I have noticed that democratic forums (we know who) are very much in defensive mode right now all for unions and for what their senators are doing.
WAR IS COMING TO AMERICA... THESE ARE THE FRONT LINE TROOPS FOR THE EVILCRATS AND THEIR COMMUNIST AND ISLAMIC ALLIES. PREPARE... PRAY... THAT THEY NEVER START IT... BUT THEY WILL... THEY HAVE PLANNED THAT DAY FOR 40 YEARS.

From Scott Walker vs. Public Sector Unions by Stephen F. Hayes (The Weekly Standard)
February 17, 2011 —
Walker is unapologetic. These are difficult times. Wisconsin is facing a budget crisis. And there have to be cuts. Walker believes the changes hes proposing are relatively modest. Im asking them to contribute 5.8 percent of their salary to their pension right about the national average for contributions. And Im asking them to pay 12 percent of their health care premiums up from 6 percent. The national average is around 25 percent.”
So Wisconsins public employees will still have benefit plans more generous than most workers across the country. And these steps are being taken with the express purpose of avoiding major layoffs and dramatic paycuts. But the unions don’t like it.
Whats more, Wisconsin teachers pay as much as $1100 each year in compulsory union dues. If the legislation passes, they will no longer be required to pay those dues returning that money to their own pockets.

And this is EXACTLY what it’s all about! The Unionistas have their mindless idiot minions frothing and doing their bidding. That’s a heckuvalotta cash when multiplied by the 100’s of thousands of union workers to stop flowing into their coffers, and they are NOT going to stand for this, no matter who (the kids, our state, our country) gets hurt!
You are so right! If union dues are mandatory, the unions remain strong simply because of the money. If the teachers are given a choice on whether to pay the dues, I believe quite a few would say “no, thank you”. Hence, risk cutting off the gravy train and you have people who will do whatever is necessary to remain feeding off its host. IMHO.
Wish the media would cover that angle. *SPIT*
It makes it all crystal clear!
Unfortunately, you are correct.
The Congress (inept, asleep, traitors) will do nothing
as the pRes_ _ent and the MSM stoke up their troops
for a Civil War of murder led by Jim Lehrer, the DNC,
and Obama-the-Undocumented-Tyrant.
The governor and legislature are in office due to the overwhelming WILL OF THE PEOPLE—the majority, the Republicans and dare I say it,the WINNERS. All those rallying red shirts *look* like they will win, but they LOST and need to go home. That is the case in Ohio, Michigan, etc., etc. The unions aren’t going to get much sympathy from their fellow state citizens. The people have spoken and it wasn’t for organized labor.
The Socialist—the Communist, and the Queer, and most Democratic Politicians of late— follow the same modus opperendi they charge others loudly and often with the very crimes they themselves(or their leadership) are guilty of. They act like Hitlers Brown shirts, or the old movie Mafia type.Why-Because it works.most Americans will tolerate anything -even the Devil himself -until they feel it up close and personal.and when they begin to have their personal lives
affected by what the opposition is doing they rise up and do as Americans did in every war we have ever been deployed to fight.The beguiled in Wisconsin are not all bad people-but many are deceived.And these protesters are being stirred up by evil men.
I did see on Fox this morning that many of the demonstrators are paid. They have no dog in this fight... just doing what the union tells them. The reporter asked a few teen kids why they were demonstrating and they had no idea. Some of the kids were just happy to be out of school... see how happy they are when they are going till July!
Speaking of Wisconsin, anybody know if it’s taxpayers are paying for that Democrat road trip tantrum?
The one question that everyone seems to be ignoring in the Wisconsin debacle is why exempt public safety workers? If you're going to tackle a problem, you can't make exceptions just because one sector might cause more disruption than another.
Sic Semper Tyrannis is the motto of the state of Virginia.
Coming to NC soon!

This is a Democrat Governor. Did I wake up in an alternate universe?

public safety workers are next. lets win this battle first
I question whether Liberals and union memebers actually think. They do what they are told to do and think.
I bet that the majority of signs were made by the union thug leaders for the protestors.
Liberal think is the party line and reason and logic are not part of their emotional reactions.
Watch Mayor Barrett parrot the party line and is unwilling to support balancing the budget as required by state law.
The Democrat party is corrupt and the little babies go hide in Illinois. They should stay there permanently.
