It sure felt good to sign the Walker and Kleefisch recall petitions this morning

[N7Shepard]

I'm just saying :)

[rog]

1. Where are good places to sign?

I'm a little worried about signing one of those fake petitions.

Thanks in advance.

[N7Shepard]

2. I signed at the Dem HQ of Walworth Co

[PeaceNikki]

3. go to wisdems or united Wisconsin recall offices.

Or official events

[rog]

19. Thanks ...

Found the HQ in West Allis, pretty close to my house. All the offices are listed at WisDems.

10. In Brown County recall petitions are at the Democratic Party Headquarters

on West Mason Street, and I signed the recall petitions at the Labor Temple on Green Bay's east side on Elizabeth Street between Radisson and Cofrin Streets. The hours at the Labor Temple are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

4. Thanks for signing! It sure felt good to collect 30 signatures without really trying

Just sayin' :)

[N7Shepard]

5. I'm still waiting to get trained for petitions.

[snacker]

7. Some of the offices will do walk-in trainings, I think.

It doesn't take that long, and they'll be happy for the help. Also, there are still training sessions being held around the state, according the WisDems and United Wisconsin websites (calendar).

20. Walworth Co Dems said they didn't do walk in training

[Yon_Yonson]

6. At the our local Library

I stationed myself at the public entrance and collected 40 (80 Joint)Walker/Kleeficher Recall signatures and I wore Recall Walker advertisement and they came to me.

Then we had a drive thru rally/petition signing and we must have had a couple of hundreds signature. This is going to be my life for the next couple of months.

[snacker]

8. I'm helping with a drive-thru signing tomorrow night.

I can't wait.

14. I just talked to folks I knew. People came out of the woodwork once they saw one of my friends

signing. It was awesome. I hardly did a thing. And I guess that is 60...30 on each :) Tomorrow will be awesome because I have a different targeted area. People are fired up!

9. I just got trained today.

It felt great to put my name on the top of the list.

[seacaves]

25. Yes, I did that also and it was sweet. I have taken by

petition clip board with me all week and have signed some up as I do errands etc. Many were thankful that I had it with me.

11. I'm aprehensive

With the talk radio heads in SE Wis threatening to make public and expose the signees, the last thing I need is to be blacklisted while job hunting. :-(

Any suggestions?

[sybylla]

12. They're going to expose 700,000 petition signers?

Who's going to care enough about who signed the petitions to work through finding a few names among 700,000? And that's if we don't pull an Ohio and get 1,000,000 sigs.

Legally, your private political activities aren't actionable at work. That won't stop the worst of the worst from finding an excuse.

If you're really concerned, just don't sign, Jimbo.

[Jimbo S]

13. I can see them posting the petitions online

and a HR Manager somewhere doing a CTRL-F to scan an applicants name. Some of these cons would stoop to this. I have 60 days to decide.

[seacaves]

27. I think if you can formulate a reasonable response, one

that is not polarizing, you will be OK if asked.

I have had to tone down my rhetoric at times when talking with people.

I say I know (and this is true) that the head of house was laid off. He can not afford health insurance and Badger care is a life line for his two kids. I also say, I know there is abuse in Badger care and food stamps and I am all for weeding that out but I am not for kicking off families in need during these rough times.

Collective bargaining is NOT the only issue I am concerned about if they bring it up.

[pacalo]

15. That sounds like extortion. If this tactic isnt against the law, it should be.

[Scuba]

16. Yes, sign the petitions and don't be cowed by those bullies...

... those are idle threats, anyway.

[Jimbo S]

34. I signed last week

in a different part of the state than where I live. So people scanning petitions from my town won't see my name.

[N7Shepard]

17. Does anyone have an audio link or direct quote of this?

[Jimbo S]

22. I can't find it online

When I get home this weekend I will post Mark Belling's column from last week. I also heard somewhere Sykes will get into the act.

[Jimbo S]

23. "Now is the time to take the gloves off"

By Mark Belling, The Freeman, November 9, 2011,

"...Know this, also. If you sign a Walker recall petition, expect everybody to know about it. Signing one of these petitions is an official act and the petitions are public records. They are fair game for anyone to scrutinize and publicize. Think that's out of line? Tough. For a year my side has been bullied by tactics way over every line of civil decency."

[seacaves]

28. It is a dividing tactic that Belling uses--just like Walker uses

dividing tactics. Intimidation tactics are the lowest form of scum.

[yourout]

31. Ok....turn about is fair play. I will support the business owners that are on the list then.

[MoDupey]

18. Same here.

I was so happy to see a lady in my small town as well. I ran over to her so I could sign. It felt wonderful.

[undeterred]

21. I've got about 40 sigs in my neighborhood so far doing doors

and only 2 people said no. Two grumpy old men- one said Walker was saving him money. Most people are delighted to see me at their door and eager to sign.

[seacaves]

26. Yes, I find going door to door yeilds good results.

[N7Shepard]

29. Does going door to door work good in conservative areas?

I live in a rural part of Elkhorn, it's probably fairly conservative but I'm not sure how much.

24. I signed the other day, and

yes, it does feel good. And I'm so happy that so many signatures have been gathered this early in the game. Just goes to show you how disgruntled everyone is with Mr. Walker.

[yourout]

30. Got to do it tonight.....saw some suprise signatures on the form.

A few names I thought for sure were tighty rightys.

Walker is in deep do do.

He may have flipped this state back blue for a generation.

33. My wifer and I signed Saturday Afternoon

In front of Outpost in Wauwatosa.

It felt good.

[cognoscere]

35. Yes, it feels good, but what feels even better is to

volunteer to help. I spent three hours helping people sign; giving out bunches of new petitions to those stalwarts who were out pounding the pavement; and learning the fine details of what is involved in this recall process. That felt great - knowing I was actively helping to flush that Koch turd out of office, along with his Palin imitation. But even better was meeting and talking with people who are flexible, open-minded, intelligent, and passionate not only about making Wisconsin whole again, but making it better as well.(even ran into my senator - way cool to see them in person.)I strongly urge everyone to take a shot at volunteering at one of the local offices.
