Grass Roots! Milwaukee Urinal / Sentinel bloggers demand investigation of Fitzgerald family.
Damn, the internet is one useful tool for democracy. No wonder the Republicans are trying to control it.

A grass-roots call for an investigation of the Fitzgerald family is emerging on the Urinal/Sentinel blogs this morning. A sample:

prounion85 - Journal : Do a story on the hiring of old man Fitz. Everyone wants you to get to the bottom of this
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I second that! In fact, I'd even 'double dare' them to do it! But I"m sure that one is locked up tighter than Kreepfish's office~does she actually even DO anything?

<end snip>

Lots of thumbs up for these, and other posts calling for an investigation of the Fitzgeralds.

If you're not aware, Scott Fitzgerald is the leader of the state senate and his brother Jeff Fitzgerald is the speaker of the state house. They are two of Walker's closest cronies. Walker even named their father Stephen as head of the State Patrol.

Here's more on their little cabal...
