Day By Day February 20, 2011 – Disappear
The Wisconsin Democrat State Senators who ran away from their constitutional oath last week should be ashamed of themselves and Wisconsin voters WILL punish them at their next election. In the meantime, state business/legislation languished while this game of chicken plays itself out.
Will there be a compromise?With Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker maintaining a hard line on his budget bill and Democratic senators refusing to return to Madison to vote, attention is turning to a group of moderate Republican senators to negotiate a compromise to the stalemate that has drawn thousands of protesters to the state capital for a sixth straight day.
The proposal, written by Sen. Dale Schultz and first floated in the Republican caucus early last week, calls for most collective bargaining rights of public-employee unions to be eliminated—per Mr. Walker’s bill—but then reinstated in 2013, said Mr. Schultz’s chief of staff Todd Allbaugh.
“Dale is committed to find a way to preserve collective bargaining in the future,” said Mr. Allbaugh in a telephone interview.
On Sunday, Mr. Walker reiterated his confidence that Republicans would pass their proposal intact.
I doubt it because this is “PUBLIC” employment not private and many states do not have collective bargaining for public/government workers. There is no guarantee for the unions here and remember –

Updated: Video: Wisconsin Physicians Distribute Fraudulent Sick Notes to Protesting Public Employees
As tens of thousands of public employees skipped work this week to attend protest rallies outside the Wisconsin State Capitol, many wondered if they would face any disciplinary action for unexcused absences.
On Saturday, a group of men and women in lab coats purporting to be doctors were handing out medical excuse notes, without examining the ‘patients.’
Pretty disgusting and I trust the Wisconsin Medical Board might want to do a little investigation here.
Update:
In this next video this purported physician has had enough of being accused of fraudulent activity. Get a good look Wisconsin Medical Board. I smell a disciplinary hearing here.

Stand with Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker – Sign the Petition
Stand with Scott Walker.Read the petition:
Help send the following message to the Wisconsin Senate and to Governor Scott Walker:
Union dues should be voluntary, and the state should not be in the business of collecting them. Union certification should require a secret ballot. Collective bargaining should not be used to force extravagant pension and health benefits that cripple state budgets.
These common-sense reforms have made the union bosses desperate to disrupt Wisconsin government and overturn an election. They must not be allowed to succeed. In fact, every state should adopt Governor Scott Walker’s common sense reforms.
Go here and sign the petition.
Then share this with your friends and colleagues.
