While our political system has been crumbling for a while, soon there will be a special election for the US Senate in Alabama that involves a center right Democrat V. a far right wing Republican Judge Roy Moore. 

Prior to this race, Judge Moore was known for actually being kicked off the Alabama State Supreme Court, not once, but twice.   Seriously!  

However, and only in America, the Land of the Free, some women found their voice and told us how the Christian Conservative fired judge had a penchant for young women. 

More commonly referred to as hebephilia. 

When the accusations first came out, by numerous women, with even more corroborating witnesses, people were disgusted and pulled their support from Judge Moore. 

They say time heals all wounds.  In this case they did not heal the wounds but they sure numbed them. 

A heavy dose of novocaine, or maybe a too many beers, and it seems the disgust of Roy Moore and his love of 14 year old girls has all but disappeared. 


So much so that The Donald has fully endorsed Roy Moore, and the RNC has started feeding him money again. 

No word yet on when Roy "Fruit Salad" Moore and the Donald will take the SS Lolita to Jeffrey Epstein's Private Island and partake in the the local pleasures together.   

Once you can get your head around the fact that the party of Abe Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Ike, is working hard to elect someone who has preyed on young teen girls, then sit down because as we know there is always more.   

A former face of the Republican Party and Presidential nominee, Mitt Romney,  the man whose backbone makes jellyfish look like they are rocks, who has never taken a serious stand in his whole life, finally did:

Mitt Romney‏Verified account
MoreRoy Moore in the US Senate would be a stain on the GOP and on the nation. Leigh Corfman and other victims are courageous heroes. No vote, no majority is worth losing our honor, our integrity.

In Wisconsin, our "friends" at RightWisconsin, have been way to busy obsessing over Gordon Hintz to care that Roy Moore preys on teens. 

The Bradley funded hack columnist at the Gannett Newspaper collection of pamphlets, actually dedicated a whole column on why everyone should vote for Roy Moore. 

To make matters worse, there are Republicans all over the nation, who say, "who cares he is a Republican". 

When Mitt Romney is one of the few who has an actual moral compass and backbone in the GOP, it is time to officially retire the phrase - American exceptionalism. 

If we do not put an end to this anti intellectualism and complete blindness to every crime done on "your team" the next phrase we can retire is - American Democracy. 

Wisconsin News Round Up

By Jeff Simpson 

The holiday weeks get a bit too crazy and I end up getting backed up.  Time to catch up on some stories under the radar.  

1.  Christian Schneider, the hack Bradley "columnist" at USA today, has weighed in on the Judge Roy Moore for Senate campaign.   It did not disappoint as he weighed in exactly where I expected him too. 
Vote for the pedophile to save the Republican tax cuts.

 Moore's evident predilections for young girls have put Republicans around the nation in an untenable position. If Moore were to lose the seat to Democratic challenger Doug Jones, the GOP majority would slip to 51, making it tougher to keep promises like tax reform. But if Moore were to win, the Republican Party would be saddled with a likely pedophile within its ranks — typically a sub-optimal message for a party facing crucial midterm elections next year.

2.  As Donald Trump campaigned on this issue: 

If I am elected President I will immediately approve the Keystone XL pipeline. No impact on environment & lots of jobs for U.S.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 18, 2015

Actually all of the GOP members of the Presidential contender clown car supported approving the Keystone XL pipeline.   Including this guy:

Scott Walker

“We need a president who will approve the Keystone pipeline on the very first day in office and then seek to level the playing field for all sources of energy,” he said during his campaign launch speech in July.

Our friends in South Dakota once again get to live the nightmare of Republican policy in action:

AMHERST, S.D. (AP) — TransCanada Corp.'s Keystone pipeline leaked an estimated 210,000 gallons of oil in northeastern South Dakota, the company and state regulators reported Thursday.

Now Scott Walker and WISGOP are going to open up mining in Wisconsin again.   What could possibly go wrong?   

