[Updated, 4:54 p.m.] I have to thank my brethren at One Wisconsin now and the Madison Capital Times for locating and publishing this gem about how Walker signed off on a request from a leading Milwaukeean who wanted to arrange the placing of a Hanukah menorah at the Courthouse during Walker's County Executive days:
And I don't think this was a Walker spellcheck or staff problem.
Media reporting on earlier Walker email and document dumps related to the John Doe probe have noted how much attention Walker paid to communications that left his office:
This was a Walker-Didn't-Know problem - - which indicates other problems.
The letter is signed, "Thank you again and Molotov."But, as Tommy Thompson showed us, they repeat themselves.
And I don't think this was a Walker spellcheck or staff problem.
Media reporting on earlier Walker email and document dumps related to the John Doe probe have noted how much attention Walker paid to communications that left his office:
Several emails show Walker suggesting minor changes to press releases, writing his own responses, and pushing back against news stories he did not view as favorable. In an April 1, 2010, email sent to his chief of staff Tom Nardelli, Walker outlines his media strategy and tells Nardelli: "No one should be commenting on anything until we have a chance to talk and until we agree on our message."And I've worked in enough government executive office to know that the boss reads out-going letters - - especially to VIP's and/or on sensitive issues - - and would certainly see how a letter ends right above the signature.
This was a Walker-Didn't-Know problem - - which indicates other problems.
Hope he has a holiday cocktail on me
ReplyDeleteAs we say at this time of year also, Aeroflot!
ReplyDeleteThose spell checks can hit the nail.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely not the brightest light in the Menorah
ReplyDeleteHilarious! Perhaps someone can find a muzzle tough enough for him and the brilliant company he keeps.
ReplyDeleteToo bad we don't have a well educated Governor. That college degree might have made him at least look a little smarter than he is. Um, no, I don't think so.
ReplyDeleteHe should have lasted one year as governor. Miraculously, he'll last eight.
ReplyDeleteI saw what you did there, Anon @9:56. I'm considering that comment a holiday present and will be regifting it every chance I get.
ReplyDeleteAt least he did not visit all 57 states
