Wisconsin Recap.


Appearing in the The Washington Post, George Will penned an excellent review of the goings on in Madison, Wisconsin: the GOP Revolution at the state level, Scott Walker's greatness, the contra-collective bargaining law, the feckless recall elections, etc.
Democrats furiously oppose Walker because public employees unions are transmission belts, conveying money to the Democratic Party. Last year, $11.2 million in union dues was withheld from paychecks of Wisconsin’s executive branch employees and $2.6 million from paychecks at the university across the lake. Having spent improvidently on the recall elections, the Wisconsin Education Association Council, the teachers union, is firing 40 percent of its staff.
