What Is Up with Wingers in Indiana?

Remember back at the height of the union protests in Wisconsin, one deputy Attorney General from Indiana got canned for suggesting Gov. Walker use “live ammunition” on the protestors.

Well now another genius, a deputy prosector in Johnson County named Carlos Lam has had to resign his office after investigative reporters in Wisconsin determined that during the height of the protests Lam sent Gov. Walker emails suggesting he stage a fake union-backed assassination attempt on Gov. Walker to turn public opinion against the state’s unions.
