Wisconsin's best cycling: Eat your heart out Tour de France
2011-08-08 23:15:00 If you’re like me, mornings are the enemy. It takes something pretty special to get me out of the bed before my preferred wake-up time (no earlier than 8:30).

Lefties Try to Smear Wisconsin's Judge Prosser... Again
2011-06-26 23:28:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Oh, the leftists thought they had him this time (again). So, they began a campaign to smear him (again). Turns out they were wrong (again). And their allegations mysteriously disappeared from the Internet after they found out they were wrong (again). The left tried once again to smear Wisconsin Supreme Court Judge David Prosser by claiming that he physically attacked another judge (naturally she's a crazed left-wing judge, too) in a closed-doors meeting late last week. Justice Ann Walsh Bradley actually charged Prosser with "choking her." Notice she did so only in the press, though. Prosser, of course, is denying it all... Read the rest at RightPundits.com....

Judge Prosser Declared Winner, Left Loses BIG In Wisconsin Union Fight
2011-04-18 18:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston A county canvas of votes for Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice is finished and the result shows that Judge David Prosser, a 12-year veteran of the courts, won reelection over his union-backed opponent. Judge David Prosser's total now officially stands at 752,323 votes to challenger Joanne F. Kloppenburg's 745,007. This spread represents a 0.488% margin and at less than .5% state law provides for a recount effort that does not require a filing fee. Prosser's campaign issued a press release saying they were all "very excited" over the results. His challenger said that she will fall back and try to make a decision if they will bother to file for a recount....
Wisconsin Union's Boycott Likely Illegal
2011-04-03 19:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Government union members of AFSCME Council 24 are circulating letters to local businesses in southeast Wisconsin threatening them that if they don't come to immediate and vocal support of government unions the businesses will be targeted for attack. The union says it won't be satisfied with statements of neutrality, either. An AFSCME spokesman told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that only full-throated support would keep the union from attacking businesses. The union told businesses that if they didn't put a sign in their store windows proclaiming their support of government unions, then the union would target the business. "Failure to do so will leave us no choice but (to) do a public boycott of your business. And...
Wisconsin Judge Maryann Sumi & Her (SEIU, AFL-CIO) Political Operative
2011-03-23 15:25:00 -By LaborUnionReport.com There's nothing like a judge's love for her son to cloud her otherwise-cloudy judgment. On Friday, unions scored a temporary victory to maintain their ability to collect union dues from Wisconsin public employees when Judge Maryann Sumi (the same judge who refused to order striking teachers back to work in February) issued a Temporary Restraining Order preventing the implementation of Wisconsin's new law governing public-sector unions. Via the Wall Street Journal: Judge Maryann Sumi said a lawsuit filed by the Dane County district attorney had enough merit for her to issue a temporary restraining order to prevent Secretary of State Doug La Follette from publishing the bill while she reviews the case....

2011-03-18 15:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston We may have won a small victory in Wisconsin with the brave work of Governor Scott Walker and his state's Republican leadership but there is a greater battle looming. There is a bigger crisis coming for the states as the major troubles of pensions/unfunded liabilities/debts come to a head and the unions are pushing hard to force us all to pay them off instead of reform it all.

Union Abuses in Wisconsin
2011-03-10 15:00:00 From the office of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker... Madison-- Today Governor Walker's office released more specific examples and new details to show how collective bargaining fiscally impacts government and how reforming collective bargaining can improve government. A Year's Worth of Pay for 30 Days of Work Under the Green Bay School District's collectively bargained Emeritus Program, teaches can retire and receive a year's worth of salary for working only 30 days over a three year period. This is paid in addition to their already guaranteed pension and health care payouts. At the average annual salary for a Green Bay teacher of $51,355, this amounts to a daily rate of pay of $1,711.83, or an hourly rate of $213.98. Since most...
Obama's Chicago Machine Helping Wisconsin Fleebaggers?
2011-03-09 16:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Newsradio 620 in Milwaukee has a shocking story about the dirty underground efforts by the Chicago political machine loyal to Rahm Emanuel and President Obama that is apparently applying its dark arts again, this time assisting the leftist, fleebagging Wisconsin State Senators in their efforts to thwart the democratic process in the Badger State. WTMJ is reporting that State Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R, Juneau) is saying that organizers attached to Obama is purposefully trying to help the recall effort against GOP lawmakers in Wisconsin....

