When a warrior shows up, there will be a battlefield....
Don’t waste time reading this except to be reminded of how the enemy sees the world.
According to this socialist, Wisconsin’s ills flow mostly from the government not spending enough money: money on welfare, money on schools, money on job training, money for this money for that; each a favored program of the socialists. It never dawns on them that things would probably be worse if the government actually had funded their favored programs.

“Wisconsin now produces the likes of union-busting Gov. Scott Walker, and a GOP-controlled legislature enacting voter ID, onerous abortion regulations, and anti-union right-to-work rules.”
The author seems to imply this is a bad thing. I see it as advancements for the cause of working folks, the unborn and law-abiding voters. So.... who exactly is being “injured” here?
More on Abrahamson here:
Dislodge her only as chief justice.
No...the fair weather “moderates” saw their tax bills increasing and enough of them figured it out. Trust me...ultimately it is all about money. That’s why the fair weatherers are all leaving commie controlled states like CA and NY. Changing your address doesn’t change your IQ!
Prior to Walker, the special interests of the public unions were supported by Democrats (and Democrat politicians were supported financially by the union dues) and Republicans did not stop the incestuous relationship. Republicans also continued high spending and high taxation in Wisconsin.
Democrats are unwilling to compromise and want to dominate at all costs, especially by using courts to delay and not allow us to solve problems. Republicans would often cave and go along.
Scott Walker is the best leader Wisconsin has seen in a long time because he wants to solve problems and will stand up against the Democrats and special interests.
Don't listen to the idiot university types that pontificate the liberal agenda, but don't know how to fix problems.
Wisconsin stands with Scott Walker.
FTA: “...Walker...offered simple solutions for why things have gone wrong: Lazy welfare recipients, unions, gays, college students, intellectuals, Democrats, and government.”
What a bunch of garbage! Walker has never said any of that baloney. Salon is having a fit of fancy.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
“Wisconsin has a nativist culture, born of homogeneous white northern European immigration patterns, that is still fearful of outsiders, suspicious of change.”
Oh, Thank Gawd! I was afraid that this Salon article would never get around to blaming Whitey!
*SNORT*
Walker remains over the target.
Barrett et al don't want to solve problems, they just want a choo-choo train to go around the block and spend a couple hundred million and leave the taxpayers with future operating losses. Barrett et al (School Board) are unwilling to provide a quality education in Milwaukee and just spend more money from the taxpayers from the rest of the state.
If we look at the problems in America - the cities and states controlled by liberal politicians, we see democratic control and they keep raising taxes and spending and don't know how to solve problems.
Yes!
Like moths to a flame.
“David was a city administrator and director of code enforcement in New York State, where he enforced city and state housing codes as well as authored housing codes. He also was a housing and economic planner and a community organizer for a community action agency. “
In other words, David was a fascist pig illegally writing laws. This jackass needs to be thrown on a boat sailing one-way to North Korea.
-—In 2008 Professor Schultz was asked by the United States State Department to serve as an independent scholar to cover the Republican National Convention in St. Paul and meet with the foreign press and media reporting on it.
Its sad that our State Department feels that it needs to appoint a very partisan operative to explain a Republican political event to foreigners. Your tax dollars at work… for Democrats.
As far as Republicans gutting University of Wisconsin system spending…. if that were true, how did the UW system amass a one Billion dollar slush fund?
Professor Schultz is a text book watermelon.
My point was that Maryland is spared the socialist rot of NJ/NJ, IL, and CA because the wealth transfer ends in Maryland (on the federal level). Maryland isn’t thriving because of industry or business; it is thriving because federal bureaucrats infest it, and spend their ill-gotten gains there.
All of that puked up bullsh!t and not once was one of the main reasons for Scott Walker’s rise to Governor and the patience we understand we need to have bringing Wisconsin back.
Our former Democrat Governor Diamond Jim Doyle.
One of the worst, incompetent, and most corrupt people ever to be associated with this State and he spent his time in office driving this State into the ground.
While he was busy trying to kill Wisconsin with his policies the State of Minnesota had a run of Republican governors that helped shape the bounty Minnesota is prospering from now.
Give Minnesota their 8 years of Dayton and the full pain of his budgets and see if they’re doing as well.
Maryland’s current Governor is Larry Hogan, a Republican.
A small ray of sunshine.
Unabridged liberalism is the greatest conservative recruiting tool.
