Is Indiana the new front line for the war on the working class?
Jan. 26, 2012 8:27 amBy Skeptical Scott
Indiana is screwed as it crept one step closer to becoming the 23rd state in the nation to pass a right-to-work FOR LESS law. The State House passed legislation that was passed by the Senate earlier in the week to bring right-to-work-for-less to the state – putting an end to closed union shops and pitting workers against workers across Indiana, thus killing off the union movement in that state.

Jan. 24, 2012 9:14 amBy SueNThe President is set to deliver his State of the Union address tonight - What will he talk about?
Jan. 24, 2012 8:09 amBy skepticalscottEarly reports indicate the President will focus on the issues that are absent from most Republicans debates, which are help for the middle class, ways to reduce wealth inequality, and a plan for renewable energy. Despite 22 straight months of private sector job creations, glimmers of hope in an economic recovery, and one fewer war abroad since the President took office three years ago – the state of our union is still weak.

The Republican Party has a serious problem on its hands – and its name is Newt Gingrich.
Jan. 23, 2012 8:27 amBy skepticalscottNewt shocked the establishment on Saturday night crushing Mitt Romney in a landslide victory in the South Carolina Primary. By referring to President Obama as the “Food Stamp President” as often as he could – and characterizing the poor, and in particular minorities, as lazy – Newt proved that race baiting in the South is still a winning strategy…at least when only Republicans are voting.
