Think Progress (That George Soros Place) has been trying to gin up a controversy – ok, lie up a contraversy – that Wisconsin State Justice David Prosser tried to choke fellow Justice Ann Bradley. However we have learned that it was in fact Bradley that tried to attack Prosser and Prosser was simply defending himself.

“”She charged him with fists raised,” the source said.

Prosser “put his hands in a defensive posture,” the source said. “He blocked her.”

In doing so, the source said, he made contact with Bradley’s neck.”

Others who witnessed the event confirm this version of the story.

This wouldn’t be the first time that Bradley lost it during arguments. Sources within the courthouse say she’s a known hothead who constantly berates clerks and other staffers. Prosser has a huge target on his back because of the union case this last spring and one could even say that Bradley who’s election was heavily funded by unions might just have been a set up.

We’ll see.
