Via ABC News:
“The President was quicker and more forceful of his denouncement of Gov. Scott Walker than he was of denouncing Hosni Mubarak,” [ABC Senior Political Correspondent Jon] Karl said. “Madison, Wisconsin – the state of Wisconsin — this is arguably ground zero for the 2012 presidential campaign. Look, this is a state if President Obama loses, he’s almost certainly going to not win re-election,” Karl explained.

Obama and his kind have supported ‘money for nothing’ to help create this kind of state financial mess. And of couse he comes down hard and fast on Walker. He’s trying to pay back the unions and protect the 27 million dollar campaign contribution he wants again. He’s abusive to Americans, like an alcoholic or drug addict is abusive to a family – those who depend on Obama will be his easiest target and the first ones hurt! Vote – every chance you get!

Posted on February 20, 2011 at 6:42pm@DCWU Is there a way “WE THE PEOPLE” can impeach the bastard? Just wondering why WE cannot impeach him on whatever charges….. I use that term (bastard) as he is the illegitimate son of an unmarried mother. For any leftists out there who are going to get themselves all stirred up over that fact and my daring to call him what he is, read my lips: I, too, am a bastard-ette child. Born to an unwed mother and later adopted by GOD-fearing, GOD-loving, GOD-serving parents. It chills my blood to think that I could have been born to bhos’ mother….. Anyway, there are “oopses” and there are OOPSES.(That’s those of us conceived out of wedlock). We are all GOD’s children. We are allowed to choose whom or WHOM we will follow in this lifetime and forever. By the Grace of GOD, HE has chosen me, and I have chosen HIM. bhos made the wrong choice. And, because he pretends to be other than he is, legally born and honestly schooled, natural born U.S. citizen, he should be IMPEACHED NOW! Well, “yesterday” would have been better than today, but IMPEACHED nonetheless.
Aren’t there millions of lawyers out there who would donate all their time and expenses to see that this impostor is IMPEACHED????

Posted on February 21, 2011 at 6:19amMill….Respectfully, I wish you and others would stop using the term ‘Democracy”. The US is a Constitution Rebublic, not a democracy, which is majority-rule.
Report Post »We are represented by democratically (majority) elected representatives, yes, but democracy is what you are seeing in Wisconsin. It leads to ‘mobocracy’ (mob rule), and yes. that is an actual term.
You see, the founders created the ‘Electoral College’ to actually elect the president. It is a check on mob rule. Example: How about we had a close election, but in one state, an organized group submitted thousands of illegal ballots for purposes of swaying that states numbers. It could actually change the outcome of the national election. When we hear the term ‘checks and balances’, that is an example. Each states ‘electors’ are equal to the total number of senators and representatives in that state, and do not ‘have’ to vote for the candidate who gets the most popular votes, though they usually do.

Over the last twelve years we have had 2 %10 pay cuts(lasting 1 year each), had our pension rates lowered (37years for %60) and I give $6000 per year towards it. Have to be 62 to collect your pension. Had 7 cola’s in 12 years (%2 each) gave up 5 colas. Been made to pay $6230 per year for family health care(3 people) used to be $0 – 15 years ago. And this year 13 furlough days, report to work and not get paid for it. My point is, we have not fought these things because we know how bad times are. NOT ALL UNIONS ARE BAD.

Posted on February 20, 2011 at 3:21pm@60yrold I think you are exactly right, The way I see it is he is working on budget AND if he can get them to pay dues directly and see how little they are getting and it is a seperate payment, a lot of people will back out of paying and the smaller the hold the UNIONS have and getting less money means, less power and money for Obama come election time.If this happens there where Obama carried last time and puts that in jeopardy and it moves from state to state like this the more likely we are to get a Republican President elected. So I see this as a win win all the way around. Especally since we don’t want unions anyway Gov Walker said he got 19,000 emails Friday telling him he was doing the right thing.

Doesn’t anybody remember all the media talking about Obama needing to take office right after the elections so that he could deal with the Financial Crisis before Bush could do anything about it?
I personally believe that George Schwartz/Soros had a hand in the Sept crisis so that it would guarantee Obama’s win because the McCain/Palin ticket was starting to gain ground with the voters, even with the Couric interview, Palin’s status with the Women in the independent and conservative movements was not something that they had counted on. And so a financial crisis was in order to create a crisis mentality. Democrats can only function in a crisis so if no crisis is naturally occurring they make one up. The next crisis will be an electoral crisis and maybe this election cycle so Schwartz/Soros can get his way with the Country’s dollar, he is shorting it and he is now out trying to tank the dollar by appearing on CNN to talk about the Dear Leader’s handling of the Country.

How could we hire a community organizer over a leader??
The progressives have for a long time now have been literally reorganizing this country. They are into everything and their movement is strong. But to answer your question: We taught people to. We took God out of the schools; We went emotional touchy feely instead of being steadfast and straight; We gave the power of our kids to the schools which in time through progressive thinking and implementation of teachings, the slow transformation of such has brought us to this generation that where todays kids graduating from high school are twice as smart and savvy than in the 80‘s or 90’s – but there is no substance in them, no desire, no site of future.
We did this by not paying attention to the subtile changes these last 40 or 50 years in the schools. Now we have 2 generations of kids wanting to do the best they can but have no roots, no practicalism. And the real sad thing is, this disaster was voted in as our commander and chief by the out-croping of the schools. The young adults have no where to turn. And now, they have been rewarded by barry selling their lives to a captivity that will not in any means resemble the freedoms and the liberties we remember.
When you listen to barrys community service rants, he does’t talk to you or me, he talks to the kids. barry is a traitor,and he with all his comrades should be tried as such.

