Today I have to leave early for a meeting so I have only this open thread, the poll results and the lead article for you. I hope to catch up on comments before I go, if I have time. The struggle goes on.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today it took me 3:58 (4:42 average). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Crooks and Liars: A new NY Times/CBS poll was just released and the results show Americans strongly support public unions 2-1 over the Koch Brothers-paid stooge, Gov. Scott Walker.
No surprise here. Another recent poll shows that if Wisconsin citizens could vote over again, Walker would get clobbered.
From TPM:
A reporter at The Dallas Morning News says he’s been blocked from following Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s Twitter account — and he’s not the only one.
On Sunday, Tom Benning reported that when he recently tried to follow @GovernorPerry, which is described as the "Personal Twitter feed of Texas’ 47th Governor" and has over 30,000 followers, he received the following message: "Could not follow user: You have been blocked from following this account at the request of the user."
Go figure! There mist be something sleazy about a politician who evades publicity.
Cartoon:
Have a great day!

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Not only regarding Walker/Wisconsin, but I think most of the 2010 elections are bringing out some serious Voters’ Remorse.
I would hope so. How Republicans campaigned has zero to do with anything they are doing.
4:10 Not quite good enough. Now I’m 19 out of 60 (317).
And I nailed today’s.
