It's an important campaign issue that Walker is putting in so little time on the job for the salary he collects. Any other public employee would never get away with a schedule like this.
Well, when one is a member of a political party that insists that government can do nothing, it is to be expected that a member of the government spend as little time performing his duties as possible.
Also, considering the damage he does when he IS working, I think we should be thankful he has so little interest in doing so.
I don't remember him campaigning on spending, what, 5% of his time actually doing the work he was elected for. I wonder what the result of saying something like that in a job interview would be....
They still have the gall to say the Fab 14 did't come to work to vote on Act 10. They were working hard for the public's right to know, not raising money for themselves.

But one fill, though comparatively inconsequential, may lead to another, and another, and before long a great body may be eaten away until it may no longer exist. Our navigable waters are a precious natural heritage, once gone, they disappear forever," wrote the Wisconsin Supreme Court in its 1960 opinion resolving Hixon v. PSC and buttressing The Public Trust Doctrine, Article IX of the Wisconsin State Constitution.

Anon, I think Kathy Nickolaus will, now that she has 'stepped aside' from the primary duties of her office.

What is the source of this information? I believe it -- I'd just like citations, please.
If you click through the link you work your way to the One Wisconsin Now material.

But but he was doing his work from the Koch jet. I wish someone could get a video of him getting on one of these jets!.

Good luck with that.
