Schultz rips Pearce for his crazy talk on Brahm Resnik’s Sunday Square-Off
Just another reminder of what the local Republinuts — led by neo-Nazi-huggin’ state Senate President-elect Russell Pearce — have in mind for you one million-plus folks down on your luck, or those about to be in this economy: No Medicaid.
