GOP Votes against Their Own Agenda to Defeat Democrats this Fall.

Republicans have tried and failed to make sense out of many of their proposals or justify their purely ideological plans for America. It seems something always comes along to contradict their stories or in some way forces them to reverse their position. This is always followed by the media accepted excuse, “That’s not what I meant” or “I never said that.”

Such is the case of Republican governor hopeful Scott Walker. But Walker is Wisconsin’s own example of the hypocrisy and win-at-all-cost GOP agenda talked about here by Rachel Maddow.



Now to our own hypocrite, Scott Walker, from Eye on Wisconsin:

New Visit from Prez Brings New Flip-Flop from Walker? Just a few weeks ago
when the President was in town, Scott Walker ran an ad and held an event calling
for the shifting of money designated for high speed rail to roads instead (even
though he knows that this is not possible). On Monday the President came back to
town to announce a $50 billion additional investment in our country's
infrastructure. This includes additional funding for roads. In fact the initial
spending would involve improving 150,000 miles of roads.

In typical knee-jerk fashion, Walker attacked the president for his new proposed investment in our nation's infrastructure. So let me see if I am understanding this
correctly...

During the President's August visit Walker said, "I'd rather take that (federal) money and fix Wisconsin's crumbling roads and bridges."

But during the President's visit on Monday (only weeks later) Walker attacked the President because he wants to invest in the fixing of Wisconsin's roads and bridges?

So does he want a federal investment in our local roads and bridges or doesn't he?
