Yet the cost of the recall will be paid for by the taxpayers of the state. I hope the people of the state of Wisconsin are smart enough to see what these union terrorists are doing to their great state and hand them a sure and swift defeat. These union thugs don't care about the state or anything other than their own miserable existance. Most of the people voting don't have anything near the benefits that the unions want to give to their members, on the taxpayers dime.

I don't know how much the taxpayers will end up paying for the recall but I do know that a lot of people who don't even live in Wisconsin but who care about how its citizens are being raped by Walker and the Koch brothers are donating to the cause.

I just made my second small donation.

Good luck, Wisconsin!

Nice now you guys will never have to cut costs again....

Then you can give all the union government employees $200,000 / yr pensions and health insurance benefits worth thousands more

Then you can tax everyone the pay for it

Then you can become Kalifornia or Illinois/Broke....

Then when no one is left there to pay the taxes, you can go Madmax style, like Detroit

A whopping 301,214 signatures to recall Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker had been collected as of last night, the Democratic Party of Wisconsin has confirmed to Daily Kos. This is more than 55 percent of the 540,000 required to trigger a recall election.
Wow! And they have until Jan. 13th to collect the remaining 45%!

Over 55 percent of necessary signatures collected to recall Scott Walker

Walker needs to go!

Now, as other states move forward to upgrade their rail systems — the 110 mph train could be a reality by 2015 — Wisconsin is floundering. No 2,300 construction jobs, no track improvements, no plan.
In fact, the only new train running in Wisconsin is the toy train around the Christmas tree in the Capitol proclaiming the state "Open for Business."
"At least we have one train we can enjoy while other GOP governors get a real train,"

Hey, my name is workingclasshero, but I hate unions, which have historically been the only institutions standing between the working class and complete wage slavery. How's that for irony.
