‘Wanted’ Photo of the Day: 14 Renegade Wisconsin Democrat State Senators for Dereliction of Duty, & Gov. Walker Tells Obama to Butt Out (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on February 18, 2011
H/t to Gateway Pundit for this hilarious graphic… it’s even funnier because it’s true.
Wisconsin state troopers have been dispatched to round up the MIA Wisconsin Democrat politicians, who are now reportedly hiding in CHICAGO (they were found yesterday hiding in Rockford, Illinois, so they are now obviously on the lam) — they fled Wisconsin yesterday to avoid voting on the state budget and still haven’t returned to work to do their friggin’ jobs:
Wanted sign: 'Wanted, 14 Renegade Democrats for Dereliction of Duty'
President Pantywaist has picked sides (NOT with American taxpayers, of course, but with his corrupt buddies in the unions) and has publicly disparaged Wisconsin’s Gov. Scott Walker for his bold attempts against the liberal fat-cat unions — who, BTW, are shipping in professional protesters from other states to make the protest numbers in WI look larger than they are — they even have phone banks set up, so don’t be fooled that this is like a grassroots “liberal” tea party movement. Not in a million years is this anything like a tea party rally — it’s being funded by the unions and the DNC (and I wouldn’t be stunned if George Soros also wrote a big ol’ check).
Gov. Walker is trying valiantly to bring the state’s bleeding-red budget down, no thanks at all to government employees, teachers, and the unions. Another one of Obama’s “winning the future” — aka “WTF” moments.
Be still my heart… the Wisconsin governor pretty much told POTUS to go stick it in his ear and butt out of his business. For Captain Clueless to fix his OWN federal deficit budget problems. WOW!
New Speaker of the House John Boehner (who didn’t cry, I’ve been told) commended Gov. Walker and supported him for his courageous stance, for “daring to speak the truth about his state’s fiscal challenges.”
GLORIOUS.
Chris Christie, is this awesome man with a spine related to you? Are you cloning yourself, Governor C?
In the interview below, Governor Walker talked with Steve Doocy of Fox & Friends about his budget repair bill and WI Senate Democrats shamelessly leaving the state to avoid doing their jobs.

From Legal Insurrection, Obama Acted Stupidly In Picking Sides Against The Taxpayers:
The drama unfolding in Wisconsin has the potential to be a defining moment in the 2012 presidential campaign because Obama openly has picked sides against the taxpayers in favor of public sector unions:
President Obama thrust himself and his political operation this week into Wisconsin’s broiling budget battle, mobilizing opposition Thursday to a Republican bill that would curb public-worker benefits and planning similar protests in other state capitals.
Obama accused Scott Walker, the state’s new Republican governor, of unleashing an “assault” on unions in pushing emergency legislation that would change future collective-bargaining agreements that affect most public employees, including teachers.
The president’s political machine worked in close coordination Thursday with state and national union officials to get thousands of protesters to gather in Madison and to plan similar demonstrations in other state capitals.
Obama has cast his lot with unions which seek to perpetuate a system of benefits which is destroying state budgets. The Governor of Wisconsin only wants to move these benefits more in line with the private sector and other states…
From TMJ4, Capitol Chaos: State Patrol Goes After Democratic Senators:
According to the Wisconsin senate majority leader, the Governor’s office is sending out state troopers to go after Wisconsin’s Democratic Senate members to bring in a vote on Governor Walker’s budget bill which would dramatically limit government workers union’s ability to negotiate many of their benefits.
“They are prepared to dispatch state troopers to go out to some of the residences of some of the senators,” said Republican State Senator Scott Fitzgerald on Newsradio 620 WTMJ’s “Midday with Charlie Sykes.”
“We don’t know that everybody is out of state. These troopers are going to go and try to escort these senators back to the chamber.”
The State Patrol cannot go after the Democratic senators who have left the state, and Democratic State Senator Jon Erpenbach told “Wisconsin’s Morning News” that all 14 Democratic Senate members have fled Wisconsin and have not announced a timetable for their return.
From Jennifer at Riehl World View, Gov. Walker to Obama: focus on balancing your budget, which you’re a long way from doing:
The more I hear from Governor Scott Walker, the more I like.
This morning on Fox & Friends, Walker told Obama, who criticized Walker’s bill as being an “assault to unions” to butt out of his state’s affairs and concentrate on balancing his own budget, which he has yet to do. He also has some choice words for those Wisconsin democrats hiding from doing their job.
Awesome stuff.
From Dakota Voice, Stand with Wisconsin:
Like many of you, I am watching in shock as “union thugs” try to intimidate the Wisconsin Legislators. The Left is using all the resources they can to stop the much needed budget cuts. If you thought we were going to take our country back without a fight, you were wrong. It is rumored that protesters were actually paid by the AFL-CIO and our “friends” from the SEIU who brought in organizers and protesters.
From Another Black Conservative, Scott Walker won’t be bullied:
It looks like Chris Christie isn’t the only Republican who isn’t afraid to do the “Big Things”. If Walker is successful, he would have eclipsed Christie’s record in dealing with the public sector.
Walker makes an excellent point. It is rather absurd that Obama and the Democrats are weighing in on Wisconsin’s financial situation, when they are incapable of getting the national budget in order.
Check out at The Other McCain the PAINFULLY LONG list of school administrators in Wisconsin who are earning six figures each year… poor babies.
BREAKING… Reported by Ace of Spades HQ, Obama, DNC Behind Wisconsin Protests:
It is meant to look like some sort of grassroots movement, but it isn’t. They have phone banks, union thugs, social media–the works.
Organizing for America, Obama’s campaign arm now under the umbrella of the DNC, has been mobilizing union members and supporters to rally against a proposed Wisconsin budget measure that would strip workers of collective bargaining rights and force them to contribute more for benefits.
Leaders have initiated phone banks and on-the-ground canvassing, and relied on a social media blitz on Facebook and Twitter to build turnout.
DNC Chairman Tim Kaine also reportedly spoke with Wisconsin union leaders and state legislators ahead of the protests, the Huffington Post reported, signaling his direct involvement in coordinating the effort.
Once again, the Community Organizer of the United States (“COOTUS”) inserts himself into local politics. Not very presidential.
Never to let a crisis go to waste — in the midst of all this Wisconsin chaos, Pres. Obama has appointed a union leader to a key role. UAW President Bob King is now a member of the Advisory Committee for Trade Policy and Negotiations. RedState has the full scoop… Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap: Obama Appoints UAW’s King to Key Post.
