Okay. We know the day is not over, but it will be difficult, even impossible for anyone to beat today’s funniest tweet. It is from Wisconsin’s Governor Scott Walker and his tweet goes out to the public employees of his state, the same “hard-working” public employees that received the brunt of Walker’s attacks for over a year now.
Sidenote: These public union workers in Wisconsin will get another shot at Walker in less than a month. His recall election is scheduled for June 5th.
Walker’s Tweet:
Thank you to our dedicated public employees in WI!We appreciate your hard work and sacrifice.

Needless to say, the Twitter world caught on to Walker’s sense of humor (if you wanna call it that). Below are some of the responses;
Completely disingenuous. @GovWalker Thank you to our dedicated public employees in WI! We appreciate your hard work and sacrifice.

@GovWalker but forget your right to assemble and have a union and screw you for giving in on my demand you pay more into your pensions — dave (@crazzeeedave) May 9, 2012
@GovWalker “appreciate your hard work and sacrifice” so we are going to take away your rights to collectively bargain #p2 #wiunion
