Shortly after the Cleveland Cavaliers’ record fell to 1 win and 2 losses in their best of seven NBA playoff series against the Orlando Magic, Cavaliers guard Mo Williams guaranteed the Cavaliers would win their series against the Magic: ”Yeah, we’re down 1-2 but there’s nobody on this team [who thinks], definitely not myself [...] Earlier this week, I wrote about a rumor State Representative Mark Honadel might be retiring after his current term in office expires; however it appears that rumor is false, as Rep. Honadel himself explained: It was brought to my attention that a rumor was published on this website saying that I may not run for [...] As noted by The Chief, Todd Lohenry seems to think America is a Christian nation. To prove his point, Lohenrycited the preambles of each state’s constitution, but the only problem is that the word Christian is only mentioned once in the Constitutions of the respective 50 states. Sure, the words “God” and “the Creator” are [...] As reported by Steve Schultze of the All Politics Blog, Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker touted a summer jobs program at an outdoor ceremony at Washington Park on Friday. However, as Walker was busy touting the program, it’s worth noting Walker vetoed $100,000 of the funding for the program in the 2009 budget, but the [...] I know this might turn the world upside down for some readers of this blog, but as I’ve thought about Wisconsin’s current budget woes – and the effects of those budget woes – I’ve come to a revelation.

Van Hollen open a fraud probe to investigate whether administrative fraud has occurred in Milwaukee County’s operation of several social safety net programs. Not surprisingly, Walker called the request “politica,” despite [...] At the risk of spamming my own blog, I’m going to post about “Walk Now for Autism Speaks.” As some of you may know, my son Nicholas is autistic, and on July 11, 2009, Patti, Nicholas, Alexis and I will be walking at the State Fair Park to raise money for autism research and awareness. [...] The Zoo Interchange, the junction of I-94, I-894 and Highway 45 in Milwaukee County, is the busiest interchange in the state, and it’s also in need of reconstruction. The cost to reconstruct the Zoo Interchange is estimated to be 2.1 to 2.3 billion dollars, and given the current budget problems our state is facing, work [...] Scott Walker says he wants voters to “Believe in Wisconsin Again.” However, as Michael Horne of MilwaukeeWorld points out, Walker’s gubernatorial campaign website wasn’t designed by a Wisconsin design firm, leaving me to wonder if Walker “gets it” when it comes to putting Wisconsin first.
