Yep. That would be the one, the only, Mr Galt.

Try again.

I'm not a conservative. I get to sit on the sidelines and watch both sets of monkeys make fools out of themselves. Liberals happen to be quite a bit more entertaining than conservatives in this regard.

Oh, my appologies good sir.

Sorry about that Galt. You're not that delusional.

the guy is a total dumbshit crackpot
He's very smart, he must be the highest paid mouthpiece of the whole Murdoch corporation.
He' the Tracy Emin of TV.

there's no way he has that much thought behind what he does. he's good at populist galvanizing... sure... a demagogue.

nothing smart about being a demagogue though. just low-intellect opportunism and exploitation.

He's smart in the sense he's figured out how to make a lot of money from total garbage - low-intellect opportunism and exploitation requires some strategy.

No. It simply requires an audience and some degree of luck. He is surrounded by people that do the packaging and selling for him. He knows and even routinely admits that he is not exceptionally smart. Apparently that is what his base likes about him . They identify with his intellectual under-achievement. It's a sacred bond they share.

Well, he will have had a mixture of luck, intelligence and hard work to get to that situation, and now he needs a bit of cunning to spiel what the audience wants to hear.

I think that cutting the public sector salaries to reduce debt is a bit of a stop gap measure, and is only likely to lead to a lower quality public sector.

If it drives away workers, how does that help the state? How does the public sector gain anything from this?

By all means cut spending projects, but hitting salaries of the middle/working class public servants is going to help anyone.

It's not cutting salaries, it's addressing long-term entitlements, which is the account(s) that is/are breaking the states' and federal coffers--and that nobody has had the stones to touch. Additionally, this measure only addresses a small part of Wiscinsin's overall budgetary shortfall--and the opposition is fighting THIS hard? What about when they have to make the REALLY hard cuts?

War Man: Australians are hermaphrodites.; +563|6931|Purplicious Wisconsin

Hehehe, I'm getting entertainment with what's happening over here. Ah, so good. Can't wait 'til the other states start doing the same thing Wisconsin is doing so the union protesters can then divide up their protester force between the states. God, these are good times. I love my Governor and I love my state, I still refuse to be a packers fan though.

Edit: Oh and finally Wisconsin is getting some real fame, I feel pride to be a in a famous state now.
