No, no, not his name calling when he labeled 100,000 teachers, nurses and firefighters "terrorists." The "shameful rhetoric" designation only applies when it's directed at Scotty, not when it's said by him.
"It wasn't just the protesters who engaged in such shameful rhetoric," (Walker) added, citing comments by Sen. Lena Taylor (D-Milwaukee) comparing him to Hitler and then-Sen. Spencer Coggs (D-Milwaukee) calling his plan to scale back collective bargaining for public workers "legalized slavery."

Dude rode in on the back of an unpaid intern.
Also? Unfortunate screen name dude. Might want to ask Skinner about a name amnesty before the campaign season really kicks off

his ride. Also, the screen name is worrisome, I have agree. I doubt it matters if I confess that I also share that family's last name. I am so sick of saying, "no relation", every time I am introduced.
