No degree, little experience pay off big. Scott Walker gives gov't. job to lobbyist's kid.

When you turn over the tables of the moneychangers, you darn well better make sure you’re sinless.

[_Jim]

In other words, Walker's lackeys were caught red-handed.

Do you happen to know something about this situation that hasn't been reported?

It may be a little early calling anyone a 'lackey', the way it looks, Walker (or an air) reviewed the situation and straightened things out ... no need to create strawman arguments yet ...

Yet another outbreak of this “birther” nonsense? You DO realize it’s a matter of easily verifiable record that Obama graduated from Harvard law School and was editor of the Law Review and that the ABA requires all entrants to any a credited law school to prove they have a 4-year undergraduate degree?

Not True:

ABA Admission Requirements:

Standard 502. EDUCATIONAL REQUIREMENTS
(a) A law school shall require for admission to its J.D. degree program a bachelor’s degree, or successful completion of three-fourths of the work acceptable for a bachelor’s degree, from an institution that is accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the Department of Education.
(b) In an extraordinary case, a law school may admit to its J.D. degree program an applicant who does not possess the educational requirements of subsection (a) if the applicant’s experience ability, and other characteristics clearly show an aptitude for the study of law. The admitting officer shall sign and place in the admittee’s file a statement of the considerations that led to the decision to admit the applicant.

.

What could be a more extraordinary case than a poor orphaned black kid from Indonesia who took a lot of courses at college, but because of extraordinary circumstances was unable to complete the degree program.

BTW, has anyone ever seen his undergraduate degree from Columbia? A lot of websites talk about it, but I can't seem to find a listing of what year he graduated, nor is there a list anywhere on the planet of what courses he completed before entering Law School.

Perhaps you can fill us all in on that?

For the love of holy hell could we PLEASE concentrate on the multitude of REAL sins Obama’s committed in office instead of repeating easily discredited nonsense that makes all us conservatives look like paranoid cranks?

SURELY we can walk and chew gum at the same time?

I’d like to have a look at the boy genius transcripts and hold them up for ridicule the way they did with President Bush. And I’d also like to hold up the long form birth certificate to see what he’s hiding there. If you DONT want to get into it then you can serve by pointing out all of obamas other numerous weaknesses.

And dont worry, the liberals have plenty of derision to go around. Once they stop throwing monkey excrement at the birthers, they will come after YOU.

Conservatives aren't immune from hiring people or promoting projects to help their supporters. I like Duncan Hunter, Sr. but he and Duke Cunningham worked tirelessly to keep the DP-2, a Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft, alive even though DOD was trying to kill it and no branch of the service wanted it. The DP-2 was designed by DuPont Aerospace, a major contributor to Hunter and Cunningham.

The Won wasn’t editor of the law review, he was given an AA post of president.

Screw you, Troll

Forget strawmen. We have Pollyannas of your ilk in abundance.

[Piranha]

Great line. May I take it as my tagline?

[gwilhelm56]

Walker did not give the job to some “Moderate” Ragheaded Babyeffing mooselim.

[muawiyah]

Sounds more like a Democrat ~ but I’ve seen this sort of thing happen. Richard Nixon got into office and took all of Bryce Harlow’s younger friends and put them in great jobs in various federal agencies.

[in the wind]

Lets see here, I’m 27, a couple o DUI convictions, no college degree, not much in the way of work experience and a rich daddy lobbyist. The only way this kid could get a 60 G a year job is government cronyism. Whatever happened to earning what we get?

[Jean S]

Wow, you are awesome! Thanks for finding this tidbit from jsonline! I wish I had never voted for Scott Walker.

[yldstrk]

Didn’t take Scott long to learn how the game is played.

[newzjunkey]

In January, he became bureau director of board services, a position that paid $62,728 a year.

That's still a ridiculous salary.

[USMA '71]

Well played P-Marlowe. Thanks for the well-reasoned, fact-based reply.

[yldstrk]

Look pro bono publico

If Obama can fake his way into the Presidency, he can fake his way into a liberal law school like Hahvud.

Use your legal skills.

[yldstrk]

Pro bono publico is probably a Legal Aid lawyer, so s/he is probably also a Democrat.

[dangus]

>> One Walker critic isn’t buying it. <<

Yeah, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Too bad they didn’t tell us, say, what his work history is, so we could decide for ourselves if its unreasonable.
