Esquire: We haven't looked in recently on the activities of Scott
Walker, the twice-elected goggle-eyed homunculus hired by Koch Industries to
manage their Midwest subsidiary formerly known as the state of Wisconsin. It

Wake up in a Taco Bell. Sounds like a plan. From WKOW:
Even some of the Republicans in the pet legislature seem to
think this plan is dangerously ill-conceived. Oh, and the $8 billion debt that
this bill is supposed to address? That is not exactly hard to explain, either (jsonline: “Scott
Walker's budget to lower income tax rates, freeze local aid”)
