If nothing else, now a union member can tell his union to stop donating to a party that is trying to ban his guns and pushing queer marriage. If they don’t listen to his demands he can dump them.
Before RTW about 50-60% of bluecollar union members would complain to the union about those and other issues, and the reply was always...yeah we agree but the RATS do other things for us.
Would you want to donate $75 a month to someone you hate just to keep your job? Don’t forget, it’s not your employer that signs your paycheck making that demand, but a parasite that feeds off you.
It’s like a PETA member being forced to donate to the National Association of Factory Farms, or the Catholic Church being forced to donate to an abortion mill.
You think Walker is going to be a good president because he did a good thing in Wisconsin.
I get it. He got rid of the unions. What he did had a good effect on his state’s economy and encouraged people who don’t like unions.
If I ask why he did it, I get the same reaction I would get from my teenagers if I asked them why they like a certain person of the opposite sex. Emotional guttural hatred. So I don’t ask. I wait until that person shows his true colors and let the breakup happen.
I can’t ask why people like Walker for the same reason. they have a crush. He’s dreamy. I’m being a buzzkill. My mistake is expecting the voting public to act like adults.
If I ask a teenager why a guy likes her and wants to take her out, she’ll say because he loves her and they’re going to get married some day. Ok. But I am not going to let her stay out late with him, or allow him to distract her from her studies.
She would hate that and would hate me. Same when I ask what Scott Walkers intentions were and are. NOt allowed to ask.
People liked BO. He is black. Sort of. They vote for him. Because he’s black. Or they want him to be. They say race relations will improve. He’s also a Democrat, so they say everything will be better because he’s Black and a Democrat.
They know nothing about him nor what he is going to do to protect and defend the Constitution of the US, which is the main part of the job.
Now we have Walker. Who is he? What is he going to do to protect and defend the Constitution? He busted unions in his state. Ok. I hated being forced to be in a union when I worked in NY. I moved. Not because of it, but it’s a plus.
Unions are not unconstitutional. Half the voters like them.
Is Scott Walker going to come in and get rid of all the unions in the country? Is that his platform?
If it is, I haven’t heard him say it. And if it is, what is his reason? Does he hate unions for the same reason you do? or is it for another reason? Why can’t we ask without getting hatred? It’s just a question.
Texas doesn’t have unions. Does that mean it doesn’t have a growing problem made much worse by the action and inaction of congress?
How is Scott Walker going to help? He can’t bust unions in Texas.
He’s going to bust the unions in New York and New Jersey? They’re going to let some Midwesterner without a college degree in and bust their unions? In Maryland, on the main street in Annapolis, among of the most prime commercial real estate in the country, is a building a multi story building with brass lettering, the Teachers Union owns the building. No telling what the cost is. Why is it there, among quaint shops and restaurants? They’re going to give that up because we vote in a guy from Wisconsin?
OK. I am just asking his motivation.
We have John McCain in the senate and he’s screwed up our pres election more than once. He already gave us BO, no one talks about that.
What has he done? He’s a war hero. What did he do? He got shot down and survived the Hanoi Hilton. A lot of guys did. They are among the best we have. some have served in congress very admirably. They didn’t run on that, they ran on what they could do.
We always like to say John McCain will do what we think he’ll do because he got shot down and survived.
What did he do in the military? How did he get into the Academy? How did he do in the Academy. The answers to those simple questions shine a light on what he’s done in congress and why BO is president and not him
Here’s what I get in sunday morning emails that wake me up if I forget to put don’t disturb on my phone:
“Conservative Matt Salmon Can Defeat John McCain! John McCain’s Support For Amnesty And Higher Taxes Is Not Acceptable! Please Help Matt Salmon Win This Race!”
This is keeping me from sleeping on a sunday morning.
I could have told them this in 1998 after I called McCain’s office- he was chairman of the Senate armed services committee by virtue of having been shot down over North Viet Nam as a young inexperienced officer and capitalizing on that for the decades since- to discuss military personnel reaction to Clinton. No interest. None. fundraising for his presidential run. I got solicited for cash to help him run for office.
20 years I tell people McCain is not a good leader. Wha? he got shot down and survived the Hanoi Hilton, you can’t say that!
Ok but I’m getting this email Waking me up Conservatives are after him. After 40 years of his ignoring conservatives, I’m getting this.
Can I simply ask why Scott Walker busted the unions?
Just why?
