Truth is there is no reason whatsoever to have unions in any government hiring at all.

They do not belong in the public purview and we already see how popular they have become in private enterprise,all but disappeared.

Government jobs started to be Government service jobs and have morphed into political dole out BS jobs with front running commie unions behind it all.

Time to end it all.

Agreed completely Fish, but what you are doing is being done around the Country. The Country Clubbers are being thrown out by the Tea Party in every state just like yours. Too bad we can’t throw them out of the Establismedia?

Although I agree, maybe not.

If 0bamacare is still here we may need to lower the retirement age because the death panels will be killing many senior citizens and the 0bama economy will be killing children, in addition to those killed using free abortions for everyone.

Hi Fishtalk, I agree: we’ve got a fight like anything for Palin to prevail. She’s my candidate and I think she’s up to it, but she’s going to have to come out very good and very strong early, or Mittens will steal it and Obama will have another four years.

Too many in the Establishment would prefer running a broken, minority party than see a reformer win it for us—and what she might bring.

True enough fish.

But we have the Trumph card (no innuendo meant there)which we continue to play.

The RNC is close to broke and has been ever since we started funding individual candidates. They know we hold the cash cards and unless they straighten up we will never give them a dime forever.

Plus if they want anyone elected they need our energy,excitement,and expertise,all things they lack being blue bloods.

What you have here with the public service unions, is a collective bargaining unit that sits down and negotiates with a government representative who is bargaining with money NOT coming out of his or her pocket, who will eventually benefit from such bargaining should it bring extra money to union coffers which will be turned around to become campaign contributions for who?....the negotiator!

There’s nothing even remotely fair about this process.

I wish the pubs would get out and explain this better. I do believe the dopes across this fruited plain who carry this country on our backs would understand it.

We have a couple of elected pubs fighting back against the public sector unions,...Christie, Walker...etc. But it’s still business as usual.

Keep the Dems in power until they spend the state into near bankruptcy. Step aside and let a pub come in and clean up the mess.

Soon enough, after Christie bargains down those unions and tamps down their out-of-control demands, the citizens of NJ will get fat and happy and they’ll vote another Democrat back in. Probably same with Walker.

They have to get these public sector employees out of the unions. However, the Federal law allows the employees to vote for union representation and it must be allowed if they so vote.

The vast majority of employees, of say, Sears, over the years, even Walmart, do NOT vote to be represented by a union.

Welcome to that nasty little thing called “card check”.

Subject for another day, another time. But it’s how these unions are gonna keep their power.

Headline should be something like this: GOP, Fearing Obama Veto, Folds on $100 Billion Budget Cuts Promise

Agreed. See The House GOP's "High Noon Moment," Part 2

You can tell what issues Obama feels strongly about and comfortable with discussing by the speed with which he speaks out.

For example, he shot off his mouth immediately (and unwisely) about the confrontation between the professor and the cop, leading to the beer summit.

He was pretty quick to condemn Arizona’s efforts to enforce their borders.

Although he is pro Islam, he didn’t speak about Egypt until his advisors had huddled and told him what to say. He is not that knowledgeable about foreign affairs.

But give him something he’s familiar with — a good old battle between the unions and the mean conservatives and he shoots off his mouth faster than Raylan Givens can shoot his gun.

Hehe, a little heart failure never hurt anybody.

Ann we still love ya, it’s just every once in a while you try to be liked. Perhaps you can take a step down too and be her Press Secretary, you certainly have the legs.

Palin/Buchannan w/Coulter as Press Secretary and Malkin Sec of State. It’s starting to look like Rush’s 1st Amazonian Womans Brigade?

Pray for America

Obamacare remains a huge fly in the ointment for both sides. In the interview I reverenced on c spam earlier with little Timmy G. ended with an empashioned plea by tiny Tim to keep Obamacare funding in tact. He knows if it falls a part its just another House of cards.

Hey Bray.....

WE WON!

I sure hope you’re right, that other localilities are cleansing the RINO rolls.

Thread goes to comment 200 I’ll put up my summary.

We won, it was most magnificent.

I’m saying, right now, it won’t be easy.

BUT WE WON!

Lesson here, hang in there. As hackneyed as it might sound, truth and justice WILL prevail.

2012 will be a reverse of that. The media and other Dems will have a harder time supporting or defending 0 while the GOP, tea party patriots and independents will flock to the candidate who represents what America really stands for.

Even Donna Brazile had a hard time supporting obama this morning on ABC.....she was the only one even trying. I hope bray is right about Palin, but I'm not sure if the media's full frontal assault has not done exactly what they wanted it to do...take her out of contention in 2012

We shall see. I think we could all be surprised at the GOP candidate this time around. Everything has changed in the last couple of years. A person like Gov. Walker could throw his hat in the ring and win the primary. He shows leadership and understands fiscal restraint. I predict it won't be a typical presidential election season.....the only thing typical will be obama will be the dem. nominee. Other than that, who knows.

If bray is right....about Palin.....that would work for me!

Actually Obama is the one who will do it. (Republicans fault)

This is exactly how the boy king and his Joseph Goebbles like media will depict the event.

EVERY REPUBLICAN NEEDS TO GET IN FRONT OF CAMERA (ANYWHERE), HOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE, AND STATE THAT OBAMA "LIES". It will be OBAMA, or the RAT Sentate, not the GOP, that shuts the Govt down.

DO NOT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS FRAUD WHEN IT OCCURS.

The GOP has so much to learn about optics and kick back, it makes me want to hurl.

Exactly, very few blue bloods that will do the kind of work that a Sarah Palin has done over the past few years.

She is a true patriot and knows how the country was created,by hard working people who give a dam.
