Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Largest Newspaper In Wisconsin Endorses Scott Walker

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is your typical big city newspaper, it leans left. It’s not nearly as extreme as say the New York Times, Washington Post or the Minneapolis Star Tribune, but, it’s still left leaning. All in all, for a big city newspaper, I like the Journal Sentinel, it’s a damned good paper.

The paper endorsed Scott Walker on Saturday in the Recall. You can tell they put thought, effort and most importantly, common sense in their endorsement.

No governor in recent memory has been so controversial. No governor in America is so polarizing. Everyone has an opinion about Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin.

Here’s ours: We see no reason to remove Walker from office. We recommend him in the June 5 recall election.

Walker’s rematch with Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett was prompted by one issue: Walker’s tough stance with the state’s public-employee unions. It’s inconceivable that the recall election would be occurring absent that. And a disagreement over a single policy is simply not enough to justify a vote against the governor….

…. To his credit, Walker has helped to right the state’s finances with a minimum of gimmicks – the governor reported recently that the state may be able to book a $154 million surplus next year. This good news has been lost in the clutter surrounding an unnecessary recall election that will cost as much as $18 million just to stage, according to the Government Accountability Board.

The governor also has made a good-faith attempt to shore up the state’s economic development efforts through the creation of a public-private entity to head up those efforts, through reform of the state’s tort laws, through a series of business tax breaks and by improving Wisconsin’s image with business leaders outside the state.

And while we think Act 10 – the law that clipped the wings of most public-employee unions in the state – was an overreach of political power, we understand and supported the need to rein in the state’s labor costs. Municipalities and school districts as well as the state needed more control over their budgets, which Act 10 provided….

…. Even if you disagree with Walker’s policies, does that justify cutting short his term as governor? And if so, where does such logic lead? To more recall elections? More turmoil?

It’s time to end the bickering and get back to the business of the state. We’ve had our differences with the governor, but he deserves a chance to complete his term. We recommended him in 2010. We see no reason to change that recommendation. We urge voters to support Walker in the June 5 recall election.

Reason #1 why Leftists should be euthanized

We all know that leftism is a mental illness, we’ve discussed that fact and shown the evidence by a world-renowned psychiatrist. They just don’t think like normal people, something is lacking, and that retards their mental growth. In other words, they are intellectually stunted.

Behold the illness of mental retardation known as leftism on full display from a kook that goes by the screen name of Chilidog99 who wrote this comment in yesterday’s Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:

load of BS

We don’t have a spending problem, we have a revenue problem

Here’s the screenshot of this imbecile’s ridiculously insane comment:

Can you actually believe this? Who let that loon out of the asylum? When you spend more than you take in, that’s a spending problem. But in that moron’s world, it’s just the opposite!

In his own funny little world of unicorns, rainbows, windmills and bicycles only, I wonder if he lives within his means? He probably lives like he’s a millionaire on a 50k salary and figures it’s not his fault he wound up filing for bankruptcy, it’s his bosses fault for not giving him the salary he thinks he deserves to support his lifestyle. This guy is sick in the head.

And oddly enough, most leftists actually think like this kook does. Do you understand now why I keep saying that we have to thin the herd? Seriously, those people actually think and believe as this half-wit that goes by the screen name Chilidog99. It’s because of Congress and the White House acting on that irrational belief is why this country is in the mess it is in. Don’t take my word for it, look what the Democrats have done since 2007. And look at Barack Obama. Actions speak louder than words. Look at the records. And Barack Obama has just repeated calls for more taxing and more spending to the tune of 447 billion dollars. That’s not normal. That’s mental illness. People who think like that need to be wearing the Bullwinkle hat and a brown coat, in the woods, in November.

Below is a screenshot of the story’s IP address and the title of the story that this moron, Chilidog99 commented on. No, I don’t think the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel will scrub this, they’re one of the better newspapers in the country, I just like to have the evidence on file… just in case.