“The courts didn’t go far enough with respect to redistributive change.”…while speaking of civil-rights legislation. This was a divisive statement. It was intended to strengthen blacks feelings that they are owed something, and is further evidence of his community organizing past.

Posted on February 20, 2011 at 3:16pmObama once again shows himself to be on the side of BIG goverment and who he really supports. Public empoyees should have two major things happen. One is most of them should be discontinued off of goverment payroles. Thus reducing the role of goverment in our socity and our lives. Second, all, and I mean ALL public employee unions shoudl be done away with. The Democrats that have refused to show up for work in WI, should be warned that they have to show up and cast their votes and do their jobs, or go to jail. This should no longer be tolerated. The teachers that were not sick and went to the protests, especially those who brought along the students, should be fired and be done with them. If I didn’t show up to work and called in sick to protest what my empolyer is about to do that I might disagree with. I would be fired without warning. I have a great boss and I like him very much, but the pay is not great and nor are some of the working conditions. However, if I want to work then I have to accept the conditions of employment or refuse the job. I work in the private sector. These public employees because of the unions have been pamper and catered too WAY TOO MUCH!! For them to say, we are hurting and they are making sacrifces and how the goverment is treating them so unfairly and so on and so on….. Makes me so sick!!!! I have no sympathy for them what so ever!! It is about time that those who want tot work for the goverment struggle and have to tow the line like the rest of us or even more so because they work for us!!! What is good for us should be good for them. I say enough is enough, and I hope that the Gov of WI stands firm and does not give in! This is so far more important to the nation and the future of every state in these United States than just WI. If the liberals want everyone to be equal then make a public employee equal to the same wages and benifits offered to the same position in the private sector. If they proposed that, then you have seen any thing yet as way of protests. These teachers will be out for blood. The sad thing is if the Gov gets this bill pasted then these public employees would still be far better off than people in the private sector. That is the shame of all this!!!!

Posted on February 20, 2011 at 3:50pmThe “deal” offered by Gov. Walker would eliminate the current furlough days for the public employees thus resulting in an increase in wages, and would keep the Gov. from laying of approx. 5500 employees. Meaning the public employees would have to kick in a little for their pensions and healthcare rather than see their fellow employees laid off. Knowing how greedy these union members are, they will sacrifice their fellow employees for their own gain. Way to be real team members and caring for each other and each others families. This entitlement society, which has been born and fostered in the public schools by these liberal progressive teachers, has been the erosion of this society.

Actually the reason is because the impeachment process wouldn’t get anywhere, the dem‘s won’t allow Obama to be impeached no matter how much damage he does and Herry Reid will most diff no allow it to get anywhere.
There’s also the worry in some communitues that if we attempt to impeach Obama, a potential race war might occur (Blacks vs Whites) as stupid as that might sound to some of you, it‘s a possibility that can’t be ignored.
And, regardless of all of this, trying to impeach may have the same results as when we tried to impeach Clinton. Yea, Clinton was impeached, but he still served as our president (made no sense) becuase it was a tie vote and the VP had to vote on it and naturally he wasn’t going to vote against his own boss.

Last week I was proud when many of my current and former teammates announced their support for the working families fighting for their rights in Wisconsin. Today I am honored to join with them. Thousands of dedicated Wisconsin public workers provide vital services for Wisconsin citizens. They are the teachers, nurses and child care workers who take care of us and our families. These hard working people are under an unprecedented attack to take away their basic rights to have a voice and collectively bargain at work.
It is an honor for me to play for the Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers and be a part of the Green Bay and Wisconsin communities. I am also honored as a member of the NFL Players Association to stand together with working families of Wisconsin and organized labor in their fight against this attempt to hurt them by targeting unions. I hope those leading the attack will sit down with Wisconsin’s public workers and discuss the problems Wisconsin faces, so that together they can truly move Wisconsin forward.

So, why aren’t we impeaching him?
It takes a two/thirds majority in the Senate.
From the U.S. Constitution:
“The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.”
The House has the responsibility of drawing up articles for impeachment, which are the charges. The Senate tries the impeachment case and reaches the decision of conviction or acquittal.
Bill Clinton was impeached by the House but was acquitted by the Senate. His acquittal is what kept him in office as President.

Why don’t the public employee unions want to “give up” collective bargaining ?? With collective bargaining an un-elected third party can tell the taxpayer what they will pay THEIR EMPLOYEES. We the taxpayers on the other hand would rather have OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS be the ones to do all of the bargaining…….from start to finish. If we don’t like what the people we have elected have done during contract negotiations we can FIRE THEM at the next election. With un-elected arbitrators we have no say. If the unions got a raw deal from arbitrators and collective bargaining you would not see the level of anger that you see now. The days of organizing to protect yourself from the taxpayer are OVER.

Every day we find out more about this guy, who he is, what he represents and his feeling of this countries direction. It will be hard in 2012 for him to hide behind his words and actions. There will be no ‘present’ voting history this time around.

Posted on February 21, 2011 at 3:08pmLet’s break it down. Wisconsin gets over $10,000 per child for education. 23 kids in each class equals $230,000. Teachers get $50,000+- which leaves $180,000. Let’s say they rent on the room is $1,000/mo = $12,000 year which leaves $168,000. Where is the rest of the money going? We should pay these teachers $75,000/year and let them pay for their own benefits and get rid of the “big brother” education system and let the decisions be made on the local level. We should also look at the outlay of welfare…how much do we spend in total divided by the number of welfare recipients…I’ll bet the numbers are staggering.
