Wisconsin GOP Legislator Says Police, Fire Unions "Bought Out" His Party
Call it the great unraveling.
A Republican legislator uses the phrase "bought out" to confirm what Scott Walker critics have been saying from Day One about why police and firefighter union members got better treatment in the union-busting bombshell bill.
Taken together with conservatives publicly ripping party tactics, Walker's plummeting popularity, and Republicans' openly recruiting fake candidates to run in recall elections to force Democratic into costly primaries, the GOP could be heading for a dramatic collapse in the recalls this summer.
The consequences of overreach and duplicity.

How about thinking of it this way: the Walker administration "bought off" the police and fire unions with promises to rescind the residency requirements, as well as not to go after their pension and health contributions in exchange for the unions staying out of the collective bargaining fight.
In transactions of one human being or group "buying" or "buying off" another, someone usually gets screwed. Was the screwed party Walker or the unions? Now do you see how Kapenga has it turned around?
this may enhance the claims of other unions in court that they were denied equal protection under the fourteenth amendment to the constitution.
