Re: Wisconsin Republicans vote to strip public worker collective bargaining rights wi

Guess you all need something to get excited about to divert from that lack of leadership by Obama. I believe you all are going to be extremely disappointed when you find out where the money is coming from and how many of those signing the petitions are out of district and thus disqualified. Liberal thugs will do anything to destroy individuals that go against the unions many of which are no different than the Mafia.

Who do you think in the GOP will draw the short straw to have to run against Obama? I think they will save their best candidates for 2016, when they just might have a chance of beating him.

By "him" are you referring to the Democratic party?
Obama can't run three times...

Doesn't make any difference at this point and unless the economy improves they could run anyone to defeat the empty suit there now. Only the braindead will vote for Obama a second time.

45% Approve of the job he is doing while 54% disapprove. That doesn't bode well for re-election. Guess those against him are paying attention to the actual results where you only pay attention to the rhetoric.

Why would anyone vote Dem with Obama at the head of the ticket? I cannot imagine the damage he could do in 8 years after the damage he has done in two plus. His resume showed zero leadership skills and he hasn't disappointed.

Yeah, that's why I think the GOP may have a chance of beating Obama in 2016. ;)

Re: Wisconsin Republicans vote to strip public worker collective bargaining rights wi


I thought the run around the open meeting law was going to come back to bite them:

"Dane County District Attorney Ismael Ozanne filed the lawsuit this week alleging the open meetings law was violated because 24 hours' notice wasn't given for a meeting of the special legislative committee convened to amend the bill.

Justice Department attorneys argued that notice on a bulletin board posted about two hours before the committee meeting was to start last Wednesday was sufficient under rules of the Senate.

The judge said DOJ couldn't show the committee was exempt from the 24-hour notice requirement. She said Ozanne could ultimately win the case and ordered Secretary of State Doug La Follette to hold off on publishing the law — the last step before it can take effect. La Follette had planned to publish the law on March 25."

But that's only because Republicans in Congress didn't care about the tax cuts for you or me (unless you are uber wealthy) - so, of course, it was the right thing to do.

Try as you may, you aren't going to be allowed to ignore the fact that Republicans vowed to turn down any legislation unless the "sacred" tax cuts for the wealthy were included!

McConnell said that Senate Republicans would simply refuse to work on other measures until the current Bush tax cuts and other federal funding issues were resolved.
But what McConnell and his fellow Republicans did not say is that the Bush tax cuts are not necessary for the government to continue operations or funding, nor did they say that the tax cuts that the Republicans particularly support are those that continue to enhance the bank accounts of America's most wealthy income earners while adding nearly $800 billion to the federal debt over the next decade.

man up conservative, man up


It's obvious that someone is AFRAID of debating one-on-one - he may have to do more than repeat the same things over and over. Most of us have figured this out from experience!

These polls mean nothing when it comes to election time - so dream on conservative. The Gee Oh Pee has nothing that can beat Obama. Bring on Donald Trump. lol

I agree.
Most Americans are stupid and they will vote for Obama again.

You do not even know who is going to be running against him. How do you know it would not be more stupid to vote for the other guys (or girls)?

Wouldn't an intelligent person wait to see who was in the running???

Right, polls don't matter but results do. You seem to have no interest in results but continue to buy the Obama rhetoric. 15 million unemployed Americans, less employed today than when he took office, debt created will exceed Bush's at the end of fiscal year 2011, meager economic growth, the worst performance in history two years after a recession, the Middle East on fire, no leadership skills. The President isn't a contestent on American Idol so stop treating him like one by voting for him because you like him personally. He lacks leadership skills and the results are a disaster.

Catawba, you show a lot of people the insight into an Obama supporter and how you are still in awe of the Obama mystique and rhetoric that ignore the results. Leadership skills, economic and foreign relations results, his individual actions don't matter at all because in your world your perception is reality.
 
Re: Wisconsin Republicans vote to strip public worker collective bargaining rights wi

because doing so violates the rights of the workers, is a violation of federal law.

it's a violation of federal law; but why is it any more a violation of the workers' rights than making membership in a union a condition of employment. if a workplace says "if you work here, you can't organize into a union" then that is no more or less coercive than them saying, "if you work here, you must organize into a union."

what exactly is this post supposed to prove?

the utter implausibility of your claims that janitors and bus drivers are coming in with more than $100 million in small amounts of cash and giving it to their unions cause they just like them.

no. as of yet there is not a single Republican contender for the post that is not a superior alternative to the Navel Gazer in Chief.

If your goal is to impose a radical right wing government upon America which destroys and repeals all the political reform of the 20th Century, that is probably correct.
 
Re: Wisconsin Republicans vote to strip public worker collective bargaining rights wi

not all; but i would like to see large chunks of our mistakes of the 20th century gone or at least modified, yes. the entitlement system, for example, seems currently on track to break us.

however, unfortunately i have yet to see a presidential hopeful say the same; though having one endorse the Roadmap would be a positive step in this direction. but as of yet it seems that none of them are as "radical" as necessary for us to avoid fiscal ruin.

Yet, Obama is imposing a far left ideology on a center right country. He is exactly who his resume said he was and the people ignored it but are now waking up. Your vision of the country and his is contrary to the majority in this country. People bought the "hope and change" message but their definition of change was different than Obama's. We are seeing the results of the Obama definition and it is being rejected. The November 2010 elections were a start.

I see at least 4 out of the 8 descriptions there that fit the Pelosi/Reid/Obama method for doing things in the past 4 years. Name any number bills passed, regulatory agencies "imposed" extra constitutionally, Taxes levied in the form of something else. And you have the nerve, the gaul to moan and cry when a bloated, corrupt liberal monster that are now called Public Sector Unions, have their bourgeoisie, corrupt little deals, paid for by the other citizens that are paid less, and have less benefits? GTFOH!

which destroys and repeals all the political reform of the 20th Century, that is probably correct.

If it is about destroying the extra Constitutional entitlement class, in favor of getting back to the basics of the Constitution, and Reigning in spending to programs, and things that are far out of the scope of the Federal Government in the first place, as well as, rendering moot the leviathan that seeks to strangle the spirit of this country, while shifting as far from the founding fathers vision as they can through centralizing what was never meant to be centralized, then I am ALL FOR IT!
