Governor Scott Walker Wins - Big Government-Unions Lose


SCOTT WALKER REMAINS THE GOVERNOR OF WISCONSIN in recall election!
Much to the relief of Wisconsin citizens who have fought so long to attain the right guaranteed by the Second Amendment to “keep and bear arms”; as well as the fight against unions involved in government affairs, civil employment, that has caused an increase in state (and federal) expenditures (tax dollars) in the cost of government personnel employment. Now, those employed by our state government will pay into their own retirement like the rest of the working class; and yet have more benefits than those taxpayers who are paying toward their salaries and wages – which is higher than the state's average rate for those employed in the private sector.

Wisconsin Recall: America is Watching

It must be known to readers by now the request for recall of Governor Scott Walker, Wisconsin has passed the required votes and a recall election is scheduled for June 5th, 2012. The recall is based upon the views and complaints of union members that work for the Wisconsin state government, to include the teachers' union. It is the public employee and teachers' union that has been instrumental in escalating the matter this far, and is now under national scrutiny, because, if Governor Walker IS recalled, it will show the strength and force that unions have over labor in the private sector as well as the government employment sector. This boils down to the constitutionality of government employees being allowed to have private sector-controlled union entities that meld special interest into the mechanics of government operation and drain the treasuries of government paid for By the People.

Statistical Proof America Is Worse Off Two Years After Obama's Election

Unfortunately, I do not know who created this statistical chart because it was sent to me in a forwarded email. However, remarks which accompanied the chart are reproduced below. There is an unnerving trend here. 

I say, why wait for the 2012 election? If Obama's policies are undermining the nation, do we have to sit back and take it like masochists, or can we start some grassroots conversations about impeachment for incompetence? Too bad recall elections don't happen at the federal level.  Hat tip to Helen in Kansas for sending the chart.



























Just take this last item:  In the last two years we have accumulated national debt at a rate more than 27 times as fast as during the rest of our entire nation's history.  Over 27 times as fast.  Metaphorically speaking, if you are driving in the right lane doing 65 MPH and a car rockets past you in the left lane. 27 times faster, it would be doing  7,555 MPH!

Recall Initiative in New Jersey Against Robert Menendez (D) - A Model For Other States?

Senator's recall sought for backing healthcare plan
Daily Nation
Trenton, NJ

New Jersey voters should be allowed to decide whether to seek removal of Democratic US Senator Robert Menendez from office because of his support for national healthcare reform and other measures, a recall group argued in court yesterday.
The recall group, which emerged from a local branch of the conservative Tea Party movement, appeared before the New Jersey state Supreme Court to argue that the state constitution allows for senators to be removed from office if they violate that constitution.