3.  After Aaron Rodgers got hurt, some fans called for them to sign Colin Kaepernick.   However, standard wisdom says, that the majority of Packer fans would not be happy if they did.  Too much respect for the flag here in Wisconsin - unless it inconveniences you:

The Green Bay Packers handed out small American Flags during the Packers-Lions Monday Night Game, as part of the NFL's Salute to Service Military Campaign.
"During the National Anthem, everybody was waving (their flags) and singing," Marine veteran Tegan Griffith told WTMJ.  "It made me feel very good."
However, by halftime, Griffith says she and her fellow veterans noticed many of the flags were discarded.
"We started noticing people leaving (flags) on the ground, next to food wrappers and beer cups," Griffith explained.  "We found a couple on the bathroom floor.  The veterans I was with started to get a little upset."
After the game, the flags were seen everywhere.

4.  Wisconsin is definitely working.  That is if you are part of the Scott Walker inner circle! 

MADISON - Gov. Scott Walker's administration helped give a contract worth at least $35,000 to a firm affiliated with Walker's campaign treasurer, state records show. 

Not a single person in Wisconsin is surprised.  

5.  Ever wonder what Brad Schimel does on his weekends?  Hint:  It sure isn't processing the incredible backlogs of rape kits in WI!    

Madison – Last weekend, according to an agenda obtained by MapLight, Brad Schimel appears to have attended an opulent retreat and fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago that the Republican Attorney’s General Association (RAGA) did its best to hide.
The weekend’s activities included: a dinner with $125,000-per-year donors to the RAGA, golf tournaments, catamaran tours and numerous fundraisers. Most alarmingly, on the agenda, was a panel dubiously titled “Rule of Law Restoration Update: 370 Days since the election of President Trump.”
Secrecy for the event was a top priority, as it was not made public and the agenda notes that “cell phone use and picture taking is prohibited in all areas.”

Again the people of Wisconsin are not surprised.  

6.   In more unsurprising news, we get a glimpse of the incompetence of Wisconsin Republicans that led Wisconsin to be this much of a mess.   

First term Assembly Rep. Shannon Zimmerman (R- River Falls) put out a press release telling everyone how proud he was to vote for Scott Walkers backwards budget.   

“I am proud to have voted for the recently approved Wisconsin state budget, a budget that provides the largest increase in K-12 funding in state history and directs funds to training that will close our skills gap, all while keeping property taxes in check and our financial house in order, including a substantial increase to Wisconsin’s rainy day fund,” said Zimmerman.

The problem however is Mr. Zimmerman did not vote for (or against) the budget as he was shirking his duties as a taxpayer paid full time legislator and was actually in Amsterdam.  

The 45-year-old businessman was stuck at the airport in Amsterdam, where he had gone on a business trip for Sajan Inc., his language translation business. Many flights had been grounded in Holland's capital that day because of poor weather conditions.
On the roll call for final passage of the budget in the Assembly, Zimmerman was recorded as the only state rep to be absent for the vote. The bill passed on a 57-39 vote.

Zimmerman, with his ability to think he votes on bills when he was thousands of miles away, he is going to take his crackerjack job as a first time assembly rep and run for State Senate.   

When called on it he channeled his inner Charlie Brown:

"I'm not trying to be deceptive at all, good grief," he concluded.  

I guess when it comes to taking tough important votes Rep. Zimmerman is 

Only in Wisconsin.     

Lawrence W Smith -

By Jeff Simpson 

Jerry Bader, who is currently writing for media trackkkers, has spent some of his time attacking a college girl for a tweet he did not like.   

A UW-La Crosse student is out as Vice-Chair of the Wisconsin College Democrats after tweets, first reported in a story broken by Media Trackers Friday Morning. Talk show host Jerry Bader also reported on the tweets Friday morning. Talk show host Mark Belling and Campus Reform later reported on the tweets. The La Crosse Tribune reports that Sarah Semrad resigned Tuesday morning. Semrad tweeted Thursday that she “f***ing hates white men.” She also claimed to be tearing down pro-life posters on campus. 

