On Wisconsin and that glorious prank phone call.
Edited on Fri Mar-11-11 03:33 PM by vanbean
Here is a link to a transcript of the call.

What I noticed most is the fact that Murphy hardly said anything. Talk about giving someone a tiny bit of rope with which to hang himself! This takes the cake. Another thing, it shows just how slimy Walker is. He is such a scheming asshat. He talks about denying the democrats their automatic deduction of their paychecks; how Tim Cullen made money in the private sector and that made him open-minded all the while being so full of himself about how he won’t budge; he is hoping the unions are paying for the democrats food and lodging in order prosecute the Senators for ethic violations or even better a felony; Walker bragged about sending out at-risk notices of layoffs of public employees; how he believes the democrats are scared about being recalled (which makes me think this will be a great counter-measure against the 8 or 9 republican senators); how he was going to trick them into coming back to talk and then going ahead with the session to vote as soon as they were there (not too slimy, not Scott, he has a bat in his office); he thought about bringing in some thugs; how his dissed Obama and Schumer because of the federal budget; and on and on. And Murphy said very little. One thing Murphy said that was a hoot was they should get Andrew Breitbart and that Mika was a beaut. But mostly Murphy just said “Ha”, “Goddam right”, or “Beautiful”. And it was beautiful. It was a beautiful prank. It showed the greasy Walker for the suck ass he is. Kudos to Murphy for supplying that tiny piece of rope.

2. Walker showed himself to be a nervous, chatty, eager to please corporate stooge.
Obama on the other hand, shows himself to be a calm, cool, collected functionary of TPTB.
Our guy is a smooth operator. You won't even feel that knife go in.

3. What about the Conspiracy to Commit Mayhem charge?
We hoped that would develop into something!
