My letter to the editor of the
Wisconsin State Journal about the recall Scott Walker election, written on May
31, 2012:
Scott Walker has collected millions from out-of-state
billionaires and millionaires, which he has used to misrepresent and lie about
the record of Tom Barrett. Do you think any of those donors to Walker’s
campaign care one whit about the people of Wisconsin? They care about one
thing: making sure the Tea Party agenda is not put off track in this state and
country and that ALEC can continue to write legislation that right-wing
legislators duly pass without even reading the fine print. This is so out of
whack with the Wisconsin progressive tradition that I can hardly recognize my
state anymore.
