Seriously, I don't understand: you say the people of Wisconsin are tired of being taxed, yet you support taking 8% income away from low- middle- income "common guy" public employees, while giving even more tax cuts to corporations? Why? You say, "Enough is enough we as citizens of WI are done with increases" - but you are supporting a huge increase on average citizens?

No thanks. I've seen plenty of the "professional representatives" in Wisconsin, like the lying, ethics-challenged, lawbreaking Governor Walker

You never cease to amaze me you bash walker and the republicans but won't listen to the idiots that you are supporting.


Can you explain to me how as a citizen of the US you are ok with the action taken by the senate democrats? I am not asking whether you agree or disagree with the bill. I am asking if you believe that their actions are in accordance to the civic duty that they swore to uphold

The Governor tried to sneak through alot of nasty stuff in his bill. I'm darn glad the Democrats held up the rushed-through passage of this bill, because much of the content has turned out to have zero to do with solving any budget deficit. Yes, I think that is indeed their civic duty, to protect their constituency.

How can you support Walker? His lying, his deceit? Tell me how taking away 8% of income from low and middle class public workers is a good thing for the overburdened, overtaxed citizens of Wisconsin? While companies get more and more tax breaks?

As I said, your Governor has promised that 250,000 jobs will magically appear out of nowhere in Wisconsin in the next couple of years. If he can do that, I'll be happy to vote for him for President.

This to me says a lot about you and your beliefs. Whether you agree or disagree with the bill acting the way the democrats have done is just down right wrong. If the republicans give in it sets a really bad precedent. It is like when I tell my 3 yr old she can't have candy and then she throws a temper tantrum and I give in. Do you think she will do it again? We can not have law makers acting in this behavior any time a bill is presented that they do not agree with. That is what elections are for. Time to get back to work and do your job.

Can you talk about politics objectively?

I say what they did was right. They used a legal parlimentary procedure to block the ramming through of a "deficit repair" bill (even though the Wisconsin deficit isn't deep enough to formally trigger the need for a "repair bill") that contains far, far more than just deficit corrections.

Guess we'll just disagree.

I missed your daily anger and self-rightous indignation over the past two years of Senate Republicans filibustering just about everything

did you seriously just ask that question??? riot, you have unabashedly and unashamedly admitted your love for the democratic party; that you think they're the cure for what ails us as a country...you back their play on any and every issue that comes down the pike --and then you post that.

So you consider filibustering the same as the actions the Senate Democrats in WI have taken? Fleeing the state, not showing up for your job, and not representing your constituents is the same as a filibuster? So every time a party disagrees with another they should just flee to Canada or in this case IL until the other party gives in? They should hold the state or the country hostage and not allow business to be conducted until they get their way. I do not see how that is considered democracy, but what do I know I didn't consult twitter or wikipedia
