3. Florida's March on Tallahassee is March 8th

Not just in support of Wisconsin, but because Rick Scott is doing much of the same thing to this state's public employees, including teachers.

BTW, Florida is also a so called "Right to Work" (sic) state.

4. EXCELLENT!

Question: how in hell did this criminal ever get elected?

5. I wonder if the Repugs have gone back to the table...

or to their think tanks to come up with better ideas to get what they want.

Problem is...REPUGS, HEAR THIS...we're on to them now, we're po'd and we're not going to take it anymore. Not just one state, but the entire U.S. is po'd.

I wonder how many rich people are looking for other countries to move to? I think they are also getting the message. Maybe HGTV will feature some of them in House Hunters.

12. no problem

i spent 20 years as a commodity trader. one thing I have is a thick skin. But one thing the repukes have to remember. I know how they think. I was one of them once. I also know how to fight to win. and thats the one thing the dems need to learn. How to fight to win. no surrender no quarter. the repukes know its war and have been acting like it. Its time for dems to wake up to that fact and fight back. hard and often.

BOISE -- It's President's Day, and that means several closures today, including, state and federal offices, public schools, libraries, post offices, and some banks. But some groups are using the holiday to get their message out.

Thousands of teachers, parents, and students will be spending their day off protesting Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Luna's plan to overhaul the state's education system.

More than 1,000 people rallied in front of the Idaho Capitol.

Protesters gathered at Capitol Park in downtown Boise and chanted "Kill the Bills!" while waving signs that read "Save Our Teachers."
