Walker has spent $25 million - and he can't get over 50%? Barrett has spent $2-3 million? Quote:
Sorry - that one's not "political". Be sure and post that confirmation (that their last report was off by thousands) here ![]() I'm more interested that Walker's response to Congress is due tomorrow. Serious question: does it not bother you that Scott Walker perjured himself and lied to a Congressional committee while under oath? And it's proven on videotape? And he's gonna have to either admit he lied to congress and the voters, or hold to the lie in the face of video evidence he's a liar? Be sure to watch the debate tonight on CNN at 9:00pm eastern, and vote Tuesday I notice the Republicans are pushing specifically to have Kleefish re-elected as Lt. Governor, even if someone doesn't want to vote for Walker - because if Scotty resigns in disgrace over felony charges, the Republicans want to hold the governorship. BTW, Bill Clinton is going to be campaigning in Wisconsin Saturday with Barrett. Oh - and Scotty today made a massive, 7,289 page e-mail dump as the result of an open records request. You can read them, here: http://www.scribd.com/WisconsinOpenRecords This was made in regard to Walker's union busting (the same thing he perjured himself to Congress over) "This email dump is the product of a public records request made about a year ago. The researchers responsible say that the request was for any and all emails that mentioned any of the keywords below. · state workers · AFSCME · AFL-CIO · AFLCIO · collective bargaining · Koch · quorum · Wagner Act · Americans for Prosperity · Bradley Foundation · prank · demonstrators · Flint hills · Reiss Coal · Georgia-Pacific · 480 · KochPac Have you noticed all the corporations publicly dumping membership in ALEC? Today Wal-Mart abandoned them (strange because the Waltons are Republican owners) Looks like that Republican "ACORN" is turning into a disaster of "do not associate oneself with".

You mean like he "crushed" Barret the last debate? Or when he sat there stuttering as Barrett talked about Walker's latest aid today, the 15th, to plea bargain in the FBI John Doe investigation? You know, the 15 felony and misdemeanor arrests and multiple plea bargains of the aids in Walkers last office? The one Walker won via a recall? (and Walker is now against recalls, and wants to change the laws - imagine that!)
Or how Barrett called out Walker for lying on camera about what he was referring to with "divide and conquer" in Walker's videotape, within the first five minutes of the debate? Or how Barrett pointed out that even Walker's "made up jobs numbers" actually were not "verified" by the BLS today, and even the "made up jobs numbers" show a loss, even though Walker keeps pretending they show more jobs. Or how Barrett pointed out, "My city arrests felons, you hire them"? Or how Walker sat silent while Barrett pounded him? Yeah, Walker "crushed" ![]()

Barrett- no plan for job creation and he didn't dispute that the job numbers released were accurate ( oh wait he wants to put a $100 million trolley on the east side of milwaukee that they won't bring to a vote because they know the voters don't want it). He actually tried to bring a republican idea of providing tax incentives to companies that will bring jobs to WI, but didn't really explain how he would do this he then went back to what he wouldn't have done. Walker- has a plan for job creation and it is working Barrett seemed a little agitated and at one point referenced "people of Color" in the city of Milwaukee. Barrett claims to be for the middle class but his fees and taxes that are higher than any other county in the state say otherwise. Ever heard of a wheel tax? It exists in Milwaukee. Doesn't exist any where else in our state. Is that taxing the rich or the poor? |

But in May 2010, Joseph N. Cantu, who had been Barrett's office receptionist, pleaded guilty to two counts of battery and one count of disorderly conduct in connection with an incident involving an ex-girlfriend, according to online court records. Cantu had been placed on unpaid leave after the charge became public. He was sentenced to 90 days in the House of Correction under the Huber law. In another case dating back to June 2008, Barrett appointed Boris Gokhman, a well known developer, to a business improvement district board. In 2004, Gokhman was convicted of health-care fraud |
