In regards to the “Thumbs Down” article that recently appeared in another local publication, rest assured there’s plenty of work being done to recall Gov. Scott Walker, and it’s not all behind the scenes.

As far as being “one issue wonders,” collective bargaining is one issue, but the hits to MediCare and BadgerCare are another, along with the hits to the poor and middle class that the Walker regime wants. Helping the rich and big business with big tax breaks is another.

Don’t forget that the first recall petitions were filed by Walker supporters, trying to make Democratic senators pay for leaving the state to slow Walker and the other Republicans down so the people could have a say in what they were trying to push through. We didn’t start this fight, but you better believe we’ll win it. The unions tried working with Walker, but he turned his back on them.

I remember years ago Richard Moore, a columnist for that other local publication, coming to one of our union meetings as a Democrat running for office, looking for union support. Now all he does is write columns that are anti-union. He must have been a fake Democrat.

Get ready Walker-the recall is coming. Let’s get rid of these back door politicians.
