Rebecca Kleefisch is a former television news anchor, turned right-wing politician, and is currently
serving as Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin. She was elected to the position on November 2, 2010,
as the running mate of Republican Governor Scott Walker.

Today, now that more than 100,000 signatures have already been collected to recall her Governor boss,
Governor Scott Walker has sent in his Lt. Gov. to try and convince people NOT to exercise their rights
to sign the recall.

She would rather you simply look the other way and forget the high crimes committed against human decency
by the republicans.

1. Sorry darling it is all over but the shouting for you & Scott

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x5065708

In 1 week they have gathered more than 20% of the total # number needed to recall you and Scott.

Rebecca you remind me of my own governor John Kasich who offered to "negotiate" w/ the anti SB 5 folks last summer
after the repeal movement had gotten up and running if only we agreed to stop w/ the special election that
would kill SB 5.

BTW did ALEC or the Koch brothers give you that script to read?

[roguevalley]

11. great. another baguette that is giving boobs a bad name

so, does she become governator or will Feingold be the man? Hopefully?

[NBachers]

16. I wish I'd said that, but I'm glad I didn't, roguevalley- That's the best post of the day

[roguevalley]

17. thank you, honey. And I say that as a citizen of a state that

spawned Palin on the world. :-D

[AllyCat]

54. I had a nice prim, proper looking woman sign against Walker and asked if she was "a whore"

when I asked her to sign Kleefisch's petition. A bit taken aback I explained who she was and her, um, pedigree that got her into office including having been a news anchor. The woman signed it and handed it back to me saying "You're right, she's a whore". Ummm...okay. Kind of surprised, but the lady seemed pretty sure of her convictions.

[WillParkinson]

2. Sorry Becky...

Signed.
Sealed.
Delivered.
Your ours.

[avebury]

3. The price of your signature is priceless.

Everyone has the right to excercise their constitutional rights.

[Pharaoh]

4. Up yours Rebecca!!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[athenasatanjesus]

5. She's good looking,and has Bart Stars signature...I'm sold

[socialindependocrat]

6. It's the price of FREEDOM!!!

Next time we'll remember never to elect another Repuke

so we won't have to waste money in the future.

Bye, bye lice!!!

[jhrobbins]

8. You have just insulted lice everywhere

[socialindependocrat]

10. My bad...

[indivisibleman]

7. Priceless

Police costs for Wisconsin protest: $7.8 million
Repair of damage to the Capitol building and grounds: $270,000
Recall of Scott Walker and Rebecca Kleefisch: $650,000 according to the Walker State Journal or 7.7 million dollars according to Rebecca Kleefisch.
Restoration of democracy, restoration of worker's rights, restoration of protections and services for the poor and elderly, and preservation of Wisconsin's environment: Priceless.

[calimary]

9. Better be careful, rebecca, honey. YOU could be NEXT!

republi-CONS sure get off on the whole fear thing, don't they? They use it ruthlessly. And then they collapse like bad infrastructure when they suddenly find themselves with serious reasons to become fearful.

Hey, it's nice to see something that makes THEM shake in THEIR boots. To paraphrase somebody from the last gawd-awful regime here whose name I can't remember (might have been said about cheney and his imperious ilk) - "let them hate (us), as long as they FEAR!"

[KevTucky]

12. I guess

They should do the honarable thing and resign to save all that money?

[Enthusiast]

30. I second that suggestion!

[AnotherMother4Peace]

59. I third that suggestion - AND welcome to DU!

[AllyCat]

53. Oddly, I have had no one yet refuse to sign the petition to recall her

when they sign Walker's. I'm hoping others are getting similar results. And as others have suggested, she will be taxed whether she is recalled or not. Can't wait.

