The left wing media declares jihad on Scott Walker

left wing jihad on walker b

Well over a year ago I wrote a post titled

The man democrats fear the most is already under attack by Obama

Walker has endured not one, but two secret "John Doe" probes into his campaign finances. Scurrilous democrats are utterly desperate to find something- anything- that can derail the Walker Express. They have been trolling for years unable to come with anything that will stick.

It is so rife with desperation that the democrat Nazis were issuing subpoenas to Walker allies in an effort to squeeze them until a judge shut that down.

Prosecutors in the John Doe investigation into spending and fundraising during the raucous Wisconsin recall elections were dealt a major procedural blow Friday, according to sources.

The five-county investigation remains open, but subpoenas issued in the probe to conservative political groups supporting Gov. Scott Walker were quashed, sources familiar with the development said. The ruling — which is sealed — raises First Amendment concerns about the subpoenas.

There is absolutely no question in my mind where this is coming from.

As Walker rises in prominence the left wing media has declared jihad on him. It's no secret that Scott Walker didn't finish college but you are going to hear that theme endlessly from the left over the next two years as if it was some kind of disqualifier. FWIW, here's a list of billionaires who didn't go to college.

Time magazine took a shot at letting people know in 2013 that Walker didn't complete college.

Then came the ugly and wild assertions that Scott Walker was "kicked out" of college. According to Politifact Wisconsin the Wisconsin democrat party website ran this under its banner "The "Essence" of Dirty Tricks: Dropping out at Marquette":

"Scott Walker was kicked out of student elections at Marquette University after masterminding a scheme that destroyed newspapers critical of him. Walker either dropped out or was forced out not long after."

It was scrubbed since to read:

•Scott Walker ceased participation in student elections at Marquette University after masterminding a scheme that destroyed newspapers critical of him.

Because their accusation was a lie.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin scrubbed its website Wednesday of accusations that Gov. Scott Walker was kicked out of Marquette University and student elections there.

The move was in response to a PolitiFact Wisconsin investigation that found no evidence Walker was forced out of either.

In the story published Wednesday, PolitiFact reported that Marquette, with Walker's permission, released a letter that said he left voluntarily in spring 1990 and was in good standing each term. That means no conduct issues, academic or otherwise, blocked his registration.

"While we still stand behind our sources, only Scott Walker can clarify what happened in his time at Marquette University, and we'll afford the governor the respect of taking him at his word on this," Democratic Party chairman Mike Tate told the Journal Sentinel. "Accordingly, we've updated our website."

(emphasis mine)

Daily Kos said Walker was a

"very, very bad man"

The sniveling little cockroaches at Kos weren't content with that. A recent article blares this:

Of course, he has proven to be the biggest threat to institutional liberalism for decades.

Perhaps it would be useful for one real journalist anywhere to expose why Clinton did not finish at Oxford. Kicking him out of the school and the country was probably a good response to the rape of Eileen Wellstone. Prosecution, of course, would have been better.

Is it possible that any fair minded person - republican or democrat - with any critical thinking skills at all doesn't see the media double standard by now?

Of course (no pun intended), if say Walker missed his degree by one credit, and no diploma, he is totally unqualified. If he makes up that one credit, say a phy ed course, why then he has his diploma, and he’s totally qualified. What a bunch of maroons.

FYI - Scott Walker has been vetted more than anyone else, aside from Sarah Palin.

Good God, he’s had to run for Governor how many times? Three?

When liberals decide they have an enemy, they first try to silence him/her.

When that proves impossible, the next step is total destruction. However, the voters mostly saw through the liberal smear machine for what it is, pure character assassination. Maybe that will happen again in 2016.

I would say that any person who really believes a college degree is necessary for a career in politics has a screw loose. Of course, it wouldn't matter if Walker had his degree or not. They would find something else to try and nail him on.

What Democrats have to be careful of his offending millions of their constituents who have no education beyond high school. They are basically saying that if you have no college degree, you are a dope and unqualified to do anything in the public sphere. His next speaking engagement Walker should appear with a large photo of Harry Truman behind him. Let Dems say something about that.

No one can be allowed to stand in the way of the annointment and coronation of Hillary Clinton. The media have sworn a blood oath to make this so.

And if people continue to believe their never ending torrent of lies, it will be so.

"Scott, get in line behind Sarah and Ted."

Yes can he endure as they have and continue to do so; or is there evidence he will attempt to split his loyalties, between the Rino's; the illegals et al. As for me I want to see one who has the strength to constantly and consistently focus on the restoration and preservation of our Constitutional Free Republic. He may well be the right man; I am waiting to see it emerge on the national level.

Someone should ask Herself! if Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, (were he still alive) would be qualified to run for President.

Further questions - "Why is a college degree not outlined as a requirement for eligibility for President in the Constitution? (Have you read the Constitution?) Do you think that should be changed?

What do you believe is more relevant to a potential Presidency: that which you learned up through the age of 22 or what you learned afterward?

“Someone should ask herself...”

What in the world are you talking about? I think you replied to the wrong post.

The Marxists are in power. Its taken them over 100 years to reach this plateau. They are not going to just stand by and let a simple thing like an election undo all that. Stand by for chaos and political warfare unlike anything ever seen in the country before. Hitler, Stalin and all political dictators before and subsequent were willing to resort to anything including murder to stay in control. Be prepared for the worst and you will not be surprised.

Sarah won’t run. Ted will. I wish Sessions would, but he won’t.

I’ve heard that Pence is a worthy conservative.

Walker is ok with me, but 2nd tier as you also have him. Walker, however, just might be that unusual candidate who can get support from both conservatives and the establishment.
