Odd this thread is about a budget surplus and folks are howling about jobs? Hell the way you folks defend the great orator one would think you would be happy if walker didn't hit his goals for job growth. Remember the unemployment rate would never go above 8% if we pass the stimulus and all?? I guess only Obama gets a pass on that from left handers. lol
Go into a thread about the Stock Market and job creation will be the most talked about thing. Same with the GDP numbers.
The other side always changes the subject from any positive. If you haven't figured that out by now then just give it up. One side will never compliment the other in C-D. Never!
So quick to scrutinize economic data from the federal government but Walker releases rosy (read skewed) budget projections in the midst of a recall campaign that otherwise wouldn't be released until next year and you'll soak it in. Where's the scepticism? You'll certainly can't be so easily swayed from your distrust of government because Walker is an (R)?
So not paying your bills is considered a proper form of money management according to the State Government of Wisconsin? I need to move there.
If Scott Walker holds on to the governorship, it will be a HUGE blow to the unions and will resonate across the 'RustBelt'. In fact, it might even invigorate the WI Republicans enough, along with national happenings, to push WI really into a 'too close to call' status for the Presidential race.

No it wont. There was already a vote in Ohio where their new teabagger government also brought a similar middle class attacking bill that was repealed by the people by solid double digit numbers. The far right's attacks on the middle class will likely cost them Ohio, as well as wisconsin.
Obama is +10 in Wisconsin right now.
So let me get this straight. Walker is delaying payments and has taken up debt worth 78 million dollars.
If you do a few calculations, one could easily argue that Walker just raised the debt comparable to what Obama has done with the country. 78 million dollars is a big number for 6 million people.
When Obama runs up the debt to help the economy, bad. When Walker does the same, good.
When Obama says "My office says...." he's a lying communist socialist whatever. When walker says, "My office says...." he is taken for his word and the fact that he is ignoring the debt numbers while using projections, that's right, projections from his own office, no problem.
Oh, and being dead last in job creation? Doesn't matter, because Walker is a Republican.

Wow.
That's all it comes down to with the radical right. They can completely destroy the country, attack the middle class, be owned by corporations, spend like lunatics, rack up massive debt, it doesn't matter and it's actually a good thing, just as long as an (R) is doing it.
Well Walker is up nine points in the latest poll. Apparently all these evil tax hikes the haters are squealing about aren't too much of a concern. I think folks are tired of all the thugs being shipped into Wisconsin by the dems telling em who they are supposed to vote for myself. One would think the libs would realize folks don't like bullies with all the anti bullying screaming they do. Of course with democrats it's always do as I say not as I do.

The timing is a little too convenient.
I am quite surprised that more people aren't immediately suspicious.
