It may be shocking to the liberal media that Governor Walker respects public employees.

...and firemen and teachers are certainly not a federal issue in spite of the obviously unconstitutional Dept. of Education.

If the issue is the number of government employees, including teachers and firemen I'll differ with governor Walker here.

One more than is necessary is big government.

I'm tired of bigger and more intrusive government being characterized (and legitimized) as "teachers and firemen".

Whenever you try to cut one of their programs, they claim you’re trying to cut police and teachers. And if you manage to get a budget reduction, or if reality forces a budget reduction, they cut police and teachers and hang on to their programs, the ones we didn’t want from the beginning.

Conservatives understand the need for firemen, police, and teachers. Leftists use them as hostages to protect their other programs. They use them to change the conversation when you try to cut one of their precious programs. And leftists won’t hesitate to throw them under the bus to protect those programs as we’ve already seen in city after city.

“Big Government” is my local Township being unable to repair damage and reopen bridges from Tropical Storm Lee last September becasue of State Department of Environmental Protection PLUS Army Corps of Engineers issues.

duh...Firemen, policemen, teachers, sanitation workers, etc. are not a federal responsibility. Nor, for that matter, are they a state responsibility. They are a local funding responsibility.

In obomo’s world, there will be US taxpayer funds larded on every state, county and city to pay the salaries of every state, county and city worker.

All to ensure more votes for the big money Dim/fascist government machine, of course.

What Romney was clumsily trying to say is that without a strong private, wealth-creating sector, teachers, cops, firemen, etc. can’t be hired. Romney should stick to a script. Bob

firemen, teachers aren’t ‘big government’

BS, everyone outside military on the government payroll is part big bloated corrupt government.

There are now more unionized government employees than in the private sector and we're being economically gang raped by these people.

Sorry to see Walker didn’t take into account the full comprehension of what Romney actually said.

I’m not a big Romney fan but he was right. Walker, after what has been thrown at him, should understand that.

If Walker is correct hes quite delusional..
The Unions WILL OWN Wisconsin, or the people will..
Walker just may be a RINO in a hard place..

If so the Unions will win... they know what’s at stake...
Probably Walker does not.. I was hoping he was a stand up man..
He may not have the balls to fight the Unions..

Because the Unions are balls out in Wisconsin..
Being soft on the Unions he will loose..
