‘Walkerville’ camp at Capitol Square in the works to protest budget (here we go again)

With lawmakers gearing up for a vote on the state budget, a “Walkerville” camp similar to the one that sprang up during the protests at the state Capitol earlier this year may be returning this weekend — this time to the terraces of Mifflin and Carroll streets.

We Are Wisconsin, an alliance of community groups, labor unions and others, has asked the city for a permit to set up the camp across from the Capitol to provide information about Gov. Scott Walker’s budget proposals and efforts to recall Republican legislators who voted to eliminate bargaining rights for most public employees.

Shouldn’t abuse alcohol.

That statement just stands on its own. Prayers for Wisconsin. They are blessed with a leader. Prayers for our republic, which is led by a puppet of unknown evil.

Where oh where do these people find the time between their work shifts to do this stuff? /s

What a coincidence. I’m going camping this weekend, too. Bear country.

Brilliant!! :)

[Free Vulcan]

Ha, so did I!

More fitting anyway.

They are all living off the government. Many are state and local government employees whose supervisors (who agree with them) look the other way. 50-60% of Dane County residents are living off the taxpayers or are students living off their parents.

We’re so tired of the crap. We’ll keep on fighting, we’ll beat this battle. We are not going away. This is another battle to tackle. Bring it on, SUCKERS. Wisconsin is not lib, we never have been. We’re fighting back the cities that pretend our state follows them in lock step. Bring it on.

I'm sure the timing (this weekend) has nothing to do with schools letting out for the summer. All those overworked teachers with their next ten weeks of paid slack on their hands...

I’m pretty much to the point where Madison could get nuked and I wouldn’t shed any tears.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Aim true because I’m only 10 miles south, LOL!

The tide really is turning. I hope they protest long and loudly again! The rest of the state is TOTALLY fed up with Madistan, the Unionistas, the Hippies, the state workers, the teachers, etc.

It truly is p*ssing off many hard-working citizens throughout the state...which bodes well for us in the upcoming recall elections, and I think had a lot to do with the Judge Prosser win on our Supreme Court. :)

an alliance of community groups, labor unions and others,

They should call it Obozoville.

Yeah now I heard today on Belling’s show that Rats from Illinois are going to come up and flood Alberta Darling’s district and rally for her opponent.

I’ve never seen a union thug that wasn’t complaining about not making enough money. Those are some greedy bass turds. They aren’t very fond of paying taxes either. They are always trying to come up with some scheme to beat the taxman.

We gotta’ stand by this guy, Walker.

In the last month I have been to both a funeral and a wedding where gratuitous leftist politics have been added to the ceremonies. I have never seen anything like it. The Dems in this town and the teachers all over the state seem to have lost their minds. Although, at the wedding, the mother of the groom was a teacher and the very first thing that they did after the ceremony was apologize to us for the little political barb that the “minister” added to the ceremony.

The government workers are in fact the millionaires. If a small business owner were to retire at 55 and receive $50,000.00 per year in retirement, not uncommon for teachers, at the bank interest rates at the moment, if he lived to be 75 he would have to have a million dollars put away, not counting the health benefits that the unions also receive. If that same teacher lived to 85, it would be a million and a half. These government workers are the true untaxed millionaires.
