At what point will *******s accuse Walker of choking some female employee or some other trumped up claims?

Exactly!!

The *******s will resort to ANYTHING in order to get their destructive ideas and agendas pushed on the rest of us. Watch the nasty, lying allegations begin. How pathetic.

Yep. School districts are saving millions of dollars, are not having to lay off teachers every year anymore, and WI residents' property tax bills are no longer skyrocketing, all due to Walker's common sense caps on the public employee unions' greedy demands.

WI residents feel like a HUGE weight has been lifted off their shoulders. NO WAY will anyone be successfull in recalling Walker.

Funny how the last remaining, desperate, lefties will still try to cling to the Obama 'hopey changey' philosophy. Not to mention clinging to the 'Democrats are going to take all the money from the bad, wealthy, right and give it to me' thought process.

Sure seems like it. He's calling you greedy for wanting to actually keep the money YOU'VE earned and use it to care for yourself and your family.

Libs don't like self-reliancy and self-sufficiency. They want everyone dependent on government handouts so that they can be controlled by the government.

See, the Left also thought the supreme court race was a referendum on Walker - they LOST big time.

The also thought the legislative recalls were a referendum on Walker - they again LOST big time.

They thought all those union/Left protests were an indication of the mood of the state, that the voters were behind them - they were WRONG big time.

I fail to see how they will win this time when Walker has been proven to be RIGHT.

But I have NO PROBLEM, no problem at all, with the Left/dems/unions spending millions of dollars in a recall election that is sure to once again FAIL to reach their goal.

MADISON, Wis. -- Wisconsin's seasonally adjusted July unemployment rate was 7.8 percent, up from 7.6 percent in June, with a net loss of 8,200 jobs, effectively wiping out gains touted a month ago.
State labor officials said 12,500 private sector jobs were lost, which was offset slightly by a gain of 4,300 public sector jobs. A month ago, Gov. Scott Walker announced that the state had a net increase of 9,500 jobs in June, saying it was the result in part of a renewed focus on drawing tourists to the state

If the lefties had put effort into recalling their previous Governor for his unsustainable overspending perhaps the austerity measures taken by the Walker administration would not have been necessary.

Just sayin.......
