I had my eyes opened yesterday by an article at Red State, “Twelve Reasons Not to Vote for Scott Walker”.

I know this hit piece is being shopped around by people who support another candidate.

It was written with half-truths, lies by omission and, I will suggest charitably, by someone who did not bother to research the facts.

Reporting has become a lazy, just cut and paste and post it activity.

I've played the wack-a-mole too many election cycles to keep jumping through these OP hoops.

fwiw

The assertions seem to be pretty straight forward. I have verified some of them: the ban on conceal carry, the Pass for Public Safety Unions that supported Walker, his ooposition to Defunding Obamacare and bypassing the legislature to implement it.

The fact that Pro-Life Bills on his desk have not been signed, his order to recognize gay marriages going back to last June, his flip flop on ethanol, the undisclosed, unvetted bill keeping Common Core that he pushed through, and his well documented changing positions on immigration.

If it’s True it can’t be dismissed as a “hit piece”. If you can refute the truth of the facts presented, please do so.

Good Post! Take a look at Red State article, “Twelve Reasons Not to Vote for Scott Walker”. I have fact checked most of the assertions on there. So far it all seems accurate although some who support Walker are trying to dismiss it as a ‘hit piece”. If it’s the truth it’s not a “hit piece”.

I spotted that article as well. I’ve verified most of it although Walker supporters have tried to dismiss it as a “hit piece”. We’ve got to get real and face truths even when we don’t like it. If serious issues come up that show Cruz not to be who we thought, I’ll remove my support from him. I dont’ get those who remain willfully blind to facts.

Post your links - where you’ve verified your information - and state your concerns.

I will look them over and respond.

It’s impossible to reply to that jumble of stuff you just listed at random with no correlation, or respected sources to ascertain their meaning.

Do what I did. Google them. You seem to have already dismissed everything. Did you fact check what the article said?

You’re cute.

You can’t be bothered to do anything beyond asking me to jump and respond to your accusations (Alinsky 101).

You call things “facts” but apparently haven’t studied them enough to be able to back up in detail where this information is found.

I’m the one whose posted the facts, cleaned up the misconceptions and tried to educate.

You’re here to campaign for another candidate.

All anyone needs to do is move back up this thread to see how it’s done - by you.

I read it when it came out. It's written by a Rand Paul supporter.

Hey, why don't you leave New Hampshire and help lower the liberal population?

When we leave, it will lower the conservative population...conservatives like the ones who would never vote for RINO's like Bass, Ayotte, and so forth. Marilinda Garcia was as close to a conservative candidate as they get here in Red Hampshire, and she was beat like a drum by the likes of Anne Kuster, a foul-mouthed reprobate of a Congresswoman.

Moving back to Mass? Hard to 'move back' when I have never lived there in the first place. The influx of people from Massachusetts, New York and other marxist meccas insure that Red Hampshire will stay blue for years and years to come. It is no longer a 'bellwether' primary state, and should not be regarded as such.

Walker denied conceal carry in State buildings contradicitng state law. jsonlin, Nov 30, 2011

Walker targeted unions while giving Public Safety Unions that supported him a pass. www.governing.com 2/29/2015

Walker tried to block Right to Work legislation jsonline 2/20/2015

Walker Opposed Obamacare Funding and bypassed legislature to implement it. nation.time.com 11/4/2013

Walker is currently backing away from Pro-Life Bills on their way to his desk dailycaller.com 3/19/14

Walker has not supported Traditional marriage and has ordered that gay marriages dating back to June be recognized. www.jsonline.com talkingpointsmem.com

Walker flip flopped on ethanol. reason.com 3/19/2015

Walker is soft on Common Core pushing through legislation before it was vetted taht was largely Common Core. www.thenewamerica.com

It is so well known here about Walker’s flip flop on Immigration that I won’t even bother to add sources.

There are multiple sources to back up every single charge against Walker in the Red State article. Maybe it will help those who genuinely want to know the truth about the candidates, those who are still objective.

I appreciate Scott Walker taking on the Unions and winning a Recall Election. I've said on here before that I think he is a decent and good man. If he is the GOP nominee I will donate to, and work for, his campaign. But, he has not demonstrated that he has strong convictions like someone such as Ted Cruz. We all must admit that he has back-peddled and been wishy-washy, and soft, on various issues such as "The Path to Citizenship", rolling over on instituting Obamacare for Wisconsinites and others.
I pray that we do not become like the Liberal, Left-Wing radicals who attack anyone who presents the case that their candidate is a less than desirable candidate. It is so "Saul Alinsky" to willfully disregard the facts and just accuse one's opponents of "throwing someone under the bus" or publishing "hit pieces". Is that what we have come to?

To: who knows what evil?

I’m with you.

I live in what has become Red Hampshire.

I remember when the NH legislature only met once every two years, and then only for two months.

I remember when north of Concord, you would see signs in the stores that said, “Ici nous parlons anglais.”

Now my home town is overrun by commies from MA, CT, NY, and RI, many of them retirees. Why didn’t they just move to FL?

I see Prius cars plastered with 0bama and Kuster bumper stickers.

We were stunned when that hag beat the beautiful Marlilinda. The commies only have eyes for their ideology.

If I move, it will probably be out of the country.

I get it that you don’t want to face the truth. It’s not my job to post links for you. All that’s necessary is typing the question in the search bar on google.

I’m trying to provide information to those who are honestly vetting candidates. Accusing everyone who raises concerns about Walker of being Alinsky-ites while ignoring well sourced actions that the governor has taken is a very weak position, indeed. Burying your head in the sand is not an option this election.

Marilinda would have made a GREAT Congresswoman...I'd like to see her move to a more conservative state where she could WIN so we could get another conservative in the House.

My wife's 'home town' has been overwhelmed, as well...

I remember when teen-agers would cruise Elm Street in Manchester on warm summer nights...I sure as heck wouldn't do it now. :-)
