“Gableman, who wrote the opinion, is part of the conservative majority of the state Supreme Court. Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson and Justice Ann Walsh Bradley, the court’s two most liberal members, dissented. They argued the law unconstitutionally infringes on protected rights.”


The author conveniently forgot to mention that the third liberal on the seven-member Supreme Court of Wisconsin, Patrick Crooks, voted to uphold the law. In June 2011, Crooks had been one of the three liberal dissenters in a case that upheld the collective-bargaining bill from a challenge prior to it going into effect.

Good for Crooks, he must be the local Stephen Breyer, ie votes the right way once in a while.
