The Puffery and Bluster of David Woodard


The Puffery

Quote source:  Wisconsin State Journal

Scott Walker returns to South Carolina for Freedom Summit.  (Wisconsin State Journal, 5/10/2015)

I can just picture him distributing about 50 business cards.
David Woodard, a Clemson University political science professor and GOP consultant who attended Walker’s event speech and a private luncheon with about 50 people, said party insiders buzzed the most about Walker and Rubio vying for the mantle of “the most conservative candidate who can win.”

The Bluster.

Clemson prof & GOP consultant arrested for assaulting Police.  (Palmetto Journal, 3/22/2002)
According to the police reports, Woodard had also asked what was going on in the area behind the barricades. When told it was MTV, Woodard said "I know MTV and they're a bunch of crap too!" 

The police reports indicate that when stopped after hitting the police officer Woodard stated "You don't know who you are messing with, I'm gonna make you wish you'd never tried to stop me."

The police reports indicate that there were several witnesses, including Clemson students as well as members of the MTV crew.
