Exposed: Walker dissembling, coverup of Lincoln Hills youth abuse

A Wausau television station has obtained email records which show Walker giving information which is somewhere between misleading and dishonest about his slothful response to and level of involvement in quashing a probe into allegations of violence against youth inmates at the state-run Lincoln Hills young offenders' prison.

More about the Lincoln Hills humanitarian crisis which festered and spread on his watch, here.

I note Walker's "To my knowledge, no" denial of having earlier awareness of conditions at Lincoln Hills or a direct role in cancelling an outside facility review is very similar to his "not to my knowledge" denial of knowing about a $700,000 donation from an iron mining sent through a mechanism he'd suggested to his 2012 campaign effort.

The mining company's donations eventually reached a reported $1.2 million; the mine was never built.

All you can say about about our Governor Pants on Fire is that a good talking point is hard to give up, and a history of evasive speech  - - updated - - and updated, again! - - is impossible to evade.

But can be voted to.
