At the Capitol today... there were signs taped up everywhere..

"Dick move."

Signs and junk...

... and even some people sleeping (at midday)...

Many signs depicted Jesus. Jesus says, "Tax the rich," and Scott Walker ignores our Lord:

The displays at the mezzanine level had become — like all the walls and pillars — places to tape signs. Here's the bust of Robert M. LaFollette:

I don't know if you can see it. Look closely: that is the replica of the Liberty Bell under all those signs:

This is the back of the Veteran's Memorial, with all sorts of notices taped onto it and junk piled up against it.

Meade and I confronted the protesters who maintained what they called their "information station." That's Meade in the baseball cap during the confrontation:

I'll have video of the Veterans Memorial confrontation on YouTube and this blog very soon. The video includes a protester telling me that Meade and I are the first — "literally the first" — persons to object to their treatment of the memorial.

ADDED: Here's the post with the video up now.
