stab us in the back and then you expect us to play nice ... those days have hit a brick wall!

:grr:

2. We should just shorten the name "Republicants" to "Replicants" to call them out as the non-humans...

... that they truly are these days!

3. Correction.... not "Capitalist Parade"... "Plutocratic Parade"

Capitalism is just free trade. Supporting bankers and defense contractors with billions of taxpayer money is not.

4. The GOP will have to start their own "Cheap Labor Day"

Let's see how overwhelmingly popular it is.

5. while i understand and agree with the concept, i do worry

that his could come back to haunt us in republican areas as the dems are forbidden to march in crazy conservative places such as ozaukee, washington and waukesha counties.

6. Not the Dems call

The parade is sponsored by the Unions not the Dem Party. We have no say who is invited to be in the parade. The Union officials said the Republicants do not support labor so why would they be in a Labor Day parade.

On a kind of related topic, several years ago the Chamber of Commerce put on a Christmas Parade. We peace protesters asked to be in it and were denied as they didn't want any thing political. They did invite the National Guard to march with their guns.
