Here’s the thing. McCue is over his head in this political thing. If any of you knew him (I’ve known him since his days at UW-Oshkosh) he doesn’t deserve to be where he is. He got lucky. Because of his luck, he’s able to put some pretty good looking things on his resume and meet some great people along the way. If you would have asked him in 1997 what he would be doing in 10 years, he would have put down his flashlight that he used when he was a doorman at Molly’s in Oshkosh and probably would have told you he would be bartending at a bar in Milwaukee. I’m sure one of his frat brothers would have got him a job at some bar on Water St.

I used to consider him a friend until his head got to be too big to even walk. I’m surprised he is able to walk upright with the size of his head. Should he be mayor? Absolutely not. Should be even be a politician? Are you kidding me?

I moved to Cudahy in 2001 when I moved from Oshkosh. If I would have known McCue would eventually be the mayor, I wouldn’t have ever bought a house here. Now we just need to get through this. We need to make sure anything illegal McCue has done is found out and we need to get someone in the mayor office that has a clue. As for Ryan as a person. He’s a good guy, just not a good politician.

Personally, I’m a fan of Sifl and Olly:

As for the Public Employees entry, that’s a topic near and dear to my heart.

And ultimately, I choose topics that I find interesting, and I find the Cudahy recall situation interesting, because it seems to be driven by a very vocal minority.

The Muskego Recall just makes your Cudahy comments silly. It doesn’t serve your purpose to talk about it. All that bad mouth crg and the recall process out the window. All that complaining on the issue of one vote and they are going after a witch-hunt. All out the window into your backyard.
The truth is you are as much as a hypercritic as Greg. Muskego’s recall is ok because they are fighting against Wal-Mart. They are recalling and heads will roll for a vote on one issue. You don’t want to blog on it and Greg will not touch it except to talk about crg instead of the real issue.
A citizen group opposed to plans for a Wal-Mart Supercenter on Muskego’s northern end has organized a political action committee to begin the recall process against aldermen.

Muskego First filed preliminary paperwork this week to form the Muskego Exploratory Recall Committee and plans to refile Friday with the names of those they hope to recall, Muskego First co-coordinator John Walters said today.

The city’s Plan Commission approved plans Tuesday night for a 156,400-square-foot retail center and grocery after a contentious meeting that featured residents speaking both for and against Wal-Mart. Opponents frequently clashed with Mayor John Johnson.

The Supercenter will be located off Moorland Road near College Ave., across the street from the future GE Healthcare distribution center. The commission voted 6-1 in favor of the proposal, after adding a six-month review of the thornier issues, including the 24-hour operations.

Ald. Noah Fiedler, the only alderman on the Plan Commission, voted for the Wal-Mart proposal and will be the recall effort’s first target, said Orville Seymer, field operations director for CRG Network. Muskego First is a Network affiliate.

Fiedler said the Plan Commission did its job and “exhaustively considered” residents’ concerns related to the Supercenter’s building, site and operation, including hours of operation, landscaping, delivery truck route, lighting and noise.

Once the Muskego clerk receives the completed paperwork, the group will have 60 days to gather the petition signatures needed to trigger a recall. Johnson will not be eligible for recall until April 2009.

Milwaukee County Supervisor Ryan McCue welcomed U.S. Senator Barack Obama to Milwaukee County’s Pere Marquette Park. Sen. Obama was in town for campaign rallies, book signings and community events. “Sen. Obama is a true American leader, and it was a privilege to speak with him.” McCue said. McCue represents Cudahy, St. Francis, South Milwaukee and Oak Creek
