In another sinister attempt to restrict voter rights in the State of Wisconsin, State Representative Jeff Stone of Greenfield introduced a new bill that is quietly but quickly moving through the state assembly.
As I posted earlier one of the points in the bill limits recalling elected municipal and school board officials to instances […]
Recall Memo: June 5: Endorsements
And it goes without saying…but I am saying it anyway!
Tom Barrett for Governor
Mahlon Mitchell for Lieutenant Governor
State Senate District 13: Lori Compas
State Senate District 21: John Lehman
State Senate District 23: Kristen Dexter
State Senate District 29: Donna Seidel
Not too long ago…at the 8 month or so point in his two year ‘balanced budget’…Governor Walker filled a projected budget deficit of $143 million by making additional cuts to state spending of $123 million dollars. The largest portion of these reductions were taken from the UW system, $46 million to be exact!
From a […]
One of the self declared crowning achievements of Scott Walker’s time as governor, is how he ‘balanced’ his first biennial budget (which is I believe, a state constitutional requirement, but never mind that). He touts this accomplishment at every rally, speech and prominently at both debates. BUT…just 8 months or so into the FIRST year […]

There is only one problem with that…it’s a flat out fabrication made possible […]
In their Saturday morning coverage of the Recall Gubernatorial Debate, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel included this quote from Governor Walker:
Walker said the law change has led to savings for taxpayers – his administration has pegged those at more than $1 billion from workers having to pay more for benefits and schools being able […]
