The governor and his allies always maintained that the investigation was little else but a political jihad against them. Now a former Wisconsin prosecutor is saying that the union-allied wife of the District Attorney was really the main reason for the long, convoluted, and shady investigation.

The case was never successfully defended as a legitimate probe into corruption, having always looked more like a political witch hunt. And now, a new report at Legal Newsline may have revealed why: The Milwaukee DA’s wife, a union operative infuriated by Walker’s policies, was behind the whole thing.

A former Wisconsin prosecutor has come forward to charge that Milwaukee DA John Chisholm was goaded by his union-member wife to keep the pressure on Walker as he carried out his campaign promises to cure the budget problems that he faced when he was elected Governor.

The prosecutor, who wishes to stay anonymous to protect himself from retaliation, says that the partisan animus he saw in the Milwaukee DA was shocking. “I admired him [Chisholm] greatly up until this whole thing started,” he said. “But once this whole matter came up, it was surprising how almost hyper-partisan he became… It was amazing… to see this complete change.”

The former official also noted that after Walker’s election, the DA’s office became extremely partisan against him—with many of the employees siding with unions, even to the extent of attending anti-Walker rallies sponsored by unions.

And once again it becomes the duty of right-thinking analysts to stand up and firmly say, “Poppycock!”

Here are five of the most egregious myths about conservatism:

1. The conservative movement is cracking up.

The primary fights between regular Republicans and tea party candidates reflect vitality, not decay. If the conservative party (that is, the Republican Party) were as close to interment as liberals say, political candidates would be vying for the nomination of a third party such as the libertarians. They aren’t.

Liberals are mistaking diversity for division, and today the conservative movement is more diverse than ever, with names such as Jindal, Rubio, Cruz, Martinez, Tim Scott, Rand Paul, etc. The movement is expanding, not contracting, as evidenced in annual gatherings such as the traditionalist CPAC, which attracts 10,000, and the libertarian Freedom Fest, which draws more than 2,000 people.
