No war or veterans day posts

Someone asked my why (as a vet) I do not post those touching heartfelt “hug a vet”, “be thankful for”, “ungrateful politician”, blah, blah and blah posts.

To tell you the truth I had never thought of it. I sure as hell did not fight for a politician. I did not fight for a policy or law. I sure as hell (hope this does not offend anyone) fight for what any one of you believe.

I could give a rip what Kerry says, or Clinton did, what the dope adled brains of the baby boomers feel. Let them protest, let them give aid and comfort, let them find the one in a million nitwitted ex soldier or marine that claims to speak for all of us. You can even let them show the American public nothing but bad news, day in and day out, forever.

None of it ever meant crap to me. I fought for America. I fought for the little guy who can’t fight for himself. I was part of an all volunteer military whose overall level of training and effectiveness has never been matched in all of human history.

Do you really believe that there is more than a few active duty troops who even bother watching CNN? I know what I saw in the eyes of the citizens of Kuwait. In my war, a bully (Sadam) picked on a little kid (Kuwait) and we broke his frickin legs and said “last warning”. The little a-hole decided to pay other bullies (Palistinian) to kill babies. He trained terrorists in tactics for assaulting aircraft. He gave medical aid to international terrorists.

As a private U.S. citizen and vet I believe we should have put a bullet in his head when he tried to assassinate Bush Sr. WMD’s? Who frickin cares. I gaurantee you if you had to send your child to school on a bus with a chance that some faggot palistinian “terrorist” might try to blow up you would not care about their feelings.

What do I think about the war on terror? Are we attacking the right people? I don’t care if the Iraqi government never heard of terror. They deserved to die for millions of other reasons.

I probably could write or post someone elses sappy soldier post. Tug at your heartstrings for a while and try to awaken some sliver of patriotism but quite frankly I am too damn tired to care.

I stood on the wall while these people cut our budgets, kicked us out of training grounds and left us open to attack by every pissant in the world. I would still stand on that wall today. Not “for” those people who are so willing to give aid and comfort to our enemies, but in spite of them.

JS Online: School taxes fall – or rise – or something – umm don’t look up my sleeve…

The Journal Sentinal* leads with this…

School taxes fall — or rise. Its based on data from the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance.

But what about this little gem from the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance?

School Spending Increases 4.6%, Largest Since 2001-02
WISTAX’s SchoolFacts05 Highlights Changes in School Spending, Revenues and Staffing

I don’t know about you but I am wishing for a newspaper that covers the news in southeastern Wisconsin for Christmas.

Something to watch!!

Giving airline data to US illegal: EU court adviser

Assuming the U.S. Congress doesn’t bend to euroweenie pressure, this would (in effect) make United States Airlines the ONLY airlines to service Europe from the U.S.A..

Cool

Dennis York: CRG Announces Recall Against Mayor McCheese

This is the funniest post I have read in months!!

Klein Won

Durski lost (again) and Nowak lost.

Quick question for Durski, are you going to recall Klein and run again? How does it feel to lose the same election twice? So PBG are you going to go after Klein?

Klein are you truly prepared to run as a the most closely scrutinized Mayor in the history of the State? Every friend, every contract every little thing you do (on and off duty). I hope you remember that Mayors give up their constitutional right to innocent until proven guilty.

PBG, are you going after the aldermen now?

Pewaukee, anyone going to give Durski all the money she lost on them pretty yard signs?

Recall vote tomorrow

UPDATE: PBG leaders have endorsed Klein. All known PBG members have either endorsed Klein or resigned or both. PBG LIED. They said they would not endorse. What does this say about their (former) members (Durski) or “their” candidate Klein?

November 15th is the day. It is the day when City of Pewaukee citizens decide on a Mayor. Remember to vote because this time it counts. Especially if you voted last time. Why? Because a group (PBG) employed a Milwaukee group (CRG) to collect recall signatures from a majority of people who did not vote last time to attempt to overturn the election.

The person who lost the last election, Chris Durski, was a leader of the group and now she’s running. That’s right. She wanted a “do over” and we have to pay.

CRG and the Journal (through the Freeman) have given Durski and Klein a ton of free press and have painted Mayor Nowak in a very unflattering light, yet the press has yet to ask any either of these candidates any hard questions. By the way the Mayors web site is www.mayornowak.com since the freeman will not give that out.

