Wis. Senate's Surprise Vote to Restrict Bargaining Stuns Unions, Democrats (M. Moore on his way)

NPR/PBS ^ | March 9, 2011 | Murrey Jacobson, PBS Newshour

[Cincinatus' Wife]

WPT senior news producer Andy Moore told the NewsHour Wednesday night that high school students in Madison have organized a student walkout Thursday afternoon in conjunction with filmmaker and activist Michael Moore....

[henkster]

The Senate minority leader guy, who accused the Republicans of acting in “the dark of night;” would this be the same guy who has been hiding out of state, night and day, to shirk his responsibilities?

[Travis McGee]

"We DEMAND that taxpayers pay our union salaries and benefits and pensions, which are DOUBLE what the taxpayers make!"

[bray]

You don’t have the civil right to fleece Americans.

Pray for America

[Presbyterian Reporter]

Do we know when the Assembly votes on the bill passed by the Senate?

And then once the Assembly votes, how many days, if any, before the Governor can sign the bill into law?

I am trying to get a sense if it will all happen today.

[dforest]

I didn’t think this bloated slug Moore was a Wisconsin voter.

Why would anyone want a filthy pig as their man up front?

[dforest]

I heard the vote was at 11 am central time.

[Tracker47]

On Wisconsin!
The cowards that fled rather than fight, now claim that it was somehow unfair?
You don’t vote, you can’t complain.

[FrankR]

Let them rant and rave - let the HS students walk out, then flunk them for missing classes.

If these leftist troublemakers sense one chink in the armor, it will be hell to pay.

The Republicans and the Governor should stand solidly by their decision and their vote.

No "civil rights" were nullified by this law, unions are not covered under civil rights anyway. The unions' right to screw the taxpayer was limited somewhat, but no one has lost their "rights".

[eyeamok]

Seems to me that if these students walk out of school for Michael Moore and his agenda, they should all be EXPELLED IMMEDIATELY, furthermore The fat slob should be Prosecuted for encouraging such a thing.

"Do we know when the Assembly votes on the bill passed by the Senate?"

The Assembly is supposed to vote today, but I am worried if the demonstrators with a compliant police force, will allow the legislators to get to their jobs. Also, even if the /Assembly meets, the Democrats will try and delay the bill with endless amendments and talk.

I am wondering what would be the most useful in controlling the Communist Mob. Dobermans, German Sheppard's, or Rottweilers.

They hypocracy is just stunning, isn’t it? These people really DO think differently.

[cripplecreek]

Generalisso Moore is now calling for arrests of the rich.

He needs to be very publicly confronted with some questions about his hypocrisy.

Why are you calling for arrests of the rich from your mansion on Torch lake?

Why did you accept a million dollar film subsidy just days after saying this?
( “These are large multinational corporations — Viacom, GE, Rupert Murdoch — that own these studios,” said Moore at the Traverse City event. “Why do they need our money, from Michigan, from our taxpayers, when we’re already broke here? I mean, they play one state against another, and so they get all this free cash when they’re making billions already in profits. What’s the thinking behind that?”)

Its time to take the pig down.

[Carley]

Oh, the class, the civility, the patriotism, the civic duty.

Thank you Wisconsin republicans for your courage and your devotion to your state and our country.

[CMailBag]

I think they are meeting at 11 AM, but I’m sure there will be a lot of stalling going on AGAIN.

The Assembly will vote - and pass - the bill today (Thursday, March 10th). It will be on the Governor's desk by late today or first thing Friday for the signing ceremony!

Personally, I hope they seal the pens he uses in clear lucite and display them right next to the US Constitution for the next 500 years or so!
