This is for all the marbles,” says GOP Charlie Sykes

“This is for all the marbles,” says Charlie Sykes, a prominent conservative talk-radio host in Milwaukee. “Scott Walker could survive losing state senate. But it would be devastating if he were to lose in supreme court. If Prosser loses, almost everything that Walker enacted could be overturned.” The high court, he worries, has a long history of activism, especially when liberals hold majority.

Will Urban Newspaper blame GOP defeat on Criminal Class Negroes

fwd: re: Milwaukee Urinal will blame Stone's defeat on Milwaukee's 'impotent' Negroes

Well Leon, If Rep. Jeff Stone loses County Executive race, the Milwaukee Urinal has set the stage to blame Stone's defeat on Milwaukee's 'impotent' Negroes. Why would Bice now come out with an article slamming Lamonte Harris when Harris' history has been no secret and the Journal has know this and waited to use it for years? LaMonte is to be congratulated for going out and getting a job and Stone is to be congratulated for hiring the unemployable, a felon, instead the framing of the Journal article is inexcusable for profiling LaMonte Harris and the Stone campaign as something undesirable. This election cycle is all about ANTI WALKER CORPORATE UNION BUSTING AGENDA. Congratulation to both Harris and Stone for being socially conscious in this day and age when the only jobs available for ex-con, who yes made a mistake in their lives, but are look to turn their life around in the legitimate economy. The Journal is one of the reasons the city is in the condition that it is in economically. Shame on them for wanting to continue to unnecessarily profile a large portion of individuals who, quite frankly, need a break in turning their lives around.

County Board Chair has been working w/ Republicans for quite some time. All you have to do is give him a dime and the Chair will do as told. Why slam Harris now? When sentiment changes against the Coggs' the Urinal will tell how they campaigned for Scott Walker against Lena Taylor to keep the Coggs name on the welfare building. Lena Taylor is on the take from Americans for Prosperity. Jason Fields gave Lena Taylor the hook up. Why NOW? Marvin Pratt I guess is tired of being a closet Republican and came out the closet and outright endorsed Walker for governor by coffee-ing Walker through the Black Churches. The Urinal knows all of this, all you have to do is read the campaign finance reports. Milwaukee's 'impotent' Negroes need to be wondering when the Urinal will drop the black book on them. Who's next? JHC

A Declaration of Civil Disobedience Against A Fascist Governor

A Declaration of Civil Disobedience
From the People of the State of Wisconsin

When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for the citizens of a state to occupy its Capitol building, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind require that they should declare the causes which impel them to civil disobedience.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, and that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life [the continuation of which may necessitate medical care], liberty, and the opportunity to collectively bargain. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That, whenever any form of legislation becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that even legislation introduced a matter of days before final votes are scheduled, should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience has shown, that mankind are disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to disrupt their lives to come and rally at their Capitol.

But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations evinces a design to reduce them to an underclass of powerless citizens, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such legislation, and to preserve previous guards for their future security. The history of the present Governor of Wisconsin is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of a priority for wealthy supporters of the Governor and his political party. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has ignored the budget deficit when passing tax breaks favorable to his political donors, but invoked the budget deficit when seeking to injure his political foes.

He has squandered earlier opportunities to release details of his budget repair plans, instead hiding them in attempt to introduce and pass a bill before public input and scrutiny can be obtained.

He has included policy items of widespread and indefinite consequence in this emergency budget repair bill; including the severe limitation of collective bargaining rights of public employees, and the transfer of Medicaid decision-making power from the legislative to the executive branch, thereby circumventing public input on changes affecting the health of millions of children, elderly, and disabled residents of his state.

He has proposed, in separate legislation, to impose new barriers to voting, especially among the young, the old, and the poor.

He has reminded his constituents that elections have consequences, but he has forgotten that one of these consequences is that he is governor of the whole state of Wisconsin, including those who did not vote for him.

He has refused every offer of public employee unions and Democratic leaders to negotiate or compromise on the offending legislation. In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.

For the support of this declaration, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes [such as they are], and our sacred honor.
