He sounds like a winner.

If he is pro-amnesty, I think it is his Christian values that are being skewered. But his deep conviction to keep Wisconsin’s working, may change him on this issue, when he sees how illegals are worst than unions for undermining working American citizens.

I really admire Walker too. The episode at the beautiful capital was epic with the protest, occupation, representatives hiding and how he had to go it alone with meager Republican support!

Walker is very good...EXCEPT for his support for “immigration reform” - code speak for amnesty.

We don’t need no steenking “immigration reform”.

We just need to follow the law and...
1. DEPORT ALL ILLEGALS
2. Build a wall and defend our borders
3. NO BENEFITS & FREE STUFF for ILLEGALS in USA
4. Fine companies that hire & employ illegals

Given the rules of engagement we’d have to operate under, there is no way I’d expose our troops to combat in Mexico.

If we could arrange WWII style RoE (kill them all, sort them out later), then MAYBE.

And remember the Cartels have a border with us and can operate in the US. Can you imagine what they’ll do when the fight back?

” a recall election in 2012 prompted by anger over a law that effectively ended collective bargaining for most public workers...”

The foregoing is an excerpt from the press report accompanying the Video of Walker’s victory speech.
It misrepresents one aspect of what Walker did for public employees (ie., state classified workers and school teachers). He did not end collective bargaining. What he did terminate was compulsory union membership for both school teachers and state classified employees,with union dues paid annually by state clerical workers using state appropriated funds. Now those desiring union membership must pay their own dues using their personal funds.
That was BIG!!

Yes! I remember calling for him also. What a war scene up there he had to fight!
The title of this article indicates he needs a review of what IA’s cost us without even starting on the societal, law & order meltdown they cause.
