Winning Battles!

WOW - what a LONG drive to work - there were 7 cars off the road between Columbus and Sun Prairie! As I was driving I was thinking this is the worst I have ever seen 151 but U did not want to say that out loud! Then DJ says "This is the worst I have ever seen 151".

The other lane seemed better but in order to get there I had to get out of my tracks and jump over the . . I don't know what you all the 6 inches of snow that line the lanes. I was cruising at 40mph catch up to cars and by the time I was in the left hand lane I was going 30 and just hanging on to control!! SHEESH!! Took 1 hour and 45 minutes to get to work more then twice as long!

In other news Governor Walker is quietly euthanizing inconsequential and redundant Public Servants before the Union thugs catch wind of it.

Thank you Onion for letting me steal an idea.

But let's get serious.

In reality - Wisconsin is winning! You can tell by the news conferences (called pressers by the media) which appear at random times whenever Walker feels threatened . . .which seems to be every day now.

The newest problem is that he PROMISED that he would NEVER negotiate but it seems he is caving in and HAS BEEN negotiating.  Then when things are looking promising  he threatens the Wis 14 with arrest.  Which actually would be contempt of court if he did arrest anybody for a non-felony!

ALL the polls - even by conservative leaning pollsters are against Walker and conservative pro-Walker newspapers like the Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel are having anti-Walker headlines!  He is losing this war.  Wisconsin has won ALL the battles!

BUT - Michigan - look what their Republic Governor is proposing - The Governor, at his whim, can declare ANY town as being in an emergency  fiscal situation.  And when he declares it he has the power to REPLACE the towns government for people of HIS choosing.  Furthermore - he can actually unincorporate the town, actually dissolving the town OR merge into another town.  CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

For instance - he could dissolve Columbus and make it part of Waterloo using the Waterloo Police department, OR - just replace the City Council and Mayor and everybody else with anybody he wants! (If Columbus was in Michigan I suppose).

So much for democracy!

HUGE rally this Saturday - rumors and spin have it a 150,000.

  1. Several ditch cars, stuck cars, and a fully jackknifed Kobussen Coach on Hwy. 73 around 8am. I have AWD and spankin' new tires, and I was losing control on a straight stretch at 20mph.
    Tornado season cannot get here fast enough.
    This may be the winter that drives me to drink.
