Topic is Walker's announcement that he will use the foreclose settlement not to help homeowners who were defrauded, but to balance the State's budget, helping to close the hole that was created by the tax breaks he gave to corporations.

Walker's hypocrisy is fully exposed.

Good to see Tom getting some exposure. He may end up being our Democratic candidate for Governor. Remember, Tom lost to Walker by only the tiniest of margins in 2010.

1. Very good interview.

I watched it last night and was really impressed with how everyone handled it. Though maybe that was just because I was so effing disgusted with what Walker was doing.

HTF do you steal from families who have already been screwed over by the banks and sleep at night? How do you screw over communities who have been hurt by the banks and think you're going to get elected dogcatcher?

3. Have the Republican lapdog media in this state

taken any notice? I could see the Cap Times covering it, maybe MJ-S, but wonder if it'll make it past p. 32 of the Eau Claire paper, which has only 28 pages. I'd expect some kind of puff piece from them about how Walker has managed to balance the budget, without noting where the funds came from.

5. No doubt.

The Journal Sentinel endorsed the idiot, but at least they know good news when they see it.

2. Party Of Rapists

If you are a Republican voter or politician cultural rape, employment rape, economic rape is your normal way of life. They are more than crooks, thieves and liars. They are rapists and liars.

4. I agree - it was great to see Mayor Barrett get some exposure...

He did a great job pointing out the big lie... Walker saying two days earlier that he had a balanced budget and now he says he doesn't....

Lena Taylor's district has been hit hard time and time again my Walker's policies to keep money from her district when he was in the state legislature, County Executive, and now Governor.
