If Scott Walker wins the election next year, I give up on this country

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1014&pid=1151915

WASHINGTON -- Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) said over the weekend that the next president of the United States needed to be prepared to take aggressive military action on their very first day in office, including against Iran.

God help us if this belligerent moron wins. He's even worse than Trump. At least Trump hasn't said this insanity yet, but, yes, he might, give him time.

eta: Didn't Goldwater say things like this about Vietnam ? Nuking Vietnam ?

imagine the result.

This man is a sick little "bought and paid" man, but then so is the entire Republican party, IMO.

I went into a deep depression for months. Stayed away from DU and everything. It hurt a lot. Slowly I came back to life.

But I will always think that if Bush and Cheney stole the first election (which they did) what would suddenly make them be honest for the second election? Why would they suddenly trust the people?

I'm pretty sure they stole the 2nd election too.

Below are destinations where you can live on $800 USD per month, and enjoy life in the process. They are places you would actually want to live, not just cheap ‘out in the boondocks’ rural locations or unsafe metropolitan ones.
