@happystance8able you are the problem with this country. There is nothing more important to our survival as a country than education. NOTHING. Maybe if we spent more money on teachers the public would be educated enough not to vote for garbage like Scott Walker.
@happystance8able I never thought I'd see the day where Americans envied the earnings of teachers, firemen, police, and garbage collectors. If the private sector is paying such shitty wages with no benefits, why don't you get your ass in gear and form unions as well? Why are you bending over for your corporate masters and trying to make ends meet with the shit pay they give Americans these days? Wake up and smell the fascism taking over this country.
Christ, this guy describes his strategy in an off the cuff call from David Koch? The guy's from Kansas. Can I call the Wisconsin governor out of nowhere for an update on his political strategy to crash his public unions? Man, I'd love to have such access. What does it take? I'm open to suggestions. I have about 60 bucks.
Really Scott??? You 'knew' this was a prank call??? Are you stoned or just naturally stupid? Remember what happened to Louie & Marie Antoinette.... "Let them eat cake"... They were enjoying there lavish lifestyles while the country was starving,,, it ended with them parting whith everything from the neck up, Know your history or your doomed to repeat it.
David Koch is running Wisconsin and Scott Walker is his employee. This is a supervisor talking to an employee conversation. Walker is just reporting to his boss.
One of the most telling and disturbing aspects to this, is how Walker INSTANTLY begins speaking about supposedly confidential business with a private citizen, as if only reporting to his boss. This continues through the entire conversation. If one of us called Walker on the telephone, do you think he would pause for a moment to explain himself, or anything he had planned? Of course not. He is answering as a sheepish yes-man to his boss, pure and simple.
The Wisconsin Governor answering to his true master,,, not the people who elected him..but his REAL owner,, this is soo sickening it makes me PUKE! Your disgusting Gov Walker..and you game has been undressed to reveal your truth! This isnt about saving the state money- this is about imposing your political will and busting these unions up and making people lose more of what little they have to benefit your RICH owners. You sick, sick bastard!
@time4twit >>answering to his true master... not the people who elected him<<
The public sector unions were diametrically opposed to him but he won the election anyway. That means he IS answering to the people who elected him. You people are so entirely out of touch with reality, you'd be funny if you weren't so g.d. dangerous!
@dudeeful1 I'm looking around myself right now and trying to think of why I'd harbor such animosity as you have for millions of people who produced everything I can see right now that makes up my standard of living. Those people have given me so much that I am benefitting from right now as I type this to you, what kind of sick punk would think that his opinion about what they've earned for the trouble is so important that govt thugs should confiscate their property until he's satisfied?
@dudeeful1 >>if the people knew what a corporate whore he was<<
He campaigned on getting government out of the way. He won. The people think the public sector bureaucracy is too big and too powerful. The people know now what Big Government whores our teachers are and they don't like it. These are the assholes brainwashing our kids about the imperative to bring mercury-dust lightbulbs into our homes and the "evils" of people who don't get money unless it's given to them by people they've served.
@happystance8able Teachers do not make that much money. My aunt taught 7th grade for 41 years and didn't make anywhere near what the far-right is alleging. The only whores here are your mother and the republican's mothers.
@mtlaurie You sure about that? The school district where I work made the decision to post salaries online. see for yourself at pennsbury.k12.pa.us. Teachers with benefit packages around $110,000 to $133,000 are asking for a 3.5% pay increase! They're making more money per hour, with benefits, than many doctors and lawyers I know.
The governor is saying the same exact things in private as he has been screaming in public. In the end this will be gold for Republicans, a governor saying the same exact thing in confidence he's been saying on T.V.
I'll guarantee Obama/ Emanuel conversations are not nearly this pure.
So let me get this straight... A liberal blogger fraudulantly calls a sitting governor and lies pretending to be an ally in hopes of "trapping the governor". Continues for nearly twenty minutes, trying to trap the governor and the very best he can do is cry gotcha about the gov. joking about a baseball bat? How absurd. After listening to this video, I support the governor more than ever!
