No smoking gun for walker personally so far, but lots of nastiness and sleaze ...

“No one cares about crazy people,” aide Kelly Rindfleisch wrote in response to an email about criticism Walker was facing from his political opponent, Tom Barrett, over problems at Milwaukee County’s mental health center.

...

Davis campaign aide Emily Loe emailed Rindfleisch to tell her that a municipal judge from Pewaukee, Gary Glojek, wanted to stage a fundraising event, but that “since he’s a judge” his wife’s name “goes on everything.” The state judicial code forbids judges from “personally” soliciting campaign contributions.

Rindfleisch emailed Gilkes about jokingly wanting to take out Mike Tate, chairman of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.

“How do you not blow a nut with all the lies that the democrats put out,” Rindfleisch wrote. “It makes me wanna get Villa’s uncle mike to make mike tate disappear.”

2. This smoking gun shit does annoy me

Everyone knows that all these governors knew and know exactly what is being done on their behalf because they gave the orders. Sure they are sleazy enough and slick enough to devise ways to keep themselves out of the name calling.

Just study the history of all these men and we damned well know they organized most of this criminality with funding and support from the ReTHUG party hierarchy.

3. We keep learning more and more about what a sleaze Walker is, but I want

something that will impeach him, or at least render him harmless.
