"The PC crowd is humorless," Duffy, a former star of MTV's "The Real World" in the 1990s, tweeted. "For those offended by my 'communist' comment, I'll send a therapy dog to your 'safe place' of choice in Madison."

Madison Mayor Paul Soglin called Duffy a "liar," ''moron" and "charlatan."
"I'm probably giving him too much credit by calling him a moron since he is so adept in misleading the good people of his district, folks who deserve better in regards to jobs and the future of their children," Soglin said.
The only thing communist about Madison is that revenue generated there is redistributed to help economically struggling communities in Duffy's district, said Soglin, who led a delegation to Cuba in 1975 and gave Fidel Castro the key to the city. - emphasis mine.

Long past time to call a Commie a Commie. Funny that the ‘Rat Commies are after Russia for torpedoing H->!.

He’s right, that’s not communist. It’s socialist. I guess there is a difference.

A socialist is a communist who is lying about who they are.

"Their job is to build bridges, not burn them," Erpenbach said. "I expect that out of a talk show radio host but not a congressman."

The difference between Socialism and Communism is the difference between Seduction and Rape, in the end you still got screwed.

It’s not known as the “People’s Republic of Madison” for no reason.

It's equally ironic that many of the strongest anti-communists here, myself included, are taking Russia's side in the war against Islamocommunist terrorism.

Soglin is *still* mayor of Madistan? I didn’t even know he was still alive.
Further proof that the city fell into a time warp in the late 1960s from which it has never emerged.

LOL, can’t keep track of them...I guess we could add Austin in there as well as Boulder and Chicago!
A pox on them all (with an exception to the conservatives who may be living behind enemy lines)
