Why would I? I've never made that contention about Walker.

It seems you are confusing your sureity that Obama bailed out GM only because he's owned by the Unions, with Walker passing ALEC-inspired legislation. You've taken your unproven assumption about Obama, and want me to use your illogical argument to disprove something entirely different, a claim I've not made, but you are?

You are saying that GM was bailed out only because the President was owned by unions. Convince us, before you demand that others take that assumption as inherently true and use it as a proof for their own argument (which is crazy, btw)

Walker passed the ALEC- and RGA- recommended union busting legislation in the face of 100% agreement to his requested cuts and concessions by those very same unions, falsely claiming he needed to union bust to get the cuts, thus doing something he never campaigned upon, and in the face of massive counter-demonstration by his citizens and half his legislature. And now he, his lt. gov, and 4 GOP senators face recall for it. They are getting unlimited (legal) campaign donations from out of state from big private donors, and very little from his own citizens. Far more than what his opposition has currently received.

And no, that is not the same contention as "but Obama bailed out GM because he was owned by unions".
