Another Walker Confidant Busted
by Leftwing Noise Machine Fri Mar 25, 2011
Proving once again that the only way the Tea Party knows how to help people is to commit assault, another political confidant of Wisconsin Governor Scott “Pinkerton” Walker suggested bodily injury as the best way to defeat public employee unions (the other one was Walker himself, but he only “considered” the idea, wistfully).
This time it was Carlos Lam, a deputy prosecutor from nearby Tea Party Occupied Indiana, whose notion of law and order includes faking an attack on Walker to win the hearts and minds of cheeseheads.
In an email discovered by the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Center Journalism following an open records request, Lam advised Walker to stage a “false flag operation” ( jargon that apparently Cam got from watching too many episodes of "Burn Notice"), which involved hiring a goon to attack Walker, blaming the attack on unions, and thus gaining sympathy to the ogre-like governor.
Machiavelli Cam is not.
In his own inimitable words, Cam theorized the following (no doubt while rubbing his hands together and laughing sinisterly):
"If you could employ an associate who pretends to be sympathetic to the unions’ cause to physically attack you (or even use a firearm against you), you could discredit the unions….Currently, the media is painting the union protest as a democratic….Employing a false flag operation would assist in undercutting any support that the media may be creating in favor of the unions. God bless, Carlos F. Lam."
You have to love the “God bless”.
Cam resigned, and Nixonlike, Walker denied any knowledge of this plumbers-op conspiracy. But at this point nobody believes a word he says. God bless him.
Weirdly, Lam is the second Indiana Tea Party prosecutor to lose his job suggesting that somebody assault somebody as the Zen of politics. The other was Jeff Cox, who longingly wondered whether the best way to defeat Wisonsin's uppity workers might involve the judicious use of "live ammunition" against them.
God bless the Tea Party.
