Anyone watching Ed. Basically covering we are watching in WI the effect of

Citizens United. A concerted effort to destroy one of the last voices against the corporations blessed by Citizens United. Basically that's what's being said in this segment by John Nichols of The Nation.

6. Yep, one of the pushing forces toward a fascist state to me at least. I wish

Americans would wake up that this affects everyone.

3. This is it... we either stand now and draw that line

on we are lost for a generation or more.

Ed gets it... Nicholls gets it... Rachel gets it.

Every person there gets it.

5. Ed is EXCELLENT tonight!

This is a very important program - they are basically laying out the truth and its not pretty.

We better get ready because we have quite a fight between now and 2012 and the GOP has just thrown the first political grenade.

The Tea Party has been played and they ought to be ASHAMED. This, here in Wisconsin - this is America.

Shine On Wisconsin!

8. I wonder if the Tea Party really gets what's going on, how they have been used as

suckers. Certainly all of the Tea Party are not millionaires and billionaires. Some of them look/act like they're on the edge of poverty and also need lots of health benefits.

14. The problem is, the people that need to know this probably won't hear

about it, about the Koch bros, etc. They'll hear the evening news and nod nonchalantly with the Hannity statement about "unions are evil," etc
