Said "a Wisconsin legal expert" who with "proximity" to "the Democrat-driven secret investigation of state conservatives."
“What are [these investigators] going to do if they truly don’t have anything to go on? What is the next move in the investigation?” the source asked. “What are they going to try to do to substantiate this going forward? This judge [Gregory A. Peterson] slapped them down. He’s going to want to know what these guys have got next.”...The unnamed expert suggests that Judge Kluka "basically rubber stamped whatever it is (the prosecution) wanted."
[Judge Barbara A.] Kluka, the former presiding judge in the John Doe probe, suddenly recused herself from the investigation, but only after she approved the subpoenas... “What kind of supervision was Judge Kluka exercising when this judge (Peterson) has just thrown out” several subpoenas, “particularly in light of the fact that she only put in for one day’s worth of work?” the legal expert asked.

If your state votes for judges, the ad already wrote itself.
If these people have been hounded out of jobs/retirement funds/money by a Judicial Witch-hunt (at least they didn't get sent to prison) then perhaps the Legislature should step in and offer compensation as was done for Georgia Thompson.
As it is, it seems like the Judiciary is being used to harass. At least it's "just" the people of Milwaukee paying for it.
Sounds like Kluka's Kangaroo Kourt.
Dems will do anything to win. Win at all cost. Maybe someone needs to pay for this charade.
Well, you know, democracy is only a positive good in and of itself to conservatives. To the liberal, democracy is merely a tool.
It may be a good tool, a tool they like, the tool of first resort, but it's only a tool. If it doesn't get them what they want, there are other tools.
I'm sorry. My only window into Wisconsin politics is this blog, but.......
Are these the indictments that Garage insisted were forthcoming??
Garage, hoisted on his own petard, again.

No, that one was resolved. This is a new one, ala Russ Feingold, "it's not over until we win". That is why most people have kept their "We Stand with Scott Walker" yard signs and have them hanging in their garages. For the next time.
No, that one was resolved.
Yes, resolved. Only six convictions!
Christie must be wondering how Walker does it.
"To the liberal, democracy is merely a tool."
"To the liberal, democracy is merely [an impediment]."
There. Fixed.
Thank you.

Actually, conservatives know that this country was founded as a republic for a reason. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb debating what to eat for dinner. Freedom, yes. Democracy, no.

Two years, and millions of dollars. Of the six convictions, only three for people connected to Walker, although none of their actions were connected to Walker.
None. Nada, Zero. Zilch.
That's how he does it douchebag. By being celan.
But garage is the poster child of these "investigations", which are not intended to actually do anything more than give talking points during a recall..."any day!", and now in this latest round to intimidate conservatives and dry up donations leading into the very crucial midterms. The dems know they are going to be "baby seals" and want to mitigate the damage as much as possible.
Sounds like it's time for the Wisconsin legislature to change the law making prosecutors immune from lawsuits.
ANd yet Christie is in trouble for something?
Of the six convictions, only three for people connected to Walker, although none of their actions were connected to Walker.
They were campaigning illegally on Walker's behalf, on county time, a few doors down the hall from Walker.
"we cannot afford another story like this one. No one can give them any reason to do another story. That means no laptops, no websites, no time away during the work day, etc."
No connection whatsoever.

Jesus fucking christ how did the investigators miss that evidence? I mean it's damning!
Spoken like a true Walker Cultist.
Leave Dear Leader aloooooone!
WTF is "sourcewatch" and why should I trust any link to them?
Given garage mahal's inability to, well... Hmm... Other than being prolific what has garage mahal ever done worth noting?
Never mind.

Lets look at the six involved:
Timothy Russell
Brian Pierick
Kevin Kavanaugh
These three were charged with embezzling vertaeran funds, as a result of an investigation started at Walker's office request.
William Gardner: Illegal bundling. No jail time. Even the prosecutors stated that there was no connecrtion to Walkers campaign.
Darlene Wink: Campaigning on county time, misdemeanors, no jail time. Again, no connection to Walker.
Kelly Rindfleisch: One felony conviction, six months jail. And no connection to Walker.
No lack of effort...two years...millions spent.

Yet why is it that those going after Walker seem to be the ones abusing their power?
People that are illegally fundraising for Walker, [who hired them], who worked down the hall from Walker, on taxpayer time, has no connection whatsoever to Walker.
What a fucking hack.
garage mahal, I wish you had this same passion for getting to the bottom of corruption when it's anyone other than a republican.
What were you saying about hacks?
Oh, and to echo your point about the IRS, this (the Walker ivestigation) is a fake scandal. So, stop your whining.
If campaigning on government time is such a heinous crime, 3/4 of the Obama administration would be in prison.
Obama himself began campaigning on government time before he even knew where the Senate bathroom was, and was absent for most of the votes except for the ones that he could campaign on. He should have been forced to declare his Senate salary as a campaign donation.
I believe it was Sebellius who was accused of violating the Hatch Act that prohibits campaigning by government employees on government time. After an extensive investigation in which as many witnesses were interrogated by the FBI as were Tea Party plaintiffs in their "investigation" of that case, i.e. none, Holder declared no harm no foul.
