The Dropkick Murphys, the Boston rockers known for their left-wing politics, have voiced outrage after union-busting Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin played their music at a conservative forum. We literally hate you!!! Love, Dropkick Murphys, & quot; the band tweeted over the weekend. Walker, who became a national name for stripping most public-union workers of their collective bargaining power, took the stage to the Dropkick Murphys & #039; music Saturday at the Iowa Freedom Summit, a conservative gathering seen as a venue for White House aspirants to test the waters. The Dropkick Murphys, who mix punk elements with Irish-inspired melodies, in 2011 released the song & quot;Take & #039;Em Down & quot; in support of Wisconsin workers fighting against Walker & #039;s anti-union agenda.
