But yet they can't work without them. So again, how does that support the fact that Labor Day is a National Holiday, supported by taxpayer dollars, regardless of political affiliation and how can a single political party prevent participation in a national holiday. Why couldn't all blacks just say we don't want any white people to participate in MLK day because they are not black? White people would have to work, all black people get the day off....

What a load of Bull Shit, on both accounts.

If there were a party advocating segregation, I would expect MLK day event organizers to disinvite them.

Wisconsin Republican politicians still get Labor Day off, if they like; don't worry. They just aren't invited to the photo-op mentioned in the article.

[quote=Happy Monkey;753630]If there were a party advocating segregation, I would expect MLK day event organizers to disinvite them.[quote]According to your formula of preventing a single political party from participation in the parade I would say yes, you have made that perfectly clear that it is ok.

Sorry, that dog will not hunt (Bill Clit,on)... It is a public event that cannot occur with out tax payer support, police, fireman, EMT's, Traffic, City workers, all paid for on the non-political-non-denominational taxpayer dime....

Maybe all the Republickins should just show up with billie clubs and beat the shit out of the parade participants just for old times, would that make them happy they excluded someone based on political affiliation? I don't think so...

The whole thing just shows how fucked up Demoncrats in WI and the Unions think. I am glad this has made the headlines.... Really.
