For the last few weeks, I have just been kind of annoyed with politics. Oh, it would just make me ill. I couldn't watch the news without feeling exasperated.
But now. Oy vey! NOW! I feel re-energized! Today is the recall election of Scott Walker ~ the Governor of Wisconsin who basically just made liberals mad. He proposed a budget that would end the collective bargaining rights for state employees. By doing so, Gov. Walker saved MILLIONS for the state. But of course the unions don't like that. Their coffers weren't getting as full under Gov. Walker. So they don't like it.
Governor Walker has been GOOD for Wisconsin. Here is an article about what has been happening in Wisconsin.
I just wanted to say that I support Governor Walker. No politician is perfect. I'm not stupid. I understand. But, we need those politicians like Governor Walker who will not be bullied. Who will do the right thing for their constituents.
I also support Governor Rick Scott in Florida who has decided that he doesn't want his state to be involved with another "hanging chads" moment in this upcoming Presidential election. He's trying to clean up the voter rolls in Florida but the Department of Justice has told them they can't do that. DUH. Eric Holder ~ state's rights much?!?!?!??! And why wouldn't the department of JUSTICE (that term is relative for that department anymore) want the election to be fair and just.
So, I support Governor Walker and I am praying for the results. And I support Governor Scott in Florida!
This is ramping up to be a very um, exciting, probably NASTY election year. I'm starting to look forward to it!
