Wisconsin Budget Surplus

I have copied and pasted something someone wrote that pretty much sums up Scott (slime) Walker's intentions. Diane Ravitch has it in a nutshell. Of Scott Walker, she writes: He expects that over time, most public workers will stop paying dues, especially now that they have to pay more for their healthcare and pension benefits. And thus will he cripple, perhaps permanently, a perennial political opponent. If Gov. Walker succeeds, there will be no organized voice to oppose hi ...

I'm guessing this may get some of our friends on the left fired up. Here you go. It sounds like the kids are actually the winners here. Sweet. Union curbs rescue a Wisconsin school district "This is a disaster," said Mark Miller, the Wisconsin Senate Democratic leader, in February after Republican Gov. Scott Walker proposed a budget bill that would curtail the collective bargaining powers of some public employees. Miller predicted catastrophe if the bill were to become ...

The state's investigation into vote irregularities in Waukesha County will stretch back at least five years. In many cases, the number of votes totaled more than the number of ballots cast. This is the district where Prosser won by the "found" 7,000 votes. See link. No comment. ...

Listen to the whole thing...it really gets nasty with the female voice screaming F you F you. Kudos to the Dem senator who finally was able to turn the mob back. Hey, rest of the Wisconsin workers who are NOT public union members...they are basically saying F you too, pay up. Oh...and no palm trees here. LOL. ...

I spent the last few hours reading it (I really hate legalese-LOL) then did a search on collective bargaining. I did see where they wanted to tie raises to the CPI but can't find it now. Anyway, the pages that I found CB in the search are: Pgs. 955-964, 998, 1045, 1061, 1312, 1332-1334. So, tell me where they are stripping collecitve bargaining from the unions. Fair question. ï»¿http://legis.wisconsin.gov/2011/data/AB-40.pdf ...

The verbiage in this article is astounding. The Dems held the government hostage as much as they accuse the Republicans of. All this rhetoric about attack on the people of Wisconsin...what a load of hooey. They act like there is not a person in Wisconsin who is NOT a public worker. What about the REST of them??? The ones that have to foot the bill through their tax dollars?? And all the unions/Dems can do is try to whip up the old class warfare crap. Wha ...

Go Wisconsin! What is happening in your state? Apparently, the MSM does not seem to be covering much of this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUlZe8nQUA0 ...

Madison -- A low-level state employee was fired Thursday after he sent an email to his fellow employees telling them about the state Department of Transportation’s policy on giving out free photo identification cards for voting. Chris Larsen, who had worked in the mail room at the state Department of Safety and Professional Services, sent an email Thursday morning to all employees at the agency’s headquarters explaining that the DOT would provide photo IDs to people only if they specific ...

Madison - State election officials ordered July 12 recall elections on Monday for three Republican state senators, setting the stage for what could be an unprecedented summer of recall elections. The Government Accountability Board, which runs state elections, voted unanimously to schedule the recall elections against Sens. Dan Kapanke of LaCrosse, Randy Hopper of Fond du Lac and Luther Olsen of Ripon. Next week it will consider recall petitions against six other senators. In all, citizens are ...

Walker is doing great work in Wisconsin, even a lot of the libs (sans the unions) are happy with his economics. Romney would follow the same success rate when he's elected, and his loudest critics today just might begrudgingly admit he knows what he's talking about. ...

MACIVER INSTITUTE – At least 30 Wisconsin municipalities failed to send absentee ballots to military voters before the 45 day deadline, according to former U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs, Anthony Principi, and he’s demanding the Government Accountability Board address the problem immediately. As reported by the website WisPolitics.com, Principi sent a letter to the GAB on Monday pointing out the failure to meet the 45 day deadline is in violation of Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Ab ...

Check out the background video running with the superimposed banner in the upper left corner (starts at 0:14 with another excellent view between 0:26 and 0:30) while Bill-O and Tobin weave that wicked web.

This is what the unions are up to lately. I think it's ridiculous. This is a free country and they are threatening to boycott businesses that do not put their signs in the store supporting the union. They are out of control. So now they apologize....is that supposed to make everyone feel better? UNION GROVE - Local union members apologized to business owners Thursday after hearing union leadership threatened to boycott businesses. The stunning development happened ...

'Scuse me for any typos or double remarks if any. I am trying to type this as he speaks. He plans to veto earmarks (how can this happen-there is no line item veto), cut LIHEAP program, freeze federal employee wages for 2 years (didn't they already do that?), cut military spending as Gates wanted, will work with everyone to simplify the tax code, but it sounds like he doesn't want to change anything with SS. He wants to increase taxes for those earning over $200K. Then he wants to ...

By Walter Alarkon - 04/20/10 08:50 AM ET Senate Democrats have written their budget resolution so they can pass jobs legislation using reconciliation, the controversial process used last month to move healthcare reform. The resolution does not specify what specific jobs measures could be covered, and does not explicitly allow for the use of reconciliation rules to pass energy legislation or the extension of George W. Bush-era tax cuts set to expire at the end of the ...

Question for liberals - if Obama is such a wonderful president and manager, can anyone tell me why he has not had a budget in 3-1/2 years? He is such a dismal failure. Having a hard time admitting it, I guess. The Romney/Ryan 2012 ticket is now the ticket of hope. I have more hope today than I've had in a long while. ...

The sequester cuts are only 2.4% of the whole debt and most won’t take place for another month. A message for the Democrats: STOP THE SPENDING. STOP THE WASTE IN THE GOVERNMENT SPENDING; I.E., The Zombie training, the shrimp on the treadmill study and all the other stupid projects that received millions of dollars. There’s where your 2.4% cuts should be and this is what the Republicans were trying to get stopped last year. Anyone read Tom Coburn's yearly list of th ...
