I need your help.
While Scott Walker has been campaigning for President the last four years, he officially kicked off his campaign the morning after he won re-election. Now he loads up on taxpayer money and heads to Iowa as often as possible.
A quick check of his biggest donors and we see that Wisconsinites are not very well represented:

Dig a little further and we see that Mr. Walker truly does believe in pay to play. With so many out of state millionaires funding his campaign, that means lots of out of state contracts
.
Executives from three of the four construction companies that won a bid for a $197 million state office building project have contributed more than $58,000 to Republican Governor Scott Walker’s campaign.
The team chosen for the project is comprised of C.D. Smith Construction in Fond du Lac, Gilbane Inc. in Milwaukee, HGA in Minneapolis and SmithGroup JJR in Detroit.
Campaign finance records show executives of C.D. Smith contributed $57,000 to Walker between 2009 and 2014, led by the two Fond du Lac families that own the company. Thomas, Robert and Cindy Baker contributed a total of $26,000, and Gary, Justin and Patrick Smith gave $24,500 to Walker.
Wisconsinites do not need the work anyway. I think everyone has given up thinking that jobs were ever a priority with Scott.
So here is where I need your help. Now that Mr. Walker is running for President and will only be making rare appearances in WI, what should we call his Presidential tour.
The best I have now is
The best I have now is
"The Scott Walker 50 State Presidential Tour"*
*Alaska, Hawaii, Wisconsin excluded
I will be writing alot about Mr. Walkers Presidential tour the next year + so I need a name to call it.
Thanks!
PS: I love that Mary Sue Shannon is just a lil ole homemaker and still able to give Scott Walker $110,000. She must keep one hell of a home!

ReplyDelete(of course, this name should always be accompanied by a graphic with lots of flags and bald eagles.)
What about: "The Defeat Bitter Liberals Tour."
ReplyDeleteMore like "The Bitter Liberals Were Right All Along Tour." Though having watched Scott Walker's tactics in the face of any real criticism in the last four years I assume it will be changed midway through to the "Not My Fault! Poor, Poor Me! Target On My Back Tour" to appeal to supporters such as yourself.

DeleteHGA and SmithgroupJJR both have offices in Wisconsin and are both highly regarded among their peers and past clients.... I wouldn't really consider that a truly out of state contract

Scott Walker I'll say what I'm paid to say Tour.
ReplyDeleteTimmy's comin' out of prison -- don't know if brian pierck can get conjugal visits.
ReplyDeleteWhat tours does walker hook up with men and boys for gay sex?
He is a homosexual and this is why he placed child molester brian at Wisconsin department of public instruction (imagine tony evers had a lot of fun with him too).
Timmy has been walker's BFF forever -- they have shared many a wienies and buns.
Scott Walker suffers from FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME. This is why his eyes are so wide apart and misplaced horizonally.
ReplyDeleteIt is also why he is a sociopath. His mother is credibly reported as an alcoholic -- but don't take my word -- look at this pic:

Anon 5:42 has a valid point -- walker's closest associates and ones he brought with him to Madison are sex offenders -- Tim Russell could/should have been charged with Brian.
Tim and Scott go back to Walker's Marquette days. There is not question at-to-whether-or-not these two gratified each other (which is OK if you are not hypocritical about it).
The real question is how many priests & church officials were involved (and that is not OK because it is inherently hypocritical about it).
Scott Walker was born deformed and mentally impaired, which has made him a perfect koch stooge. They want someone like him that will sign the bills and talk and do stoooopid things so that no one spends much time on the radical fascist agenda he promotes for others.
I honestly always wondered what Walker's IQ is. He is truly dumb, not just ignorant, but literally absent of logic, truth and basic comprehension. Then I saw the picture of his parents in the paper and I realized none of them had great genes, but none of them look impaired. I see his parents drive around town in a car that has Scott Walker bumper stickers on every inch of the car. It is obnoxious, just like their son. Seems the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. But then I see fetal alcohol syndrome and start researching that. Now, I think I finally understand what may be wrong with Walker. While he does have some notable features of a fetal alcohol baby, it would explain a lot about his limited cognitive ability, his strange facial tics, strange mouth shape and movement, his eye deformity and his inability to
ReplyDeleteproperly enunciate. His Mother looked strange in her photo and has acted strangely in public. I think some blogger needs to dive deep into Walker's family. There is more to this story.