@wvutuber >>Continues for nearly twenty minutes, trying to trap the governor and the very best he can do is cry gotcha about the gov. joking about a baseball bat? How absurd. After listening to this video, I support the governor more than ever!<<
@happystance8able amazing how you guys can't hear anything wrong here. he's trying to bust unions, public first then private. big business don't like unions. republicans love whoring to big business, ergo unions must be destroyed, you never once asked yourself' 'why does david koch care about this bill, he doesn't even live in WI.?' i would get frustrated with you, but i'm kinda envious, ignorance is bliss. it must be nice to be so oblivious to facts.
That's a non sequitur. Dwindling enrollment in private unions proves that they bust themselves. You speak like somebody who knows nothing about the GM Jobs Bank:
Who the hell in their right mind wants their industry to head in that direction? Only people for whom the government legally steals money; only public sector unions and bailed-out businesses. WE TAXPAYERS ARE SICK OF IT!
Corruption knows no political preference. It is a sickness of the soul. When greed us motivating our leaders, and we are lead by corporate interest what choice have we but to rise. Water the tree of justice.
Wow, Walker, he heard the name David Koch and just gives up all the info! I loved how the imitator Koch says, "You're not talking to any of those Democrat Bastards". You're GOD DAMN RIGHT! Wow, Walker. I can imagine if Rupert Murdoch, Roger Ailes, or Rush Limbaugh called you'd probably start wackin' your PETER!
the koch bros inherited their money . they've sold out their country. this is nothing more than "political prostitution" for "fascist capitalism" "FACIAST CAPITALISM"= making money in any way regardless of morality or legality
Disgusting and so typical of the republican mentality.
The thing that amazes me is how they fool the little guy into voting for them...."YEAH....LET THE RICH BASTARDS PAY LESS TAXES THAN ME, THEY DESERVE IT! " A homeless vet said that.
I say lets just all go to flat tax percentage and be done with it, and pay our doctors to keep us well, and when we are sick, we dont pay a dime, bet that will avoid all those misdiagnosis's
This guy nearly broke his own arm patting his self on the back.
These public-sector pitchforks aren't aimed at the governor, folks. They're coming for you! If you're in the private sector and you pay taxes, they want more of what you have. It just looks like they're going after the governor but that's because he's the only thing standing in the way between you and the pitchforks. These are people who aren't used to hearing the word "No". Just look at their retirement plans and health coverage. Chances are, it's better than what you're getting...
The reason for the protests is Walker wants to take away the right to collective bargaining. The state employees have already agreed to pay more for their benefits. So why do you say public employees "want more" when they have agreed to take less?
@happystance8able My pitchfork isn't aimed at you, matter of fact, I'm not even holding one. In fact, I'm your neighbor, and a fellow taxpayer. I don't wan't what you have, I wan't to keep what I have. My dad is a firefighter, and if your telling me that he shouldn't have the best retirement plan and healthcare your an unappreciative citizen. But don't worry, he'll still save your life when the time comes. Unions keep the american dream alive, they keep the middle class growing.
@jetkjh >>My pitchfork isn't aimed at you, matter of fact, I'm not even holding one<<
That's awfully big of you. How long's that gonna last? Until I refuse to hand over to you what I've earned? Oh no! That's right; The messy part's been assigned to the administrators of the police state but...of course... there's your problem because that's the governor's office. Better go get your pitchfork, dumbass. Looks like that's the only way your gonna get from me what you want...
I like the Ratio he says people are behind him. Last I heard 2/3 is bigger than 1/3. Dork learn Math. He said Obama should keep his nose out of Wisconsin. DUH it is the country that he is in charge of. This is our Governor.
He cuts on a Democratic senator who was on his side on a few issues that went to the private sector and got a taste of real money then came back to politics "only" because of a sense of duty to his Constituents. (WHAT OTHER REASON IS THERE?) All of the protesters still down there are from other states.(?) He even says 2/3's of everyone down there is against him but all of them down there are only there because they have cushy union jobs. You just cut on your 1/3 that were on your side.
AMAZING!!!!! THESE REPUBLICANS R NOT HUMAN! Planting people to cause trouble? These are the kinds of things said in movies! This is unreal! If you are a republican and really believe in God you have to be disgusted by this! Too much ego and no empathy! How they call themselves Christians is beyond me!
@happystance8able you are the problem with this country. There is nothing more important to our survival as a country than education. NOTHING. Maybe if we spent more money on teachers the public would be educated enough not to vote for garbage like Scott Walker.
