It really bothers me that the Governor said that he stated that he'd considered using provocateurs to create problems amongst the demonstrators in order to discredit the public service unions and their supporters.

He admitted he actually discussed this.

This would have been the beginning of violence and crowd problems into a peaceful protest. His paid troublemakers could have led to serious violence.

How do you respect a public offficial who considers this kind of behavior?

He should resign now.
Power is nothing till you use it.

Oh get over yourself. I notice you are not demanding Congressman Michael Capuano to resign after this little call to arms:



And don't give me this bullcrap about peaceful protesting. I have been watching union jack@sses all over the country pushing those they disagree with around.  Malkin has numerous examples of how non-peaceful those upset at what Walker is doing here.

Here's a vid of one buffoon threatening one of the most bizarre acts of violence I have ever heard (7:30).



Now feel free to bury your head back in the sand.

Saying that protesters may need to get violent is unacceptable.

But discussing a strategy with your team to put fake protestors in the crowd to cause problems is worse.

Do you not see the difference?

Sad, but expected, you didn't call for the dem to resign. Infiltrating protests and calling for the bloodying of people are different. The latter being far, far worse--especially since we have union punks carrying out violent acts. Have we spotted a Walker-inspired infiltration yet?

And see Nate's post below yours on this. There was a seven page thread on the Tea Party Crashers, in which you posted, and I do not recall you demanding resignations there. Help me find where you objected to those people infiltrating was worse than calls for violence.

A really great interview with Andy Stern, retired leader of the SEIU, on where unions are headed.  Actually very levelheaded, reform minded, and pragmatic.  He's not a firebreather.  Yes, I'd even suggest the righty members of the forum read it.

Mission Accomplished Capuano--you freakin dooshbag of a congressman.



Where is the outrage that existed when the Tea Party protests were taking place? I have officially had it with unions.
