Scott Walker continues to demonstrate how to actually fight the Left.  After much fighting, the University of Wisconsin has resigned itself to the 250 million dollar funding cut in Walker's budget.  He is also signing the bill that eliminates statutory tenure for professors there.  Wisconsin was the only state in the country where university tenure was protected by statute.

The Left will no doubt hurl their predictable accusations about him being a dropout, an anti-intellectual philistine, blah blah blah.  Tenure was originally used to protect scholars from retaliation over controversial research and opinions, but is now largely just publicly funded sinecure for professors of bullsh*t hyphenated studies.

He is the rare politician (especially on this end of the spectrum) whose deeds match words.   ::thumbsup::
