Fox News Lies About Violent Protests In Wisconsin
#11
Yes, I would go to dinner with those folks. Maybe I'll send them some pizza. They are mad at Sen. Glenn Grothman because he went on national TV and called them "slobs" who were just college students having a party. Are those 40 and 50 year-olds all still in college?

I'm sure that scene made the Senator uncomfortable for a few minutes, but he'll be OK. I don't condone harassment, and it was good that the Democratic assemblyman came to the rescue and diffused the tension.

And you were up in arms because someone put plus signs on a paper map. Life has it own way of evening things out.

Did someone threaten the senator's life? I must have missed that.

I don't recall getting "up in arms" over half-term's map.

I think your concern for the senator may be a bit misplaced.

"State Senator Glenn Grothman says he wasn't scared.

But the Republican lawmaker, who was loudly heckled by protesters as he struggled to get into the locked-down state Capitol Tuesday, found the incident ironic because, he said, he actually respects the protesters.

"They are slobs," he said. "But I don't hate these people for being slobs. I don't mind nice slobs."

The conservative West Bend Republican, an outspoken supporter of Gov. Scott Walker's controversial plan to limit collective bargaining for public workers, said he normally likes to walk through the crowds of protesters who have occupied the Capitol for more than two weeks. But after Walker's budget address Tuesday night, he left to talk to a group of life insurance salesmen at a hotel across the street and — like just about everyone else — couldn't get back into the locked building when he returned."
