Wisconsin to Washington: GOP declares war against workers
http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/brent-budowsky/34469/wisconsin-to-washington-gop-declares-war-against-workers

What Republicans are doing from Madison, Wis., to Washington, D.C., is waging a war against workers that will destroy a million jobs for Americans.

The GOP is waging a war against teachers, against firefighters, against police, against programs that create jobs, against men and women who hunger for jobs, against pay equity for women, and against the economic recovery that has only begun.

I will guarantee that when the full budget proposals of House Republicans are added to the full budget proposals of Republican governors, leading and objective analysts will conclude that a million American jobs will be lost.

The Republicans are not engaging in deficit reduction, they are fomenting a political civil war based on an ideology that is radical and extreme compared not only to generations of Democrats, but to generations of the most respected Republicans who never proposed anything like what Republicans are proposing today.

From your article: "In many cases this is a war against policies that help women, a war against pay equity for women, a war against new jobs for women and a war against poor women and their daughters and sons."

It is a war against all not in the ruling class...
