Foreign policy used to be a Scott Walker weak point. Now it’s a highlight of his stump appeal

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- At the start of Scott Walker's quest to be president, foreign policy has been a source of trouble. The Wisconsin governor has appeared shaky talking about world events and had to explain some perceived blunders.

But as Walker opened his first campaign swing across South Carolina here in Columbia on Thursday, foreign policy emerged as the highlight of his stump speech. Walker's sharp, rat-a-tat critique of President Obama's foreign policy record drew a sustained and boisterous standing ovation from the crowd of 150 Republican activists at a party luncheon.

And it is supposedly a strong point with the Hillabeast?

The only woman dumber than she is Fauxahauntis.

No, wait, there’s Pelosi.

And Boxer.

And Debby Watzerface Shultz

And the entire female cast of CNN

Oh, forgot MSNBC.

Hmmmm, I seem to detect a pattern here.......

C Wife, I want to know WHY Walker switched positions. I need to hear the etiology of his conversions. Right now, I don’t fully trust him. Bob

I know that Mark Levin would like an interview with him. Where is he?

I think Perry would be a great president but he will not make it to the top of the ticket. I think that Scott Walker has a good shot - he’s battle tested and he’s in it to win it.

Why didn’t Walker IMMEDIATELY give a ‘thanks but no thanks’ thing to the recent support/endorsement for him by the muslim/islamic treasonous Grover Norquist? You know Grover right?....Agenda setter, policy maker and lobbyist for the American soil based muslim terrorist front group C.A.I.R. (His C.A.I.R work is just among many of his anti American, pro islamic dealings). I would think Walker would never want such ‘help’. But then again, maybe he does......

I understand a lot of opposition posting is done to stop the flow of campaign money from going to a candidate (other than your own) that’s caught on.

Somehow I just knew you would give it your best Harf/Psaki type twist and dance move and avoid answering the question.

Still can’t/won’t answer the simple question? Okay fine....we know why right?! Now, this Walker kid is in deep trouble if his toadies can’t handle that sort of easy question. What are they/you gonna do when the real tough ones start to come his way? Alinsky? Nice try!

“....Ingraham - I think a populist pitch is a winner across the country — in Hispanic, white, black communities, I’m telling you it is a winner. We can peel off some minority voters, focus on their wages, their renewal. I’m telling you, it’s a winner,” she said. “Not this old Chamber of Commerce faux-conservative big business message. That is a crony capitalist disaster. And I’m sorry, but that’s what the Bush folks represent and that’s what the Bush nomination will do. It will lose.”....

She’s described Walker. He’s going lift the nation and sweep the board. If Bush gets in we lose.

Darn right we will lose if that amnesty/illegal lover and New World Order, (just like his father Bush and brother Bush were/are before him), idiot puppet runs. Walker has to answer some questions before I am going to support him during the run up and primary season. If he is selected to run against Hillary in the general there is no question I’d vote for him. I don’t think there is a FReeper who wouldn’t.....at least I would hope that is the case.
