  • City of Madison did not lobby Republicans

    for more state revenue! After filing an open records request, citizen watchdog Bonnie Roe finds that not once did the City of Madison lobby a single Republican legislator for financial assistance during the last 18 months even as its $22 million budget hole became apparent. That’s important because Republicans control the purse strings in state…

  • Is Mason Crosby still available?

    We’re extra crabby this Monday! The Badgers, Packers and Brewers lost over the weekend. Yes, we live our lives vicariously. Missing two makable field goals in a 31 – 29 loss to the Vikings?

We’re installing fresh new vacuum tubes in the b&w Philco and wearing raincoats for the…

  • Democrats deploy secret weapon

    … they’re trying a little kindness! The bastids! As oratory, it won’t make the cut in any compendium of speeches alongside Churchill, Lincoln, or Demosthenes. (Who was his Ted Sorenson?) But the groundlings gathered around Blaska Manor’s b&w Philco did enjoy watching ol’ Bubba burble forth on the big stage Wednesday 08-21-24 at the Democrats’…
