lol. Do you read what you link to or do you simply look at the title and make a judgment call?

It was a bidding process; a very structured decision making process.

Complete records kept.

If someone is a governor does that mean all friends and relatives of that governor are forbidden from bidding on government contracts?

 

[JakeStarkey]

all friends and relatives of that governor [should be] forbidden from bidding on government contracts

Not a bad idea. Judges, for instance, are ethically expected to recuse themselves from cases involving the same. With all the corruption in government you can't expect to be handing out lucrative contracts like this and not expect people to be suspicious.

The contracts awarded were in Florida, wholly decided by Florida’s Agency for Health Care Administration. Until the democrats come up with some explanation of why Florida gets some kind of instruction from Wisconsin this is smoke and mirrors.

Scott Walker had nothing to do with awarding the contract. The contract was awarded in Florida.

First Scott wasn't going to expand Medicaid using Federal funds. Then he was.

Saying that a $1million campaign contribution had nothing to do with Scott taking Federal money and also making that million dollar donor his finance manager is more than naive.

It is brain dead.

Don't Taz was quite correct in his political instincts. A fish rots from the head and Gov. Scott is hugely fishy.

You are right!

The unemployment rate in 2013 was 6.7% and the difference between 11.4% unemployment in 2009 and 2013 === IS: 4.7% DROP IN UNEMPLOYMENT.
4.7% drop IS a 41% drop....

It's Governor Rick Scott, not Governor Scott Walker.

Was anything illegal done? If not what's the point here?

If this was illegal then so was this:

Follow the money...........
John Podesta is the former president and now Chair and Counselor of the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank in Washington, D.C.,
Podesta was a co-chairman of the Obama-Biden Transition Project.
On December 10, 2013, it was reported that Podesta would be joining the Obama administration as a special advisor.

Stop us if you see a pattern here. About the time George Soros — Hungarian billionaire and key donor to leftist groups and the Democratic Party — invested heavily in the stock of the state-run Brazilian oil company Petrobras, President Obama was curbing U.S. offshore oil production and the U.S. Export-Import Bank announced a $2 billion loan to Petrobras to finance deep-water drilling off the pristine beaches of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
Soros & Buffett to profit off Obama Keystone veto.

My point is that if they were, we would not have such conflicts.

It's called corruption in government.

A guy from Wisconsin gets a couple of contracts in Florida, the outrage is exponentially larger than anything I ever felt about Obama handing out plum contracts to his friends.
