Mark Salter, who was a top adviser on the 2008 presidential campaign of Sen. John McCain (R), is not a fan of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R). On Thursday, Salter went on Facebook and posted an article criticizing a comment Walker made about the Islamic State jihadist group (also known as ISIS or ISIL) at the Conservative Political Action Conference. Salter added a colorful comment. "I want to like him but Scott Walker is kind of a dumb ass," Salter wrote. During the 2008 race, Salter became known as an outspoken staffer who sent reporters colorful missives Politico dubbed "Saltergrams." He did not respond to a request for comment about his post from Business Insider. At CPAC, Walker pointed to his experience weathering massive protests against his administration when he was asked how he would handle ISIS if he were president. "We need a leader with that kind of confidence," Walker said. "If I can take on 100,000 protesters, I can do the same across the world." Walker is a top Republican contender in the 2016 presidential election. In recent weeks he has gone from a relative dark horse to leading several polls. View Salter's Facebook post below:

Meh. Walker is just finding a way to work "unions" into every speech, much as Giuliani couldn't utter a sentence that didn't contain the words "9/11" on the campaign trail in 2007. It's just a campaign finding its legs and drilling its strongest appeal home with voters and activists. This is pure free media so Walker is establishing his brand before someone else does. But let's just review who this clown, Salter, does support and work for as a way to measure his opinions of how ready a candidate is to be the GOP nominee in any election. McCain Greatest Hits, circa 2008. And he's had an unbroken string of similar nonsense ever since. Partying with terrorists in Syria, inciting yet another civil war after a coup in Ukraine, his and Lady Lindsey's humiliation when they went to Egypt to beg the military to leave Morsi in power, his appetite for the death of innocents is endless. There is literally no war the Stain does not crave to fight with every fiber of his being. His warmongering is so extreme that it has to be considered a form of mental illness.
