Democrats’ behavior says a lot about them

A bad tree cannot produce good fruit.
Democrats show their true colors when they are out of power. They run away when they know that they cannot win. They bully and they threaten violence. Look at the signs the union protesters were holding. “Hitler, tyrant” and “dictator” is what these people call the governor of Wisconsin.
Collective bargaining is essential to unions. Union bosses need forced dues from their underlings in order to stay in power and to give other people's money to the Democratic Party. Remember, democracies never survive. Mob rule always disintegrates into chaos. So beware of the Democratic Party.
When the Democrats were in power, they rammed through laws that the majority of the citizens were vehemently against. Democrats and unions get their way any way possible. Saul Alinsky and Cloward/Piven are their heroes.
