Boy, you can really tell which side is willing and able to play hardball, can't you?
I usually don't try to out-guess those who have more intel and are calling the shots but in this case it sure seems like Gov. Walker and the Senate Repbulicans need to amp it up a few notches.
Must be some video.....lets get it viral...
I thought the recall (of Republicans) was being spearheaded by the Democrats. Please, someone clear this up.
I'm praying that at least in WI the media is showing this. In IL there is not all that much coverage other than the spin about how the unions are sending buses to WI to "help" their cause. I would think the citizens of WI are getting pretty fed up with these unions "sucking them dry" and in the end a Rat Sen. will be recalled.
So far it seems he's held his ground and by not countering the "thuggish" behavior of the unions he will gain support if the media in WI is showing what's going on.
The free ride mon keeps whining.
His tin cup is missing.
In the meantime, the business of the people (through their elected representatives) must be done. What is the immediate remedy for Senators willfully derelict in their duty?
Union Gangsters will be neutralized only when we fight just as hard in public. Many conservatives I know are afraid to publicly protest these thugs because an arrest for “disturbing the peace” means automatic revocation of all firearms licenses. The system is set-up to silence anti-union dissent.
Vickie MCKenna Newstalk 1130 (online) is talking about the issue of the 14 Fleebaggers being directed by the National DNC, Obama’s Organizing for America. The liberals including George Soros MoveOn.org, Howard Dean’s group, SEIU, AFL-CIO for funding the recall elections of 8 republicans - Special elections will cost each local governemnet 150,000.00 in additional expenses.
It is getting to be noted that the Unions do not want to give the money. There will be millions spent by outside groups to change wisconsin Novemeber 2010 election results.
FRs just so you know.
You can’t know what kind of wimps Walker and Fitzgerald are. They actually think the best way to handle this problem is to ask us for donations to fund the re-election campaigns targeted Repub senators. Yeah, right. Not a dime from me. I found out what I already paid for - a pair of pansies.
They can take any one of those 14 into custody the next time one of them enters the state (and they do all the time) - take him/her to the Capitol and get the quorum. Once the quorum is in place, the ‘Rat can go back to IL.
But, no, our Repub “leadership” wants to go through the recall process. Setting a precedent is too scary.
Opps Unions do not want to give up the money from the issue of mandatory deductions to voluntary payments.
Walker is not compromising to the point the media is trying to portray - read the articles read the emails and the media is distorting the message.
It is a systematic effort that smells of desperation and just plain old denial,it is unlikely that the Democrats are going to be wielding any influence within a few years.
Basically these tactics would be “acceptable”(functional in a sense)if the Democrats could consolidate power afterwards,as is the Dems are going to be pushed out anyway.
The Unions are just painting themselves in a corner as a bunch of a reactionary thugs who owe it old to the leftist regime of 2008-2010.
Vickie McKenna will have Scott Walker on in the 11:00 Hour (CST)newstalk 1130 Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Please note the recalls will not be resolved till August. The dems may try to stay till as late as August.
