" Keeping up with the grift of Scott Walker, the goggle-eyed homunculus hired by Koch Industries to manage their midwest subsidiary formerly known as the state of Wisconsin, is becoming a full-time job, especially now that Scotty, busy as he is out there pitching his recent book-like product, has decided to spread a little holiday cheer. &amp;quot;Instead of venturing into the cold this Black Friday, stay in and give your children a gift that will keep on giving,&amp;quot; an email from the group, called Friends of Scott Walker, stated. &amp;quot;This year, we are celebrating the Holiday Season with a Black Friday special that is better than any deal found in stores. Donate $5, $10 or $25 to help Governor Walker get reelected and save your children from a future of double-digit tax increases and billion dollar budget deficits,&amp;quot; the note continued. Of course, if you happen to be the right kind of &amp;quot;contributor,&amp;quot; in return, Scotty will deliver a great swath of northern Wisconsin for your holiday despoilment pleasure. Also, don&amp;#039;t be a Mexican. It gets his staff very upset. In one, Palmisano, 23, complained about an individual who was doing custodial work in a library in which she was working. &amp;quot;I will choke that illegal mex cleaning in the library. Stop banging (expletive) chairs around and turn off your Walkman,&amp;quot; she posted on March 9, 2011. Two months earlier, she went to Twitter to write about her bus trip from Pasadena, Calif., to Las Vegas after watching the Wisconsin Badgers play in the Rose Bowl: &amp;quot;This bus is my worst (expletive) nightmare Nobody speaks English &amp;amp;amp; these ppl dont know how 2 control their kids #only3morehours #illegalaliens.&amp;quot; If anything dooms Scotty&amp;#039;s presidential dreams, it&amp;#039;s going to be this -- every part of his political career is marked by this kind of penny-ante shenanigans. He is back under grand-jury investigation because his campaign to keep his job smelled just as rank as his campaign to get the job did. This holiday fundraising scam is something that befits a not particularly bright, and not particularly honest, clerk of probate somewhere, and he can&amp;#039;t keep the small-timers he hires for his staff from making jackasses of themselves on social media. As Bogart says to Peter Lorre in Casablanca -- I don&amp;#039;t mind a parasite, I object to a cut-rate one. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
