Chomsky on the propaganda campaign against public sector workers from democracy now.

Note that in the Wisconsin strikes, the unions negotiated for LESS than what they had.

5. Lee Doren is such a mindless toad ! So brainwashed
I wonder what he does for a living, and who would hire him.

6. Koch Family would hire him.....
Lee Doren graduated from the University of Michigan with a B.A. in Communications, and he received his J.D. from Chicago-Kent College of Law. He is licensed to practice law in Illinois and is currently employed at the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

8. Thank you for your research! Sorry, guess I'm too lazy today
to have done my homework!

Thanks again.... this guy is such a toad, and he looks fat, out-of-shape, a fool in so many ways.

7. that was disgusting
Lee Doren, unbelievable. is he just not aware spewing hate like that and lies, who is the true thug?

as for who is getting screwed and who is doing the screwing?

from Robert Reich recently:


Last year, America's top thirteen hedge-fund managers earned an average of $1 billion each. One of them took home $5 billion. Much of their income is taxed as capital gains - at 15 percent - due to a tax loophole that Republican members of Congress have steadfastly guarded.

If the earnings of those thirteen hedge-fund managers were taxed as ordinary income, the revenues generated would pay the salaries and benefits of 300,000 teachers. Who is more valuable to our society - thirteen hedge-fund managers or 300,000 teachers? Let's make the question even simpler. Who is more valuable: One hedge fund manager or one teacher?

Since you're so obsessed with the term "thug", Lee, let me introduce you to another term:

"Lickspittle"

You'll find it in the dictionary next to your picture.
