FOW - Friends of Walker
Notorious Koch Poodle Scott Walker discovered that his friends can be an embarrassment if your people aren't careful.
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's (R) office has quickly sought out a new public venue for his budget signing ceremony this Sunday -- after it was reported that the Green Bay business originally selected was in fact headed up by a convicted tax felon. D'oh!...Easy enough to overlook when good governance is not part of your agenda.
Werwie acknowledged that Walker's advance team had erred by not conducting a thorough background check on Gregory A. DeCaster, chief executive officer of Badger Sheet Metal Works in Ashwaubenon.
DeCaster was convicted of six felony counts of income tax evasion in the mid-1990s and was sentenced to three months behind bars. He was also fined $10,000 and given two years of supervised release.
"It was something we wish we would have known on the front end," Werwie said.
