WISGOP Thugs Shut Down Clinic

By Jeff Simpson

Planned Parenthood announced that they will be closing their abortion clinic because they can not afford to stay open and update the security needed from the pro-life Republican thugs running free.   

I have yet to see one Republican leader in this state denounce the violence against women in our state.

Trump : the Ghost of America's Future

By Jeff Simpson


There was a protester at a recent Donald Trump Rally, and Trump did not find it amusing.

What happened to the protester?

The protester removed his shirt to show a shirt that said "Black Lives Matter" and after being instructed by The Donald to attack, his minions did: kicking, shoving and hitting him.   One even yelled "All Lives Matter", followed by "Keep All refugees out".  

This is a taste of America to come if we hand control back to the Republicans in 2016.  There will be no place for "those people" and if you are not 100% on board with the far right wing agenda, you will be considered the enemy.  

We have seen it over and over.

And before anyone tries to blame it on Trump, do not forget this is the Republican primary full of hard core Republican voters.  If Trump is not in the race, these people are doing the exact same thing at someone else's rally.  

I mean we have known this strategu for years.

Aren't we better than that?

The Unhinged Right!

By Jeff Simpson

The republicans are losing their minds! 

Nationally:

It's a bit hard to make out what the distinguished gentleman from Staten Island is saying to Scotto, but here are the key bits, courtesy of NY1:

Grimm: "Let me be clear to you, you ever do that to me again I'll throw you off this f-----g balcony."
Scotto: "Why? I just wanted to ask you..."
[[cross talk]]
Grimm: "If you ever do that to me again..."
Scotto: "Why? Why? It’s a valid question." [[cross talk]]
Grimm: "No, no, you're not man enough, you're not man enough. I'll break you in half. Like a boy."

Later, Grimm released a statement in which he failed to apologize, generally blamed the whole thing on the pesky unprofessional reporter, and sort of hinted towards more physical threats to come:

"I was extremely annoyed because I was doing NY1 a favor by rushing to do their interview in lieu of several other requests...I verbally took the reporter to task and told him off, because I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect especially when I go out of my way to do that reporter a favor. I doubt that I am the first Member of Congress to tell off a reporter, and I am certain I won't be the last."

and locally Rep. Sinicki shared this letter with us(from an anonymous coward) with us:

They are unhinged all over this country!

It leaves me trying to figure out what their 2014 campaign slogan will be:

*  Do what we say or else! 

*  It wasn't me! 

*  When a Republican does it ....it's not against the law!  

*  LOOK ---- Over there! 

*  Benghazi! 

*  1814 all over again!   

* We didn't gerrymander because you love us! 

* The GOP path to desparity! 


Let's help these guys out, what is your suggestion for the republicans 2014 campaign slogan?   They need all the help they can get! 

Scott Walker Gets His Wish

By Jeff Simpson

In case you need reminding, Scott Walker took the fake Koch Brothers phone call no questions asked.  He figured it was just his boss checking in on how things were going!

MURPHY: What we were thinking about the crowds, was planting some trouble makers?

WALKER: Well, the only problem, because we thought about that, my only gut reaction to that would be, right now, the lawmakers I’ve talked to have just completely had it with them. The public is not really fond of this. The teachers union did some polling and focus groups, I think, and found out that the public turned on them the minute they closed school down for a couple days. The guys we have left are largely from out of state, and I keep dismissing it in my press comment saying, ‘eh, they’re mostly from out of state.’”
[…]
I’m saying hey, ‘we can handle this, people can protest, this is Madison, you know, full of the 60s liberals.’ Let them protest. It’s not going to affect us. And as long as we go back to our homes, and the majority of people are telling us we’re doing the right thing, let them protest all they want.

As Capper points out, Scott Walker finally got his wish:

I wonder if Scott Walker opened up a $350 bottle of Wine to drink with his friends at WMC and celebrate the beating of a Wisconsin citizen?  i can not think of too many other things that would have made Walker happier.  

Knot Courageous(at all)!

Q.  Ever wonder why the group from Knot My Wisconsin (gnatsies) work at staying anonymous?

A.  Because if this is how you act in public, you would also!

Besides it is not like he needs to ask anyone what its like to be a douche!

This is the Wisconsin that Scott Walker has brought you, these are the people that Scott Walker has empowered!
