Yesterday we noted the details of a bill introduced by Wisconsin's new Tea Party Republican Governor Scott Walker that would increase payments from public sector employees while eliminating collective bargaining powers for unions (including teachers)—while also introducing unprecedented executive powers to terminate state employees with little due process. In passing, Walker mentioned plans to call in the National Guard, if necessary. It's an announcement that rankled many (maybe intentionally), including the 100,000-member "voice of America's 21st century patriots" organization VoteVets: "Veterans are strongly objecting to Governor Scott Walker's inappropriate threat…."

Woo-hoo!
Nice! I’ve got a ticker running on a local TV channel...
Prosser is at 62%, so he’s in, no doubt. Looks like his opponenet may be Asst. AG JoAnne Kloppenberg. I heard an interview with her this morning. She is as mamby-pamby as our CongressLesbian *SPIT* Tammy Baldwin! She takes on this ‘little girl’ voice that is SO grating! It’s like, if you hit her with the FACTS, you’re SO TOTALLY MEAN. *SNORT*
She’s a freakin’ Assistant Attorney General, LOL! She’s tried cases in the SC, but they didn’t say if she won or not, LOL! Only in LibTardVille could this stuff happen, LOL!
Prosser should be able to have her for lunch if he plays it right.

And that first quote from Judge Mark Frankel? I know him. He’s been RETIRED for ages! He’s like a Substitute Teacher who gets called in once every 6 months in case a judge is ill, LOL! QUITE the endorsement!
Another great day in the Super Bowl state of Wisconsin.
Go Walker! Go Packers!
You Betcha, Yah Hey! :)
Policeman: “My salary went up 2%. And after the increase in my healthcare costs went in, do you know how much my check went up Sir? $4. How am I supposed to live on that?”
Gov. Christie: “Here’s the difference. You’re getting a paycheck. And there are 9% of the people in the state of NJ who are not.”
The cop forgot to mention that his base salary is 100k a year. In addition he earns tens of thousands of $ each year in OT. Much of the OT is not necessary. Cops in NJ use it as a slush fund to boost there fat salaries ever higher. They also get a cadillac health plan that is paid for by the taxpayers (although there is a bill which will require them to pay 1.5% of there salary).
Glad Prosser took the nomination by such a high margin. If we don't get complacent, he'll easily beat JK - even if she picks up all the voters for their opponents in the primary.
I wish he had not excluded the police and firefighter unions..it would have been much better..
When did Scott Walker become a Tea Party candidate? I’m not in the Tea Party and I’ve been supporting Scott Walker since 2000 when I first heard him speak at a rally in Milwaukee supporting GWB as the winner of the 2000 Election. Tea Parties had not even been thought of then.
I really resent these Lefty Libturds and would love to see the Unions broken completely. The teachers in this state need to remember what happened when the Air Traffic Controller Union went up against President Ronald Reagan. As Donald Trump says, “Your Fired!”
