The second casualty of the Republican Presidential campaign is Scott Weaselker, seen here as we first portrayed him as one of Les Beastiables in full delusion-of-grandeur mode.
But Weaselker was so much less. A partial list of his actions as Wisconsin governor that make him unfit as Presidential material includes (h/t Puddytat):
* Union busting
* Taking 18% from the paychecks of all public employees
* Tax breaks for the rich
* WEDC subsidies for the corporate
* Repeal of living wage law
* Says minimum wage is "lame"
* Kicked 80,000 people off Medicaid
* Drug testing for food stamps, etc.
* Defunded Planned Parenthood
* TRAP laws
* Restricted abortions
* Mandatory ultrasounds
* Hates minorities
* Destroyed Wisconsin's economy.
Sayonara, Governor Weaselker. Our condolences, Wisconsin. We're not letting you get rid of him that easily.
Let's make this a participatory diary: I have run out of time for tracking these issues down. So if you know of good sources for these, please add them in the Comments. I'll update as more information comes in.
For serious information on this louse of a governor who would have been a lousier President, please join me below the orange squirming of beasties on the hot seat. As always I also have cute new photos for you at the end of this section so you can "cleanse your palate".
