Definition of flushed down the toilet in question.

But bravo for joining the thread with childish antics

Sorry for my curiosity, but does his physical presence in the state actually alter the weather or improve the condition of asphalt? Is this the 18th century, where he would need to dispatch his directives via a horseback courier, to arrive in Madison a month later? Not sure why the need for the ad hominem attack based on his physical location?
Good Post. I love these post who construct a story to destroy someone credibility. Lefties always leave the facts out of the story.

At least Walker is not golfing while heads are literally rolling.

Walker cut taxes to the wealthy. Now WI transportation budget faces a roughly $680 million shortfall over the next two years. The department’s proposal relies on the tax and fee increases along with roughly half a billion dollars in general tax revenue to balance and keep major road projects on schedule.

The relevance of this is absolute zero.

I am NOT surprised that you get ALL of your in from a local radio station. It shows ONE pot hole. Oh, the horror.

I think I will take the source I used instead of some local yokal radio station.

By the way, what was the condition of the roads for ALL those years the dems controlled the state?

An un-biased comparison is required.

We make an annual trip to Wis. Actually, the roads seemed pretty good this past year, and better than it was several years ago. I can't quite figure out why the complaints about the roads. Not as good as Texas, but then again Texas weather isn't near as hard on roads as the weather is in Wis.

I lived in New Jersey for three years. When they had that governor who cheated on his wife with a man. Then left her to live with his homosexual boyfriend. They had the most horrednus roads I've ever driven on, they'll destroy your suspension.

while I am not admitting that Mr. Walker has in any way done less than the best for the state of WI, I would point out that if (IF) there is any question as to the amount of attention he has paid to the roads in Wisconsin (or any other policy matter...for that matter) I would humbly suggest, if he had not been forced to spend his time dealing with sore loser liberal bigots who hate non-liberals.

and if WI has a budget shortfall, it might have something to do with the Turfgrass professional union thug protestors who cost the state millions in cleanup bills after they TRASHED THE STATE CAPITAL...
