I work for Tenet as an RN. on EXHAUSTING 13 hour shifts, STRAIGHT PAY!! We have NO Pension!!! We do not get our Breaks!! I love the patients, and treat them like my own family, for 26 years now! I have a simple 401 K, NOT a pension. VOTE JERRY BROWN, A Public Servant. MEG SUCKS. SHE DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE> WHAT PENSION? Most nurses don't have one!!!

NURSES = PATIENTS ADVOCATE

MEG WHITMAN = DEVIL'S ADVOCATE!

John...yes you can. She is a public figure and this was an organised demonstration with full permit and permission. This was advertised and in no way innappropriate. It's freaking original is what it is.

@decidedvoter08 It is actually stupid. These Californian's don't realize what unionization has done to California's government, economy, and educational system. California public workers and union workers are greedy, and refuse to participate in the free market and get paid a fair wage. They scoff at the notion that they should have a 401k like average Americans; instead demand a pension. They also in turn team up with illegals who drive wages down. Modern liberalism is stupid and destructive.

@JohnRhysMusician You are shilling for your party with misinformation and lies. Thanks for the demonstration on your own stupidity. Conservatives are thugs, criminals and liars.

[JohnRhysMusician]

@decidedvoter08 It isn't misinformation. Conservatism is the antithesis of ideology. It's policy process is a system of trial and error with a general respect for tradition. If you look at the states with the highest levels of unionization- Michigan and New York-concentrated around Detroit and Upstate New York respectively those areas don't look so hot do they?

[JohnRhysMusician]

This is pathetic. You don't go protesting in someones hometown in front of their house.

@JohnRhysMusician --- That's what you call democracy.... ;-) Clearly Meg Whitman has lost her sense of morality! Such a shame!
