I heard some tool of a union rep say that the real issue is that they want collective bargaining for things like limiting class sizes.
Yeah. Right.
That and ending collective extor....er bargaining *yeah, that's the ticket* for benefits, not wages.all for what? really?
12% of their medical ins. premiums and 5% towards their pension...and this? Really?
Filibuster is legal, dereliction of duty and willful violation of the oath of office are not, imbecile.This coming from the "Filibuster Party". So be it.
and I might add, I watched gov. Walker. he made quite an impression, he answered the questions sans notes knowledgeably... directly and spoke to the points without rancor, with-in understandable and easily translatable language/term, he outlined the issues well I think.... hummmm, kinda what many people think Obama does.................

I've seen a couple of interviews also...
This dude is no pushover...
Walker's the guy to do it at this point, and the WI-GOP is pissed enough to go through with it.Wisconsin Statutes > Criminal Code > Chapter 946 > Subchapter II > § 946.12 - Misconduct in public office

But since when did democratics give a hoot in hell about the law or their oath of office?
Wouldn't it be great if they filed charges against all of them....
actually it's 12% total increase. They already pay in 5% of their benefits.That and ending collective extor....er bargaining *yeah, that's the ticket* for benefits, not wages.all for what? really?
12% of their medical ins. premiums and 5% towards their pension...and this? Really?
that was over redistricting.There was and the cowards who ditched out on their duties lost in the end.Seems like I reacall a similar event in Texas a while back?
Actually, to use a sick day under false pretenses can be a terminating offense. Lying to your employer usually results in termination once discovered.i dont think any Governor has that kind of authorityPull a Ronald Reagan on them. Tell them to be back at work on Tuesday or consider themselves fired on Wednesday. Seemed to work out well when we had this shit going with the air traffic controllers.
Oh look... the Rotunda's become a Rotarda!Oh and the crowd, rowdy, shouting down the Gov. etc....'astro-turf'...
so wheres the outrage?

Scott Mubarak won't do that: recall. He likes his office. He will bargain.Mr. Boe has a great suggestion. Gov. Walker should give them a deadline to return. If they refuse, he should then declare their offices abandoned and announce a special election.
