June 5, 2012 - PPM - Selective Recall

I waited a day to post this week's PET PEEVE MONDAY (PPM).

Scott Walker was the duly elected the Governor of Wisconsin in 2010. While campaigning, Walker said he would get the largess of the public sector costs under control. Public sector employees were overpaid in salaries and under contributing in pensions and for healthcare. Once elected, he acted on his campaign promises.

Backed financially by the forced union dues, a "Recall" campaign was launched.

Here is my PEEVE. Recalls should be the result of office malfeasance or crimes.

This was a difference in ideology.

This was a TOTAL MISUSE of the recall process.

The Unions lost at the ballot box in 2010. A side effect of the Walker reforms made mandatory Union Dues a thing of the past. Now the Unions have lost memberships as their true colors have been exposed. The salaries of their leaders and the exposure of their tactics have seen the light of day.



The voters have spoken and have been heard ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

Governor Walker won in a landslide.

The huge upside of the Walker victory is that Unions wasted millions on an attempt to vote out a successful governor, so they can't spend it trying to keep a failed president.
