Lefties aren't very strong on logic. If Walker knew this Koch guy so well, as they're trying to claim, he would have recognized the other voice on the phone wasn't Koch's. So, EPIC FAIL there, and yes... Walker is reiterating the same thing he's said in public: Wisconsin has a $3.6 billion budget deficit; they simply have NOTHING with which to bargain. Municipalities/school districts are broke; they also have NOTHING with which to bargain.

Walker's trying to free the state, municipalities, and school districts from the noose of exorbitant public employee union demands. Or do you like it when your property taxes, etc., double or more? Hmmm... I've not seen a single lefty/lib clamor to have their property taxes raised higher and higher. Why not? Why don't they support the poor public employee unions? Pay more taxes NOW, slaves! The unions DEMAND it!

And the bit about the bat? Everyone already knows about the physical threat issued by the Dems/unions:
Democrat urges unions to 'get a little bloody when necessary' - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room

Who can blame Walker for considering self-defense?

What exactly is the story here? This loser lied and came away with nothing. Walker said nothing that hasn't been said publicly. You pathetic liberals can't debate using facts so you resort to this crap, which fails anyways

The man wants to be KING of AMERICA and the Merchant Princes are backing him with millions.

We all need to form a UNION against this aristocratic bullies by taking control of the Democratic Party back from the financiers.

Koch owns him and so many other Teabagger politicians.

Good grief... have you lefties/libs no shame? It's already clear you posses no logic.

I still see no one volunteering to have their property taxes double or more to pay the public employee unions whatever they want. Anyone? ...Bueller? ...Bueller?

As punks go, the interview is a bit of a yawner.

The Governor says nothing incriminating in it.

Well...the unions agreed to take the financial concessions demanded by the governor to meet the budget crisis. What kind of logic are you offering that explains why he's still trying to gut collective bargaining, other than union busting for ideological and political purposes?

Logic is good. Blind ideology rarely works.

Didn't you just post this on another thread? According to one of your RW buds, that's against the TOS.

Or are you too lazy to want to take responsibility for yourself but want to hide behind the skirts of a union?
Wake up!

Unions; the voice of the mediocre and dull.

For something that supposedly means nothing, there certainly seems to be a lot of rationalizing and salvage spin going around. Bottom line is, when there is verbal acknowledgment of plots against people, in this case union taxpayers, it becomes pretty embarrassing. The exposure necessitates the spin.
