Union Uprising – American and Proud

Walker Maybe Wimping out.

By Robert | March 8, 2011

Hate to say it but I figured it would happen. The nuts are very small in these new Republicans. There are two ways this ends. Either the Demorats win and get their way or the Republicans do. IF Scott Walker GIVES anything he loses. He is on extremely firm ground and he’s being bullied by a wave of media and leftist losers. IF he folds in any way shape or form, the stage will be set and the nail in the coffin for any possible reform ANYWHERE will be struck!

Wisconsin Governor Proposes Union Compromise in E-Mails

Appearing to blink first in a nearly three-week standoff with absent Senate Democrats, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker offered to keep certain collective bargaining rights in place for state workers in a proposed compromise, according to e-mails released Tuesday by his office.But the e-mails weren’t enough to end a stalemate that has drawn national attention and ignited a storm of protest from union workers and their supporters.
Sen. Bob Jauch, one of the 14 Democrats on the run in Illinois to block a vote on Walker’s original proposal, said he hoped the compromise would serve as a blueprint for future negotiations. But he and Sen. Tim Cullen, who were both working with Walker’s administration, said the latest offer was inadequate.
The e-mails, some dated as recently as Sunday, show a softened stance in Walker’s talks with the 14 Democrats who object to his original proposal that would strip nearly all collective bargaining rights for public workers and force concessions amounting to an average 8 percent pay cut. Republicans, who control the Senate, can’t vote on the budget measure unless at least one Democrat is present.

Walker you need to man up, you were placed in office to fix the problems, you were chosen to solve the budget problem, you were put there to STAND not BOW. You sir will not be seen as “Wise” nor “Moderate” nor will the left “Honor your sacrifice” they will use you as tool. Just like they have every compromising Republican for the last 50 years. STAND UP and win, fold and you will kill the dream of fiscal solvency for every state in the union. No pressure, but you gave us hope. DO NOT STICK US IN THE BACK.

Madison or the Middle East?

So the unions and the state are having a bit of a tiff over how to solve the budget issue. The Democrats don’t like the way the Governor is handling the unions that will be affected by the cuts and the bargaining agreement is going to go bye-bye… Awe, poor wittle babies don’t get their way so they are leaving…

Senate Democrats boycott Thursday vote on Walker’s budget plan

Madison — Law enforcement is now searching for Democratic senators boycotting a Senate vote on Gov. Scott Walker’s budget-repair plan Thursday in an attempt to bring the lawmakers to the floor to allow Republicans to move forward with action on the bill.

But one Democratic senator said that he believed all the members of his caucus are in another state.

In a press conference just off the Senate floor, Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau) said that Democrats were “not showing up for work” and that police were searching for them to bring them to the floor.

“That’s not democracy. That’s not what this chamber is about,” Fitzgerald said of the boycott to reporters.

Sen. Tim Cullen (D-Janesville) confirmed Thursday that Democrats are boycotting the Senate action on the bill in efforts to block a quorum and keep the measure from passing. Because 20 senators of the 33-member house are needed to be present to pass a fiscal bill, the body’s 19 Republicans will not be enough to pass the budget repair bill without at least one Democrat present.

I wonder how much media attention would the Republicans get if they would have tried this stunt during the healthcare battle? Or in California over ANY Liberal policy that has crushed this state since the 80’s? Instead of being ADULTS, they run away? Typical of democrats. All I can say is “See what you get when you vote Democrat?” You get a party full of cry babies, and runners from responsibility…

Once you take away their ability to call you “Racist” and hate mongers the details and facts they make up get crushed by reality. I hope Wisconsin sticks to their guns. Let the universities close up, let all the public schools close up. Freeze teachers paychecks. No show up no work. Cancel all sick pay, that will save a lot of money….

How dare anyone expect for the sacred teachers union to pay for their bennies like the rest of us. How dare the union have to deal with the same economic fluctuations that the rest of us have to deal with… The gall….
