That is the idea I got from the article. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-53179751403912215782013-02-06T09:56:59.983-06:002013-02-06T09:56:59.983-06:00“I don’t make decisions on whether a person’s a De...“I don’t make decisions on whether a person’s a Democrat or a Republican or an independent,” he says. “I make decisions on whether I can prove a case beyond a reasonable doubt.”<br /><br />Now compare that to the actions of former U.S. Attorney Steven Biskupic who spuriously prosecuted Georgia Thompson for the sole purpose of creating a phoney political scandal that could be used to smear Governor Doyle in an election year. It's not pretty.<br /><br />Unfortunately, Biskupic is representative of most Republican prosecutors, who put Party above the law and the Constitution, who over-prosecute so as to run-up up a body-count that can be bragged about at election time.Garethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-63970931754207213782013-02-06T09:25:35.183-06:002013-02-06T09:25:35.183-06:00If Walker wasn't involved, he'd (1) say &q...If Walker wasn't involved, he'd (1) say "I'm innocent". He can't, so he won't, so he's guilty. And, (2) if Walker were innocent, he'd hand over a formal letter from the DA clearing him. Again, he can't, so he won't, so he's guilty.<br /><br />Remember, it took 48 months for Blagojevich to be charged. When convicted, he was sent to prison for 14 years. We're only at about month 24 for the Walker investigation.<br /><br />I've got all the patience in the world to put Scott Walker behind bars...I hope for at least 14 years...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-38989890358368785272013-02-06T05:11:15.206-06:002013-02-06T05:11:15.206-06:00This article certainly could be read to interpret ...This article certainly could be read to interpret that walker will walk from this and that our legal system:<br /><br />1. cannot resolve complex political crimes that have powerful people behind them and nearly endless streams of funds for criminal defense.<br /><br />2. even if our legal system can hold high-level, well-financed criminals accountable for the crimes behind their ascent to power; our political system has no way to cleanse itself of the stench and illegitimate havoc and economic terrorism these criminals inflict on the rest of us and our democracy as a whole.<br /><br />Thanks for pointing this out, but I don't see as a "must read" nor as anything that, at this time, does any more than give people on both sides to proclaim that "see, Milw Mag said I was RIGHT!".<br /><br />Of course, if indictments for those that directly benefited from crimes low-level and stooooopid people committed appear to have been manipulated to commit, then this article does put things on the record before the serious anti-walkergate propaganda comes.<br /><br />And we all know that, in the case of indictment, the screeching media shills will howl unlike even the pro-walker 24/7 promos they spew now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
