this is a I just to an incredible story Scott Walker the Republican governor
Wisconsin
is starting to lead a political life that would be essentially
as satirical as I don't know
a segment from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart wisconsin Governor Scott Walker
is irritated because it turned out he was on stage heaping praise on a
registered sex offender
during his State of the State address last week
he said obviously it's frustrating
according to the Associated Press here's the back story so Scott Walker
promise to create 250,000 jobs in Wisconsin
instead he destroyed labor rights and the negotiation rights have so many
teachers and others in the state of Wisconsin
and then his state lead the country
in jobs lost at that towards the end of 2013
remember he promised to create 250,000 jobs
so he gives his State of the State speech and he says hey you know what
here's a guy who got a job and I'm going to tell his story I'm gonna bring them
up in just
really praise Him and he promoted his record of job creation by pointing to a
32-year-old
Chris Barber who recently got a new job
as a welder he had him come up on stage with his welding gloves
maybe his mask and he waved to the audience and Scott Walker was clapping
and it turns out that the reason that barbour was unemployed
in the first place Louis is because he's a registered sex offender
with two felonies and three drunk driving arrests
to his name offenses rather I don't know if he was arrested on all three
according to the AP walker said he assumed barbers employer Brillion which
is a wisconsin-based
aaron's company had conducted a background check
but a spokeswoman for the company said no we never conducted
a background check can you imagine Louis you promise a quarter million new jobs
you lose jobs and to prove how great you are at creating jobs and
even in spite of all these teachers that are in worse positions to negotiate for
their own benefit
you bring a sex offender and three-time drunk driver with two felonies on stage
to brag this is I
amazing IIIA just you could make a reality show
added scott Walker's political follies you really good
but to rarely are they this I'm
are pronounced I this is great he he was very embarrassed about this
and I love seeing him get caught in something like this you everything else
he can just kinda denying
say know it work now was in what you think right now getting around there's
no getting around a picture view clapping for a sex offender
on stage front and center during your State of the State address I'm thinking
back to when Fox News try to create
a satire show kind of like the Daily Show but conservative it was called
the half-hour newshour it failed really hard
and and very very quickly just the show following Scott Walker around
would be funnier and more satirical Ben Fox is half hour news hour without
having to write anything just actual
reporting on the stuff Scott Walker does or you could just watch boxing rather
it button friends is kind of a satire a news show you actually right
