Sorry, libs. As you bring chaos to Madison, Wisconsin, Americans are not supporting you in your cause. In fact, we are getting fed up with the demands coming from public employee unions. Scott Walker is a hero, and he is doing exactly what the people of Wisconsin elected him to do. As President Obama once reminded his opponents, "Elections have consequences."
Read from Weasel Zippers:
Poll: American Voters Support Wisconsin Republican Gov. Over Unions by a 48% to 38% Margin
"Unionized entitlement class hardest hit.
'A sizable number of voters are following new Wisconsin Governor Scott Walkers showdown with unionized public employees in his state, and nearly half side with the governor.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 48% of Likely U.S. Voters agree more with the Republican governor in his dispute with union workers. Thirty-eight percent (38%) agree more with the unionized public employees, while 14% are undecided.
In an effort to close the states sizable budget deficit, Walker is proposing to eliminate collective bargaining for public employees including teachers on everything but wage issues. He is excluding public safety workers such as policemen and firemen from his plan.
Thirty-eight percent (38%) of voters think teachers, firemen and policemen should be allowed to go on strike, but 49% disagree and believe they should not have that right. Thirteen percent (13%) are not sure.'
As for the teachers who have not shown up for work, they should be fired on the spot. Imagine someone pulling a stunt like that in the private sector.
President Obama has thrown in his two cents, siding with the unions, of course. Interestingly, his poll numbers are slipping back into the gutter.
I vaguely remember the American Pravda coming out and condemning hateful political rhetoric used against the opposition. Somehow, they forgot to report about the hate coming out of Madison.
