Big fat liar Scott Walker caught telling a big fat lie

It’s no secret to anyone who’s been paying to attention to Gov. Scott Walker’s career spent in politics that Walker is not above telling a lie when it furthers his own ambitions, but rarely does he ever have to answer for those lies.

However, now that he’s running for president, it seems some in the national news media aren’t going to let Scott Walker spoon feed them lies without at least fact-checking those lies. As reported in Time by Zeke Miller, Gov. Walker recently told a doozy of a lie about British Prime Minister David Cameron and President Barack Obama to a roomful of Republican donors, presumably to win them over with his foreign policy “prowess.”

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker says British Prime Minister David Cameron confided in him that he was concerned about the direction of American leadership. But there’s a problem with the Republican’s tidy critique of President Barack Obama: Cameron doesn’t remember it that way.

Walker, who has taken several trips overseas in recent months to study up on foreign policy in preparation for an all-but-certain presidential bid, told a roomful of Republican donors Friday that world leaders, including Cameron, are worried about the U.S. stepping back in the world. “The Prime Minister did not say that and does not think that,” a Downing Street spokesperson told TIME.

“I heard that from David Cameron back in February earlier when we were over at 10 Downing,” Walker said. “I heard it from other leaders around the world. They’re looking around realizing this lead from behind mentality just doesn’t work. It’s just not working.”

Walker’s campaign has not addressed Gov. Walker seemingly having been caught in a lie about President Obama and Prime Minister Cameron, nor do I expect Gov. Walker or his campaign to admit he told a lie.

  1. Walker believes if he can’t remember the lie then it can’t be counted as a lie. Just like because he didn’t vote on an issue he can flip-fop on it but that can’t be counted as flipping. The man has his own set of rules and if need be he just makes up new ones as he goes along.

  2. He lies about everything no matter how trivial. He is clearly pathological. My favorite doozy is the explanation for his bald spot. Something about hitting the back of his head on a kitchen cabinet during re-modeling. The hair just never grew back! Yeah right! For what reason would you make up a story like that?

    1. Luckily our democratic presidential candidate HILLARY is the most honest politician EVAHHHHH. No lying about anything coming g from That woman!!!

      HILLARY. HILLARY. HILLARY!!!

      1. jharp,

        When did you register as a Democrat?

        Are you taking back all the white supremacy?

        Thanks in advance.

      2. Hillary admits to dying her hair; Scott lies about losing his hair

  3. Most likely Prime Minister Cameron did diss President Obama. Why should he be any different from every other world leader. So Walker likely was telling the truth. Walker’s mistake was in going public with a private conversation. Cameron had to save face and so issued a perfunctory denial.

    1. And did you imagine this scenario of what happened just to give Walker a CYA excuse or should we simply assume that you are speaking from extensive personal experience of regularly dissing people in your private conversations rather than speaking to anything of real or actual substance?

    2. Uh.. actually David, you are wrong, we do know.

      Walker is lying. He repeated the Cameron story to me in a one on one conversation we had the day after his number ten meeting at a WEDC breakfast event here in London. It rang false to me then so I made a call to an old friend who is a Senior Tory MP who was actually at Number Ten that day. He said Walker’s claim was “complete fabrication”.

      Hillary Clinton may not be beloved in many international circles, but here on this side of the Atlantic there is a clear preference for her to be the next President over any of the current and potential occupants of the GOP Clown car.

      I don’t dislike Scott Walker personally, we knew each other back in the day when we both were involved with College Republicans in Milwaukee (Me at UWM, him at MU). Yet he is manifestly unqualified for the Presidency. And the fact is he is completely unprepared for the cross examination and scrutiny that will come with being a declared Presidential candidate. HIs patented “I’m not going to talk about that” responses are not going to work outside of hitting softballs on Sean Hanity’s show on Fox News.

      Pop the popcorn kids! It’s gonna be fun to watch!

      1. So… Just to clear things up, no one cares that hillary is the biggest liar out there. That her lies and obstruction literally led to the deaths of U.S. citizens. OK got it, Walker is the devil. HILLARY. HILLARY. HILLARY

              1. That’s easy Zach,

                He can’t stay on topic because the facts don’t back up his wingnut talking points. So he runs home to where he feels safe.. . BENGAHZI!!! ACORN!! FAST AND FURIOUS!! WHERE’S THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE?!!? AIIIIRRGGHHH!

                He is just following his role model Scott Walker, who when he gets caught flogging talking points that are lies, he just pretends it never happened and pivots to something else.

                So don’t bother John with facts… facts have a liberal bias don’t you know….

        1. No apparently you are still on the turnip truck..

          The reality based world must be really scary for you ….

          Don’t worry. head back over to. breitbart, you won’t have to deal with all those scary “facts”..
