Following up a rumour, I checked out some Wisconsin GOV. internet sites,(unemployment, etc.)to find Walker's pasty fish face was indeed featured in the majority. Wisconsin residents is this something new? Were previous Governors featured in GOV. sites? Is this man, frightened of a recall, using state rerources for campaigning?

That bastard! Can you imagine the sheer gall of a Governor of a State actually being pictured on a State website? We ought to recall the guy.

If OP is being serious, he may have overtaken Dave as biggest troll on P&N.

That said, I would vote for a Christy/Walker ticket any day of the week.

I think the short answer is certainly, he's using state resources to aid his campaign, trying to improve and reinforce his name recognition. That said, it's a pretty benign and very common tactic, not unique to Walker specifically or Republicans in general. Politicians like to plaster their name and face all over everything they influence, and is he is the face representing the Wisconsin State government today. There are far more substantive reasons to criticize him.

Not the state's internet home page, you would expect a Governor's bio/photo to be there, further back in the state's services and info pages there are all these nicely framed campaign photos of Walker and a flag.

Just because a few posters can demonstrate Walker is not using State assets for illegal purposes in a few areas, does nothing to prove Walker is innocent of illegal behavior in all other areas.

The OP creates a thread that is completely debunked.

Until he can show otherwise; he is a fool/tool followed by multiple other anti-Walker sheep.

All I asked was that he demonstrate that the date of a page being changed is after the start of the recall. When he proves such; then he can gloat.

and I will be willing to eat crow.

HAHAHAHA. OMG. That's has to be one of the dumbest posts I've ever seen in my life. This fails on so many levels that I can hardly stop laughing long enough to get this post out.
