Scott Walker negotiated a 17% pay raise with a union that he asked the legislature to pass today. His GOP buddies laughed at him. Maybe they will laugh at him for some other things in the future.
Now, why would Scott Walker, fearsome enemy of unions, be such a pussycat with this union? Why did they get excluded from Act 10? Maybe because he was supported by them, maybe because he is all about Scott Walker and doesn't give a damn about whether there are public unions or not, as long as they support him. Walker is like Nixon in that way. He doesn't have opponents, he has enemies and he feels the need to destroy his enemies. Of course the GOP folks in the legislature already know that. Will they stand up to him, even on something like this or will they cave on everything whether it is good or bad for the state.
