[quoting from Politico] Voters in Wisconsin strongly agree with the working families at the state capitol [sic] and oppose Governor Scott Walker’s anti-worker agenda. Moreover, since the protests began, Governor Walker has seen real erosion in his standing, with a majority expressing disapproval of his job performance and disagreement with his agenda. Strong majorities disagree with eliminating collective bargaining for public employees and believe that if workers agree to concessions on pensions and healthcare benefits that the Governor should drop his plan to eliminate collective bargaining.“Working families at the state capital”; “anti-worker.” Any guess who funded this particular survey? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
I'm not sure what the "sic" was doing in there. Very obviously Politico was referencing the protests at the state capitol - i.e. the building where the legislature meets, you know Ed, the place where all of these types photos were taken:
Given the news coverage for the last week it should have been pretty difficult to miss the connection between the protests and the capitol building where the protesters spent so much time.
Difficult, but not impossible it seems.
As for the substance of the Hot Air posting, shading doings in a big labor inspired survey, there is more meat there. It's too bad Hot Air undermined their own message with pointless, and inaccurate, carping.
