Recall! Get those petition signatures! Where's the indictments! This governor is not serving the public good/trust for Wisconsin.He's a troublemaker,destroying families, &he's mentally disturbed!He's obviously not n control of his decision-making process &he has a criminal mind thinking he can plant troublemakers to disrupt peaceful protests & his bat comment!He probably even thinks he's going to get away with it! There should be uprisings like this all across this country! That's what we need!

most politicians in this country are bought off by special interests. They are the same type of breed as a used car salesman.

u remember 9/11 where terrorists tried to destroy "our way of life" well walker is destroying wisconsinites way of life. mainly a bunch of white people in wisconsin--i'm surprised he hasn't met his maker yet! I guess if he did what he did in texas, he'd really get it there!

u might hate public employees but they work, ok! They'r not sitting around crunching manipulating numbers shorting stock gambling on wall st! U perceive them as having more rights/priveleges just bcause they work for gov't so u hate them; obviously u must be in sad economic state. That's why they have union-a collective voice-so workers are not trampled by the dogmatic crooks that may wealsel into state offices aka walker and his cronies!

@Norritt7167 With Murphy? He's the one who brought it up.

@noflizone Assaulting the rights of working Americans? What are you talking about? 90% of Americans ARE NOT in unions, how about THEIR rights? They're expected to keep paying outrageous and escalating taxes to pay the exorbitant benefits extorted by union bosses.

@derail14 Got caught at what? What lie did he tell? Perhaps you mean, 'our rally's twice the size of Beck's' Schultz and his long history of lies or Murphy who lied about who he was and impersonated others to entrap?

[dospesentas]

@1rendezvous #1 He DIDN'T plant troublemakers that's untrue and the bat thing was brought up by Murphy. What families has he destroyed? Mentally disturbed - criminal mind? Are you a psychologist? Get away with what? Trying to balance the budget? Making the unions do their own dues collection? Uprisings against what? Trying to balance budgets and reduce government debt? The unions were cleaning house on the taxpayers in Wisc. they need reigning in. Murphy's a liar and an impostor.

“Just as Republican governors and state legislators are assaulting the rights of working Americans under the guise of budget crises, Republican leaders in Congress are using the federal budget to further their own political agendas.”
