It never ceases to amaze me how low the Koch's and other right wing extremist organizations will go to essentially drop trow and lay a stinky one on the constitution and the electoral process.

First it's running bogus dem candidates in the Wisconsin primary recall elections in an attempt to throw the election.

Next it's sending out bogus absentee ballots in another attempt to throw the election.

Now these same goons are planning to setup and send out bogus Walker recall petitions to destroy them. Here's some of the lovely things these nutcases are saying:

“I’d like to collect signatures of those who want to recall Walker…so I can have something to feed my shredder,”

“As they sign, I’ll make sure to tell them not to sign another petition. I figure I can get a hundred to a few hundred signatures off the ballot. F*#&* Liberals.”

They have to play dirty because they know that Walker is a dead man walking when it comes to politics, so they have to cheat. They're desperate.

I think you take the ranting of anonymous facebook people way too seriously.

I guess that's different though, though I can't figure out how.

Yes. It's anti-American for not wanting to continue feeding public unions via YOUR tax dollars.

I see, so it's A-OK to wipe your rear end with the constitution and crap on the electoral process as long as it's for your agenda the GOP mindset at it's finest,...

Wouldn't matter, the Illinois state GOP senators don't have enough seats to block anything

For the right, winning is everything. It proves they're right and justified on everything. It's a pat on the back that they're extreme thoughts are good. If they lose an election, the winner is wrong and, just like they do with Obama, they will undermine any success. Again, winning is everything to them. It's all that matters.

Here out West there's two states where the redistricting process has been egregiously undermined by Republicans. In both states, they have enjoyed majorities for decades. But now with independents drawing the lines, they feel threatened and are doing whatever they can to insure that they remain in power. Competitiveness is not allowed, they want utter domination as the only "fair" way to elect state officials. Disgusting.

I'm not excusing the political shenanigans that both sides partake in, but it always seems the right wingers and conservatives stoop the lowest come election time.

Governor Walker needs to walk the plank. I hope the people of Wisconsin can clear up this mess.

I don't have a facebook account or a TV. From my perspective both sides are a bunch of morons living in a video fantasy land.
