Walker sealing his own fate with lay-offs
He thought the teachers were relentless before - just wait until they have all the time in the world to hit the streets while laid-off.

1. AND, I think it's going to give former repubs supporters time to let the
actions of the governor sink in. I imagine this consideration will not be in favor of Walker!

2. I'll bet he has a "LIST" somewhere and he's gonna make sure that only
Democrats get laid off.

4. Probably but I don't know if he's even THAT 'smart'....Walker just keeps
stirring up the pot! Does ANYONE advise him? If so, they're all sick.

3. He is carrying out the threat I see
Lemme see, the last time he tried this... well he had to pay back pay and all that. This is GOING to the damn courts.

Oh and the come to jesus moment for many "republicans" is just happening. THAT is why grand ma, in a few cases, great grand ma never voted for Republicans and she talked highly of FDR... NOW I GET IT!

9. With the current state of our Media Democrats will ALWAYS get blamed
Sometimes the American people are able to see their way through the Bull Shit.. I don't know if that will be the case now but many people are going to be hurt and some will be Republicans and they won't be wearing their boot straps..Even Republicans have elderly parents that will be hurt.

10. I don't think so,
in our local paper today: 100 pro walker people at recall rally for Sen. Wirch - most got back on bus for next town...(very few from here attended) - only 2 pro-walker letters in paper with about 18 for workers and commending Sen. Wirch for staying strong and doing what is right.


I know, I know anecdotal doesn't really show a broad view, but I think walker is gone next year.

7. Once this gets through the courts, and back pay is reinstated, this will cost a hell of a lot more
than Walker ever thought it would. This man is poison.
