How many times is this "Walker supports ethanol!" crap is going to get posted?

He clearly said the subsidies should be phased out over time.

Yet the beltway conservative media and GOP insiders are promoting this lie to split the conservative base and grease the skids for Jebbers.

I don’t think this will split the base, I think the two of them will wind up as running mates. The only question is, who leads the ticket. Obviously I’d prefer Cruz at the top, the Walker partisans would prefer him at the top. But they aren’t going to go after each other hard because they are going to have an 8 year partnership. I believe.

Zactly.

Like Jeffery Toobin is our “friend”. Hardly. He’s quoting Politico by the second paragraph, already, like they are some bastion of analysis and authority on conservatism.

We can expect to be, each of us, put through the meat slicer for the next two years. The Left saw how we devoured each other over the last primary months that caused the regurgitation of RomneyAnn as our nominee.

...”Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said he would continue the subsidies for now but phase them out once ethanol producers are assured access to markets. “I think eventually you can get to that,” he said. “But you can’t get to that unless you deal with market access.”...

“...Saturday’s forum also was an opportunity for likely contenders to display knowledge of rural issues and connect with Iowa’s farmers. Walker waxed nostalgic about growing up as the son of a Baptist preacher in the small Iowa town of Plainfield, where he said he learned that “farming isn’t just a business, it’s a way of life.”....