[postulater]

13. The most jobs Walker has created are the jobs created by the Recalls. nt

[W T F]

14. That's ok Rebecca, because after we boot Walkers ass out of office.........

We're going to tax the hell out of wealthy, corrupt politicians like yourself, and make YOU pay for it!!!
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[graywarrior]

15. Gee, when you sell your soul to the devil, Beckster, you pays the piper.

[DCKit]

18. K&R for the comments. Y'all are too much. nt

[glowing]

19. Not to be rude and commenting on women't looks because I don't really like that sort of thing,

however, what was she selling in that ad? There are seriously porn stars who wear less makeup than that.. And the lipstick is way to dark for a daytime ad. Normally, they try to make these females look a bit softer in the eyes and use a lip gloss or paler lip color for the politicians.... I don't understand this look. She looks more like she belongs to one of the Wives of... tv shows.

[jmowreader]

23. Rebecca's a Republican Politician (TM)

She wears no more makeup than Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann or Christine O'Donnell do. (Which is to say, if you're a Republican woman who goes into politics you're apparently duty-bound to go REAL heavy on the cosmetics.)

[999998th word]

20. While we're talking money, how much money have the Koch boys spent

plus all of the other MILLIONS to fight this. MUCH MORE than that Kleebitch.

We will NEVER know the exact amount the RW bullshit machine will spend but I GUARANTEE it will be a hell of a lot more than that 'special election'

We will boot his sorry ass out, and yours with it.:evilgrin: :nuke:

[AverageJoe90]

21. Guten tag, frau Kleefisch. Du bist furcht? LOL. xD

[jonthebru]

22. Oh, so the smart thing to do in your book...

is to allow your fascist co-conspirators to continue undoing the progress made for the middle class of your state through decades because it will cost money to have the governor recalled? In my book, that is called an unintended consequence. Even if you'd have thought of that you would not want to disappoint your financier billionaires. What they say is what you do, right?

By the way, a question. If Walker is thrown out, does this babe keep her job?

I am really sorry I don't get to sign for a Walker recall.

[999998th word]

25. 2 separate recall petitions, thanks to the current fascists in power.

These petitions are presented @ the same time.

Confused? well thats what they want. Than the repukes will run fake democrats AGAIN.--and that is YOUR party, Kleebitch.

Remember YOUR party pulled that shit during the summer recalls so shut the fuck up about 'how much was spent'.:shrug:

[HDPaulG]

24. Rebbeca....

Cannot understand normal thinking.

[Confusious]

26. The cost of not recalling Walker is going to be MUCH higher

I love this. All they got left is "It costs to much," well, it'll cost a LOT more to leave him in office.

[Botany]

27. Latest math; The recall folks have 24% of the total needed

But she doe have some "big hair."

[Enthusiast]

28. That is awesome!

Rebecca, are you intentionally insulting the people of Wisconsin?

I'm not so sure other Republicans won't adopt Rebbecca's strategy. I mean, they have tried everything else to remove us from our vote. "Democracy is just too expensive."

[DiverDave]

29. lol

God what a putz she is.

Bye bye

[Hubert Flottz]

31. I costs a hundred dollars to get rid of a rotten tooth but what's...

money when you're in round the clock pain?

Edit...Can they put that hack on the recall too?

[trumad]

32. 300 bucks for a Bart Starr autograph football...

Honey---you got ripped off.

They go for about 140.00 nowadays.

[JJW]

33. Cost of collective bargaining rights, that Scott stole?

Priceless. Send the criminal to jail along with his Republican thugs.

[GoCubsGo]

34. $7 million is a bargain.

It looks like the people of Wisconsin I quite willing to pay that kind of money to correct a mistake. Not that I believe this nitwit's numbers. Do they get to recall her, too?

[Plucketeer]

44. AND........ as they say...

FREEDOM isn't free! Herr Walker und Hair Kleebitch vil be neutered!

[Atypical Liberal]

35. sometimes it is expensive TO TAKE OUT THE TRASH.

