It's good to hear from a democrat who believes in respect for the constitution, and the rule of law.
I live in Minnesota, where the Democrat-party secretary of state certified comedian Al Franken as our newest Senator by allowing voter fraud for partisan political gain. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123111967642552909.html http://www.usnews.com/opinion/blogs/peter-roff/2010/07/20/Al-Franken-May-Have-Won-His-Senate-Seat-Through-Voter-Fraud http://minnesota.publicradio.org/features/2008/11/19_challenged_ballots/
I agree with FDR, that collective bargaining has no place in public sector unions, and that "militant tactics have no place in the functions of any organization of Government employees"
See: http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/?pid=15445
That's why I approve of the recent action by Wisconsin lawmakers, to curtail these practices. Why should public-sector union members be exempt from the "shared sacrifice" that everyone else has been making?
If this effort fails, our state governments will eventually become insolvent. The taxpayers can simply no longer afford to give grant these "cadillac" benefit plans to public sector employees.
I have contempt for the absentee Democrats, who fled to Illinois for three weeks to avoid taking a vote on this bill. By so doing, they robbed their constituents of representation in the Wisconsin legislature. These are the people who threw away freedom -- and for nothing more than partisan political points.
Democracy, not lawlessness
