Stand firm and show the state of WI and the nation what the fleebagger Dems really are




Walker and GOP legislative leaders had sought to pass the budget repair bill before he gave the larger budget speech and even delayed it for a week to allow for more time. But Democratic senators have blocked passage by remaining in Illinois, leaving Walker and his GOP allies in the Legislature to deal with both proposals at the same time.

Meanwhile, Walker said Democrats need to return by Tuesday and pass the repair bill or time would run out on a deal to delay payment of $165 million in state debt to solve the budget problems this year and avoid up to 1,500 layoffs. Democrats denied that, offering a different plan that they said would avoid layoffs.

"Now they have one day to return to work before the state loses out on the chance to refinance debt, saving taxpayers $165 million this fiscal year," Walker spokesman Cullen Werwie said. "Failure to return to work and cast their votes will lead to more painful and aggressive spending cuts in the very near future."

Werwie said Walker was giving the Democrats 24-hour notice. He added that the governor will delay sending out layoff notices "as long as possible."

Werwie said that it would take a 30-day process to lay off union employees and a 15-day process to lay off non-union workers.

SAN FRANCISCO (Politically Illustrated) – Wisconsin's Republican Gov. Scott Walker on Monday demanded absent senate Democrats return to vote on a measure limiting the rights of union workers, saying, "failure to return to work will lead to more aggressive spending cuts."

“Now they have one day to return to work before the state loses out on the chance to refinance debt, saving taxpayers $165 million this fiscal year,” said a spokesperson for Mr. Walker.

“Failure to return to work and cast their votes will lead to more painful and aggressive spending cuts in the very near future.”

The budget proposal, along with his support to curb rights for public sector workers, has triggered mass demonstrations in Wisconsin and around the nation.

“Does he truly believe Democrats are going to be like ‘well, I’ve fled the state for a couple days, now I’m going to return home because Mr. Walker told me so?’” Ron Fontman, a resident of Madison, told Politically Illustrated. “The Democrats are not coming back, regardless of his silly 24-hour time limit. What’s he going to do?”.............................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ..........

The bill is not killed, Noir. The Wisconsin Senate requires a 2/3rds participation to have a quorum and without the Democratic Senators they cannot commence normal business. The Senators are supporting the Union members and other constituencies that are protesting the idiot governors decision to simply end his responsibilities to the collective bargaining process that exists in his state. I'm considering going up there myself and do what I can for the good people of Wisconsin and the United States of America.

Gov Walkers responds to Pres Obama and his snide comments:




Gov. Scott Walker on Monday afternoon responded to comments President Barack Obama made earlier in the day about the protests in Madison:

Walker’s office issued this statement:

“I'm sure the President knows that most federal employees do not have collective bargaining for wages and benefits while our plan allows it for base pay. And I'm sure the President knows that the average federal worker pays twice as much for health insurance as what we are asking for in Wisconsin. At least I would hope he knows these facts.

“Furthermore, I’m sure the President knows that we have repeatedly praised the more than 300,000 government workers who come to work every day in Wisconsin.

“I’m sure that President Obama simply misunderstands the issues in Wisconsin, and isn’t acting like the union bosses in saying one thing and doing another.”

I remain confused as to your failure to recognize the mistreatment of both the labor force and the legislators of Wisconsin by the rather unprecedented and otherwise inexplicable actions of a state Governor that I consider to be either be on a power grab, being coaxed by someone else on a power grab or simply incompetent in his own rights. I am not familiar with their Senate rules nor their collective bargaining agreements but every labor contract that I ever had anything to do with, and there have been many of them, had specific clauses that dealt with the issues of disengagement, striking, mediation, binding arbitration,etc.

It simply seems to me that some individually wealthy politicians would gladly ride the backs of the relatively low paid workers to escape their responsibilities to behave fairly and according to prior agreements to recognize the representatives, whether paid or elected by the employees, to negotiate in the interests of the employees which is the red meat of employee Unions. Corporations, small businesses, managerial types, professional organizations from every walk of life and field of endeavor organize amongst themselves to protect their own self interests. The employees should not ever be placed in any position to not be allowed to do the same. That just wouldn't be fair or American according to me and every reasonable person that I know.

My choice is to disengage from any meaningful conversation with the not so honest broker of information sharing and take that chance on looking like the troll or retard like you say.

There is no hope for me ever attaining yours or logrollers abilities in the smarts and debate skills department but that doesn't stop me from loving what you do and occasionally dropping in to try my hand at it just a little bit.

It's getting good in WI. Looks like the Gov is not backing down from the cowardly fleebaggers




Madison — Republicans in the state Senate ordered Democrats on Thursday to return to the chamber by 4 p.m. or be found in contempt of the Senate - a move that means Democrats could be taken into custody.

"We simply cannot have democracy be held hostage because the minority wants to prove a point," said Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau).

Senate Democrats have been out of the state since Feb. 17 to prevent passage of GOP Gov. Scott Walker's budget-repair bill, which would eliminate most collective bargaining for public employee unions. At least 20 senators must be present to pass the bill, but Republicans hold just 19 seats.

The Senate adopted the resolution to find Democrats in contempt on a 19-0 vote. It says they are violating a Senate rule that requires senators to receive a leave of absence before being absent for a day.

Fitzgerald said that Republicans were initially "nervous" about taking such a step but that Democrats have created a "constitutional crisis."

"This is not about a budget-repair bill or about politics," Fitzgerald said. "This is much bigger than that and the minority party has forced our hand . . .  They're insulting the very fabric of our representative democracy."

Sen. Chris Larson (D-Milwaukee) said Republicans were overreaching and questioned the legality of the steps they've taken.

"They're just going around the bend on this stuff," he said. "I just think it makes them look like bullies, look more divisive, than they have been already."

Larson said the Democratic senators have "been talking to some lawyers. This thing is going to be shot down. They don't have that authority. They are reaching for more power than they have got."

Asked if the Democratic senators would return Thursday, he said, "most likely, not today."

Republican Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said he had not advised GOP senators on the resolution. Asked if it was constitutional, Van Hollen said he had not reviewed it.

The gov. did NOT abide the voters wishes by ending collective bargaining for the public workers that he didn't personally like in Wisconsin, red. I have seen not ONE shred of evidence that his actions were precedented in any way or even desirable in any stretch or that they were in any way to actually be connected to the budget or even the forecast. The Union members,as they are always prone to do as their representation is professional, recognised the situation in Wisconsin and in the same manner as most Federal employees and many other states and even many private unions and job entities allowed the state negotiators their wishes and advise to freeze the wages and benefits and even reduce them in many cases Presently the polls reflect that 62% of the people of Wisconsin are not happy with the uncalled for and incompetent actions of the governor and he grows closer to recall as each passing day without a return to sanity on his part.

By all means PB keep showing your contempt for the voters. Keep flipping them offf. Keep telling them they have to pay more and more of their income in taxes

Keep acting like the snide and cocky liberals like you did during the 2010 election

Even after the biggest defeat at the ballot box since the 1930's libs like you still do NOT get it

You still think government is the answer to all problems. People need to pay more in taxes. And now it is fine with you for unions to mug the taxpayers

I damn near pity people like you PB

The Wisconsin Senate requires a 2/3rds participation to have a quorum and without the Democratic Senators they cannot commence normal business.

The Senators and Union members and their supporters WILL prevail.

Libs like PB are is deep depression today. The nerve of those damn Repulicans winning an election, taking over the majority of the State Legislature, and actually passing laws they priomised they would pass!

Dems ran away when they knew they could lose the vote, and yet the let calls Sarah Palin a quitter

Go figure
