Last week, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s official “campaign team” sent an email to the potential donors in which his deputy, Taylor Palmisano, asked supporters to forgo purchasing presents for their children in lieu of donating to his reelection effort.
“Instead of venturing into the cold this Black Friday,” it began, “stay in and give your children a gift that will keep on giving. This year, we are celebrating the Holiday Season with a Black Friday special that is better than any deal found in stores. Donate $5, $10 or $25 to help Governor Walker get reelected and save your children from a future of double-digit tax increases and billion dollar budget deficits.”
Raw Story
Yes, that's right. Don't buy your kids presents. Give to Walker instead.
My advice: if you've got to choose between buying gifts for your kids and giving to any political campaign anywhere for anything, go with the kids. But Scott Walker? Scott Walker is going to save your kids from deficits? Really?
Walker's latest budget has a structural deficit of $1B over 2 years
So, yeah, Walker's a liar. And has corruption investigations dogging his every step. But screw your kids, give to Scott!
What a jerk. What an entitled, greedy, grasping, self-righteous little jerk.
Oh, and someone alert Bill O'Reilly - I think I finally found his War on Christmas.
