A yard sign for the times and more...

I have seen this a few times in the past but what I saw yesterday was even better, I saw a bill board on my way toward Madison with this exact same thing written on it
A large rented Bill board on the Interstate.
Very funny.
I don’t know if you listened to the radio this morning but it’s now Not Cool to Vote for Obama either.
He’s Uncool now. I know it sounds silly but they said many college students voted for him in 2008 cause he was cool and cause they wanted to make history voting for the 1st Black president.
Well now he’s not cool with them and many Democrats.
Too bad it took all of this to wake them up and realize their mistake not to mention the fact that he will make history, as the worst president we have ever had.
I don’t think that’s exactly what they had in mind for history making.

I have not been listening toy the news lately , But I have been noticing a little swing
towards Republicans side of things ! What happened ? Is it good enough to gloat
with all my friends ?

Better caption ( Mission Accomplished ) !!!!

So, your cousin is a union thug? One of the union thugs that Walker gave a
sweetheart deal to in exchange for his vote? He's obviously not this guy then:

Not all Public union workers are thugs as a matter of fact the thugs are the one’s ticked off because now that this passed they won’t be able to line their pockets anymore.
Wait and see one by one they’re going to stop paying their dues it might be slow in the first year because of fear from their co unionists and peer pressure from coworkers but more and more are beginning to realize that there union was full of it. There’s already plenty out there some will drop it like a rock but some will give in to the pressure and keep doing what they do just because they know what will happen if they don’t.
It’s called fear.
Plenty of teachers are already complaining about the in home calls and pressure from coworkers and other union members.
Like the dinosaurs the union is about to die a slow painful death.
The ones your referring to are the ones that go on Facebook and declare they use the flag as toilet paper.
The ones that are calling for recall elections abusing what a recall is and should be used for.
None of these Republicans broke the law they did their jobs and for doing their jobs they now have to go through a recall that’s just plain Wrong.
Some not all union members have minds of their own they can think for themselves.
While I don’t think you’re a union thug I do think you’re a unionized person who believes everything your Fuhrer tells you

Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, it does. We now have two, count 'em, two Gov. Walkers in Wisconsin. Scott Walkers son, Matt, was elected Gov at Badger Boys State, an American Legion event held yearly at Ripon College. Too bad their terms couldn't be reversed. The final irony, both of their speeches, on Thursday had the main theme of - wait for it - unity! LOL

Amy...you are most welcome!

Ref33...you would make a great Milw JS reporter!

Tom Bal: I agree. Not all union members are thugs. In fact, I think most are pretty good people. Too bad we were treated to the displays in Madison over the past few months where the unionistas (either from Wisconsin or called to order to come from other states) and some bizarre liberals demonstrated for all to see just what is really important to them and how to disrupt the legislative process. How's that workin' for ya, by the way????

Spelosi: No, my cousin is not a union thug, nor are many of the teachers I worked with while subbing. They are a part of what could be called "the silent majority" - just like teachers who are conservative. They learn to keep quiet, for fear of what could happen if they speak out against the unions or libs in charge.
The times, however, are a changin' - for the better. Your nastiness is coming out, SPelosi - but I understand how difficult it is to be in your shoes these days, so I'll give you a pass for now.

Referee33: Shame shame shame! The Walker family, by all accounts, is a very nice family. The boys are good students and citizens. I wouldn't exactly criticize one of the Walker boys for going to Badger State - it is a very high honor. One has to exhibit leadership qualities while a junior in high school and be selected. Only 850 boys from all across the state are chosen to attend, and many famous Wisconsin politicians have been past Badger State attendees. You sound a bit like the media who bashes Sarah Palin's family. Shouldn't kids be off limits? Oh, that's right, they're from a conservative family! Then its OK!

Seriously, could someone who voted for Obama, explain their reasons for voting for him again, based strictly on issues? Please don't answer if you are one who is living off the taxpayer's dime in any manner, I can figure that part out. I really am curious. Is it just the pure hatred of the republican party? Big business? Big oil? George W? Or is it that you think he's 'cool'? Because from where I sit, I'm rather confused as what made/makes him qualified to even be there.

