Default Walker Go Home!

Some 4,000 teachers, fire fighters, laborers and other working people rallied against the extreme agenda of union-busting Wisconsin governor Scott Walker in Springfield, Ill. They had a clear message for Illinois politicians that attacks on pensions and collective bargaining won't be tolerated here. April 2012

Yeah...waste of time trying to save United Soviet State of Illinois, Scott.

Best to return home, and save another $1 billion dollars with your "successful" programs.

Anyway, the comrades left protesting there are funnier.

Walker Go Home! - YouTube
What working people? They're goofing off at a protest!

And they're "clear message" was that real working people should shut up and hand over their cash to their betters.

Public Employee unions are organized thuggery. Pure and simple.

How about a heaping of the Democrat's new "tone of civility"?...

This is a case of being wrong based simply on broad-stroking. As I tell the liberal posters here who make blanket statements about Republicans, when you deal in absolutes you will be wrong 99% of the time.

Now if you were to make your comment more logical and truthful and say "Some public unions sometimes display traits of organized thuggery," you would be 100% correct.

Making dramatics remarks hinders your points, not reinforces it.

Everyone with an IQ above 3 in Illinois will say on June 5th if Wisconsin gives in to the union thuggery and votes Walker out "please Scott come down here if the union thugs don't want you in Wisconsin"

I think Walker will win. Petition signatures are public so threats of beating of people if they didn't sign made people sign. Teachers telling kids they will know if their parents signed the petitions got people to sign. But votes are different.

Of course the union thugs are rounding up the dead to vote. And naturally they will like democrats always do make sure that the military can't.

Remember the democrar motto vote early vote often even if you're dead unless you are a member of the military. That's true in Illinois and has leaked north.

No, some 4000 well indoctrintated union members walked in lock step with what their leaders told them to do. GOOD SHEEP!!!! Fight the sheep dogs do the bidding of your wolf masters.

I hear the unions are getting pissed at the Democratic party, because they cut tail and ran from the campaign when it started to look like Walker was going to win. They're saying now they might not support the Dems in the presidential.

So...after Walker kicks ass (and it looks like failing voter fraud he's going to) this farce of a recall is going to be the gift that keeps on giving for the Republicans.

The better idea would be for Walker to win and continue providing real leadership...And THEN having the surrounding states say "What Walker's doing is working! Let's do the same thing!"...
