what total B.S. The call shows he was really not close to Koch at all. What really astonished me is how fast the nellies on this board get taken in with each smear.

And yet AFL-CIO head thug Trumpka is on the phone with Obama almost every day and visits the White House once a week.

Liberalism = hypocrisy.

If he were a Democrat, it would be considered an illegal wiretap, since he did not give his permission to be recorded.

But what exactly did he say that you consider to be illegal?

BTW, are you an attorney, or do you you just impersonate one on the Interwebs?

Oh cr*p, what about the caller who taped. Is taping a conversation without the other persons knowledge against the law in WI?

Check out the breathless press release the OP linked.

Even the liberal puke at “Public Campaign Action Fund” acknowledges that Gov. Walker’s supposed misdeed is PURELY HYPOTHETICAL!

Nonsense. Walker will be toast if he caves on what he was elected to do. The libs are up to their usual games and distractions because this time it is possible that they are going down. Going down hard!

Is this really any surprise? These people will spread all sorts of lies. Look at what they’ve done to Sarah Palin. We need people who will stand up to these thugs and we need to support them.

How can he be in trouble for colluding with Koch, when it wasn’t Koch?

This organization claims to be non-partisan, but is run by leftist operatives and funded by leftists.

Why hasn’t Obama been scrutinized by any watchdogs?

A person looking for campaign toomfoolery could have a heyday.
