Dean Skelos, Alec Baldwin Engage in War of Words on Twitter

Senate Majority Leader Dean Skelos, R-Rockville Centre, and Alec Baldwin engaged in a war of words on Twitter recently after Skelos called out Baldwin for his support of Occupy Wall Street, according to published reports.

From Newsday:

"The liberal celebrity and the New York Legislature's top Republican traded barbs for a second day, competing Wednesday via the social networking site. Skelos (R-Rockville Centre) called Baldwin a "hypocrite" for supporting Occupy Wall Street protesters and "raging" against corporate profits, while doing commercials for a major credit card company.

"Baldwin called Skelos a "Republican tool" and a "professional" twister of facts, and challenged him to appear at a joint news conference -- with his tax returns in hand."
