http://cognidissidence.blogspot.com/2012/02/which-walker-will-meet-obama.htmlOn Wednesday, when President Obama comes to Milwaukee to praise Master Lock for recognizing the quality products produced by their American union workers, Scott Walker plans on getting some face time.
My question is this: Which Walker will show up?
If Walker is smart, he could use the opportunity to learn something about job creation, an area which Obama is doing well and Walker is failing miserably at doing.
But no one has ever accused Walker of being smart, so I wouldn't be surprised if Walker tries to embarrass us all by pulling a Jan Brewer, just to look good to his base in preparation to the upcoming recall.
Look for Walker to do something stupid. He's good at that.

and if he is simply his snarky inappropriate self, then I hope Obama shows him up, as only he can do.

is the new sarcasm. Meaning that Republicans just don't get it.

on where the employees at Master Lock stand on Walker. And if negative... use it. I do hope our UAW brothers and sisters show enthusiastic support for Obama and drum Walker out of there or try and keep him out if possible.
