The Only Petition That Matters Now

Just when one might think that Scott Walker has reached his pinnacle in turning Fitzwalkerstan into a theater of the absurd, he comes up with something that makes you realize just how badly you underestimated his absurdity.

A prime example is the way Walker has reacted to the ruling by the Honorable Juan Colas, in which he struck down the unconstitutional union-busting Act 10.

Despite the fact that Judge Colas' decision is based on law and his reasoning his constitutionally sound, or maybe because of these facts, Walker acted like a four year old who got caught doing something naughty.

Instead of just owning up to his misdeed and apologizing, Walker turns around and viciously impugns the reputation of the judge, trying to infer that the judge's decision was based on politics instead of the law:

The people of Wisconsin clearly spoke on June 5th. Now, they are ready to move on. Sadly a liberal activist judge in Dane County wants to go backwards and take away the law making responsibilities of the legislature and the governor. We are confident that the state will ultimately prevail in the appeals process.

As everyone knows, this is pure poppycock.

The judge made his ruling based on the facts of the case, the law and most of all, the Constitution. The only one trying to politicize this case was Walker, who is trying to win over public support against this obviously major blow to his reputation and his agenda.

Undaunted by his own absurdity, Walker then came out over the weekend with a most pathetic fund raiser email in which he doubled down on his nastiness and upped the absurdity to new levels.
