Walker Dodges Questions About Email Release


Poor Gov. "Beam Me Up" Scottie Walker (Koch-WI).  He couldn't even catch a break from Chris Wallace on GOP-TV  Fox "News" yesterday (making us wonder if Roger "Jabba the Nut" Ailes has a stiffie for another contender -  Jeb "The Smart One" Bush?).  The trove of 27,000 staff emails recently released has shown some of those closest to him while he was Milwaukee County Executive were, um, small-bore racists.  And then there were the private email accounts:
WALLACE: Did you have your own private e-mail account?
WALKER: It’s one of those where I point out, the district attorney has reviewed every single one of these issues--
WALLACE: But sir, you’re not answering my question.
WALKER: No, because I’m not going to get into 27,000 different pieces of information. The bottom line is a Democrat who led the district attorney's office looked at all of this and decided not to charge anything other than the individuals you mentioned, who are people who worked for the county in the past who don't work for me today. I think that's pretty straightforward.
Followers of this blog will know that we've been tracking this weasel Scottie for some time.  It's bad enough that he's turning Wisconsin into a Koch brothers dystopia.  That he's likely running for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016 is just appalling.

Before the Koch brothers' his ambitions for higher office can be furthered, he would need to be reelected in 2014.  That's why it's extremely important that Mary Burke be elected Governor of Wisconsin.  Please consider making a donation, or if you're a Badger, volunteering for her campaign.  (h/t to P.E.C.)
