A Wisconsin Democrat Assemblyman turned to a Republican Assemblywoman in the middle of a legislative session Friday and said, "You are f--king dead."

Despite the following report from the Northwestern at 12:53 PM Monday, no major media outlet other than Fox News has covered this disgusting story:

Rep. Gordon Hintz, D-Oshkosh, called Rep. Michelle Litjens, R-Winneconne, Monday morning to apologize for his comments that Litjens described as containing an obscenity and the words “you’re dead.” Last week, he accepted responsibility for being issued an ordinance violation for visiting a massage parlor in Appleton that was the subject of a prostitution sting.

This should be reported to the po-leese, at least so it's on the record.

BLOGGER ON NY POST ARTICLE: These Wisconsin govt worker unions (and their supporters elsewhere) have no clue how their increasingly desperate behavior right now is being perceived by the general tax paying public. They come off as mean-spirited, uncivil, and in some cases violent; utterly clueless and uncaring about the reality of the economy; selfish and just plain greedy. Those unions should heed the First Rule: That is when you find yourself in a hole, you should stop digging.

That’s an excellent compilation of Obama’s thuggery on display. Can we think of even one single president in the entire history of the U.S. who has engaged in such violence-laced rhetoric? His own words are why his pleas for “civility” ring so hollow. It’s a classic “do as I say, not as I do” posture that is typical of progressives (for whom the ends have always justified the means).
