Now the tools are gone- Walker has screwed them even more - now it's a revolt. Complaining is a weak and inappropriate term. Suckers? They didn't fall for anything.

I've adjusted my comments accordingly. <br /><br />You know, I even have to agree that "whining" is perhaps the wrong word. <br /><br />Don't be surprised if I change that.

Perhaps some were but for the most part the school board and administrators have been very supportive of teachers. And I wouldn't even call it whining as seen in your headline. They are defending their schools,students , staff and community. I don't think they saw the 0.0 increase in funding for their schools coming down the pipe. We all hoped that Walker gained some empathy in his sociopathic soul but we were wrong. THE UNINTIMIDATED ONE has just doubled down.

But on the point you and Sue have made, you're right about its political swing, so the post has been corrected while still making the same point. <br /><br />I do need to brush up on the demos in and around Milwaukee, my old home town.

In fact - they swing liberal every chance they get. This is a suburb that cares deeply for their schools. John- you need a lesson in demographics. In fact - James Rowen would disagree with you on this post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183447461205976739.post-30253285630000295172013-04-12T20:31:04.999-05:002013-04-12T20:31:04.999-05:00Shorewood went pretty strongly for Barrett in the ...Shorewood went pretty strongly for Barrett in the recall. I think people there probably did know what was coming.<br />I apologize for disagreeing, but I know people worked really hard in Shorewood to get the vote out, and were pretty successful,and I would characterize the community as one that heard the message.Suenoreply@blogger.com
