GOVERNOR SCOTT WALKER, STAUNCHLY REPUBLICAN, RECLAIMS WISCONSIN DEPITE PRESIDENT OBAMA'S BEST EFFORTS TO DEFAET WALKER!

I’ll probably be blasted and censored by many for speaking my mind, but someone has got to do it. Governor Scott Walker was facing union perks that were bankrupting Wisconsin; so, he asked the union membership to kick’ in about 6% toward their retirement benefits (which happens to be almost the same amount that non-union employees contribute toward their retirement benefits). As we all know, the union machine was brought out in all its glory in an attempt to literally crusn Gvernor Walker.

Now, no one could agree more that asking people to voluntarily “give-up” benefits they fought for, won, and were promised, is really unfair, in anybody’s book; whether they be conservatives or liberals. But when the alternative is the bankruptcy of Wisconsin and NO JOBS AT ALL, what choice did the Wisconsin Government have?

Moreover, if the unions are so “great” for the rank and file (we’ve all heard that the union bosses are making out like Mafia Kingpins and supposedly paying-off Democratic politicians with government mandated union dues); BUT, how come almost 5o% of union rank and file membership of some unions have QUIT as soon as they were not forced by laws (supported by union bosses) to pay exorbitant union dues? Moreover, membership in teacher’s unions in Wisconsin are also dropping off at rates that can only be described as remarkable.

God Bless you, Governor Scott Walker, for standing up to the corrupt Democrat union machine and winning. With more honest leaders like you, we can still save the United States, despite all the vermin who want to see us fail. As a matter of fact, a lot of other states being buried beneath unsustainable union debts (California, New York, and Florida, first and foremost) are watching the results in Wisconsin with keen interest, ready to follow suit on Governor Walker’s gutsy,well planned, America-saving maneuver, as fast as they can. Draw your own conclusions, although the reasons for Governor Walker’s America changing victory is obvious. It’s hard to understand how a man how ran his ticket on “hope and change” is now the best friend that the losing unions have left.

For the first time in decades, Wisconsin can pay its bills and has a statewide unemployment rate of around 6.2%: 2% less than President Obama’s highly suspect national unemployment rate OF AROUND 15.8% (after being corrected for all the false numbers inserted by Democrats who desparately want to see the union money “gravy train” flow unimpeded forever into the pockets of cowardly politicians who seem to believe they have a right to the working man and woman’s money, without ever having to EASN it first.)
