And they can turn around and repeal the law after they retake the majority in 2012. So really, Walker is threatening to lay people off over a petty little game he wants to play.
The statewide euphoria of a well deserved Super Bowl victory is being tainted by a bunch o' crooked politicians, greedy unions, and equally greedy union members......Sad Really!It is sad, but these 14 ignorant Democrat Senators are causing "real" people to lose their jobs.
People who have families and children. All they have to do is come back and do their jobs and it could all be avoided.
Obviously they care more about paying back the Union leadership that helped get them elected, than representing the people of Wisconsin. Pretty sad state of affairs in Cheese-head land......
And lets not forget those children whose RIGHTS to an education were stepped on by greedy teachers who abandoned their classrooms, and caused thousands of parents to suffer financial hardship, in already difficult financial times for
them, because they had no choice but to take off work at a loss of pay to
ensure their children were being properly cared for, and not out running amok
because those teachers were more concerned about themselves.
Yeah. Those greedy teachers. I mean how dare they even think about getting paid. I mean don't you know that 50 grand a year buys you a Mercedes, a mansion and gold bricks mother F'er. GOLD BRICKS. I mean for real teachers make bank, they make it rain.
Shit man, good thing I have these republicans to tell me 50k for a 15 year experienced teacher is so rich. Shit, I gonna buy me some cristal with my Mac and cheese and ramen noodles tonight.
Unless one of the runaways walks into the Capitol in the next 5 minutes, it sounds to me like the pink slips go out first thing in the morning.
It is a shame that 14 overtly corrupt politicians have put the lives and livelihoods of every public employee, as well as their families, in queue BEHIND the special interests that grease their palms. Shame on each of them!
They deserve the fates they have chosen.
So the Public Workers move from productive jobs to vacation time and unemployment checks. They will get what they deserve for 52 weeks or more.
no thats not how the game is played. You make the accusation, you need to back it up.
Because if the roles where reversed you would want me to prove it that way as well.
I know how people like you and mini like to work.
Link it or shut the fuck up.
You want a link for an opinion?
Google is your friend.
i want a link showing these guys are corrupt for leaving.
I want a link showing that special interests are the reason they walked out.
Nobody seems to be able to.

Polk,
Bottom line is they are ALL going to come back before the 30 days.
At which time the Speaker will call for the vote.
At which time the Democrats will be registered as either "Present" or "Opposed."
At which time they will lose the vote.
At which time collective bargaining is dead for the public union.
They have already lost the war, they are merely posturing now to try and salvage what they can of the union support.
But even the union knows it is over.
They just haven't told the members.

As stupid as the OP is, he did get one thing right. The 14 Dems did walk out because of special interests - the special interests who lined the pockets of Walker, that is. Koch Bros anyone?
BTW, if you silly cons think Wisconsin voters are happy with Walker, you have another thing coming. Walker is losing support big time. I suspect that as soon as it's legally possible, a recall campaign will be started against him.
This issue is much like the Illegal immigration issue... The longer the Senators let people think about what’s going on the more people will learn. The more people that become educated about what’s happening the less support the Dems and Unions will have.
Hint: this has NOTHING to do with group bargaining being done away with, nothing...

How naive, you think this is the end of things.
As Sir Winston Churchill once said: "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
Do you support the monopoly the Union has, that people cannot opt in or out of the Union based on liking what that Union has to offer?

Hmm, I think the more people know, the more they will favor Dems and Unions, because retards always distort the truth.

The Unions don't have a monopoly. You're missing the point of my post anyway.
I don't think it's over at all. Where did I say that?
I think the fight for collective bargaining is over, but I've been around unions enough to know they will not simply throw up their hands and say "oh well."
They will fight like hell, but this war was lost before the Dems fled the State.
Why do you think they fled the State?

You're dumb... end of story.

As long as they don't find other work, yes, they will.
And guess what?
The State can afford that. Its been factored in.
