Haven't we all....it's one of the most consistent experiences on political forums...the rudeness of the right. The closer to the truth you get the more unhinged and verbally abusive they are.

Well, to be fair...I dish it pretty generously myself, once it's clear that there's no real discussion to be had... :D

Oh it's gatorman. I see you're back under a new name.

Would you care to show me in the links where it lists the total amount of money spent by the unions on the recall? Comparing Walker's spending to Barrett's does not begin to tell the whole story. The article is designed to elicit the kind of response we got from you and DQ (who I have a lot of respect for I'm not speaking about him negatively).

Amazing but not surprising...lazy to the enth degree.

Some of the biggest contributions and expenditures in support of Barrett:

• $200,000 to the America Votes Action Fund, a Democratic super-PAC, from Fred Eychaner, a reclusive media mogul and Obama bundler from Chicago*

• $1 million to the We Are Wisconsin Political Fund, an independent expenditure group run by state AFL-CIO president Phil Neuenfeldt, from the National Education Association's super-PAC

• $500,000 to We Are Wisconsin from the Service Employees International Union; $500,000 from the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees; and $350,000 from the American Federation of Teachers

• $1.3 million to Greater Wisconsin, an independent expenditure shop, from We Are Wisconsin; $900,000 from the Democratic Governors Association; $500,000 from the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees

• $2 million on ads spent by the Greater Wisconsin Committee, GW's 501(c)(4) branch

Correction: This post originally stated that Fred Eychaner donated directly to Tom Barrett, who was limited by law to maximum individual donations of $10,000.

Yes I do and my answer to that is that they've been here and know the posters...I'm new and don't. I don't start out rude but if I'm constantly subjected to rudeness I can reply in kind. I don't think most liberals start out rude, we're basically people that believe in discussion, even heated discussion and the human ability to participate without being abusive. It may be a cultural difference I don't know.
 
If the dems had one, we wouldn't have heard about spending. The way I see it is big dem support came in from the outside, when repubs did a better job on the ground the crybabies arrived.
