Another Walker Lie Exposed

http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/117656563.html


<snip>

"Lawmakers may have more time to resolve the state's immediate budget problems than previously believed - which could lower tensions among legislators but also prolong a weeks-long standoff.

Gov. Scott Walker's administration said when his budget-repair bill was unveiled last month that it had to pass by Feb. 25 because of a bond deal included in the bill. But officials said Wednesday they may have until early April to secure the bond package."


Earlier Walker said he would have to start laying off public workers if the February 25 deadline wasn't met.

2. Walker can take his phony budget crisis
and shove it up his ass (where it originally came from, btw).

5. Is there no legal mechanism that can call him on these tactics and oust him?

6. Recall petitions can start in November
They can be filed in January when he has completed one year in office. Then there is an election to see if he stays in office or someone else replaces him. This is provided in the state constitution.

7. Yes but wonder if he hasn't already broken some laws. Better now than later.

8. We're working on it. Lobbying from his office is illegal, which he did...
...on the fake Koch all. Lying in court regarding cleanup costs. Refusing Freedom of Information Act requests to release the "30,000 supportive emails" he claims to have received.

I'll be surprised if he lasts long enough to be recalled.

9. The Dirt Bag just can't tell the truth, lies are his truth. He and those of his ilk
have no trouble telling lies, because they believe we are too stupid to tell fact from fiction. Unfortunately for them, a lot of us are now awake and we are far from stupid. The poor little thing, once he's recalled, he should check himself into a nice institution for evaluation and rest, preferably in a nice tight straitjacket and a large ball gag.
