Corporate money coming from out of State to Scott Walker......VASTLY overwhelms the revenue of all four Democrats.

That's to address the 2nd lie in this thread.

Spending on Walker recall already surpasses previous record - JSOnline

Corporations and the rich want the middle class to lose this race.

Scott Walker is a courageous man - he has the will to do what is unpopular and has consistently stood up to those who opposed him. And his reforms are working.

I think he's too socially conservative, but I greatly admire him standing up to the unions among other things. He is a hero.
Why do you say he is courageous.....because half the state opposes him yet he does what he wants anyway And what reforms of his are working. You think someone like that is a hero.....really? Heros should be held at a much higher standard then what you bestow on Walker.

The Koch Brothers?? Five years ago, few people, even among those familiar with journalism and statecraft, had even heard of them. What drew the Lefty-robots scorn to them was the simple fact that they, along with a lot of other people, worked to build something that didn't blindly parrot the MSM "consensus".

Not only are the Lefties more and more prone to tripping over their own rhetoric; some of them are beginning to retreat into conspiracy theories which would make ol' Joe McCarthy sound like a Kansas schoolmarm.
It is very common for the false intellectual to make the hastily presented comparison to Hitler's germany when introduced with the word "Fascism"
The true meaning of the fascist doctrine is explained by the creator himself Mussolini, that "Fascism should more appropriately be called corporatism, as it is the merger of corporate and government power"

This is a perfect example of Mussolini's definition of what we are witnessing in Wisconsin. A governor of a state that is controlled by a large corporate power, and as explained by Mussolini, a fascist.

The Koch agenda has been well known for decades going all the way back to the Koch's father, whom was the co-founder of the radical right wing John Birth Society.

The Koch's also have had secret bi-yearly meetings for years with GOP politicians, federal supreme court justices, and other corporatist such as themselves.

Also key provisions to fascism, is that labor power is to be suppressed, while corporate power is to be embraced.

What we are witnessing in Wisconsin with Walker up and beyond coordinates with what an anti-american fascist agenda is all about.

This further confirms that your statement of: "It's going to bne (sic) a real pleasure to laugh in the face of you Fasci-liberals when Walker is re-elected."
Is completely false and downright laughable.

Talk about a rat faced dolt with dead eyes. Only in Wisconsin, the home of Ed Geen, Jeff Dahlmer and the corpse raping idiots would they vote a moron like this into office.


Show me where there is competition in getting him booted? No polls have anyone beating him in the recall.

Wisconsin will be doing good to get Walker back into office, unlike that jerkoff democrat called doyle who put Wisconsin in the hole in the 1st place.

people just dont like it that a republican was willing to make the hard choice instead of a democrat.

Gov. Walker has done a very good job balancing the budget. No teachers have been laid off and more teachers have been hired. The big savings came from allowing the local school districts to buy the medical insurance on the open market vice being forced to buy the union medical insurance. It is a real scandal that the union was forcing the taxpayers to buy their overpriced insurance.

I thought it was a real crock that my daughters grandmother, as a teacher only had to pay $1 to get a prescription and nothing for her doctors visit.
she used to brag to me about her having to pay almost nothing for medical. guess she thought it was her due after being a teacher for 30+ years.

In spite of the idiotic OP....BRAVO to Governor Walker. He did what he HAD to do to save the majority of the people of that State from a SHARP tax increase that would go to pay for the pampered public union employees benefits.

Tough decisions must be made in government, and sometimes they are unpopular. But people elect politicans to office so that they may govern in the BEST INTERESTS OF THE PEOPLE. That is exactly what he did. I wish the clowns in washington had that same attitude.

He WILL be confirmed as governor.
