Drama at Wisconsin state house

  The state of Wisconsin had a big event yesterday. Hundreds of people gathered to form a sort of victory tunnel for union members to carry boxes and boxes of phony signatures on recall petitions.
  There's been monkey business in Wisconsin. Red State has a report on all the suspicious activities unions have perpetrated on the public to get these recall petitions in on time. Here's a bit. The entire article is worth reading:
Perhaps the most egregious example was discovered when one man admitted signing a recall petition 80 times because he thought President George W. Bush cheated in the 2000 election. He seemed to have no problem rationalizing his abuse of the process and the petition carriers were happy to let him do it.  It wasn’t just one bad apple that signed multiple times.  Liberal advocacy group One Wisconsin Now actively encouraged people to sign recall petitions more than once.  Presumably, many other opponents of Governor Walker followed One Wisconsin Now’s advice in signing multiple times.  This tactic could affect thousands of signatures. 
There have also been many reports of people signing on behalf of others.  One woman was quoted as saying “I signed for my parents” who were outside of the country.  Another person said they saw Vicki McKenna’s name on a recall petition.  Vicki McKenna is a conservative talk radio host and when contacted about this incident she, of course confirmed that she did not sign.  Additionally, conservative talk radio show host Mark Belling reported a Milwaukee Public School teacher admitted to her friend that she had signed 10-12 other people’s names.
  Here's the dramatic video of Bugs Bunny's 1000 signatures arriving, in addition to about a million others by Daffy Duck and Brunhilda. 
  
  Tens of millions of dollars poured into the state of Wisconsin from outside to get this going. Lies have been told. People have been bused in from all over. Money from DC has been dumped into the state.
  This is the standard MO. Unions aren't trying to hide it anymore. When the Occupiers held a protest in DC, professionally acquired tents were set up. Buses arrived from all around the country.
  Monday in Michigan the same thing happened. Hundreds of people arrived from various places on buses to protest Gov. Snyder's consideration of an emergency fiscal manager for the city of Detroit which is 12 billion dollars in debt, which is racist.
  Or something. 
  Those who attend claim attendance is voluntary, a sort of springing up of action and that may be true for, oh, 10 of the people who attend.
"The power and the commitment of people is pretty surprising," said Myke Gonzalez, 24, of Bay City, who drove in with about a dozen others from the Occupy the Tri group, based in the Saginaw-Midland-Bay City area.
  As with all these "spontaneous" protests, here is evidence. People are being paid, in how many numbers it's unclear, to attend these protests.
  Bus after bus after bus, lined up from around the country.
  Who paid for that, we wonder?
  When you see what's at stake in Wisconsin--union dues being voluntary rather than forced--you can see why all this money is being poured into the state.
  Spend while you got it, I guess.
