Scott Walker's Spin on the 4th of July...he's using it to divide us!!!

It was always one of Scott Walker's most ridiculous lines ever. Conflating tax day (with representation), with a day we declared our independence from taxation without representation, was always crazy.

But now that Walker's a top tier presidential candidate, the nation is now discovery just how ideologically driven and incompetent this guy really is. Seriously, he set out to divide (and conquer) us on our nation's holiday, the 4th of July? He really did.

Let us rejoice in the glorious reaction to Scott Walker's nasty celebratory tweet against our government. Americans are taking notice, and are a bit more critical than our own state media:

Walker's divisive down-the-rabbit-hole cluelessness about our own countries history isn't an isolated moment in his governorship. 

The following video clip exemplifies Walker's style of an authoritarian government; ignoring and trampling over the minority Democratic Party. Republicans didn't even want to give some of them a chance to vote against Act 10 (Walker's union busting scheme). Thank you State Rep. Gordon Hintz for the passionate embrace of representative government, now under attack. 

One of the final nails in the democratic coffin was the GOP's recent attempt to do away with the open records law, and I might add, the public's right to know. Every Republican voted for this and every Democrat didn't:

The proposal blocks the public from reviewing nearly all records created by lawmakers, state and local officials or their aides, including electronic communications and the drafting files of legislation.

The blowback was unprecedented, forcing all the Republicans and Scott Walker...to become HEROES? Caught destroying our representative democracy, they relented. Here's the WSJ's headline:

Scott Walker, legislative leaders drop open records changes!

Never forget: THEY ALL VOTED TO DO AWAY WITH THE OPEN RECORDS LAW! 

UPDATE: July 5: Yea, the nation noticed:

Though the tweet still stands, some staffers must have decided to clarify things a bit to be less anarchic, more Republican: "The founders did not declare their independence from one big government only to create another."

Walker's condescending tale of those "Ordinary People" we call our Founding Fathers!

Thinking back on my elementary school days, I hate the way I was lied too about the pilgrims and thanksgiving. It was sugar coated history at its worst.

Now we have Scott Walker's amazing sugar coated account of the founding fathers. PolitiFact:

Were the founding fathers 'ordinary people'? In closing a June 20, 2015 speech to the Faith & Freedom Coalition in Washington, D.C, Walker repeated the story, describing how, as a boy, he viewed the founding fathers "like superheroes."

He was awed when, in 2011, he stepped into the building where both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution were debated and signed.

"And I looked at the chairs and I looked at the desks and it dawned on me. These were ordinary people. These were ordinary people who did something extraordinary. You see, they didn’t just risk their political careers. They didn’t just risk their business ventures. These were patriots who risked their lives -- their lives -- for the freedoms we hold dear today."

Walker has many times called the founding fathers ordinary people. And while campaigning, he has emphasized that he himself doesn’t come from wealth or prominence, even bragging that he bought a sweater for a dollar. We thought we’d offer a little history lesson on who the major founding fathers were, and where they came from.

"They weren't ordinary," said Brown University emeritus history professor Gordon Wood, author of "Creation of the American Republic," "Revolutionary Characters: What Made the Founders Different" and other books. "They were the elite of the day, involved in highest levels of the society."
