In case you’re interested in learning about Scott Walker, here are 3 places to look.

And I've been on a thread where Cruz was lied about and attacked over things he never said or did.
So, what is your point?
Are we looking to support the Most CONSERVATIVE candidate or not?
I know that I am, me myself and I, with my vote.
Good. Go for it.
Nothing like a little bias in the article. I’ve long felt that merging all healthcare into one system such as Obamacare is wrong. To me, it would have been far cheaper to have private and public systems operating simultaneously. For the private system, tort reform and competition across state lines would be required. For the public system, enrollment for those not covered by private systems would be mandatory, augmented by a general sales tax to assist those lacking the means. Many city and counties have long run health clinics, thus ensuring that treatment is not denied. Put these clinics on a state basis and I suspect all citizens would receive reasonable care as opposed to the current rationale that all citizens are “entitled” to equal care, regardless of what premium is paid.
Our current system is robbing Peter to pay Paul’s premium. By increasing rates for everyone, the elderly in particular are being forced to support the young. My wife, involuntarily retired and not eligible for Medicare, was forced into a compliant healthcare plan that has cost us over $15,000 for the past two years (additional premiums plus higher deductibles). The good news is that she is covered for birth control despite having her tubes tied over 30 years ago and now being well above normal child bearing age. Because of the higher premiums, she will now have to draw her Social Security retirement early, thereby penalizing her income for the remainder of her life. Given the poor jobs being created by the economy, I foresee even higher rates on anyone having assets. In order to implement socialism, Obama has divided us by age, race, and income. I pray daily that Americans will wake up and oppose the power grabbing crooks in government.
I have to say, for someone who's been around as long as you VRWC, I'm surprised to see you use the same tactics that liberals use--shouting down your opponents with name-calling, while providing no substantial argument otherwise.
It's shameful.
It's a shame to hear him tap-dance around whether or not marijuana policy should be left to the states.
Makes sense. Walker-bots. Thanks for the insight!
No. Thou shalt not steal. Taking money from productive people to subsidize parasites is stealing. To steal for people who do not even want to have Obamacare is both stupid and evil.
Works for me. Never should have become law in the first place, so no way in Hades we should do anything to "fix" it. Here's hoping Walker continues to answer his critics in a straightforward, businesslike manner.
bttt!
Another PATHETIC Walkerbot. Taking flak, over the target. Read FR’s mission statement numbskull.
Shaddup, worthless Walkerbot. I ain’t here to be liked nor convince you of anything.
