Rachel Links Walker To "Disgraced-Drunken-Nude-Firelighting" War Contractors Who WERE ON-OUR-DIME!

On Rachel Maddow's show tonight she connects the dots between Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's union-busting moves and his association with private security firm Wackenhut, who brought lots of unwanted attention to the US with their awful sexcapades in Afghanistan awhile back.

Of course, the end of the Afghanistan War would mean that people with whom Walker is cozy would lose some important revenue streams. Remember Wackenhut, the war contractors that disgraced us by holding drunken, nude firelight romps in Afghanistan on the State Department’s dime? http://motherjones.com/mojo/2009/09/animal-house-afghanistan Walker got them a sweet privatized state security contract in a prior fit of “cost-savings” that failed to add up. But who needs to rein in death, destruction and obscenity when you can take a whack at the unions, right? Walker’s not actually interested in fixing a supposed emergency. He’s interested in paying off allies and zinging enemies, and you can tell that by his silence on war spending that’s bleeding his state taxpayers dry.

Oh look, here's some payback. Nothing like no-bid contracts to sell or lease public power facilities to pay back folks who might have an interest in Wisconsin's energy industry.