Who is Footing Wisconsin Fleebagger's Bills?
2011-03-06 19:35:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The expenses for the Fleebagging Wisconsin Democratic Senators are mounting. It's been about a week's worth of expenses since they've gone on the lamb. So, who is paying for all this? There has been rampant speculation that third party donors and union lobbyists have been slipping these Wisc. State Senators some money to pay their fleebagging costs. If they are this is clearly illegal. The relevant Wisconsin statue is from Subchapter III, Chapter 13, Wisconsin Statutes (13.625), the prohibited practices section. (1) No lobbyist may: (a) Instigate legislative or administrative action for the purpose of obtaining employment in support or opposition thereto. (b) Furnish to any agency official or legislative employee of the state or to...

2011-03-03 23:06:00 -By Warner Todd Huston UPDATED: Teacher sends his hate down the memory hole, deletes blogs Racine middle school teacher Jack Senzig is exactly the sort of person that makes all Wisconsin teachers look bad. His selfishness and hatred is so palpable that it seems his very existence is now dedicated to disgorging it all upon his family, friends, and, worse, his students. In fact, his hatred for everyone that disagrees with him has gotten so bad that he cannot resist forcing images of torture, murder, and evisceration onto his students.

Absurd: Leftists Fool People Into Fearing That Wisconsin Budget Bill is Cra
2011-02-26 18:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Wisconsin's MacIver Institute reports on how left-wing radicals are fooling sick people in Wisconsin into imagining that Governor Walker's budget proposal is meant to kill all sick people. Here is one of those poor people that have been bamboozled into imagining that they are going to be killed by the state of Wisconsin because Governor Walker is attempting to instill some fiscal sanity in the Badger State. Ann Althouse also has a video proving how little these left-wingers care about war memorials, too. In the Wic. State House is a memorial to Wisconsin's soldiers and these leftists were using the war memorial as a backstop upon which to paste their left-wing protest signs....
We Need to Pay Attention to Madison, Wisconsin Right Now!
2011-02-26 00:56:00 This is a news site, but not a hard core, government or economic news site. The specialty is sports, but what's going on in Madison, Wisconsin right now is SO BIG it transcends everything American, and it affects all the games we love. Collective bargaining may not be the sexiest topic to read about, but disputes of this nature may prevent us from even having a NFL and NBA season next year. So it is something we should all be paying attention to. If the middle class weren't endangered enough already, the elites of this nation are trying to render it extinct; in order to grab more money and power for themselves. And in the process start America down...
Wisconsin Union Facts
2011-02-25 19:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Thee has been a lot of confusion over just what the heck is going on between Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and the unions in the Badger State. Who is doing what to whom is information that seems to be a bit hard to come by. What does Walker plan to do? What does his bill mean? For those that want a good wrap up of exactly what is going on no better post than that of Brian Fojtik's over at Pundit League can be found. Please do take a quick jump over to Wisconsin Union Wars: The Facts and read all the details. Also, if you want a pretty good review of Walker's record, take a...

