SEEMS HIS PEOPLE ARE TAKING HIS ADVICE……
On Sunday The Blaze posted a list of SEIU organized protests scheduled in state capitals around the country. Boston was one such location and yesterday union members and friends gathered to rally their support for the protests in Wisconsin. The Dorchester Reporter was there to cover the event:
With a captive audience of core Democratic voters at their feet, U.S. Reps. Edward Markey, Michael Capuano and Stephen Lynch took turns rallying a pro-labor crowd, defending the collective bargaining rights of teachers, nurses, postal workers and other unionized workers.
It should shock no one that Democrats in Massachusetts were leading a rally for union members, but the language from one elected official slid into questionable territory as Congressman Capuano told the cheering crowd:
“I’m proud to be here with people who understand that it’s more than just sending an email to get you going. Every once and awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary.”
The local paper added this chilling observation:
The crowd cheered and hooted for each Congressman as they spoke – the tougher the talk, the louder the reception.
A quick check of Congressman Capuano’s YouTube channel reveals that these comments have not yet been posted. It was less than two months ago that Mr. Capuano was on a TV report praying for AZ Rep. Gabrielle Giffords after she was shot by a crazy man, alleged at the time to be sparked to action by the heated rhetoric of our current political discourse.

As a citizen of Wisconsin, may I say to all these demonstrations of support across the nation, as well as the many out of state protesters that have been “imported” to our capital for this continuing protest – Mind Your Own Business.
This is between the taxpayers of Wisconsin and our employees. We don’t need out of state hooligans coming in to make an already tense situation worse. Nor do we need rabble rousers suggesting that violence should be employed in this matter. This is not Egypt. This is Wisconsin. I should hope that we are better than that.
If you are one of the out of state hooligans who have been running around our beautiful capital building, assaulting our legislative aides and generally interrupting the business of our government-Go Home!
If you truly think that the actions of Wisconsin are a threat to public union employees nationwide, then perhaps you ought to take a good hard look at why these measures are necessary to balance our budget. Perhaps you ought to take a good hard look at what your state’s unions have been doing with their money and their power.
Perhaps you and your fellow union members should remember that unions are not an ideology, they are simply a means to an end. I would hope that those who are members of unions would remember that they are citizens first. As citizens, they should recognize the self evident freedom of an employer to determine the terms of employment, just as they, as individuals have the self-evident freedom to seek employment that will pay them what they want for their time and talents.
Bullying employers to pay what they cannot afford doesn’t work in the business world and it doesn’t work in the world of government either. There is no more tax money to be collected for your demands. Bankrupting the state serves no one, and these demonstrations are serving only to deepen the resentment of those employed by the private sector against public sector unions.
Nobody is winning here.
