Scott Walker, Milwaukee County Budget, and Motives....

[eyeonwisconsin.com]

I have some personal experience in working with Scott Walker and I question his motives (surprise). Since he wants to be governor, I thought I should share this with all of you.

1. So he wants to take public money and give it to his private "friends".

And it goes back to that same organization, eh? This whole thing stinks to high heaven. Keep on digging, eye, you've got something rather significant there.

Oh, and just out of curiosity, who keeps an eye on regulations of these "privatized" organizations? How do we know the clients would receive proper treatment, care, etc., without worrying about the "cost-effectiveness"?

2. Curious

I did some checking on Google and Newsmeat to see who was involved in Phoenix Health Systems. I found two top guys for Phoenix:
Donald Fritz and Leonard F. Dziubla. When I checked Newsmeat for their political contributions I was really surprised:

Fritz is a consistant contributor to Russ Feingold and the only contribution for Dziubla was an '03 contribution to Kletzka.

here's a link if you want to do some more searching:

I don't know what this means but I couldn't find any record of Phoenix Health making contributions to Walker.

3. I'm Not Sure Why The Database Doesn't Have It But.....

I have physical copies of the records from the Milwaukee County Election Commission, that show them both giving money to him going back to at least 2003. Maybe the database only searches statewide? I'm not familiar with this one (but I'm glad you told me about it).
So I'm not saying they only give to GOP or Walker but I'm just saying they do give to him.

4. That is strange

here's the link to one:

and the other

5. Why does it seem like the county is having mid budget crisises

that the state and city don't seem to have?

6. I do NOT like scottie,

with his Leave It To Beaver 1950's haircut - the part is so straight it doesn't even match the curve of his head! HA

He is just as much of a repuke as the ones who are in congress/WH now.

He says one thing that his base likes to hear, and then his actions do nothing for the public he is supposed to serve.

Everything benefits his friends, his family or himself. Just look at his last 2 motorcycle rides thru the state ... paid for with taxpayers money, yet handing out tickets to Milwaukee attractions only to repukes that his staff arranged to meet with him! Remind you of somebody named W?

If you want me to send LTTE or to TV Stations, let me know how you think we could draft a good one - I will do all I can to stop him from his desire to be Governor!
