I have a question about some of the Wisconsin unions

[theHandpuppet]

Have the leaders of the firefighter, police officer and state trooper unions made any statements about having thrown their support to Walker during the last election? Just what the hell were they thinking? It's nice to see the rank and file supporting the protest, but their union leadership helped to create this mess.

1. Yes

2. What about the firefighters and police unions?

I see a spokesman for the trooper's union now rues the union's backing of Walker -- let's just hope they remember this betrayal in 2012.

3. They're marching with the protesters.

I don't know what other official statements have been made.

4. I know the rank and file are marching with the protestors

Maybe if their unions hadn't supported Walker, there would be no need to march. Like I said, what were they thinking?
