Is this a communist public workers’ plot? Sorry FOX News, it’s not. Wisconsin Rep. Gov. Scott Walker killed 800 million dollars in federal funding for high speed light rail in order to focus on “roads.” Yes, the Governor of Wisconsin declined $ 800 MILLION for a public transportation project in Wisconsin for “roads.” What uses roads? Cars. What do cars use for fuel? Gasoline. Who is heavily invested in oil? Koch Industries. Mystery solved! Republican Governor Scott Walker declined $800 MILLION of federal funds in order to provide his Koch backers with more “oil” and other energy opportunities. What a way to connect the dots.
Oh and there was a SURPLUS in the Wisconsin budget UNTIL Walker arrived and pushed through $140 Million in NEW spending for special interest groups. This wiped out the 2009-2011 surplus. Huh, I wonder where Koch Industries lands in that package.
Here’s another “dot”–the Budget Repair Bill allows for UNcontested bids for purchase of WI public energy works. Who want this juicy energy cash hog? Koch Industries of course. Why else open a brand spanking new office for an army of Koch Lobbyists in Madison?
So did the public workers’ unions create a budget issue in Wisconsin? No–REPUBLICAN Gov. Scott Walker created it all by himself–and apparently he did it for the right wing tea party playing Koch brothers–David and Charles. Still looking forward to a fun time in California with David Koch, Dictator Walker?
Who will save the serfs? Not Walker and certainly not Koch Industries. Hey, Citgo, you amigos down in Venezeuala got some heating fuel for Cheeseheads? Cause I think they’re gonna need it if Wisconsin becomes WisKochLand. Hola Chavez, want to trade some heating oil for cheese? Go for the Munster…….
Oh folks this is OLD news, it’s everywhere to be found on the web. Connect the dots yourself.

From what I read, Walker wasn’t too much loved in Milwaukee County, and it looks like he is going to run Wisconsin into the ground. They should recall this guy, and send him packing. The Koch Brothers found their Stooge.

Welcome to my blogcasa, Don in Mass. From what I’ve gathered, the Kock Tool will have to do a year’s time in office before he can be “recalled.” But I don’t see why that time period should keep folks from rolling this snowball downhill asap. It could be one very long year for everyong considering how inflexible the Stooge deals with Wisconsin residents. Apparently he’s a tad more open to the likes of Koch, faux or no.
Speaking of Stooges–will three Fitzgeralds qualify “Three”?
