Sure they will not pull the football away as they approach to kick. Not this time, Charlie Brown, they promise! <br /><br />If you're arguing for different treatment for Walker than any previously recalled politician, you're going to need to work harder than that. So far, your best argument for an early start is because you <i>do</i> imagine "the Bears will commit a lot of penalties." <br /><br />After all, any sane person - even the referee at a Bears game - can imagine that <a href="http://sharkandshepherd.blogspot.com/2011/12/recall-problems.html" rel="nofollow">that there are 5,000 people</a> who will sign an average of 25 times.<br /><br />What level of examination was good enough in the past? If you can imagine that it'll be difficult to find duplicates, can you also imagine that it was difficult to gather that many signatures? How much more burden would you like lifted from Walker's shoulders, at taxpayer expense?<br /><br />There are several stages of detection and correction, of course. The first is the good-faith effort of the petition circulator. Of course we can examine the role of the GAB. Can we imagine why petition circulators would open themselves up to a felony for allowing "Mickey Mouse" to remain unstruck or to encourage duplicate signatures? <br /><br />As for redefining words, perhaps the GAB can turn to the WisGOP media outlet of the McGyver Institute, who alarms the public with their <a href="http://www.politifact.com/wisconsin/statements/2011/dec/18/maciver-institute/conservative-group-says-wisconsin-allow-mickey-mou/" rel="nofollow">claim that the GAB will "accept"</a> Mickey Mouse signatures, in the open-ended sense that the official with whom the petition is offered for filing "accepted" them at the counter.Display Namehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15842340986220388709noreply@blogger.com
