#1 So AFL-CIO and the university of Minesotta didn't know. Noiw they do. If they don't act people will know about them.

#2 That was kind of a long reach to tag it to the AFL-CIO. They'd like to see Obama win, democrat is their default mode, but I'm not sure I buy the terrorism link. It's curious to me how they justify backing Obama this time, he isn't saying much that would further their cause, in fact he'll probably get a good deal of them laid off with his economic policy.

#3 Some experts consider anarchist groups to be based on communist ideals and fronts for communist activities.

Who would have suspected this??? Maybe it was the bandana over the face and molotov coctail.

#4 If they wanted real thugs for the protest they'd have used Teamsters. Just ask Romney (when he went against Sen. Kennedy in '94).

#5 The whole idea is to give teh impression that everybody hates Republicans. Just look at the diversity (sic) of groups that protested against teh evil McCain/Palin ticket. Funny part is the more coveraget eh loons get the crazier they get. I would like to see a class-action by property owners who werehit during the peacful demonstrations and have the Twin Cities sue all the groups for the cost of policing them.

#6 Prosecute them in front of a jury, and if found guilty, have them shot for fomenting dissent and rebellion.

#7 They organized the anarchists? I thought the whole point of anarchy was to reject organization.

#8 The UAW was the incubator for the SDS, so the pattern continues.

Perhaps. But it isn't for the AFSCME.

Hey, someone's gotta be the vanguard of the proletariat, if they were smart enough to do it for themselves, they wouldn't be proletariat, would they? Nor would they accept us as the vanguard. Ergo...
