Now the Democrats are facing the same tactics they have used for years. The political left is great for taking a group which benefits from it's largess ( at the expense of tax payers) such as the N.C Education Association among many others and using them as purveyors propaganda for increased spending and increased taxation. Even now they're lining up supposed " victims of spending cuts" to whine to the media. It's good that some of the media are on to these tactics.
