What the Recall Today Is Really About
19By Ruth Conniff, June 5, 2011

Nice effort, Alfred;  but this crowd, much like most of the right, has been convinced for too many years that labor unions are a sinister socialist plot.  After all, teachers, firefighters and highway administration diesel mechanics get into those businesses because of the obscenely lucrative benefits provided by the Comintern, giving them a life of enviable comfort and luxury, full of the finest meats and cheeses in all the land.

   If the Comintern were picking up the tab for 84K/year we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Unions, like corporations, are fine so long as they do not use their money and influence to corrupt the democratic political process.  The Public Sector Unions cannot help but do so since that is their only function.

Some of them are also probably turned off by Strix's posts.

84K a year? In Wisconsin?  Really?  Stop smoking so much dope.

Oh, man, have you swallowed the FOXNews bullshit hook, line and sinker.

Was Special Ed crying on MSNBC?

Yeah, as a member of the Division of Parole and Probation, he's certainly raking in the mad quan, alright.

Ed was surprisingly positive, fuck you very much.

Delusional, you mean.  He didn't even want to believe NBC's calling of the race.

Who ever wants to see an election called with 21% in?  How do they figure out that math, anyhow?

LOL

Egg in the face of the Demoncrats just like the national party knew would happen and exactly why they begged the party in Wisconsin not to go through with it.  Now the Republicans have a huge head of steam at a critical time.

I like it when bad people do stupid things 

Public Sector Unions = Worst Idea Evah

I adore this new, anti-union Valmy.

May I say as a public sector employee - I've been in a union (or, well, been in a union shop where I declined to sign a union card), and I've been in a non-union government role, and being non-union is definitely preferable.

Gotta call crap.  Back in my home region, I remember growing up, hardly a year would go by without the local Teacher's Union implying a strike at every local ballot measure to raise property taxes for education.

You also charge people trying to get their money back with extortion, so we already know what kind of fucked up priorities you have, foreign monarchist.
