[Coastal Nole.]

Another worthless "OctoChrisy" thread.

Get a life.

Loser.

Brilliantly pointless remark.

Clearly you might be listening but you're not big on reading, are you?

On Thursday, prosecutors charged Kelly Rindfleisch, deputy chief of staff to Walker in 2010, with four felony counts of misconduct in office for working for then-Rep. Brett Davis' 2010 campaign for lieutenant governor while on the county clock. Davis, who lost in the Republican primary, is now Walker's state Medicaid director.

I have no dog in this fight, except to note that the issue brought before us was worthy of an honest response.

Grow up, lad.

Two staffers who worked directly for Gov. Scott Walker while he was county executive were charged Thursday with illegally doing extensive political work while being paid by taxpayers to do county jobs.

One of the two, Darlene Wink, cut a deal with prosecutors under which she agreed to provide information in a related investigation about the destruction of digital evidence and to aid in further prosecutions. This is the first indication that the multifaceted John Doe investigation may be pursuing charges of evidence tampering.

Milwaukee County prosecutors also made the surprising disclosure that top Walker aides set up a private Internet network to allow them to communicate with one another by email about campaign as well as county government work without the public or co-workers' knowledge.

The emails Walker officials traded via the shadow network could provide investigators with a trove of information as they pursue other angles in the case. Earlier this week, the Journal Sentinel reported that the probe was focusing on possible bid-rigging and other misconduct in the competition to house the county Department on Aging in private office space.

In a statement, Walker's campaign said he had a policy against county employees using government resources to do campaign work.

"Scott Walker expected everyone to follow the law and made that clear publicly and privately," the statement said.

Walker faces a potential recall election later this year.

So there is substance to be had. Walker is history..... although not soon enough.

And I thought the last six straight months of job losses in Wisconsin (the only state in the nation to accomplish such a feat) following the signing of the Walker budget was bad.

Sounds like Wisconsin needs to drain the swamp.

How very elitist of you. No college degree! Big fucking deal.

 

[Two Thumbs]

So the Flee Party couldn't get all the recall sigs they needed, so they are assuming that they can nab Walker in a "shadow email" conspiracy.

You guys are fucking lame.

Jealous he reached that level w/o a degree?

Yeah ya are, ya little lying pussy.

 

[Chris]

The question is....What did Walker know, and when did he know it?

 

[Two Thumbs]

Actually a better question is;

what did obama know about the shovel ready jobs before he dumped a trillion dollars?


A; he knew it wouldn't work b/c his aides told him it wouldn't.

 

[Chris]

It's going to be fun watching the Koch sucker Walker going down.

The banality of evil....
