An Urgent Message from Dick Morris and Scott Walker (Looks Like we are winning)
Just got this Email today:

Dear Reader:

When I appeared on Fox News with Bill O’Reilly and I publicly urged Gov. Scott Walker to begin massive layoffs of state employees.

The Democrats in the state Senate are playing a stall game.

They believe time is on their side. That key Republicans will cave and push Scott Walker to a “compromise.”

We cannot let that happen!

I am urging Scott Walker to not just threaten layoffs, but begin them.

This way, Democrats will have to come back to the state capital, Madison and finally allow the democratic process to go ahead and do what they were elected to do: vote!

My sources in Wisconsin tell me the millions of dollars the big unions and Obama allies have poured into the state have had an effect.

Many supporters of Scott Walker are getting cold feet.

This is why the League of American Voters efforts are so important.

The League has been running radio ads across the state, supporting Scott Walker and revealing the big unions’ real agenda and the threat it poses to taxpayers.

The big public employee unions know what’s at stake. If they lose in Wisconsin, they will lose in many other states across the nation. They will lose in Washington.

They will not only lose their wrench-like grip on high salaries with lavish health and pension benefits, they will also lose their monopolistic control of sectors like education.

I believe that Gov. Walker’s proposals lay the groundwork for states all across the union to allow for firing incompetent teachers, to begin offering merit pay to the good teachers and even school choice programs.

If once liberal and blue state Wisconsin is able to defeat the public employee unions and the teachers and close down their rackets, the floodgates will open.

That’s what’s at stake. The unions and Obama allies know it.

And they are acting in a big way to stop us and Gov. Walker.

The League is one of the few groups in the nation fighting in Wisconsin.

Right now, they want to roll out a TV ad to air across the state to support Gov. Walker.

But they need funds to it.

I can tell you that already the League has had a powerful effect.

Please help them – Donate Here Now

Thank you.

Yours for America,


Dick Morris

P.S. Gov. Walker is under enormous pressure. I am urging him to move against the outrageous behavior of Democrats blocking a vote in the Senate. He needs to do layoffs now. But he also needs strong public support at this critical juncture. Please help the League show its support for Gov. Walker – Donate Here Now

They seem pretty rattled. Wish we could apply a French Revolution solution to this scumbag. On Pay-per-view no less. Oh well one can dream..

1. i think at this point if walker starts layoffs, it's just going to increase people's militancy.
so i say, let him try.

3. Agree, they are playing with fire and are to stupid to
realize it. The Genie is out of the bottle. There will be ever increasing militancy from our end now.

2. Allow the Democratic Process to go ahead...
so we can hurry up and replace any Republicans who are going to vote against us.

The man's name is Dick for a reason.

10. Just for giggles...
"(League of American Voters) shares the same street address and suite number as "Americans for Tax Reform" (ATR), a group that has received funding from the Charles R. Lambe Foundation, which is one of a group of foundations that were created from the family fortune of David and Charles Koch, the billionaire brothers who lead Koch Industries"

Now who woulda thunk that?

12. and this reminds me of why I came to dislike the Clintons...
they hired this piece slime in the mid 1990s to help with triangulation! They helped this whore mongering, toe sucking POS garner media credibility and attention (before his extracurriculars hit the fan, though they don't appear to have hurt him any). Then like Steph, he made a career trashing them and abetting the right wing.

It speaks volumes when people inspire such disloyalty.

14. LOL. If Walker's dragging out Dick Morris, he must really be desperate.

17. Did Walker drag him out or
is Morris just taking advantage of the situation to make some money?

I would bet on the later.
