Chris Christie isn’t the only GOP governor whose presidential aspirations are imploding. A document dump has revealed more criminal behavior by Scott Walker’s aides, some of whom are already serving prison sentences.

Hmmm…Mcdonalds for lunch and Burger King for dinner I think.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Here’s another glimpse of how Republican sanctimony works. Six of Gov. Scott Walker’s former aides have been convicted of felonies in connection with their political work for Walker; meanwhile, Walker fired a perfectly competent county doctor because she had once been a thong model.

Roger Rabbit Commentary: I wonder what the real reason he fired her was? Maybe his wife caught him looking at her? Just wonderin’ …
(Remember that dentist who fired an assistant because she was too good looking, and he had a jealous wife?)
Romney wasn’t a great candidate… establishment failure like McCain in 2008 spews:
Oh my… Our nation is in great peril. When is that Kenyan, Muslim socialist going to show “leadership” about out of control entitlement spending?
“This paper quantifies the welfare implications of the U.S. Social Security program during the Great Recession…Taken as a whole, our results indicate that the U.S. Social Security program is particularly effective at providing insurance against business cycle episodes like the Great Recession.”

Can’t the muslim, socialist Kenyan see what kind of effect his policies have on THE job creators?
No Time for Fascists spews:
Income Inequality.
Nobody is arguing that everyone be paid exactly the same any more than anyone is arguing that one man should have all wealth in the country and everyone else is broke.
Both extremes are toxic and dangerous.
Just had to get that off my chest.

Before the data dump Walker was the RETHUG BILLIONAIRES next pick for POTUS after Christie imploded. Now he’ll be lucky to stay out of jail, let alone be reelected for governor again.

Philadelphia’s ultimate cheap labor employer has agreed to pay $8.5 million to 1,100 employees and former employees. This guy even pocketed the waitresses’ tips.

I saw on the news last night that Mcdonalds won’t appose the minimum wage increase.
Also, a small store owner stated she had decided to support the increase. Not for financial reasons, because she thought she would take a hit, but for moral reasons, because she thought it the right thing to do.
Ekim spews:
@12,
May he rest in peace. My hat is off to him.
Nope spews:
No one should be making a career out of flipping burgers, no one should expect to make a family supporting living out of flipping burgers…if your trying to do either of these things, your fucking up in the game of life.

Michelle Bachmann said America isn’t ready for a woman president. I agree America isn’t ready for a Republican woman president. President Palin? President Bachmann? Are you kidding?
But President H. Clinton is a different matter. Even John McCain thinks she’d win.
