quite frankly we've gotten fat and lazy over the past forty years it's kind of the you know the great tunisian historian even how do news consider the founder of modern history his great theory was a kind of cyclical theory of history where you have you know nations who rise or cultures because they're hungry and they reach the top and when they get to the top they start getting fat and lazy and then they start getting the they start declining and the next great nation rises and we really have to see whether the west or the e.u. or whatever you want to call it whether we can get lean and hungry again and do the hard work of rebuilding our societies in ways that are more democratic more representative and more fair and i'm not so sure about that but that's at least i know is the task at hand ok mark in nashville we have a presidential election in the united states this year on the back of what mark said in irvine is the united states just being complacent we got to get a good a good election outcome or it or asked differently is obama going to serve another four years. i actually will

people were lazy and didn't get engaged. what i get on the ground here in wisconsin, this is going to motivate people. this is going to focus people on how important 2012 is. and the big beneficiary of this should be president obama and the obama campaign. and it should be a wakeup call, as we saw in ohio and indiana. right-to-work is a huge issue. there's being labor issues going on in michigan. so these radical governors that came in, this is really, i think, an overreach and a response to an overreach. it's a ground swell response. i think it does play big in these states in 2012. >> let me go back to mike tate. i grew up with the fact there was big labor. i remember working in the senate years ago. a long time ago when people like george meade, head of the afl-cio, would come in. republican senators would rush over to light his cigar. that sounds like a thousand years ago. big labor was truly big labor. bigger than the fed chairman. bigger than the guy from the fed, afl-cio was big they were the fed chairman, politically
