Victory: Scott Walker signs collective bargaining bill
Hotair ^ | 03/11/2011 | Allahpundit

Posted on 03/11/2011 7:02:02 PM PST by SeekAndFind

He already signed it this morning, actually, but they went ahead with a special public ceremony in the afternoon so that he could sign it again. Just because. Reminds me of Pelosi talking that long walk to the Capitol before the ObamaCare vote in the House, waving that giant gavel around that looked bigger than she is, chuckling all the way. The left keeps promising that Walker and the Senate GOP will pay for this, which may or may not be true. But if and when it does, let these three words comfort you: “Minority Leader Pelosi.”

Meanwhile, the newest tactic from union shills is to send letters to Walker’s campaign donors promising a boycott of their businesses if they don’t now become good little union shills themselves. Reciprocating could be a fun project for Wisconsin tea partiers. Pick a liberal-owned business, essentially at random, and organize a boycott aimed at crippling it. That’s a nasty tactic, but then we’ve spent three weeks of watching screeching cretins try to intimidate and occasionally even outright threaten Republican legislators. If our moral superiors on the left want to fight dirty, we should be sportsmanlike and oblige them. Click the image to watch.

Sign it a THIRD time just to make the unions cry.

Col Scott Walker: “I love the smell of public unions crying..it’s the smell, the smell of victory”

awww - did the earthquake shove the unions great unwashed off the news???

Did any of them show up today as planned and were there any cameras there?

This will definitely put a crimp in their strike and march and shout and threat campaign. We'll be following Japan for some time to come - and I doubt the cameras will bother to go back to Wisconsin after the bloom is off the story.

ahahaha

A better strategy would be to patronize GOP supporters who are in business. I know I do.

Score for the Badger State!

Badgers are pound for pound the baddest dudes around, short of their cousin the Wolverine.

This is a great victory for the conservative movement.

Wouldn't it be fun to organize mass Tea Party patronages of any business being picketed by them... get a few hundred Tea Party folks to cross a picket line at once.

It’s not in any way an either/or choice.

“Any doubt that Unions are communists greedy thugs and their actions are proof.”

The most important result of the WI situation is that the Kenyan Pirate publicly sided with the teachers’ unions against the taxpayers AND voters; he tried to undo the results of that state’s governor’s election by forcing taxpayers to foot even larger bills for our public-school-teacher overlords. His supporters among the talking heads admitted a week ago that this was a serious mistake by Obama.

That’s exactly what I’m going to do - patronize conservative businesses, but how do I find out if they’re conservative?

If this fails in Wisconsin the whole country is finished.

We ought to highlight such companies like Chick-Fil-A” and here on the west coast “In-and-Out Burger” both of which are family owned by Christians (Chick fil-a closes on Sundays)...

I watched Gov. Walker sign the bill - WHAT was he doing? Looked like he was making little marks with a bunch of different pens? I don’t get it.

Kinda reminds me of the time The Redskins beat The Cowboys in the playoffs with a touchdown at the very end of the game. The refs made The Cowboys come out of the locker room so The Redskins could kick the extra point. Still brings a tear of happiness to my eye.

One pen for each letter nets maximum number of commemorative pens.
