SOTU 2012…Disney Meets Washington

sotu header

As I tucked my kids in for bed last night I was not the only one telling fairytales and painting dreams of a most vivid and vibrant future and a “happily ever after.” I was joined by President Obama in fantasy and fiction telling. As we lay our “kids” to bed in the hopes they are nourished in the dreams and alternate realities we lay out for them, what did we really say? NOT MUCH!! Although I was preaching from the gospel of Disney. Mr. Obama’s fairytale should have come from the Brothers Grimm!

An Inconvenient Truth: Wisconsin Recalls are Draining Us!

recall party

Here we go again with another recall cycle. This time the next up to the execution block is Governor Scott Walker. However this recall won’t be as easy as some people seem to think. There are a lot of factors that will not be reflected in the polls or by the media. Whether you are Republican or Democrat there is much to think about before you sign your name to any recall petition or refute the whole process entirely.

Wednesday Rants. WW Wednesday All Over The Place!

WW is all over the place today talking politics! Is Obama the antichrist? The truth behind Barrett’s axing firefighters. A little sport-that was a sucker punch you know! Some things on the horizon, new comers to local politics and a little humor and a crazed Lena Taylor make for a fun and wet WW Wednesday!

Recall Recap Part I

OPen 4 business

Captain’s log Star date 10 August 2011…dust settled in the wake of a political frenzy known as Wisconsin. The new home and birth place of Battleground USA 2012. The quest for common sense and a return to government for the people, by the people, of the people was waged and fought here. Many brave souls fought a valiant fight against a mindless Borg but ultimately were defeated by the silent majority of Vulcans, the enlightened thinkers, the Wisconsin voters….

HOOD WINKED! In the hood, more and more people are starting to see 2+2 DO NOT = 4.

People are waking up to understand that supporting rich union white men means less and less WE get in government benefits and discretionary spending for those of us needing government assistance just to get by these days.
I can only think what one thing remains constant.

The DEMOCRAT Party’s Choke Hold On the Black Community!

While You’re Waiting for Superman, Wonder Woman Is Already Here!

We all agree we want to see our kids get ahead but the main sticking point is the wasteful spending in the districts and the notion that the unions run the show not the taxpayers. It is a simple concept, not one student should go without out if our districts would be fiscally responsible and not beholden to unions. With all the money we have spent for public education, we are still seeing little progress and even more waste and abuse of tax money. When people recommend merit-based pay or vestment (a secured position) based on achievement, the unions run away from these things. Why do they keep fighting for the rights of bad employees, wasteful boards, and downright criminals? Why do they not embrace forward thinking programs regarding the competency of their teachers, secretaries, and all public education workers? Or for that matter fight for programs that are educating our kids effectively before fighting for Viagra?

This is Not Your Parents Union Anymore!

The New Union Cartels. For the past few weeks our state has been engaged in a debate over unions and their right to Collectively Bargain and for fair concessions that will keep Wisconsin “open for business.”
But fast-forward to 2011, and see what unions have become. They are equal to the fat cat Wall Street tycoons using Collective Bargaining to hold states hostage with unfair demands, moving the pendulum of politics to their side with big money and bullying tactics rival to the DNR and RNC respectively.

Unions VS The Common Good!

It might surprise the protesters in Madison to know that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt counseled against public-sector unions because “militant tactics have no place in the functions of any organization of government employees.” Even the late AFL-CIO President George Meany expressed reservations.

Where is the Love for Ieshuh Griffin From our Black Sisters in the Government and in the Community?

This is a time where Milwaukee is OPEN FOR BUSINESS!! A new day and that means it is time for our sisters to give up a little piece of their power and share it with the rest of us. Break the glass ceiling!
When do women, especially women of color, start getting away from politics and hate and start opening doors for the rest of us?

Blacks Need Not Apply: Why Coggs, Taylor, Grigsby and others need you to stay uninformed!

Talgo has been accused of requiring Wisconsin applicants to submit pictures along with their resumes and for not hiring qualified blacks and white men over 30 years of age.

While there are many other issues at stake here, the loss of farming jobs, the loss of road side businesses the impact on our air and quality of life in Wisconsin, the first and foremost issue should be to address the blatant racism and why are our black representatives are so willing to look the other way in this case. Politics does not always make good bed fellows!
