The key word is PUNISH. The questioner asked if the intent was to apply punitive action to the opposition. The intent of Walker’s actions is to bring fiscal (and political, BTW) sanity to the state, not to punish the opposition.
The questioner is an idiot.
So is the writer, IMO.
Wisconsin: Hit piece on Gov. Walker ping
FReep Mail if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
PS Received my absentee ballot in the mail today and have already filled it out. Will drop it off at City Hall tomorrow morning. BTW, I noticed that it doesn’t even require a stamp. For others voting by mail, don’t forget to get somebody to witness your ballot. A lot of people forget to have the witness sign, and their ballots are NOT counted.
As such, he is not beyond an outright lie, much less a simple misrepresentation.
I wouldn't trust the SOB to tell me the color of his daddy's Holsteins.
Circulation peaked at 187,000 in 2006 but by 2010 had dropped back to 145,000 in print though digital subscriptions had risen to over 15,000.....The Nation has lost money in all but three or four years of operation and is sustained in part by a group of more than 30,000 donors called The Nation Associates....
That all strings together on a Rube Goldberg operation of a line of logic. They have to make the (very long) leap to even insinuate the intent was to harm opponents. The “divide and conquer” comment was clearly in a political context.
That attempt at a “hail Mary” pass just thudded on the ground after all of one yard. That article likely got 3X the readership it normally would, just by appearing here. The communist propaganda organ “Nation” garners all the interest of a Piers Morgan interview.
Try again, lefties. Maybe accuse Walker of an extramarital affair... or a sexual assault. Oh wait, that won`t work either, since it`ll endear him to democrats.
Desperation. Even the national Democratic Party has abandoned the recall.
The videotape of Walker talking with Diane Hendricks, the Beloit, Wisconsin, billionaire who would eventually give his campaign more than $500,000, surfaced late last week. Captured in January 2011 by a documentary filmmaker who was trailing Hendricks.
Who was this DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKER? And why are they following around a conservative billionare? Do they work for Obama? The DNC? Unions?
This is getting very serious people.
It’s a compound question and it goes to his motive. It’s chilling that they could ask this question. Imagine hauling Obama before congress and asking him a comparable question.
