His shift is that he prefers a phase out of the program over time. If the subsidies are to stop, they would have to be phased out. Farmers have made business decisions based on current law.
As far as the other accusation..... He did oppose legislation back in 2006 that would have mandated all mid grad gasoline in Wisconsin to include 10% ethanol. That legislation never passed, and he wasn’t governor anyway.
As today’s leader towards the repubs selection for the 2016 POTUS candidate, Walker will be, and has already been selected as the “numero uno” target to discredit anyway possible. It would appear that the writer is representing someone other than himself if indeed he is unemployed at the present time.
Thank you for highlighting the obvious attempt by rivals to discredit Walker. You are correct—What was he to do? Tell the Iowans that he was going to rip their guts out from day one? I thought his response was measured and accurate. I hope that everyone here will stop and ask the questions “who is behind these comments, what context are they being extracted from, and who the hell is saying this. I personally have never heard of Craig Robinson, and what gives him special standing that we should listen to????? They way to sort out misinformation is to listen to what is being said and assume that it is either a lie, or being distorted, and who is being trotted out as “someone worth listening to?”