All Teachers Unions Must Fall, Not Just Wisconsin's
2011-02-24 18:30:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The lies that have been peddled by the unions in Wisconsin are legion. They are claiming that Walker has a budget surplus he's hiding, he isn't. They have been claiming that it "isn't about the money," but it is. They have even claimed to be "sick" by having real doctors issue falsified sick letters so that they can play hooky from school, shutting down both Wisconsin's government and its schools. These lefties have also claimed that Governor Walker has surprised everyone with his anti-union drive. On the that last one, nothing could be further than the truth. Governor Walker's entire political career has been filled with similar pronouncements, policies, and attempts at policies. But there is...
Wisconsin Gov. workers overpaid and Gov. Walker's prankster conversati
2011-02-24 11:22:00 Wisconsin government employees are overpaid relative to their private sector counterparts. This is likely the case for their total compensation, salary plus benefits. Sophisticated economic studies support this theory and conclusion. Gov. Walker's phone conversation with a liberal prankstrer contained little to embarass Gov. Walker. This is based on a comparison to private conversations of President Kennedy.
No Truth In Left's Wisconsin Union Support or Its State Budget Surplus
2011-02-21 18:45:00 -By Warner Todd Huston First came the disgrace of supposedly intelligent teachers in Wisconsin sporting hundreds of signs calling Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker "Hitler" and now comes the entire liberal blogosphere and it's echo chamber in the left-media establishment claiming that Gov. Walker has "ginned up" a budget shortfall when he actually has a budget surplus. One wonders when the childish hyperbole and lies will ever stop for the left? Lefty TV yakker Rachel Maddow, ever hooked into the most goofy left-wing talking point du jour and always ready to dutifully regurgitate same, recently made a big point about Walker's mythic surplus, sneeringly saying that, "Wisconsin is fine... I am not kidding." On her Feb 17 show, Maddow breathlessly informed...

Wisconsin State Senators Hide in IL to Prevent Voting
2011-02-19 00:39:00 From the Chicago Tea Party... Stand with Governor Scott Walker This Saturday in Wisconsin What is happening in Wisconsin right now could prove to be a turning point in the fight against big government. Democrat State Senators in the state of Wisconsin have decided that the public sector unions are more important than representative democracy and the consent of the people. The voters in Wisconsin elected a Republican Governor, U.S. Senator and state legislature in November, but the Democrats don't appear to think elections matter. The public sector unions are proving they are only interested in one thing: power....
While Illinois Goes Deeper in Financial Hole, Wisconsin Addresses Problem T
2011-02-17 04:51:00 Wisconsin's Governor Walker Takes on Public-Sector UnionsNewly elected Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is taking necessary steps to cut the Wisconsin budget deficit. He is doing things like asking Public Sector Unions to chip in a bit more for health benefits and making union membership optional. While the Wisconsin governor is doing things fiscally responsible, here in Illinois we are going in the complete opposite direction. Are union backed governor Quinn is making things worse. He is looking for more state income taxes, more state borrowing, and supporting public sector unions even more....

Badgers Crush Northwestern; Wisconsin Takes Part 1 of Chicago Doubleheader
2011-01-23 20:50:00 As extremely lopsided as the college football meeting was between these teams, the Northwestern vs. Wisconsin college basketball contest was even more one-sided. As you might have heard, there is a "little football game" between the two NFL franchises overlapping the Badgers and Wildcats fan bases. In fact, this game was even moved up a half hour to accommodate those wishing to watch the Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears for the right to reach the NFL title game. The game was such a complete route, they were given plenty of extra time to leave Welsh-Ryan Arena to find their NFC Championship viewing destination....

Jereme Richmond Doesn't Play; Illini Lose at Wisconsin
2011-01-15 22:55:00 Despite the presence of two nationally ranked teams, exciting and entertaining college basketball this was not. The game being played in this Big Ten basketball contest was like the slush, snow, ice and stagnant dirty water outside the Kohl Center- slow, hard to navigate, sludge and drudgery.For the Illini at least, there was never any flow. As unexciting as the first meeting (won by Illinois 69-61) was, this was even more wallowed in mire. The #20 Badgers got revenge on the #16 Illini from their first encounter 76-66, despite shooting just 1-12 from behind the arc in the first half. Yet Bo Ryan's team still led by 2 at the break. This was a continuation of the first meeting;...
