I’ll admit I’m not “choked” up by this.
Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser announced Wednesday that he’s retiring on July 31 after nearly 18 years on the high court — including some of its most turbulent — and four decades in public life.
The retirement hands GOP Gov. Scott Walker a second opportunity to appoint a new justice and put his imprint on the state’s high court with a jurist who could then stand for election in 2020. Prosser was a member of the court’s conservative, 5-2 majority and Walker’s appointment wouldn’t necessarily change that dynamic.
Sorry dude…scooped you!
Think Prosser being prominently mentioned in the John Doe filing before SCOTUS might have sped this resignation in him? Sure adds up to me.
Glad we’re on the same page here, I’d guess this is the motivating factor until something else is learned, unlikely as that scenario of discovering the truth from Prosser might be. It is just who these people are, reprehensible, cowardly.

Following Ed’s lead, I see my cynic scooped yours by 12 hours. ;^)
