The 2011 Wisconsin protests were a series of demonstrations in the state of Wisconsin in the United States beginning in February involving at its zenith as many as 100,000 protesters opposing the 2011 Wisconsin Act 10, also called the "Wisconsin Budget Repair bill." Subsequently, anti-tax activists and other conservatives, including Tea Party advocates, launched small pockets of counter protests.

The protests centered on the Wisconsin State Capitol in Madison, with satellite protests also occurring at other municipalities throughout the state. Demonstrations took place at various college campuses, including the University of Wisconsin–Madison and the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee. After the collective bargaining bill was upheld by the Wisconsin Supreme Court on June 14, the number of protesters declined to about 1,000 within a couple days.

The protests were a major driving force for recall elections of state senators in 2011 and 2012, the failed recall of Governor Scott Walker in 2012 and a contentious Wisconsin Supreme Court election in 2011........"

Is candidate courtesy going to be a one-way street?

So are the New York Times, the People’s Daily and several other far-left papers.

Hey, I think Walker is may be a nice guy, but presidential material he is not. Seriously, everyone (except you) keeps repeating the same. Personally, hearing something about Walker wouldn't be so bad, would be welcomed, if it was not rehashed and packaged with lists of past articles about Walker. Sorry, as presented, in my opinion, this is spam and even if there was something good to say about Walker, it is very lost and dismissed.

If I may, take a look at the comments from your past week's worth of Walker spam. You'll see everyone is saying the same thing about it and about him. We are stubborn, yes. A vote for Walker, No, not in the cards and as several have written, nothing shared about him has changed this one bit.

You’ve been quite vocal that Scott Walker is not your cup of tea, I can life with that.

However, Jim Robinson has not asked me to stop posting about Scott Walker.

I never said to either. I simply suggested, as have many others, that you consider not spamming about him. It is not productive and I seriously doubt any does anything but jump past it.

You brought another candidate onto this thread.

You used the title of Jim Robinson’s trending thread.

Your intent was clear.

Your post contradicts itself. Tyrants by definition do not reverse usurpation of legislative and judicial branches.

We do actually want an executive that will exercise strength to restore the rule of law and tear down the rule of man—and if someone rules like Obama but “intelligently” (that word has an ambiguous definition, remember, since “intelligence” can work in either a moral or immoral manner, and Obama has done so ideologically rather than unintelligently), things can only get worse.

If you think Scott Walker is the right guy, support him all you like.

I will admit that there are times when I wonder just how much of your posts are your true thoughts and how much of them are the public expressions of the GOPe, but hey that’s just me.

“I want a President that will RULE the Executive Branch like a TYRANT.. fire and /or prosecute anyone that does not produce what he is told to produce..”

Didn’t realize you were a Hillary fan. She’d warm your heart with her dictatorial ways.

Walker wasn't a recipient of GOP-e support during the protests, recall and judicial witch hunt in Wisconsin since 2011.

350,000 individual donors across the country helped Walker and conservatives in Wisconsin.

I'm glad it's okay with you that I will continue posting about Gov. Scott Walker.

I don’t see Walker quite the way you do.

None the less, I observe you getting criticized for posting in support of him and I wanted to give you a little moral support.

Later...

Strong leaders can have different styles. And strong leaders will alter their styles when confronted with different adversaries.

No, you know what WAS in the news. You couldn’t convince us with the paid political announcements, one sided new reports, endless harping, yes harping, and then outright attempts to diminish anyone else. Now you think it is time to pass GO and start all over again?

The bottom line is that he has and is still showing what I would call disturbing signs of being more in-line with the establishment than not, That means he is not being forthright and up-front with We the People.

Been there, done that. Tired of it. So what are you going to do when he is gone? Try for a third time to find that prize at the end of your imaginary rainbow? OH, I hate to break this to you but the Leprechauns are imaginary as well.

“Is candidate courtesy going to be a one-way street?”

Now we know you are delirious. You certainly displayed a boatload of candidate courtesy over the weekend, now didn’t you.

JFTR, the author of this article voted for Obama in 2008 and defended that decision as recently as last year.
