Unfathomably funny- He also just removed virtually all of the awful republican line items from the budget, so they got nothing.

Everyone please keep doing this to chuds forever. Just veto out letters from their bullshit to make the entirely different legislation you want instead.

      Apparently he's worked in schools at various levels for decades and ran because of how bad the previous governor's education policy was

          Scott Walker is gone, but the project he is a part of is still around and incredibly dangerous.

          There is a movement to end public schools in America and replace it with giving every parent a check. The religious right loves this because either they can send their kids to schools where they learn to hate gay people and that the earth is 6,000 years old; or they just homeschool and pocket the money. Capital loves it because it would break possibly the most powerful union remaining in the US (teachers).

          Thankfully, this movement can only accomplish so much because outside of religious nuts, Americans actually do like public schools (well, they like their public schools, fuck kids in poor neighborhoods we don’t care if their schools suck$.
