And do you know what he (Walker) is doing to “care for our most vulnerable citizens”? He’s kicking those who are on BadgerCare, the state’s medical assistance program, with incomes between 100 percent and 133 percent of the federal poverty level out of the program. But he said we shouldn’t worry about them because they’ll be able to get health insurance — on the exchanges.

These are the same exchanges that he refused to have the state, with all of its knowledge and experience, establish itself. And they’re the same exchanges he excoriates now.

Walker doesn’t like Obamacare. We get that. But he could have been a hero. He could have said, “Hey, we’re stuck with this, and a lot of it is really bad, but because we know what works best for Wisconsin, we’re going to do as much as we can to get our residents the health insurance coverage they need.”
