COLUMBUS – Assistant Ohio House Minority Leader Matthew A. Szollosi (D-Toledo) will host the Working Families Town Hall Tour in Toledo on Monday, February 21, 2011 at 7 p.m. at the Conn-Weissenberger American Legion Post on Alexis Road.
This town hall meeting will focus on Senate Bill 5, which proposes to eliminate collective bargaining rights for teachers, police, firefighters and all state employees.Numerous Organizing For America, the Obama grassroots group, meetings are scheduled to try to beat back 5.
The war against the Wisconsin budget goes on.
In just the right twist of the knife, the New York Working Families Party has this on their website, apparently unfazed by the results of the election in Wisconsin:
“Why teach my children about ethics if the elected officials who are supposed to look out for their best interests…do not practice it themselves?”
These words come from one of hundreds of New Yorkers who have written a letter to Governor Cuomo urging him to include publicly financed, voter-owned elections in his promised ethics reform legislation.Maybe that admonition only works when elections go the way they want. They have a new initiative called VOE, voter owned elections. Perhaps what they REALLY mean is OWNED elections.... be watching for more on VOE. It's the new push to run crooked elections.
Note what the Google search for Working Families reveals:
Organizing for America IS an extension of Barack Obama's campaign.
Quick! Everyone drone! CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE!
Meanwhile, back in Wisconsin, the teachers have defied their union commands and called in "sick" again; school is canceled today.
Boy, are they getting themselves in a whole heap of trouble.
Here's a suggestion, Governor Walker.
Go ahead and let them keep their salaries, their cushy health care plans, just the way it is now.
Then fire the 12,000 workers who the state will no longer be able to afford.
Why worry about the consequences? The workers obviously do not care about 12,000 in their midst.
There's no more money. You're trying to save jobs for people who obviously are more concerned about keeping what they have than the future. You're agonizing over a decision that should be pretty cut and dried, at this point, as it becomes obvious that cooperation is not forthcoming.
There're too many workers, many of whom do not appear to want to work anyway, apparently, costing the taxpayers around $12 million.
So give 'em what they want.
Fire 'em.
Then watch the backstabbing begin as they turn on one another.
This is what they're asking for, so give it to them.
What is your day job?
