So you are in support of public buildings, paid for by the taxpayers, being taken away in a dictatorship fashion?

Scott Walker AKA the tea party high school drop out should be the shift manager at a McDo's, not governor of a state.

Throw the bum out

I agree. That is why we have already recalled two representatives and are in the process of re-calling (firing) Walker.

I live about as far from Wisconsin as you can get without leaving the continent, so I don't have a horse in this race. And I know little about Walker, as it's just not something I need to research extensively, but I will say this....

Even IF the state union workers who are ticked off that he finally brought them back down to earth are successful in recalling him....that entirely good decision he made with regards to union busting the state is still going to be on the books, and it's not coming off. So no matter if he finishes his term, gets recalled, or gets re-elected, his governorship will be termed a success to anyone with half a reasonable thought in their head.

Should point out that, historically, 40% of signatures on a petition are always invalidated when they are submitted for verification. So there's still an awful lot of signatures that they need to collect if they hope to even put this on the ballot.

I guess using that logic, Obama should not be re-elected because either way most of the things he's passed like his health care bill can't be un-done.

Scott Walker is in the pocket of Koch Brothers. He serves business interests, NOT the people of Wisconsin or his constituents.

And I know little about Walker as is evident by the next paragraph, as it's just not something I need to research extensively because your lies are fine?, but I will say this....

Even IF when the state union workers who are ticked off that he finally destroyed Wisconsin teachers brought them back down to earth are successful in recalling him....that entirely good horrible and anti-education decision he made with regards to union busting the state is still going to be on the books that is true, and it's not coming off wait and see. So no matter if he finishes his term, gets recalled, or gets re-elected, his governorship will be termed a success complete failure to anyone with half a reasonable thought in their head This is not Arizona.
This.
