Where is Scott Walker now that we need him?
Canada Free Press ^ | 10/22/15 | Arthur Weinreb

The Wisconsin governor was right; a fence between Canada and the United States is a legitimate issue.

When Donald Trump first entered the Republican race for president he captured the attention of the nation with his stance on illegal immigration. One of his proposals, laughed at by the elites but popular with ordinary Republican voters, was to build a fence along the southern border of the United States. The guy whose main reputation is in real estate and who builds hotels and other buildings, said he was capable of erecting a fence.

In late August, Wisconsin governor Scott Walker, who was given a good chance to win when he first entered the Republican primary race, appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press. Moderator Chuck Todd asked Walker why, since the Republicans are so concerned with border security, is there never any talk of a border fence between Canada and the US. The governor replied it was a “legitimate issue for us to look at.”

Yep.

He’s got a bit of fence mending to do here but he’s getting off on the right foot.

Our State Democrats are foaming at the mouth again :)

He wasn’t my guy but I wasn’t among the pack of rabid jackals who felt the need to tear him down.

Mitt Walker is hopefully doing his job as Governor of WI and keeping the state safe from College Professors. Somebody has to do it. :-)

He never proposed any fence. He was urging stengthning northern border security in response to complaints he was getting while campaigning in New Hampshire . That was a smear by some AP reporter which you just repeated.

Wisconsin unemployment dropped to 4.3 percent this week and our closing budget was announced to have a 145 million dollar surplus. The rabid jackals insisted we had a 2 billion deficit.

LOL! I really, REALLY wish I could get behind Cruz - but he always looks like Bono’s Dad saying, “You’ve disappointed me, Son...”

I can’t get past that. *SMIRK*

It is scary that Trump pretty routinely mouths Democratic lefty talking points. And of course spineless R’s don’t respond.
