  • We won’t drink to that

    Coming to grips with mid-term defeat. A few observations: Can Wisconsin even be considered a purple state anymore? A battleground, swing state? Democrats control all three branches of government — including the state supreme court. The Marquette University poll got it right by predicting a 7-point David Crowley victory; the Democrat won the governorship by…

  • Out, damned spot

    America wasn’t tired of Donald Trump; it is sick of him. We don’t blame Donald Trump for the washout in Tuesday’s mid-term elections as much as we blame his enablers. His yes-men never brought the certifiably narcissistic head case to heel. They indulged the man’s worst instincts. They stymied their gag reflex, fearing his retribution.…

  • Battling for a political party’s soul

    Pilloried for calling out her party’s anti-semitic hate. Haley Stevens is on the side of the angels, Republicans are saying, while Liz Cheney remains condemned to perdition. Democrats reverse the polarity. Could be both were trying to save their political parties on the eve of their destruction. (🎶 Even the Jordan river has bodies floatin’.…

  • Bullhorns blow progressive baloney

    Thanks for reminding why we are Republicans! If Blaska were not already a Republican, the idiots picketing Tom Tiffany’s campaign appearance this Sunday 11-01-26 in Madison would make him one. A gaggle of bullhorn blowers chanted their rhyming slogans at volume 11 outside his event as if such juvenilia made the case for anything other…

  • ‘No response’ insults persuadable voters

    ‘Go and make disciples.’ — Matthew 18:19-20 There are several reasons why Republicans are projected to lose the Wisconsin Senate next Tuesday, besides the reckless elephant in the room, which we’ll get to later. Not answering candidate questionnaires might not even be the most important. But it is one of them. We continue to be…

  • The Brewers have us over the moon!

    All of Wisconsin is sitting in the front row! Wisconsin needed that. The Milwaukee Brewers won their first World Series after coming so close too long ago — 1982. The city and state’s first baseball championship since the 1957 Braves (for you history buffs). Church bells rang in Milwaukee Wednesday night 10-28-26. Shouts of jubilation…

What a parade!

750,000 fans! Maybe the largest gathering in state history!

“This was the happiest human traffic jam in the city’s history.” (Quote)

Manager Pat Murphy, age 67, brought up the rear of the parade sitting on a lawn chair with his young kids. It was a long parade. “I had to pee.”

Robin Yount, just like he did at a rally after the parade in 1982, rode in on a motorcycle. It was Bob Uecker’s Harley-Davidson.
