News first hand from Sea Willie in Madison, Wisconsin

Just a quick report from the heart of the crisis. As a 22 year Wisconsin State Employee, and union member, I can tell you and the world that Scott Walker is a big poop. His only goal is to eliminate unions. Then he’s going after old people and learning disabled children. Really. That’s the next target on his “The best part of life is ripping the wings off butterflies” agenda. As far as I know, there have been no camps or extermination stations built, but there is plenty of room in the prisons built by the last goofy Republican governor.
 
We have conceded to all his points regarding the fiscal responsibility of state employees, and he still wants to crush the unions, even as he says on national television that he isn’t about crushing unions. So he is very direct in his lying. Much like George and Dick and WMDs.
 
Essentially the City of Madison, at least the big State Government campus part right downtown, is besieged by clueless national television reporters. Where do they get these people? The are embedded in the situation for 3-4 days and still aren’t capable of communicating the truth to the viewer/listener.
 
I came to work today. Not out of loyalty, just because I wanted to do my job. Like I have for 22 years. I’ll send more when there is more to send.
 
Also, I want to point out that my union usually does very little for me, but compared to Scott Walker, they are saints.
