Wait, What?

Ron Johnson is running against Russ Feingold for Senate in the great state of Wisconsin, long may she wave.  In his most recent advertisement, Johnson avers that

I'm not a politician. I'm an accountant and a manufacturer. I know how to balance a budget, and I do know how to create jobs. Now that's something we could really use.

Jobs are, of course, something we could use.  Manufacturing jobs are something we could use.  What have manufacturers and accountants been doing for the past however long it has been?  Moving jobs from here to low wage, no environmental, no labor law, no etc states, that's what.

Which party has supported this more than the other? The Republicans, that's who.  Why just today the Democratic majority tried to run roughshod over the Republicans, well actually they followed procedure and the all the Republicans with a few of the nominal Democrats voted against a bill designed to encourage a reversal of this trend.

Ron Johnson, in short, as an accountant, a manufacturer, and a Republican is more, rather than less, likely to ship jobs oversees or to cut wages in the name of economic efficiency and his party is more likely than not going to continue to give tax breaks to the rest of those pirates as they continued their never ending war on truth, justice and the American way.
