Everyday one of them are making a fool out of themselves. The flavor of this week is "The Donald". One wonders if he gets elected will he make everyone call him "The Donald", President of the United States?

Stayed tuned!!

Scott Walker, aka the kock brother's bitch, doesn't even have the support of his rethuglicons in his own state!


Walker's budget passes, though most GOP opposition he's seen
Quote:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker hoped a larger Republican majority in his state's Legislature would lead to the quick and smooth passage of a budget, a perfect kickoff to his all-but-announced campaign for president.

Quote:
Instead, the spending plan landed on his desk a week late bearing the most 'no' votes his budgets have ever received from GOP lawmakers, who derided his original $73 billion spending plan as "crap."

Scott Walker...the new richard, tricky dick, nixon

Gov. Walker and Wisconsin GOP retreat on open records limits
Quote:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — In a sudden reversal amid a stinging backlash, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and GOP legislative leaders said they agreed Saturday to completely remove a part of the proposed state budget that would severely roll back open records laws.

Rafael Edward Cruz; December 22, 1970 (age 44); Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Ted Cruz Caught Buying His Own Books To Reach NYT Bestseller List
Quote:
Yet in the past few years there have been several controversies over authors who essentially bought their way onto best-seller lists by paying services to buy their books in bulk. When asked to elaborate on why Cruz's book was rejected, Murphy told Politico, "In the case of this book, the overwhelming preponderance of evidence was that sales were limited to strategic bulk purchases."

Classy guy...Hey arc why no outrage about a birth certificate on this guy???

All Anyone Should Need to Know About Scott Walker
Quote:
In America today, corporate profits are a larger portion of the GDP of the United States than at any time in our nation's history.

In America today, the proportion of GDP that goes to workers' wages is lower than it has been in living memory.

In this situation, this is what Scott Walker has done in Wisconsin: he has cut taxes for the rich corporations, and waged war against his state's workers.


More to come on this Nixon wannabee....

#thanksobama #obamasamerica

Ah the irony, six years in and still trying to blame other for conditions in Obama's America.

Speaking of Scott Walker let's compare WI under Walker and MN under Dlyton since both took office and see what is working. Both states switched leadership and legislatures then. In MN Dayton inherited $5.9 billion deficit

(Walker half that) MN had a $1.9 billion surplus going into new budget, Walker a
similar deficit. Since Feb 2010 MN added 197,000 private sector jobs (with a tax increase on higher incomes and an increase in minimum wage(supposedly real job killers) WI 167,000.Walker promised to add 250,000 in his first term. WI unemployment rate 19% higher than MN

MN made up payments to k-12 schools of over a billion dollars (payments that
republicans had delayed) and increased educational spending at all levels including
financing all day kindergarten. Walker cutting funding for education including proposing
$300 million cut to U of WI and asking them to freeze tuition on top of it. Last thing
republicans want is an educated electorate.

Only effect of RTW is RTW for less pay and benefits. Western WI construction business already announced expansion in MN because of RTW (would cost him money in long run because inability to hire qualified workers, unions do a lot of training). Trickle down has never worked. Quite evident what is working and what is not.
Another thing Republicans here in MN keep saying our taxes drive business away. MN has jumped up to 9th on Forbes rankings of best states to do business in while WI is 32nd. Forbes also ranked MN 7th in economic climate, and 2nd in quality of life. CNBC just ranked MN the top state for business. 2014 job growth numbers shows WI ranking 40th. WI 1.51% vs national average of 2.6%

During Walker's first term private sector job growth was 5.7% vs 9.3%. In a recent ranking of loss of middle class WI had lost a higher percentage of the middle class than any other state.

Trump wants money from Mideast countries supported by US
Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is outlining a foreign policy in which the United States would put ground troops in the fight against Islamic State militants and demand money from Middle East countries supported by the U.S.

Hilarious! What is going to do when they say FU we ain't paying...foreclose on them? Maybe they could claim bankruptcy like he has 4 times!
Quote:
" the billionaire businessman and former reality TV star says he would consider shutting down the federal government over funding for Planned Parenthood.

BUT....
Quote:
He says he isn't sure whether he has donated money to the organization in the past

Quote:
On defeating Islamic State militants, Trump said the key is to take away their wealth by taking back the oil fields under their control in Iraq. Told by "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd that such a move could require ground troops, Trump responded, "That's OK."

Another chicken hawk...

Trump Deletes 9/11 Tweet
Quote:
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump appeared to have quietly deleted a two-year-old tweet from September 11, 2013.

Quote:
"I would like to extend my best wishes to all, even the haters and losers, on this special date, September 11th," Trump wrote two years ago Friday.

GOP tax proposals tilt to rich despite populist rhetoric
Quote:
DENVER (AP) -- Jeb Bush went to Detroit and talked about leveling the playing field. Marco Rubio wrote a book about helping the working class. Rand Paul is promising to expand the Republican Party beyond its traditional base.

Yet all three Republican presidential candidates have offered tax proposals that would, for reasons such as nomination politics and tax rate realities, benefit overwhelmingly the wealthiest.

http://news.yahoo.com/gop-tax-proposals-tilt-rich-115915494.html

Surprise...Surprise...

AP Exclusive: GOP's Walker proposes vast union restrictions
Quote:
Experts were taken aback by the scope of Walker's proposals, which seek to undo decades of law and would gut the landmark National Relations Labor Act — adopted in 1935 and signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the height of the Great Depression.

"I've never seen anything like this," said Ann Hodges, a professor at the University of Richmond who has studied labor law for more than 40 years. "This will take the breath away from anyone who's worked in labor relations for any length of time. ... It's pretty draconian."

http://news.yahoo.com/ap-exclusive-gops-walker-proposes-vast-union-restrictions-040129104--finance.html

Another shocker...lol
