Wisconsin today...

From Charlie Sykes, the story of teachers turning on an old friend because he supported Walker...  the good news is, they didn't check into the new business they chose to visit.  Turns out, the other business owner was a Walker supporter too!  Jokes on you I guess.

Personally overheard state employees complain because they were no longer going to be able to work overtime during the same week they use vacation time.  Oh, the horror!!  You mean it's not ok to use 40 hours of vacation time, then go in for a weekend shift and get overtime pay??   Seriously....  how did this even happen in the first place?  Oh, yeah, abuse of the system brought to you by the unions.  Thanks guys.

Speaking of unions, WEAC says they are not planning any protests next week while the budget bill is on the table.  Somehow, I don't trust them but I guess time will tell.  Maybe they are realizing that people most likely won't take too kindly to more of this nonsense.  I think also that the Special Olympics thing didn't play well for them so they want to take a low profile.
