1. Well, that's kinda convenient ...

... cuz I can name several people who'd just LOVE to p*ss on Scott Walker!

[zebonaut]

22. Yeah I'll give him some urine...stand back....

[AngryDem001]

26. I have two gallons ready to go!!

[GeorgeGist]

2. On Wisconsin

[SoapBox]

3. I can honestly say...

I hate this POS.

And WI? Really? Re-elected? What the Fuck.

[riqster]

4. Elect Wingnuts, get wingnut policies.

WI Dems should have turned out. They didn't. Tough shit. Next time, maybe they'll fucking vote for a Goddamned change.

[Lochloosa]

6. Why Vote...they are all the same.

Guess I had better add this....

[riqster]

8. Sadly, far too many Americans actually buy into that.

Here is a good example of how false the notion is. Maybe it'll wake a few fuckwits up.

[Helen Borg]

14. They all want your urine! :)

[Baitball Blogger]

5. Finding every way possible to triage their humanity.

[Archae]

7. Under most circumstances I wouldn't have to worry...

I do get food stamps.

I don't like getting high, I haven't used even pot for decades.

The last narcotics I used were prescription, and that was last year.

BUT...

I read somewhere that the false positive rate on these "pee in a cup" tests is 5%.

So 5 out of a hundred were labeled drug abusers, falsely.

(Not to mention the Florida fiasco along this line...)

Until they get ZERO false positives, I will quite vocally oppose them.

[BlueJazz]

9. I'm fine with it if the State of Wisconsin will pay each recipient 500 bucks for the inconvenience.

I'd have no problem with it...

[freshwest]

10. Children recieve 40% of the food stamps. He's shaming them for the crime of being alive and poor.

More GOP pro-life stuff...

[The Wizard]

11. Urine business

is mein business.

[jonjensen]

12. what is to be done?

what is to be done. lenin said it best. the business community supports walker. demand the business community get rid of walker or boycott wisconsin businesses and blockade road and rail lines into wisconsin. if you are not willing to do what it takes don't whine and pretend you care!

[Helen Borg]

13. So, let me check...

Alcohol is OKAY, but MJ is not?

[The Wizard]

15. Urine business

is mein business.

[ReRe]

16. K&R

That's the best one you've come up with lately, EarlG. Before we know it, they will be either catheterizing people or have cameras in the restrooms to be sure they don't cheat. Seriously. If this starts happening as a dictate all over this country, the catheter or camera won't be far behind.
I wonder, will they drug test the entire family? Just the parents? And who pays for all the testing???

[AllyCat]

17. Proud to vote and work against him

Standing in shame that the idiots in my state think he is awesome enough to deserve another term.

[Still In Wisconsin]

39. Isn't that awful?

I can't figure it...must be his "affable nature," the fact that he is good at making his extreme ideas sound obvious and reasonable, and just a general malaise among the "undecideds" who end up swinging elections. OH, and he's a Packer fan. And Badger fan, and sometimes he recognizes the Brewers.

Sad thing for me is the he is my boss. I am in the UW system.

[noiretextatique]

44. a complete waste of money, already proven as FACT in florida

but they will do anything to punish poor people.

[longship]

18. Drug testing is statistically rubbish.

Presuming that a minority of those tested are actually drug users, and presuming that the accuracy of the test is not perfect, the inevitable result of any drug testing mandate is that there will be many more false positives than false negatives.

It is a statistical inevitability, given the presumptions, or any political argument.

[lsewpershad]

19. This clown

should drink his urine.

[tclambert]

20. Anyone visiting the governor's office should pee in his coffee cup

just to be safe. You know he'll want it.

[PeoViejo]

21. Maybe Scott Walker just likes drinking Piss.

Assh0le.

[blkmusclmachine]

23. ,

[Blue Owl]

24. I'm gonna piss on Walker's legacy and tell him it's raining

That fuckin piece of shit...

[PatrynXX]

25. lets see I'm on Ritalin

that mucks up that test

oh and I love Lemon Poppy Seed muffins do'h. that also messes up the test. ahem anyone have a cold? cough syrup? whoops.... yeah huge waste of money. but hey those republicans are massive pig spenders

[HereSince1628]

31. Protecting taxpayers from welfare fraud is like protecting states against voter fraud

Who would object to just making sure the system isn't being cheated?

Only THE GUILTY!

My god. IT isn't happening here. But what -IS- happening here is every bit just as bad.

[deafskeptic]

27. So if I need food stamps, I gotta pee for food? n/t

[HockeyMom]

28. Florida wanted to randomly drug test all Public Employees

Did this apply to the Space Alien Governor and his Legislature? Of course not.

[muntrv]

29. Drug test Scott Walker! He's been snorting Koch!

[adirondacker]

30. Tea Baggers and the Pee Party.

Stay classy republicans.

[AzDar]

32. You FIRST, Scumbag...

[Jamaal510]

33. GOPee. nt

[Cha]

34. You win!

[Cha]

35. This is what the Dems in Wisconsin who didn't vote are okay with.. and any other state where the

the GOP are ruling with an iron fascist fist.

Mahalo EarlG

[Turbineguy]

36. If he didn't copy this

he'd have to think up something else that won't work.

[JustAnotherGen]

37. He's such a monumental

Dumb ass!

[Still In Wisconsin]

38. It's just so, so embarrassing

I have been a resident of this state for 48 of my 50 years. I truly do not recognize what it has become.

[PeaceNikki]

43. Welcome to DU my fellow cheesehead!

I agree, I have been here 28 of my 42.

[yurbud]

40. people should not only comply, but we should ALL give him a golden shower

[Initech]

41. Scott Walker is the Dexter Morgan of politics.

He's been up for reelection three times and all three times he's managed to escape by the skin of his teeth, and each time he gets scarier and scarier.

[PatrickforO]

42. Well, some of us voted, but

it was the LOWEST turnout since 1942. Sadly, I can't help but say that this is what the generally apathetic and ignorant American people are going to get over the next two years - and, folks, this is just the TIP of the iceberg!

Yep. We have the government we DESERVE.

[noiretextatique]

45. a government by, and for the Koch brothers

thanks to SCOTUS. the GOP is nothing more than a gang of organized criminals...from SCOTUS on down. voters have become completely irrelevant.