Why Jerry Bader is trolling college girls twitter is a question that should probably be asked by the authorities. 

But wait there is more!  

This tweet upset some of our good, sane friends on the right, who felt the need to reach out and offer their condolences to young Ms. Semrad:

While Mr. Ekern seems like a fine upstanding citizen, the people of Kenosha should be excited that he moved there from Norway.   

The comment I want to focus on is the one by Captain Diplomacy, Lawrence W. Smith.  Mr. Smith calls young Ms. Semrad a "pathetic bitch" because, Jerry Bader showed him yet another way that liberals are attacking all that is good in the world (Ie...white men),  he does not like a tweet she wrote which was in fact an inside joke.  

Mr. Smith will show her, for trying to have her own personal life.   

But wait there is more,,,,if you have ever heard of Lawrence W Smith, you just might live in Winnebago County.  If you live in District 8, this guy is your County Supervisor.   

Yikes, he fits right in to the fam, breaking the flag code and all!   

But Wait!!!  There is more!!!  

Mr. Smith even commented when called out on his hateful behavior:

Lawrence W. Smith Jeff Simpson What hate, I pointed out her ignorance you and the other leftest nobs need to learn the difference between outright disagreement with stupidity and hate speech. If you want to hear real hate speech go to any puplic collage gathering of leftist socialist/democrats and you will get an earful of HATE.

Yikes, this guy is really off the deep end.   Larry shows his disdain for not only women, but also anyone who might not vote Republican.

Mr  Smith is not a big fan of African Americans either as he lets us know in his facebook: 

Also for those in Winnebago County, if you see Mr. Smith's creepy van parked near you, I would highly recommend locking all of the doors and windows!  

I swear truth is stranger than fiction!

I wonder if this is the van he sold to Roy Moore?   

That all being said, if you have a child going through college and are not incredibly disgusted by this time in GOP history, you might want to rethink your priorities!  

In the meantime, if you would like to get in touch with Mr. Smith and contacting him for a follow up:

Is Some Pedophilia OK?

By Jeff Simpson 

Many Republicans are finally finding it safe to speak out against Alabama GOP Senate Candidate Crazy Roy Moore.   

Scott Walker: 

“But you look at things like that that come out at the last minute and you think, well of course that wasn’t true … So I don’t know if (the Moore story) is true, but if it is, obviously he should step aside,” he said.

Ron Johnson:

"If true, these allegations describe intolerable behavior and are disqualifying," Johnson said in a statement.

Paul Ryan:

“These allegations are disqualifying if true,” Ryan said in a statement released by his campaign. “Anyone who would do this to a child has no place in public office, let alone the United States Senate.” 

Not a whole lot of individual thought going on there....but wait let's compare and contrast!

Remember this guy:

Or this guy:

Or this guy:

Or this guy! 

Or even this guy:

Now let us revisit our "heroes"  

Scott Walker:

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker made it unequivocally clear ahead of his speech to the Republican National Convention Wednesday that he is fully endorsing Donald Trump for president.
 "Absolutely," Walker told Fox News' Greta Van Susteren when asked if he is endorsing Trump. 

Ron Johnson:  

 Johnson said voters were looking for dramatic change and both he and Trump are on the right side of the biggest issues, like how to fight terrorism and the importance of nominating conservatives to the Supreme Court.

Paul Ryan:

Ryan’s column in his local newspaper left no doubt where he stood after speaking “at great length” with Trump since he initially declared hesitation about his candidacy.

“Through these conversations, I feel confident he would help us turn the ideas in this agenda into laws to help improve people’s lives. That’s why I’ll be voting for him this fall,” Ryan wrote.

The line is different for each candidate apparently.   That or our favorite Wisconsin politicians hold the Senate in higher esteem than the office of the Presidency.   

To be fair though, the very weak worded criticisms of Roy Moore, came only after he started trailing in the polls.   

it is much easier to make the decision to jump off a sinking ship!  

The GOP slogan for 2018 has to be 

Party before people!
