Wisconsin Judge Trumps Election

                    


Bad Judges
It's by now an old story.  Citizens vote into law something left-Democrats don't agree with, so they do what?  That's right.

Wis. judge strikes down law limiting union rights

A judge struck down Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's law that repealed most collective bargaining rights for public employees Friday, reports the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

The deeply controversial law revoked nearly all collective bargaining rights from most workers and has been in effect for more than a year.

NPR reports that the original law signed by Walker in February sparked massive protests and even caused all 14 Democratic lawmakers to flee the state to Illinois in a failed attempt to stop its passage.

The Governor's staunch support of the law was partially responsible for the unsuccessful attempt at recalling him earlier this yea

Everyone knows that there's really only one solution anymore, but it's a Sophie's Choice.  Do we save the country from judicial tyranny with the noose—by  sacrificing our tradition of making things work without resorting to violent third world solutions?

 Make that Hobson's choice.

  1. —by sacrificing our tradition of making things work without resorting to violent third world solutions?

    "Our" 'tradition' started with violence. Violence brought about because the previous options didn't work.....This is NOT about choosing the lesser of two evils or two bad choices. This is about free men being free to rule themselves, or tyranny. Period.

  2. I'll concur, at least for the short term. The longer term solution is a constitutional amendment prohibiting unions, unionization or anything resembling collective bargaining for government employees, government contractors or any organization working for, contracted to or engaged in commerce with any government within the national boundaries of the United States.

    Like all professions, the legal profession has its own special terminology, conventions, etc.  For example, lawyers have a special title for the dumbest person in a courtroom.  They call him "your honor".

    Impeach the commie bastard "pour encourager les autres".
