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
What’s da matter, did your widdle union fall down go boom?
Why are you so angry at Scott Walker?
You assign immature motives to Walker. Doesn’t work. The issue has nothing to do with “emotional guttural hatred”. It is simply the right thing to do. Public sector-unions are anathema to taxpayers at all levels. What is shocking is how many people support them.
Walker is dismantling the Democrat money and muscle machine in WI - I expect that is what he will also work toward if he's in the WH executive's chair.
Watch what a candidate does, not only what he says.
Haven't we heard farmers talking about all the EPA rules, regulations and paper work that was taking all their time?
Here is ONE example of how Walker loosens their grip.
March 7, 2015 - Farm Bureau, others question Scott Walker's proposed farm research cuts
"Researchers and supporters of a program that helps farmers run cleaner and more efficient operations say they were “stunned” and “blindsided” by Gov. Scott Walker’s proposal to cut a third of the project’s funding.
Discovery Farms, a UW-Extension program that dates to 2001, applies science from a “plows-on” level, evaluates and monitors efforts by state farmers to control runoff, calibrate fertilizer use and employ techniques to conserve land and water.
It has a $750,000 budget, of which $248,000 would be cut in the governor’s proposed state budget.
UW-Extension officials noted the loss affects longstanding projects and the ability of the small program to leverage crucial additional grants and funds.
“We would have a 1.2-employee reduction of staff and we would pull back some of our sampling efforts, water quality analysis and a project (set) for Rock County,” said Amber Radatz, project co-director.
The project’s programs include monitoring 20 state farms and educating thousands of farmers on conservation strategies.
“This was a big surprise to our agency partners as well as our partners in farm groups and in UW-Extension,” she said. “We never had an inkling.”
The $248,000 comes from a surcharge on farm chemical sales that would be discontinued."..................
