Today's Beastiable is Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, who has now announced his candidacy for the Presidency. He has said many beastly things, as admirably reported by Daily Kos' esteemed Puddytat. Thus, now that he has announced, he has earned his turn as one of Les Beastiables.

NOTE FOR NEW READERS: This series features a new Les Beastiables cartoon every Friday afternoon here at caucus99percent. We indulge in a little Franglish because the French are tres classy. But I digresse.

For serious source information, please join me below for the squirming of beasties on the hot seat. Then you'll be able to "cleanse your palate" with a cute photo before you leave.

In February of this year Walker, like many other potential candidates, spoke at the CPAC convention. And Walker, like many other potential candidates, promptly put his foot in his mouth. Then on March 1, appearing on Faux "News" Sunday, he tried to walk it back:

Walker said he was "not comparing" union protesters to the terrorist group known as ISIS.

"What I meant was it's about leadership, and the leadership we provided under extremely difficult circumstances.... To me, I apply that to saying, 'If I were to run and if I were to win and be commander-in-chief, I believe that kind of leadership is what's necessary to take on radical Islamic terrorism.'"

Oh, the arrogance! Right, you called out your capital cops to handle the "extreme difficulty" of Americans exercising their First Amendment rights to protest, which presumably you might support if they would just stay out of your building. That makes you tough enough to tackle ISIS. And, no doubt, an expert on the sociopolitical crises that may give rise to terrorism here and abroad. Quite possibly one of the worst walk-backs I've yet seen.

Beastliness remembered is beastliness held accountable! We will never forget. You may find other sayings by Governor Walker equally as bad or worse compared to the beastly sayings I've chosen. There are certainly plenty to choose from. In other words, your cringeage may vary. Please feel free to discuss.

As promised, just for fun is a photo of cute little weasels together! I don't think they like Scott either, do you?
