If people were "lead to believe" something I didn't say, I don't know how to comment on that. It wasn't my intention. Gov. Scott Walker was on defense.
This whole affair was concocted by the Democrats under the demands of their Union constituency. The Democrats were on offense, in this affair.
It was they who poured money into trying to portray Gov. Walker as some sort of public fiend. They used every backhanded tactic they could think of and portrayed this as a crystal ball, a foretelling of the coming elections in November.
"The people would make their voices heard" they proclaimed in all their "Occupy Wisconsin" hoopla.............. and, sadly for them, in that they were correct.
This was Democrat engineered, Democrat driven; and democratically a total "crash and burn" for the Democrats and especially for the Unions. This was folly for the Unions and sadly (I really mean this) will resonate beyond this election in a demonstration of Union weakness and vulnerability that the Unions in this age can ill afford.
