Your #WalkerDocs Week in Review Listicle www.bluecheddar.net/?p=37836
On Wednesday a trove of damning documents and emails from Guv Scott Walker's former Milwaukee County office were released to public eyes. These documents were obtained under subpoena as part of a John Doe investigation into Scott Walker and those gov't employees that he directly supervised.
Here are the bullet points pulled together for flickr peeps:
1) Crazy People - "Nobody cares about crazy people"
2) Reince and Repeat - Reince Priebus is going to have a harder time with the Tea Party after they see this one
3) Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker’s then-chief of staff, Thomas Nardelli is a shallow bigot. A real king of the assholes.
4) Keywords: ALEC, blowjobs, prostitution
5) Team Scott Walker Laughs and LAAAAAAGHS at Poor People
6) County Time, Shmounty Time - Their campaign time was at the public's expense.
Not a good look especially for the we-want-to-shrink-government sort.
7) Walker Called the Shots - Nope. Wasn't just some rogue staffers doing their own thing.
8) That's Not Funty - Oh my. Such language they use.
9) Question: How do you spell destruction of evidence? Answer: A software program called ‘Delete Files Permanently’
10) “Get rid of the MD asap” I don't want to explain this one. Involves a thong though.
11) “If you come this Saturday I can show you how to cage” - This is about excluding people from the right to vote. What integrity.
12) #WalkerDocs entered public testimony on Friday
And so much more.
(Yeah. Now I see the "that's" typo. Argh. Got no time to fix this.)
Given what Chris Wallace *could* have asked Walker this was soft.
And yet, given that this was on FOX News, I didn't expect even this much confrontation.
If you'd like to see the video segment, here it is. The grilling starts fairly soon after the video starts.:

Incidentally, that quote was not what was flashed on the screen. They chose different quotes.
One was a quote about how Nardelli and Walker coordinated Walker's public employee staff with campaign staff. He had his Milwaukee County underlings doing his campaign work on the taxpayer's dime. He was, in 2010, the Milwaukee County Executive and he was also running a campaign for Governor of Wisconsin.
Quote: "...to review events ofthe day or of a previous or future day, so we can better coordinate sound, timely responses." - Tom Nardelli, then Chief of Staff
And
a quote that comes just before what I pulled for this little texty picture:
Quote: "I use this private account quite a bit to communicate with SKW and Nardelli"
I think it's worth noting and remembering that former Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Scott Jensen was convicted of a felony for using his taxpayer-paid staff to campaign for him in what is commonly referred to as "The Caucus Scandal" - - which I hope tells you that at least IN THEORY Wisconsinites don't want their politicians campaigning using tax money!
