Source: Journal Sentinel Online

Beyond that, the budget is not moral, a representative of communities of faith now is coming forward to say.

2. it's about time the more "liberal" religions stood up

4. I doubt Walker thinks of workers, the poor, elderly, disabled-unless

at Marquette before he was kicked out.

8. Walker has helped the Country
his stupidity has helped people like Paul Rand to create his masterpiece and now the World knows the stupidity of the Republican Party.
