Walker Claims Recall Petition Circulators Are Being Paid...your "assertion" Scott?

[Ellipsis]

MADISON, Wis. -- Gov. Scott Walker has been repeating a claim lately that he believes organizers will force a recall election because some recall petition circulators are being paid. The groups behind the Walker recall effort said people aren't being paid to circulate recall petitions.

"I've assumed all along that between activists and paid circulators, if they paid enough people they'd ultimately be able to get that number," said Walker in an interview.

WISC-TV followed up with the governor, to ask if he had proof of any recall circulators being brought in from out of out of state or paid to gather signatures.

"I haven't talked to any of the circulators, not at all," said Walker. "My assertion was that if they did what they did in Ohio, which was they paid circulators along with activists and they got close to a million there in a state about twice our size, if they do that, they'd be more than likely to get enough to get on the ballot."

"My assertion" ...what a "Kochroach."

He just doesn't get the whole deceiving the public thing. The recall is not, as the MSM portrays it, as being about collective bargaining.

It's about deception.

It's about trying to jam through a budget in three days with a no bid sales proposal of power plants.

It's about fucking with the rules of law to fill the pockets of his cronies.

It's about NOT representing his constituency but following ground rules laid down by ALEC.

It's about LYING to the public under the pretense of balancing a budget.

It's about raping the states natural resources for the fast buck.

It's about giving "oral sex" to the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute Inc., www.wpri.org, the Wisconsin Manufacturers Association, the State Chamber of Commerce and the Wisconsin Council of Safety. www.wmc.org.

...and the people of this state have had enough.

3. I wonder where he got the idea that recall petition circulators are being paid?

Oh I bet I know, is that the way you did it when your helped recall the Milwaukee county commisioner so you could have his job?

4. Nope, Scotty, we're doing it because we really really can't stand you.

And as much as I need the money right now, I would even pay to collect petition signatures to recall your sorry ass.

6. Demand PROOF that they're being paid ...

and if he demands that they show proof they aren't being paid ...

demand he prove he's NOT being paid by Koch, etc.

Let him try to disprove a negative ...

7. This is the second time I've seen a headline being asumptive regardless of fact...

as a basis of a news story.

Just throw it out there like spaghetti on the wall and see if it sticks.
