Over at the Liberty’s Logic blog, “Soapbox Jill” has a recap of the Sheboygan Freedom Rally that took place on September 4, and in her recap one can find this nugget, courtesy of noted prostitute enthusiast Dick Morris (emphasis mine): Nationally known multi-faceted political commentator/analyst/writer Dick Morris dove right into the Wisconsin scene. “For [...]

The Onion…

Sometimes things happen in real life that if you made it up, no one would believe it. Today that happened, I had to re-check the story to make sure the source was not the onion. It wasn’t, its real, one simple quote speaks for itself!

“If you don’t hold us accountable, we’ll do [...]

When things get taken too far….

As pointed out by Jay Bullock over at his blog, J. Rawson Schaller, a contributor over at Badger Blogger, went off the deep end on Monday, targeting a regular commenter at Badger Blogger in a profanity-laced rant.

Patrick McIlheran likes Senator Plale too?

Ed Heinzelman — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 00:44:35 +0000

It gets really interesting when the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s resident Mad Hatter, Patrick McIlheran throws in with a Democratic candidate.

Now the republican party in Arizona is flat out admitting that they can’t win on ideas and are signing up homeless people to run as Green Party candidates. [...]

Proud Progressive — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 17:10:38 +0000

Chad Lee recently put out a TV commercial(how in the world did he raise enough for TV is another blog), but he rightly criticizes Incumbent Tammy Baldwin:

“Congress gave $700 billion of our tax dollars to Wall Street while they allowed 90,000 small businesses to go bankrupt. Tammy Baldwin’s vote for the Wall Street [...]

Zach — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 12:45:41 +0000

The Chief has nailed down the Ron Johnson strategy for winning in November: Avoid the press as much as possible. Meet only with friendly audiences. Spend a shitload on TV (and, later, direct mail):

Mixed messages!

Yeah, looks like Rep. Paul Ryan had a lot of fans of his “Roadmap for America’s Future” at a recent town hall meeting:
