old article: are you trying to trash scott walker. someone who, if he were to run for president, i could actually vote for (versus say romney).

No. Scott Walker trashed himself with his statements on this issue.

ok. i’ll respond, once. first i don’t *trust* any journalist or politician. it’s degrees of distrust for me. that being said, i distrust scott walker far less then any but a handful of politicians on this planet.

imo, there’s not an American politician *in office* outside of Joe Arpaio and lately Ted Cruz who has advanced the conservative agenda more than Scott Walker in the short time i’ve been following politics (the last 5 years). Scott Walker is one of the few conservatives who have actually stood up, walked his conservative talk, stood in the breech, toe to toe with the enemy, represented my views and walked away the victor. and you just want to throw him away?

for instance, some people here *claim* he’s for amnesty. well, i haven’t heard that. has he said flat out that he supports rubio’s bill? if that’s true, then i can no longer support him. i’ve heard him say in a video last year that he’s for the *existing* pathway to citizenship. that’s a pathway my mom used to become US citizen. i’ve got zero problem with legal immigrants. if he says he’d rather focus on beating on dems, ok, his *style* is perhaps less confrontational than mine with the GOPe. frankly, he’s taken the heat. i give him credit for taking that heat; i give him the benefit of experience, especially given how he’s a proven fighter and winner against the dem union thugs who threw everything they had at him.

so no. i’m not throwing Scott Walker under the bus based on what i’ve seen here so far. certainly not for words reported by “the media” when the bulk of his *actions* as a conservative speak so eloquently for him.
