Thank you Wisconsin
Thank you for forcing all of us to stop and realize what is going on. Thank you for taking time from your families and your jobs to stand up to your governor. Thank you for giving us something very important to think about and pay attention to every day this week - something inspiring and wonderful. Thank you for standing in the cold and not backing down.

I stand with you Wisconsin. Bless you.

6. The cheeseheads don't let the weather stop them.
They are tough, and used to the snow and cold weather. You can do it too!

Freezing cold & much sacrifice to just make this stand...Tomorrow will be a exercises in non-violence to test any reasonable soul.

But the time has come. Solidarity is the only option & long overdue. I see ass hats who make millions telling America these are rebellious anti-Americans??. I don't buy it.

Now viewers can at least see Americans standing up & feel they too...have a chance to actually make a difference. And this stand must not fail.

I see it sweeping America.
