Question of the day
Wednesday, May 8, 2013 - Posted by Rich Miller [I’ve changed this post to make it the QOTD.] * There’s one born every minute. Suckers, that is…
No disrespect, but Joe Walsh’s childish outbursts are pretty well known, yet his PAC’s name is Grow Up & Be Free? Or, maybe it’s a message to his kids, to whom he appears to owe child support. And speaking of which, instead of traveling all over Illinois to raise federal funds, shouldn’t he be getting himself a jobby job? * The Question: What other PAC names would be appropriate?

I think he confused his PAC name with his message to his kids

Watch out Rich. Walsh said on air last week he’d punch anyone in the face who brought up his child support payments.
- Jeff Trigg - Wednesday, May 8, 13 @ 11:05 am:
Funny. Of course the entire Democratic Party in Illinois hardly believes in having free and equal democratic elections (Lee v. Keith), so Walsh seems to be following their example. They can’t honestly pretend to believe in democracy after keeping independents off the ballot for 25 years with ballot access laws that violated the 1st and 14th amendments. This is typical Illinois politics.

Wow! He’s even worse than I had feared.

@Jeff:
Ask any politician of either party to sponser legislation to make it easy for independents to get on the ballot. Let me know how you do.
- Grandson of Man - Wednesday, May 8, 13 @ 11:08 am:
Walsh’s message to his kids is that child support makes them weak and dependent. They should pull themselves up by their own bootstaps and stop demanding a handout from him.

The PAC will be funding anti-union candidates with the hope of stripping unions and ending child labor laws, so that his kids can work for a living and stop waiting for the nanny-father to take care of them.

Grow up and be free? Sounds like a child’s view of adulthood. Yup - that’s Joe Walsh.

Maybe Joe Walsh should move to South Carolina and debate card board boxes, he’s probably have a good chance at getting to be a Congressman again. They believe in forgiveness… even if you’re still breaking the law.
