We’re Republicans; don’t p*ss us off, lady!
A woman from Lone Rock WI writes the editor of Madison’s morning fish wrap with these questions:
“Why don’t our Republican legislators want diversity in the University of Wisconsin System? Why won’t more of them speak out for women, children, the elderly, and people of color?”
Her questions are more loaded than old Foster Brooks on Dean Martin’s TV show. Just the same, they deserve answers from a real, live Republican. Until we find one, Blaska the RINO will have to do.
First, about children. We Republicans hate the little buggers. Always breaking things, talking nonsense, refusing to work the looms at the Blaska cotton mills.
People of color? Why should Blaska speak up for them? Try getting Al Sharpton to shut up for ten seconds, he won’t do it! We tried! If we did speak for people of color, it would sound more like Tim Scott, Clarence Thomas, and Nikki Haley but they seem capable of speaking their own speech.
Worse, Miss Lone(ly) Rock wants Republicans to speak up for women. (Try to get a word in edgewise!) What woman you got in mind? Maggie Thatcher or A.O.C. or Ms. Bud Lite?
How about a little diversity of THOUGHT!
News to us that Republican legislators don’t want diversity in the University of Wisconsin system. We thought George Corley Wallace and Bull Connor were Democrats. You might be confused, out there in Lone Rock WI, by the liberal news media (excuse the redundancy.)
What Republicans don’t want is political brainwashing. Diversity, equity, and inclusion is nothing more than totalitarian cancel culture when it expels a 42-ton boulder accused of racism! from the UW campus! A freaking rock! We want the good name of Academy Award winner and civil rights activist Fredric March restored to a place of honor. We want the university to quit discriminating against qualified students on the basis of race, to abolish the racial hiring and promotion quotas. To quit teaching that America is irredeemably racist and that all white (and now Asian) people are inherently racist. Like Assembly Speaker Vos (a known Republican) we want the UW to quit teaching hate!
We want a university where all voices are heard! Not the identity politics stereotyping exhibited in your fashionably Woke letter!
Blaska’s Bottom Line: As to why Republicans don’t speak out for the elderly, we do! Get Uncle Joe Biden off the national stage before he falls and hurts himself. Now get off my lawn!

Please God send some diversity to Barbara in Lone Rock.
I guess it’s only natural that someone from Lone Rock would be stirred to fury at the thought of that racist rock that used to lurk in an obscure corner of Bascom Hill. Chances are, that much maligned geologic feature was probably transphobic too.
In all the discussions of the decision to remove it, no one has cited the most obvious reason: the delight a tiny cadre of the perpetually aggrieved take in making UW-Madison administrators jump at their every finger-snap.
the gop does speak for children. 14? go to work you lazy little puks. bars, slaughterhouses, saw mills; they all can use you. want a gun; hell yeah. If you go to the UW they will rot your mind. ps; will someone finally lay a wreath in front of that fu@#ing rock, say a prayer and move on. Treat it like a school shooting. Give it your thoughts and prayers and go have a beer.
Thank you for proving my point.
what point?
Confessing to breathtaking idiocy?
Priceless!

Small wonder despicable Lefties don’t want children working.
Work teaches responsibility, deferred gratification, self respect, self discipline, and other principles which lead to personal well-being, success, and wealth-building.
Without those values, they’re more susceptible to
Lazy @$$ Lefty grooming/recruiting, looking like they fell face first into a tackle box, coloring their mohawk purple, being convinced they’re a victim, and being talked into mutilating their genitals while choosing between one (or more!) of the 56 genders they AREN’T.

Nice rant you drunken gherkin yanker. You want a 14 year old working in a bar and then bitch about the parents not caring for him. Get real crotch. Would your old man let you do it? If you say yes; then you’re lying. Work teaches responsibility blah blah blah. It also let’s employers take advantage of them. Tell that 16 yr old that died about how he was just being put in a position of wealth-building. Save your BS for the gop convention. Pay a livable wage so adults want to work for you and let kids be kids; not slave labor to be exploited. PS…stick that fu#$king rock up your a$$.
The comfort with which the illiterate, angry 76-year-old rank gibberish-spouting Lazy @$$ Blogge Idiot TROLT displays with absolutely crushing, imbecilic cluelessness is troubling…TROUBLING!
Heh! Must just kill you that some young people are far more ambitious than you ever were/are/will EVER be.
The Gotch has been working since before he was 10…’bout the same age you became permanently dependent…

It just so happened that last week I drove up north and found myself in a good old-fashioned Wisconsin supper club eating a delicious fish fry (it was Friday, don’cha know?). One of the busboys, who couldn’t have been more than twelve (I suspect he was the son of the owner), was working the large, crowded room, and in the hour I was there, the kid did not once slow the pace of his work: clearing tables, filling water glasses, wheeling carts full of dirty dishes to the kitchen, etc. As soon as a table was vacated, he was there getting it set up for the next customers. When I left, I handed the hostess a $20 bill and told her to make sure he got it along with my compliments on a job well done. How refreshing it was to see a lad his age already imbued with a work ethic that would put most adults to shame. Compare this to Madison, where kids his age are stealing–and crashing–cars, threatening–and attacking–teachers, disrespecting cops and any other authority figure that crosses their path, and spending their spare time whining about how racism is depriving them of their just desserts.
Bussed many a table, washed many a dish, and scrubbed many a pot/broiler pan/steamer tray (with the capable assistance of Herr Hobart) myself as a young welp; started out @$1.45 per hour, if memory serves
Where abouts up ‘der, Gary; any place Soglin might’ve visited with his…um…ill-fated Supper Club Campaign in 2018?
The Gotch types this from the South Shore of Legend Lake, a coupla clicks east of Keshena in Menominee County….and fish is on the menu!

richard – and I am only saying this because I care – there are a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market today that are just as tasty as the real thing.
Nemo, The Gotch is going to be up in your nape of the neck ’til next Tuesday; if you feel so inclined get my email address from Blaska and we’ll hook up.

I’ve sent word to the Squire, ordered up some good (Canadian smoke free) weather, and warned the bar’s staff.
Relocate the boulder and rename the town Not So Lone Rock.
