I can't relate to how anyone can see how the union/public worker side has been conducting itself and not find it disgusting. It's been clear that their strategy has been to employ shrill rhetoric and intimidation. And teachers: If you want to be perceived as professionals, act like professionals. The teachers clogging up the Wisconsin capital facilities and participating in those protests haven't been doing that.
Just amazing to me that ANYBODY who isn't a long time fanatic union sympahtizer would take the union side in this case. But it's apparently been happening if the polling data are to be believed.

Jesus, John, where have you been for the past couple of years, Mars?
Wisconsin in such dire financial straits that the governor cuts a couple hundred million in corporate taxes, and then says that teachers are the problem, and folk like you just wipe off your chin and nod?
When billions of taxpayer dollars were being showered on Wall Street scum rewarding their colossal incompetence, contracts were sacrosanct, and we got stuck paying obscene bonuses to the worst fockups on the planet; now we need to change the rules because it turns out that a bunch of gray-haired schoolteachers are the
real problem?
Pretty obvious why the Koch's getting it handed to them.
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.
