Now the fingers are all pointing at you with the word "Liar".
Walker's book "Unintimidated" quotes Senator Tim Cullen of Janesville as saying he would have persuaded his 13 Democratic colleagues not to leave the state in 2011, had he been at the meeting where they decided to leave town to try and block a vote on Walker's Act 10 union law.and:Cullen tells the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel he never said that.
Walker also wrote that he would have laid off hundreds of workers if a Milwaukee County union did not make concessions -- and he quoted the union chief as saying, "Go ahead and do it."And those are just 2 of the lies in just 1 tiny article.Union leader Rich Abelson tells the Journal Sentinel, "That is frankly just a lie ... He has no proof, and no witnesses of that."
Here's more from Salon on the infamous Fake Koch phone call where Buffalo Beast blogger Ian Murphy pretended to be David Koch:
The governor claims that he “hesitated” to take it, and “was upset that my staff had let the call get through to my office, making me look so silly.” He never actually “thought about” the fake troublemakers—he now writes that he “did not want to insult Mr. Koch by saying that we would never do something so stupid.”In fact, he claims that it took a week or 2 for him to take the call. Ian Murphy disagrees, noting that his first call to Walkers office was at about 11:30 AM and by 2 PM that same day he was on the phone with Walker.
In the book about the Fake Koch call:
He doesn’t mention the baseball bat at all, skipping right ahead to the press conference called to clean up the mess. Walker only took four questions as protesters chanted at a decibel level that rammed right through the office doors. “Only later did I realize that God had a plan for me with that episode,” writes Walker. After his press conference, he picked up his daily devotional and saw the title for Feb. 23: The power of humility, the burden of pride.Yup, there's plenty of God and divine providence in that book (after all, Walker wants to be President and the Very Religious Right need to be pandered to), but humility isn't a quality Walker can claim.“I looked up and said, ‘I hear you, Lord,’” writes Walker. “God was sending me a clear message to not do things for personal glory or fame. It was a turning point that helped me in future challenges, helped me stay focused on the people I was elected to serve, and reminded me of God’s abundant grace and the paramount need to stay humble.”
