  1. Has anyone complied a list of all the new (and old bills )passed by the Republicans that are detrimental to the people of WI. ?

    The list would include a short reason WHY this new laws are not benefiting the people.

    I think it would be useful and we go around and collect signatures for the recall.

    Any help with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    1. Best bet may be to contact staff of a state sen. like Larson. Willing to bet they’d be more than happy to give you such a list and could rattle it off the top of their heads.

      Please share if you succeed, because that’s a good idea.

  2. Agree that we need to have the list ready, because while some people are squeamish on the recall concept, they know what Walker and the WisGOPs has done is destructive and a failure. So just remind people of that.

    How about replacing public servants with appointed hacks who aren’t beholden to the public?

    How about mentioning that Wisconsin 49th in job creation since Walker’s budget went into effect?

    How about mentioning that your local services have been cut in quality and quantity, with no change in your taxes to show for it. (and there won’t be)

    How about the fact that we went from a national leader in worker rights, clean government, and covering our sick and poor to a national laughingstock of corruption with massive cuts in medical aid and the second-class treatment of hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites and their families.

    There are scores more, it’s just a matter of narrowing down the long train of abuses into an easy package.

    There are scores more to choose from

  3. So, Mrs. Bachmann, you would ban citizenship to babies born to illegal immigrants. You further state that it is not a constitutional question and can be dealt with legislatively. Why wait until you’re President, Mrs. Bachmann, just introduce legislation tomorrow? You know, in your current job? You know how to do that, right? What? You haven’t introduced a single piece of legislation this term? Mrs. Bachmann, do you even know what your current job even is?

    Upon review, I was amused to find that Mrs. Bachmann introduced H.R. 3130: Hearbeat Informed Consent Act, which aims “To ensure that women seeking an abortion receive an ultrasound and an opportunity to review the ultrasound before giving informed consent to receive an abortion.” Obviously the only place the Federal Government needs to be in a female’s uterus. Let me know how that turns out.

    1. If Mississippi passes their ‘fertilized egg’ is a person law, then we can’t deport anyone who gets pregnant here ’cause they are carrying/harbouring an American citizen…

  4. Great news. REpugTeaParty Sen. Terry Mouton WILL BE RECALLED.
    We will collect signatures starting Nov 15.
