plus, cant new governors just UNSIGN bills that they dont like?
and why not?

would be a great way to derail lame-duck bills

maybe just executive orders to ignore dumbass bills which became laws ...

sigh

stupid checks and balances

He's been reaching out to those that are struggling and pushing them under to raise himself up.

Walker himself then adds: "From our family to yours: Blessings of the season."

Why is governor Walker persecuting Christians? Surely he knows this time of year you're only allowed to say "Merry CHRISTmas," with a growl on the "Christ" to remind non-believers that they're unwelcome.

Can you imagine the outrage if Obama had said "blessings of the season?"

I honestly think if they manage to oust the bastard, they should just retroactively hand the keys to Tom Barrett.

Here's to Wisconsin getting a Governor who's not a college dropout.

I'd vote for him. What worries me is if the recall fails, Walker is going to double down on the dickishness just to punish us for not liking him.

I just wonder whether the soup kitchen was suppose to be there to soften his image, or if it's an implied threat to all the Wisconsin people who are losing their jobs that Walker controls the soup ladle so if you want some relief after his corporate cronies crash the economy,you better not sign that recall petition.

Yeah, now that the barbarians are at the gate he's all like "Hey now, I know I mistreated you in the past, but it's different now. Can't we just be friends? Put down your pitchforks and I'll go on about my business treating you like shiat."

Somebody on this site (or maybe it was another site ) had an interesting idea. Build full size models of guillotines with cardboard blades and just leave them in places where 1 percenters are known to gather.

It all started with the union thuggery against the permanent, silent GOP moral majority. Poor Scott had no choice but to defend the people from these attacks!

He should need not worry though. He knows they are weak and he is strong.

I know Lt. Mitchell (head of the WI firefighters union) has been considering. I think he'd be an excellent candidate. He is a great speaker, he motivates people to action very well, is well known at this point because he's been on the front lines of the anti-Walker movement, isn't a career politician which I think WI voters are looking for after this last year, he's educated and charismatic, has executive experience (with unions anyway). There are others, but I can't think of them at the moment. Someone will be there to take Walker's spot.
