No more hiding the ball Tommie boy. And try to explain away all the savings that resulted because you implemented the budget repair act in Milwaukee. Slogans and rhetoric aren't going to carry the day any more nor will being a union lacky.

Well, no. Walker's plan is working. People are getting ahead, contrary to what the unions say, employers are hiring, houses are beginning to sell, and schools are operating in the black. Why should we hire Barrett and stop all of this?

@Don, I do not understand why you expect the "poor" to pay less tax? Why don't they have some skin in the game? It seems that since 49% of folks don't pay any income tax it is they who are not paying their fair share. I understand that the "poor" don't have much but they should give something in order to keep them vested in watching the waste that is our goverment. If they pay nothing what do they care if they witness waste? Why would they be outraged. On the other hand how much more do you expect to squeeze out of the "rich"?....@RonE, If someone is making $250k I would hope that they would save more than the average family making $60k. As a percentage however those makeing $250k are getting the shaft. Why are you promoting class warfare? The flat tax is the only fair tax. We need to encourage economic success not punish it.

There is only a month to the election. Is he prepared or not?

I completely agree.

RonE, Are you kidding us? Walker has not given any taxbreaks to the wealthy. He has only "stuck it to" public employee unions, not the middle class. In Paul Ryan's budget the reason the average family would get about $600 in tax tavings while those over $250k would save thousands is that the average family doesn't pay thousands. In fact they typically pay no federal income tax. GET YOUR FACTS CORRECT.

Because he said what his plans where in public.

No, Louis, he was being recalled by the sheeple because that is what the union told them to do. Can you say baaaaaaahhhhh.
Posted by: Don on May 10, 2012 at 02:10 PM

No "B". It's the Republican's that want to tax the poor to pay for tax breaks for the wealthy and corporate welfare.

He has one. No reason to tip our hand to the enemy. He will reveal it to the voting public in due time. At least with Tom we won't be in for any surprises!

Good!

He was nominated on tuesday today is thursday. I think he can have a few days.

You continue to make my point that you are not for real. If you wanted Falk then surely you would rather have Barrett than Walker.

To Don, What about the voters? Don't they deserve an answer from him? I haven't heard from any democrat, how they would fix things. I guess, they don't have any answers to that one! Voting for Walker!
Posted by: RonE on May 10, 2012 at 01:49 PM

@B, Are you kidding me, who gives tax breaks to the wealthy and sticks it to the middle class, that's not the Democrats my friend. In Paul Ryan's budget the average family would get about $600 in tax savings while those over $250,000 would save thousands. Your fact is not correct.
