Madison or the Middle East?

By |

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….

    Precisely.

  2. The really SAD part of this is, the Union Goon in Chief is coming out in full support of these assholes…

    I detest unions, and have no use for anyone that is a union member… Texas is a *right to work* state and we have a lot of anti-union folks here… I have been anti-union all my life, my father was a union member in the early 50’s, a Teamster, he withdrew, went totally independent and never looked back… One of his *better* moves…

    Unions are a lot like the Klan, both had their place in history, both were much needed, once upon a time, but that time is long past…

  4. Every teacher that didn’t show up for work should be fired. I read an article earlier and the comments were incredible. There had to be responses from 20 teachers in other States that had been laid off. Each one of them said the absent teachers should be fired and the each expressed an interest in moving to Wisconsin to fill one of the vacancies.

    Same with the missing democrats. The people of the State of Wisconsin should recall each and every one of them. They are paid to do the will of the people, not the will of the union thugs…

  6. Some may call the coming upheaval a *Civil War*, they will be partially correct, it WILL be a WAR, but there won’t be a damned thing CIVIL about it…
