Scott Walker misuses Moxy!

Yes, there are times when Moxy can be misused and I must tell you, no one is misusing Moxy more than Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. The Governor is in a full out war with WI Unions. Teachers are number one on the "got to go" list. For weeks, Union members have swarmed the state capitol, and public opinion is largely on their side. Nothing seems to be going as the Right and Governor Walker thought they would. To the contrary, fourteen Democratic Senators has fled the state in an effort to deny the Republican lawmakers the quorum they need to pass the deep cuts to union workers the Governor is demanding. The timeline for the standoff in Wisconsin is an amazing show of Moxy on behalf of the public employees and a really blatant display of Moxy misuse by Governor Walker and his benefactors.

Walker, a "fiscal Conservative," who says the union's right to collective bargaining is terrible for his state, gave tax breaks to companies relocating to Wisconsin. In the deal struck, businesses would not have to pay taxes for two years. While this may sound like a great deal for the state, it actually created the "budget crisis" Walker is using as a reason to take away the collective bargaining rights of the unions.

Donald J. Trump, Terrorist

Donald J. Trump is the GOP front-runner for the Presidential nomination and he is a terrorist. I wish I was being hyperbolic, but I am not. Anyone who has been following the circus that is the GOP nominating process has to understand things have gotten really real if this guy is at the head of the pack. First of all, let's define the term "terrorist": "A person, group, or organization that uses violent action, or the threat of violent action, to further political goals." - Wiktionary.org This is Trump's entire political platform. He use fear of violent action from blacks, Muslims, China...anyone who is not white to galvanize the less than intellectual Americans who make up his base. For Trump, there is now limit to race baiting, xenophobia, slander, of just plain lying if it is going to advance his political career. When Trump first announced he was running for President, I like many others thought this was a stunt to hype ratings for his reality t.v.
