Did you think the incident with the anti-Walker art project at an MPS school was a fluke? Read this article by an MPS teacher, in which describes in detail how he "teaches" his 3rd graders (3rd graders!) about the evils of budget cuts and enlists them in political action. Exit question: do you think he explained the role of bloated pensions, fringe benefits, and the union in the budget crisis?

Keep it classy, unionistas. As the governor tried to call attention to the accomplishments of the special Olympians... the protestors blocked their view... and were more interested in calling attention to themselves.

Remember when the president assured us that if we liked it, we could keep the health insurance we have? Well, it turns out that 30% of cmpanies are already saying they may drop their coverage. David Harsanyi tells us not the forget what's coming.

Just imagine: a GOP senator writes a post asking for 'unemployed WHITE construction workers." You don't need to be Eugene kane to imagine the reaction. Here is the post from Senator Lena Taylor's facebook page:

Interesting. In a speech last night Paul Ryan links the debt crisis to national security. As one observer asked: "I ask you, does this sound like a speech given by a guy focused on winning back a tough house district in Wisconsin?" Uh, no.
