No record found of graphic threat told by Scott Walker in speeches

[lutefisk]

Wisconsin governor, presidential primary candidate, congenital liar, Scott Walker uses this crowd pleaser to rev up the audiences by making himself the victim and to add to his portrayal of those who protested his policies as murderous thugs. Unfortunately for him, sometimes people actually check up on what he says.

In his breakout speech to Iowa conservatives in January, Gov. Scott Walker described death threats he and his family received during massive protests against his administration in 2011, including an especially graphic one targeting his wife, Tonette, which threatened to "gut her like a deer."

The audience gasped, and the story — which Walker first described in his 2013 book — has been widely circulated by the national media.

But while the administration and the state Department of Justice have been able to document other threats against Walker and his family, officials have been unable to produce any record of this particular threat -- although the former head of the police unit guarding the governor said he remembers showing it to him at the time...

In January 2013, the State Journal sought records of all threats received by the governor. The threat against Tonette Walker was not included among the documents released in response to that request.

1. Deep psychosis and sickness in America, that anyone would like this person.

We are a deeply and completely broken society

I blame those on the left almost as much, someone like Walker should be followed around by hundreds of people exposing him for the person he is.

He should not be able to leave his office or home without hundreds of people with signs expressing what a pile of shit he is.

These terrible people have to be shamed, daily

3. He can't appear in public in Wisconsin, he would be shamed anywhere he went

I am not aware of any truly "public" appearances by Walker since being sworn in in 2011. He travels in the shadows... and the company of billionaires, Grover Norquist, and the like.

He tries to turn the protests around and make himself out to be a hero, but people should really ask why 150,000 people gathered in the frigid snowy Wisconsin winter to protest him at all? If he becomes President, will we have 10 million people protesting him?

4. He was voted in three times in two elections

Not just Walker that's fucked up.

5. This what you get when the message is tightly controlled and

images and optics are packaged and the Media goes lame lazy.

6. True, but some of us get it

And the future of America as anything-remotely-resembling-a-democracy depends on more people getting it.

Reining in the media would help a lot, but we need to make our friends and neighbors smarter (and in a hurry).

The question being: is there any way at all to do that?

7. Lot of faith in the new Social Media,

noticed blurbs about the Democrats getting it. Hope this is true. Sad to say,first impressions do have a lasting impact,in that we have to find the real truth. As a born and raised Wisconsinite,this Walker person really rubs us raw. Went to College with many of his fellow Rethug Nut Jobs,and what they are up to and whom they represent does not surprise me.
