MADISON, Wis. — Americans strongly oppose laws taking away the collective bargaining power of public employee unions, according to a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll. The poll found 61% would oppose a law in their state similar to such a proposal in Wisconsin, compared with 33% who would favor such a law.
This whole anti-union campaign in Wis. has felt to me like a GOP screw up. This confirms it. Want another example that will probably fuck them up in 2012? Here, the state of Missouri repeals its child labor laws. Booyah! Back to the days of Oliver Twist!
And, because its Missouri, just for kicks,here's my rendition of the theme from Deliverance:
Dingalingningningning...ning...ning...ning. Dingalingningningning...ning...ning...ning.
Dingalinganinganing...Dingalinganinganing....Dinalinganinganinga
ninganinganinganing...!
...and etc.
