Scott Walker is a liar.“So what?†you say, “aren’t all politicians liars?†True, but Walker is in a league apart. He lies about so much, even inconsequential things, that it seems almost compulsive. Who was liar of the year with "If you like your health care plan..."?2. Scott Walker is astoundingly corrupt, even by current political standards. He is so corrupt the corruption itself gives him cover, because an objective description of it sounds like a hyperbolic screed, leading to an “Oh, come on, he can’t be as bad as all that†from people who don’t know his history. While a Clinton is your frontrunner. 3. Walker does not tolerate opposition.This applies not only to opposition from other politicians (although it certainly applies to them, too—see the fate of Mike Ellis) but to everyone. Suppression of dissent through intimidation is one of the chief features of the Walker governorship, and a main source of the fear and discord Walker has inflicted on his state. Who is it that won`t talk to media that he doesn`t like?4. Under Walker, Wisconsin literally has become a lawless state.The state has become a playground for the Walker regime and its supporters, and a dangerous place for the rest of us. State agencies, most notably the Departments of Justice, Administration, and Natural Resources are fully under the control of Walker and his minions. Scientists and professionals have been replaced by political cronies who know nothing about the jobs they are supposed to do. I am just speechless

Hopefully you'll share it with any possible GOP voters you know.On a side note, I'm so glad Alternet picked it up! Great work by the Wisconsin Citizens Media Cooperative!

Walker's type are becoming ever more common.Now that the media's primary function is to protect these political miscreants, they can get away with more than ever.It's corruption from sea to shining sea.
