DNC chairwoman: Walker 'has given women the back of his hand'
(CNN) - The chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee used domestic violence analogies while attacking Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin on Wednesday.
At an event on women's issues in Milwaukee, Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz blasted Walker for his policies, saying he "has given women the back of his hand."

this horrible woman is the nasty, hateful face of the democrat party. and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse than nancy pelosi. i guess the more desperate the democrats get, the more their true nature comes out. does anybody really have any doubt that people like this would also misuse the irs to attack their political reasons?
My sympathies go out to the poor slob that has to live with this wretched woman. He must be deaf, dumb and blind to be able to put up with her.
Scott walker is one of the worst politicians ever! He cheats to win, and I just don't see honestly how that translates into good governance. And why so many are willing to accept that, and still vote for him is scary.
Hmm, nothing better than Walker and Wasserman-Schultz? How about a post about the widow in AZ who defended herself against a home invasion?
Her tone my be impolite, but her message is true. Walker cares nothing about women, minorities or public servants. If the Kock boys say jump, he says ""HOW HIGH"?????
Male victimhood versus female sisterhood? Male superiority versus female suppression? Rah-Rah, Reince Priebus.
This is an absurd comment meant to slur someone with different opinions. It is a common ploy by some Democrats to whip up support by creating a fake "War on Women" story. It is no different than calling someone a racist because they don't agree with Obama's policies.
Lol, all the angry posts here tell me teabaggers just adore women. Women that keep their mouth shut and don't make a fuss.
According to a recent report commissioned by two major Republican groups, including Crossroads GPS, women view the Republican party as “intolerant,” “lacking in compassion” and “stuck in the past.” So it is not just Walker who gives women the back of his hand.

Uh, because a home invasion has nothing to do with politics?
You don't see an article about it for the same reason that you don't see an article about the kid tasered to death.

You didn't include the posts from the male gender pretending to be female. They too are angry - and too stupid to understand the folly of their affectation.

Whazzat?,
Oh, sorry. This comes under the heading of BE SURE BRAIN IS ENGAGED BEFORE OPEN MOUTH. When you have nothing positive to say you have lost the game. Desperate Debbie??
-----------------------------------
Wow. Proof positive that some folks just don't listen to what they actually say. Talk about hypocrisy. Wow.
Will the women who have been slapped by the back of his hand please come forward.
I can't believe that she didn't mention that Scott Walker also kicks puppies and steals candy from babies too. She must have toned it down a bit for this speech.
@ tom l, funny how you never commented on how condescending and arrogant Reince Priebus is when he comments, yet, here you are again, tarnishing your halo of independence again about relatively mild comment from Wasserman-Schultz. Btw, its not kicks puppies and steals candy: he stabs puppies and performs medical experiments on them before eating them.
Humm,
Let's look at the Cold Hard facts. If I remember correctly Governor Walker looked at the State coffers and saw tons of Red Ink. So he went to the leglsators and said either we do something or start handing out pink slips. It seems the democrats, who were in the minority left the state because they didn't want to pass the needed legistation. However it was passed, the state is now in the black, and a whole bunch of people left the union. On the re-call election Walker got more votes than the first time. Now if the Liberal's in Washington would get the message.
This lady is smart and sharp. The haters can shove it. She tells it like it is. The GOP men hate women who are independent and can take care of themselves. Remember they want women to be seen and not heard.

Let's look at the facts, then. Back in 2010, Walker promised 250,000 jobs during his first term. He's just barely hit 100,000 jobs, and Wisconsin is dead last among Midwestern states in economic growth,

about relatively mild comment from Wasserman-Schultz.

Using terms associated with domestic violence against woman to describe a political opponent is "relatively mild"??? Well, now we know why these types of horrendous statements and lies by the leftist Democrats juts keep getting worse and worse. I guess we can now expect the Democrats to start accusing Republicans of beheading women and whipping them if they don't wear full coverage burqas! It truly shows how morally bankrupt the leftist Democrats are. There is simply NO LIMIT to their hate speech. And these are the people that want to lead this country? Scary.

co-sign... mr. independent once again throwing his support behind republicants despite his silence (or defense) when republicant candidates say things like 'legitimate rape' and put forth insane medical theories like a woman's body having the ability to shut down non consensual fertilization.
P.S. I don't believe walker has ever been videotaped kicking a puppy... but if he were, there would be multiple tea bagger posts on here defending his actions (and there would be tom i in his cheerleader outfit- "Give me an 'R'"... give me an 'E'....give me a 'P'.....(etc). "What's that spell?... Libertarian!")
Give me a friggin break!

Sorry, Big Tom, my man, but I think you're wrong. "Tom L" frequently does comment on those types of articles. He's usually standing up, applauding what was said about a Democrat.
Don't laugh, I'm sure the CEO who got canned for kicking a puppy was a Republican.
I think the gop are morally bankrupt, they cut snap, over 50% of recipients were children, and did it for more top earners tax breaks. And aren't you willing to accept the fact he cheated, and broke what little campaign finance laws left, just because he hasn't been charged, the feds as much as said so, he had seperate hardline phones installed to try to hide it, these are the people you want running our country, I'll take a slightly over the top comment before that BS.
Why is it that the political candidates totaly forget that its for the people they are supposed to be doing something? Not a single word about what they will do after get elected? But hyping about trivial things like end of world stuff? Or over doing it on things that have no bearing on the real problems.? All they are caring about is any way to stay out of un employment line.. Or worse. Fade into a nobody fast.. A usless has been.. Thats all any of them are after.. Cushy do nothing job..
@Rudy-Guns and Gun Control are not political topics anymore?
