Questioning Scott Walker's Christianity.

DSC00169

That's a cropped and tweaked version of a photograph of mine that I originally posted here on February 25, 2011. As I said yesterday, I've decided to repost some of my old photographs to show people — as they take an interest in our Wisconsin governor — the abuse Scott Walker took back in 2011.

I chose this photograph because of the plentiful talk this past week about Walker's refusal to express an opinion about whether President Obama is a Christian. I wanted you to see this old sign — taped to the marble wall of the Wisconsin Capitol as the anti-Walker protests raged. Whoever made that sign did not merely express the opinion that Walker is not a Christian. He presumed to speak in the voice of Jesus telling Scott Walker what to do and in the voice of Scott Walker directly and explicitly rejecting Jesus.

"Walker, can I 'modestly' kick you in the nuts?"



As the nation turns its eyes to Scott Walker, I thought I'd start a new series, rerunning some of my old photographs that open a window to the past to give you something of a feeling for the abuse the man took back in 2011.
