Do you hear what I hear?
Inside a small chamber, Walker and his small cabal are smiling broadly, patting themselves on the back for doing Koch bidding....he blindly thinks he won. He stupidly thinks he killed the unions in Wisconsin.

He just gave every middle class worker all across the nation a big giant FUCK YOU. He thinks Koch will give him a goooolddden parachute.

But I hear something else....heard long ago. I hear a rallying cry. It is NOT over. He has NOT won. He has just given unions a reason for being....now more than ever.

And until he steps back from his fascist takeover....until he restores collective bargaining....until he nullifies his deal with Koch and the utility companies that Koch covets....the demand that he step down immediately - not even wait for a recall....will grow in volume. General strike.

Take it to the streets. Now is the time to take a stand. It is not enough that they bring the world to the brink of economic ruin - and we grimaced, but tried to get by. We lost jobs, but we grimaced and try to get by. We lose our homes to bankruptcy....and grimace some more and try to get by. But enough is enough. No more triangulating. No more crumbs. General strike. Or a national sick in. No more buying. No more work. No more commerce moving. No more banking. No more paying taxes. No more nothing. Let it all grind to a halt. Egypt is reborn in Wisconsin.

Thank you Walker- for now we have finally found OUR voice.

3. All the more reason to strike
Strike to demand his immediate resignation.
