"Recall election ordered for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker"

[Figjam]

"MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Embattled first-term Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker will face a recall this spring after an election was ordered Friday following the collection of more than 900,000 signatures in the wake of his push against union bargaining rights."

...I have only one thing to say - Bwhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha - :boxing:

 

[GordonGecko]

Tea Party group is trying to prove the signatures is phoney. They leading it actually said "We're not for the recall nor against it"....and then went on to talk about how he was a big Scott Walker supporter.

Are things better or worse in wisconsin since his election? I don't follow their politics.

 

[Figjam]

...things are better everywhere connie - http://www.latimes.com/business/mon...confidence-20120330,0,1067088.story?track=rss

Excellent news FJ! Poor guy's gonna be the first Governor since Gray Davis in California to get run out on a rail. That will be fun to see!!

And if he wins?

What then?

He won't CB no matter how much dirty money the Kochs pour in to it.

Teachers and first responders will show up in droves. They're the ones who are energized and big money isn't moving his poll numbers.

CB, if he wins....what will you say?

Now...if he loses....will you say the opposite? Or make an excuse?

 

[Corruptbuddha]

We'll see.

 

[Corruptbuddha]

If he wins I'll say that he's been vindicated.

If he loses, I'll comment on the stupidity of the people.


Same thing you'll do, only in reverse.

Lol, that was pretty funny.

 

[Corruptbuddha]

Only because it's true.

 

[Figjam]

...he will remain governor... :doh:

I say he gets the boot. I saw an interesting interview with a firefighter who's running to replace one of the lower-tier offices that's also subject to recall. He allowed as to a "dirty little secret" that he and his were committed to fixing. It was that 39+% of union members, actually voted for Walker. My guess is that Walker doesn't get many of 'em this time around.

 

[connieb]

So his union busting policies were nuetral at the worst, and an improvement at the best, correct?

Ask the people in the unions, I am sure they have an opinion.

Nope, that 39% will probably be more like 5%. Should serve as a lesson to Pugs about overreaching. Scotty never said a word about union busting during his campaign.

But it won't. Lesson, schmesson. They never seem to learn.

Of course ending union members won't like anything that negatively impacts the union. So, that is why I was asking about the economic climate in Wisconsin. Is it better or worse? What are the negative financial impacts of his policies to the State?

 

[Figjam]

...no, the economy is improving, in general - union busting is not good for anyone...

 

[connieb]

So, what were the negative impacts in Wisconsin on the economy of the state?
