In a digital display of discomfort, Rep. Christine Sinicki, D-Milwaukee, posted her unfiltered reaction to Gov. Scott Walker’s State of the State address on Facebook Wednesday night.

The post read, “OMG…this speech is so full of shit. Wish I could get up and walk out.”

When asked about Sinicki’s comments at the Democratic Response to the address, Assembly Minority Leader Peter Barca, D-Kenosha, said he would prefer to take substantive questions on the speech itself.

“You can ask Rep. Sinicki,” Senate Minority Leader Chris Larson, D-Milwaukee, said.

After receiving several negative Facebook messages, Sinicki posted a clarification.

She posted again an hour later saying she had received numerous negative messages, including one from a republican staffer calling her a “twit.”

Sinicki later posted that she had received a message notifying her the original post had been removed because it was flagged for pornography.
