Google "illegal campaigning on taxpayers time". That might help you.
Six of his staff members were convicted of 15 felony indictments--embezzlement, money laundering and staffers mixing state business with campaign efforts.
This was done while Scotty was Milwaukee County Executive and he was running for governor.
He denies any knowledge of what his staff members were doing.
This gives me a warm fuzzing feeling to think he would make a great president. Or is this hearsay also?
Â
Source, please?
Is this what you are referring to?:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/scott-walker-eyeing-2016-fac...
All I can determine was that Walker was not implicated. I'm pretty sure he was thoroughly investigated, however.
This isn't news as far as I can tell. Take a look at former Clinton and Obama associates who are felons. |

Dale voted against because he thought everybody should be included and not have the law officers excluded. The reason law officers were not included--the Fitzgerald brother's dad was in charge of the State Patrol. Didn't want to hurt their daddy's benefits. Another example to show that you really don't know Wisconsin politics.Â
I must confess I am impressed with your encyclopedic knowledge of rumors, innuendo, and heresay......not so much in terms of facts. The only fact I see coming from you is the fact that you lied. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | If you want to talk about associates of politicians who were convicted felons, here's a nice tidy list of "Clinton Convicts" for you:

I just scanned it, but I do recognize quite a few names. |

Location: Wisconsin | Pick up the Wisconsin State Journal or Milwaukee Sentinal. There were many articles on Scotty when all of this happened. I find it interesting when you are wrong, you say I lie. Talk to anybody from Wisconsin. It is very well known about about his staff members being convicted. It was also a hot topic about the unions. Dale was very specific as to why he voted no. It should be all or nothing.
It seems you are having an issue with Scotty being kicked out of Marquette. Do you have any proof that this is a lie? I want to see documentation. All you have is hearsay. |

Location: Displaced Iowegian | pepsi - 2015-07-20 2:49 PM Why is it hearsay? Dale's voting record showed he voted against Scotty. When Dale was interviewed, he explained why he voted against Scotty.
Just because someone has a different view--a person who actually has firsthand knowledge--you get a little defensive.
I am interested to hear what you think about Scotty's employee's getting convicted? Do you think it was all made up about his personal campaign computer being setup and his staff working on his campaign during work time? Since you are so informed about Scotty and I am not, I would like to hear what you have to say?
I am sorry that I asked for FACTS......you are the one getting defensive. You started with a lie and have continued to post.....but I don't SEE any facts.... I prefer to deal in FACTS. I will readily admit that I do not know a lot about Mr. Walker but my voting won't be tied to personal opinions or inuendos (yours OR Dale's). |

Location: Displaced Iowegian | pepsi - 2015-07-20 12:34 PM If you like him so much, come to Wisconsin--the land of low paying jobs and high taxes. He is backed by the Koch brothers and will say whatever they pay him to say. He was kicked out of Marquette University for cheating and was a poor student in high school (per one of his classmates). Yes, he is one of a kind. Here is proof that what you posted was a lie.........and you can find this information in several places......
With that in mind, we asked Walker if he would allow Marquette to comment on his academic and conduct record. He did.
"Gov. Scott Walker was a student at Marquette from fall of 1986 until spring 1990 and was a senior in good standing when he voluntarily withdrew from Marquette," the university said in a statement.
That means that no conduct issues, academic or otherwise, blocked Walker from continuing in school at the time of his departure, MU spokesman Brian Dorrington told us in early December 2013.
When we asked Dorrington whether any conduct issues were on Walker’s earlier school record, he said Walker would have to permit release of that information. Walker did so in response to our request.
"Governor Walker was in good standing each term while he was enrolled at Marquette University and when he left Marquette University," Associate Vice Provost Anne Deahl said in a letter. "Governor Walker was not expelled or suspended from the university at any time."

If you had read the attachment that Hotbear provided you would have answered your own question. The answer is he was in good standing at Marquette and not kicked out as per Marquette. Again nothing but HOGWASH!!!! |

Location: Wisconsin | Have you ever heard of sarcasm? The joke is that whenever Koch brothers gives him orders, Scotty Walker barks.
I still need proof about Marquette. I have not seen the letter. Do you have a copy? Give me a break. Maybe he was asked to leave. Maybe he wasn't. Do you know what his grade point average was? Do you have proof? He has a reputation of being a poor student. Maybe you don't think that is important in a leader. I happen to think it is. I am entitled to my opinion.
Also, what are your thoughts on his staff members convictions? Is this hearsay? Do you really think he was not aware of what his staff members were doing on the tax payers dime? Do you think this would make him a good leader?
Also, what about my taxes? Is that hearsay? Do you know more about what I pay in taxes in Wisconsin?
I don't know why you guys are getting all worked up about someone sharing their experience of Scott Walker as governor. Am I suppose to tell you he is great--when I know in fact he is not. There are plenty of Republican candidates to pick from. I am just stating my opinion that Scott Walker is not a good person. If you don't agree, that is fine. You don't have to be insulting. However, that seems to be the mindset of a few on this board. |

Really? Get real......do you REALLY think that the officials of that university would "allow" their names to be printed ANY WHERE, if it wasn't true? |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Pepsi, you started out on the wrong foot when you lied. It's perfectly understandable to post things that are inaccurate in this day and age, when factual reliable information is hard to come by, but you insist that WE prove Walker was not kicked out of Marquette. Norma and I have posted some information and the sources of that information is clear. You insist on defending your lie. That puts your credibility in the crapper. Even your opinion is not worth very much. If an honest person expresses his/ her opinion, I listen and take note. If a liar gives an opinion, it isn't worth a fried fart to me. |

Location: Wisconsin | Of course he left in good standing--we know everything done in the offices at universities and in politics is always truthful.
We also know that Scott had no idea that his staff members were running his campaign during office time.
Give me a break. |

Location: Wisconsin | Sorry Bear. I don't buy it from you. I really have no respect for you as a person or as a doctor. To be perfectly honest, if I had you as a doctor, I would run out of the room. You are too mean spirited and opinionated to be a good doctor in my opinion.
I know you think it is hearsay, but here in Wisconsin there are a lot of rumors about why he left Marquette. Sometimes, there is a a hint of truth in rumors especially with his reputation as a student.
He has put Wisconsin in the crapper. He would do the same thing to this country. But hey, if you think he is great, come live here & see how great it really is. |