[FailureToCommunicate]

36. Wait...who is Bart Starr, and why did he pay $300 to vote in Wisconsin?

Or... did I miss something? (***rewinds video***)

[The Wizard]

37. The cost in human suffering

and degradation from Walker's jihad against Wisconsin's labor force is far to high. Out with the Walker/Koch cartel now. Indict them, convict them, inject them, inspect them and reject them.

[AlbertCat]

38. A football? Seriously?

:eyes:

[Mendocino]

39. "Democracy is just too pricey folks...

Facism though is more bang for your buck".

She should get a job selling tupperware.

[Plucketeer]

40. Squirm baby, squirm!`

Look to the Crystal Ball of Ohio for a preview of what's in store for you and Scotty! LOL!!! :rofl:

[Quantess]

41. I like this guy!

Is he a DUer?

[zinnisking]

42. Walker already said he has little doubt we'll collect enough signatures

[midnight]

43. The part I like best about this video is how this former news anchor

speakes to us like we are in grade school.... That we are not smart enough to understand that the financial hardship has already taken place, via her partner Scott, giving away the budget surplus within the first month of him taking office to his big donators... and not because of any wrong doing by nurses, teachers, or any other public workers...

[snacker]

45. Wisconsin Dems have filed a complaint against Kleefisch

because of this misleading "ad":


November 16, 2011

WisDems File Complaint Against Rebecca Kleefisch for Deliberately Misleading Ad

MADISON-The Democratic Party of Wisconsin today filed a complaint against Rebecca Kleefisch for producing a campaign Web ad that deliberately creates the impression it is being released by the office of lieutenant governor.

Wisconsin law prohibits the use of government resources for partisan political gain and also requires that campaign communications make clear they are paid for by a candidate's committee. The Kleefisch ad in question has no such identification.

The Kleefisch ad follows a taxpayer-funded propaganda website that apes talking points repeated on campaign communications from corporate front groups such as Americans For Prosperity and the MacIver Institute.

46. Sock Puppet!

[rhett o rick]

47. The Kock Bro see that $7 million as money they should get. nm

[rhett o rick]

48. Who is paying for this ad? nm

[Douglas Carpenter]

49. I just contributed to Recall Scott Walker

I think that is something every progressive here can get behind:

51. Thanks for the WI recall page link - I'm going to donate as well, right now!

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

50. Wow. She still talks exactly like a talking head.

What a complete phony.

[swilton]

52. Very patronizing

[JJW]

55. A real Stepford Lt Gov

can't get more condensing than these republican thugs.

[Mendocino]

57. Yea... "Daddy "has a real football,

I'm not to touch it, but in this case....

[tnlurker]

56. I'l watch this later

[Bill USA]

58. Kleefish wins the Eva Braun award for 2011, showing there is no depths of depravity that can't be

plumbed by sick humans.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

60. Oooo- It's going to cost the taxpayers money....

Yes, well it's going to cost the Koch brothers even more.

Afraid of what a special election will cost taxpayers? How much will it cost you to have a couple more years of some political whore pushing legislation written by the Koch brothers (who say their favorite president was Coolidge) down your throat?

[SpankMe]

61. Funny - cost wasn't a factor when Gray Davis was recalled.

The Democratic governor of California, Gray Davis, was re-elected in 2002 and recalled in 2003. And there was no real crime or scandal involved. At least, no more that the usual background stuff with life-long politicians.

But, conservatives didn't stress the added cost to taxpayers of a recall election in those days.

I guess you only bring stuff up like that when it's to your benefit.

[jmowreader]

62. Money's never a factor when Republicans are spending it

Did we hear ONE WORD from the Republican Party between 2001 and 2009, when George W. Bush was busy creating the deficit they're now all up in arms about?

Or when Reagan was spending money like a carrier battle group full of drunken sailors on shore leave?

No! We did not! We only hear screaming when Democrats want to spend money!

[Mendocino]

63. At least $1.25 billion a week

spent in the Iraq under Bush, plus untold amounts diverted to the likes of Haliburton and Blackwater. No screams.
