1. Gawd, I hope this happens.

"There are Republican senators today that will lose their seats in a recall election in the next few months," he said "We're happy to assist."

Asked if Wisconsin Dems would drop their push to recall senators if they abandoned the drive to roll back public employee bargaining rights. Tate said he couldn't guarantee that, arguing that Walker's proposed budget cuts yesterday took this fight to a whole new level.

"In the past 24 hours, this has gotten so much larger than the rights of our public employees," he said. "This is much larger now than it was a week ago."

5. The bargaining rights issue has become a massive misdirection to

distract people from the rest of the crap in that 144 page so-called budget repair bill. And let's be realistic here. Scott Walker(R-Kochwhore)is an uneducated, dimwit who most likely has never even read a 144 page document, let alone written one. The Wisconsin 14 should stay away until the recall succeeds in ridding the Senate of a few Republicans. Then they can come back and legislate a repair bill that doesn't enrich the Koch brothers at the expense of the people of Wisconsin. If you would like to send a note of thanks to the Wisconsin 14, here's the perfect place to do it. http://www.wisdems.org/SupportTheWisconsin14

6. Someone in this forum has suggested a good way of overcoming

the super-rich's power. Hit them where it hurts them the most -- MONEY!
Make them PAY! Cut off all the tax loopholes. Make them pay their taxes,
instead of giving them tax-cuts. This is insane! They only use their
ill-gotten gains to buy and bribe their way into screwing off more from the
American people.

And it isn't even necessary to make the super-rich pay 90% tax after
their income has gone beyond a certain level, as it happened under FDR.
(Joe Louis was in that bracket). Make them pay their fair share according
to the present-day law!

12. Scott Walker is a "Bomb Thrower". You are right in that the issue is Koch

gains. Walker has thrown the people of WI under the Koch Bus for fracking, extractions, polluters while distracting the public with "crazy bombs". That is why he was made to win.
Correct your elections before it is too late. Paper ballots.

8. Sure hope the Dems. will make the best of the situation this time. It's high time!

[Cal33]

9. Sure hope the Dems will succeed.

2. It would be a big win for Unions in this country if a recall happens.

[Cal33]

11. It would be a big win for all Democrats, and some other states might follow suit.

3. Recalled now? FANTASTIC!!!

Too bad muammar walker has more time.

[Cal33]

15. The WI Dem. Party is trying to get enough citizens to ask for the recall.

It'll take some time.

4. Let's make some history, Democrats

Let's send a message to future Repukes who think they can crown themselves emperor and do whatever the fuck they want.

7. This would be awesome

I reminds me of the ol' pull the Rug out from under the Republican trick! Let the idiots fall where they may!

13. It would be awesome if we could recall Walker and get him out of office mid2012

I hope opposition to Walker remains high enough for us to recall him and take him out of office in 2012, that would be good payback, and a lesson for other right wing nut jobs elsewhere in the country.

14. Yes, wouldn't it be great if Democrats in other states followed

their example?

[B Calm]

16. They should start the process immediately!

[Cal33]

17. Wisconsin Dems. already have started the process, by trying to collect

enough signatures. This takes time. I read that when they do have enough
signatures, the recall process can begin within 6 weeks.

Meanwhile, the Repubs. have also started recall processes against 5 Dem.
state senators.

Repubs. seem to be quick on tit for tat. Dems. aren't that quick.
