They have already started their petition for his recall, and have a third of the needed votes. The Budget Bill was passed tonight w/out the needed Democrats, and Walker could sign it as early as tomorrow. It has been crazy here in Madison the last 4 weeks.... I've never seen anything like it, and it's good to see all these people come together for a cause they all believe in... although all the protesting didn't do a damn thing to sway Walker, it shows that people can still come together and protest w/out violence.

The only violence ever talked about, was Walker himself, when he was tricked into the phone conversation w/who he thought was one of the Koch brothers.... that "violent protesters should be instilled into the peaceful protesters".. his reply, "We've already thought of that".

The teachers and others being targeted agreed to all the cuts weeks ago, just asked for their bargaining rights to not be taken.... he wouldn't budge. He required all the schools to turn in their layoff notices last week... like the last thing we need is LESS teachers in the classrooms. The classrooms are already extremely overcrowded... my 5th graders class has 50 kids per classroom.. and they want to layoff more teachers?? And of course, the teacher layoffs won't affect "their" children, as all their kids go to private schools, which aren't affected by this. He exempted firefighters & police officers from the cuts, as if they were to go on strike, he "feared for public safety".... but our children not getting a proper education is OK?

Their also targeting health care w/the Budget Repair Bill... including making birth control not something that is covered by insurance companies anymore.... whether through private insurance or Badgercare. They claim that by the state helping fund birth control, it's making men and woman more promiscuous... if that isn't the dumbest thing I've ever heard People are going to have sex regardless, whether or not birth control is covered by their insurance... by cutting birth control, they will only create more unwanted and unplanned pregnancies, and instead of having to pay out $4/prescription for birth control, their going to be feeding a bunch of extra mouths through tax payers money & state funded programs. What do they think teenagers did before birth control became so readily available? They used condoms(sometimes) and hoped for the best.... do these people not think these things all the way through?

I know Walkers dad is a Minister... not sure if he's Catholic or not, although I know that's a Catholic belief w/the no birth control allowed... but why instill that belief on an entire state... and then in the next statement, say they are against abortion also?? But don't agree w/state funded "welfare" programs... which one is it? You can't have both! Sorry for the long rant, but these people just get on my last nerve w/contradicting themselves constantly.
