B-b-b-b-but I thought she was only about the unions! Oops, another lie from the right. I just wish more on the left would see it for what it is and see Falk for who she is.

"But its for the children" I think everybody is on to that line. Especially after seeing the teachers in madison skip work to protest their loss of bargaining rights.
ReplyDeleteShe should have told her Chicago investors that the unions have worn out that excuse north of the border.
When I saw those teachers in Madison, I was very proud of them for standing up for the children of the state. I still think we all owe them one. Good job, Wisconsin teachers.
DeleteLet's remember too that many teachers were protesting in Green Bay, Eau Claire and other areas as well. They also attended candle light vigils after working hours, not everyone showed up in Madison.
Deletedo you think those teachers wanted to miss work that day ?don't you think they would have preferred to have been with the children that day ? well,maybe not your kids.
DeleteScreamingeagle- Let me get this straight, the teachers don't want to be with children of a conservative thinker? Assuming you speak for the teachers of course. At what point did the unions start running the school districts and the government stopped? Well, looking back it seems like time wasted at the capital. No matter what happens in June, I think collective bargaining is a thing of the past.
DeleteYou're not a student of history are you?
DeleteI know your to busy to teach me, so give me a link. I want to understand. I will give your readers this, they are passionate. Their bias is easy to see, but its harder to see is how they justify that bias. They help me justify my own bias.
DeleteI'm merely pointing out that collective bargaining is really rather important to people, to the point where they're willing to die for the rights that come with it. http://cognidissidence.blogspot.com/2011/02/todays-history-lesson.html
DeleteIt answers my question as to when the unions started running government. Right around 1886. Looks like the taxpayers might have made a statement in 2011. It will be interesting to see how the story gets told to the next generation.
Delete1886? The year of the Bay View Massacre? Yeh, unions really won that round. Not.
DeleteJeesh, really, you continue to reveal yourself as embarrassingly uninformed, racist. Stop typing and start reading.
I assume you are speaking for yourself, Mr. self identified Imustbearacist. The citizens I know see and feel the setbacks from the denied public education funding and reallocated funding to profit charter schools daily.
ReplyDeleteLooks like we are going to find out soon enough, who agrees and who doesnt.
DeleteYes, but no matter what, our Wisconsin teachers are the greatest and deserve our respect. This thing of putting down the people who work for us, police, firefighters, teachers, city workers, bus drivers, has to stop. They are the ones we rely to care for our kids, to plow the streets, to pick up the garbage, run the landfills, etc., etc. We need them and should be appreciative. Fiscal reform is fine, cut out fraud, but not just as a means of punishing those who don't contribute to your campaign or who disagree with you politically.
DeleteThis is how "It's Working" in Racine...

We need education and we need good teachers. Who knows how much damage Gov. Walker has done to our state already with his anti-education push?
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that my youngest is graduating from college this May -- and leaving the state, like my oldest, to be a teacher elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteThis is the only state with a high school graduation rate above 90 percent. Thank you, K12 teachers.
That rate will drop now, I suppose, with fewer teachers and larger classes -- but perhaps it's just as well, because wait 'til you see what awaits them in the UW: Even fewer faculty, even larger classes than before, because bad as the budget cuts have been at the K12 level, the budget cuts to the UW System have been much worse -- and after years and years of cuts at the UW level, to the point that taxes account for only 11 percent of their operating budget. At least the K12s are only beginning to feel the pain.
So if you have kids in K12, start saving now to send them to private colleges.
