RADIO TIDBITS

Sean Hannity is doing his part to help bust the unions in Wisconsin.  He's had on Gov. Scott Walker on two days in a row and allows him to lie about his "repair bill."

Fats Limbaugh falsely claimed that 75% of the simulus bill (ARRA) went to state union workers. Here's the truth:
# Providing $288 billion in tax cuts and benefits for millions of working families and businesses
# Increasing federal funds for education and health care as well as entitlement programs (such as extending unemployment benefits) by $224 billion
# Making $275 billion available for federal contracts, grants and loans
There's simply no way 75% of the money went to state unions workers.
