Scott Walker says he consults with God, but his office can’t provide documents to prove it

This is hilarious…

After Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker made another reference to God speaking to him in a speech before bankers in January, Freedom From Religion Foundation member Edward Susterich made an open records request of his office for evidence of his communications with the Lord — and his office replied, officially, that it could find none.

Governor Walker has never been shy about flashing his religious credentials, regularly telling audiences about the nondenominational evangelical church he attends, the Baptist preacher who raised him, and his belief that he only runs for office when “called” upon by God to do so.

As he told the bankers in January, “[a]ny major decision I’ve made in my life, politics or otherwise, I’ve tried to discern God’s calling on.”

As noted in Raw Story’s report, Freedom From Religion Foundation member Edward Susterich (who also happens to be a regular reader of this blog) filed the open records request demanding the governor “provide a copy/transcript of all communications with God, the Lord, Christ, Jesus or any other form of deity,” and Gov. Walker’s office was quick to respond that they did not have any records responsive to Susterich’s request.

What, God couldn’t be bothered to send Gov. Walker a quick email?

  1. Really? Based on Walker’s record of truthfulness,or lack thereof, it seems he is closer to that other “Guy” downstairs.

  2. Watching Amish Mafia last night with Merlin walking through the corn talking to God then popping out knowing what to do (challenge the leader of the town, of course) I was reminded greatly of our Governor. Here’s a clip of Ohio Boss Merlin acting out in society with the direction of God. They even kind of look similar. Related?