Now I'm not saying the republican ticket looks good by any means, but what has Obama really done for you? Health care? That's all I can think of.

Amy - So first you get a union thug response, then another going after Walker's son. Nice, isn't it? Although we all know this type of behavior is their m.o., it's clearly apparent they are running on empty. I don't know how you can log on and deal with this crap on a daily basis, I give you credit. Keep up the blog, the stories, the photos, the videos....just keep on pounding away. It drives them absolutely crazy, and it makes for some good fodder for us. The best part is, they cannot stay away, it is literally impossible for them to not chime in. They get so enraged, you can feel it through the screen. When you call them out about their anger, they'll try to prove we do the same. What they don't realize is that behavior is not part of the definition of being a conservative. Irregardless of the fact they can't stay on topic, I'm sure the only response I'll get is the dictionary definition of the word 'conservative', and blasted for using 'irregardless', which is not a word. That's all they have left.

"They learn to keep quiet, for fear of what could happen if they speak out against
the unions or libs in charge."

Well, if you live in fear of reprisal from the unions or the libs in charge for daring
to express your opinion then you certainly don't fit the description of a thug ("a
cruel or vicious ruffian, robber, or murderer.") ... but then, who does? But let's
be clear about this, it is your side who coined the stupid phrase in an attempt to
demonize an entire group of people, a group of people who are for the most part
hard working and decent. How you can lecture me about nastiness while your
side is immersed in it is beyond me.

My apologies to your fearful cousin. I'll refer to him as union wimp from now on.

Pelosi ! Are you a thug or a wimp ? I am the wimp ! What are you again Pelosi ?

"and blasted for using 'irregardless', which is not a word"

Sharp as an ax, this guy is. I'm ♥♥♥♥ing it!

But you still can not answer questions ! Is it because you are so sharp ? lol....

I guess I'll need to tell you people when I'm trying to be humorous. I'm in no way shape or form "going after Walker's son". I have nothing but admiration for those young men who are chosen to attend - including my own son as well - back in the 80's. I thought it was funny that, after what may be the most divisive six months of a new administration in WI, the theme for both of their speeches was unity. Lighten up already.

Amy - I told you so...and he even put hearts on it for me!

People, actually follow his link and see what it says. Yeah, this is a word alright, the internet told me so!

An erroneous word...not even a hundred years old...popularized by a comic radio program in the 30's....

Kind of like the word 'djeet'. Djeet yet? (did you eat yet?)

Thank you so much for setting me straight Palin, you wordsmith you.

Referee33: You stated: "Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, it does. We now have two, count 'em, two Gov. Walkers in Wisconsin. Scott Walkers son, Matt, was elected Gov at Badger Boys State, an American Legion event held yearly at Ripon College."
Now, to me that does sound like you aren't happy with Walker OR his son ("just when you thought it couldn't get any worse") - who won the governer's post in a mock election at Badger State. Guess I missed the "humor" (wink wink).

And ref: many of us don't think balancing the state budget, ending the age of cushy, unbelievably great entitlements, benefits, and pensions (paid for by the taxpayers) for public employees, getting the safeguard against cheating at the polls - with Voter ID - in place, AND allowing people to conceal carry (as do 48 other states - that haven't morphed into the Wild Wild West, either) are "worse." Actually, I believe those who voted for Walker and the Republicans are very happy with what is going on in Madison right now. The legislation coming out is common sense, fiscally sound, and will get our state back on the right path after Doyle drove us into the ground.

SPelosi: In no way is my cousin - a Milwaukee policeman - a union wimp. I really don't think there are too many "wimps" walking around wearing a badge and carrying a gun, protecting honest citizens and risking their lives on a daily basis. How dare you. I'm not giving you a pass on your nastiness now. Even if you are so unhappy cuz the liberal mentality in our state is being dismantled.

And the best you can offer is to go after Sharpaxe's use of a certain word? Why not answer the question about WHY you voted for Obama? Would love to hear that response, rather than one of your petty retorts you seem to like so much.

What you failed to mention about the word irregardless is "There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead." From Merriam-Webster's website.