I have spoken to a lot of the service personnal of the city, mainly fire fighters, and I can tell you they have faith in the Mayor to help us maintain the absolutely premier level of service we city residents recieve. We have volunteers from communitees coming in from all around (including Milwaukee) to recieve training with the City of Pewaukee Fire Department. Unfortunately they can not openly support the Mayor because they know that CRG will attack and slander them just like the did the cops.

I know Mayor Nowak is not perfect, but I also know that PBG blatantly lied. A few points to ponder…

Do any of you know anyone who actually was “terrified” to sign the petitions? PBG members called in CRG claims they have someone on tape saying they are terrified, but of course those people don’t want the tape aired. Very convenient.

PBG claims to be “Pewaukeeans” for Better Government but they will not state, on the record, if their members are all “Pewaukeeans”. Very convenient.

Klein says he will cut taxes by “examining” and “Studying”.

Durski says “..” well actually all she says is she is not Nowak, and that is absolutely the truth. Nowak honors the election results, Durski prefers to keep making people vote (and pay for elections) until she wins.

Luckily for us there is an assembly bill out that (if passed) will require local recall organisers to actually state what action the elected official performed that merits the recall. Unlike this goofy “fiduciary responsibility” crap that some Milwaukeean spoon fed to Barb Whitcomb at the PBG to help her get her buddy Durski elected while finishing her personal feud over the lake weed control.

In my opinion, good luck to Nowak and Klein (who is only taking advantage of a weak Durski). Durski if you lose, go home and stay there this time.

Is it just vets who understand the difference?

Madison.com post by Uncle Jimbo – Madison’s favorite hawk

I hope someday that the little power hungry nips like CRG and PBG realise what the hell they are doing to our electoral process. It is also nice to see that others can understand opposing a recall does not mean supporting a candidate!

And yes he is now linked as Military Matters on the right!

Quick note(s) for the emailers

Number 1, do NOT tell me I “can’t” do something. I know this is probably a petty thing but I absolutely go beserk when someone tells me I “Can’t” do something. Think about it. If you say I “can’t” do something you are saying I physically can not do it. If you used it in the expression “you can’t fly by flapping your wings” you would be right. But try “you shouldn’t” instead of “you can’t” when talking about how I comment on Durski and Klein because by GOD I “CAN”.

Number 2, no I am not an employee of the city of Pewaukee and for the last friggin time if you want to know where I work just ask and say “please”.

Number 3, this is for B. No it does not stop if Nowak loses dumbass. I have NEVER advocated for Nowak. I will frickin haunt Dueski to the Grave if I have to. I will NOT stand by and be belittled. PERIOD. Don’t like it? BRing it to my face you little crap. By the way, you should not jump to the post comment directly, it was SO easy to track your ass. The email is in your (or your parents) road runner email account.

Pewaukee Recall – Chris Durski How does she know?

From the JS Online story…

Durski, who was a founder of the recall group but resigned when she decided to run for mayor, said neither she nor Klein support merging the two communities.

“I have been accused of that,” Durski said of the merger allegation. “People who were in favor of that have supported my campaign. . . . I didn’t exclude people just because of what their prior political leanings were. They thought that I could be a good mayor. I’ll let them work for me.”

End quote.

OK, how does Durski know Klein does not support merging the two communities? Are they coordinating their campaigns or is she privy to data the general populace does not have??

Also, when she was with PBG, she not only did not mind having people from outside the community advocate and actively participate in overturning an election but now she is using those same forces, plus others who want to wreck our economy, to do her bidding.

Can’t the Journal even bother doing any frickin research here?

Pewaukee Recall – Scott Klein believes…..

A mayor must give up his constitutional rights. No, I am not kidding. I wrote the other day that it was a joke that a politician wants to write an ethics code for police and firefighters but not even I could possibly believe he would actually expect elected city officials to abdicate their basic constitutional protections.

Here is a quote form the JS Online story of the debate…..

Klein said the city needs its own “strong code of ethics in place,” and that “being a mayor means you have to give up rights . . . say to challenge a speeding ticket.”

End Quote.

I am actually stunned that this issue alone is not a story in the paper or on TV. Absolutely stunned that anyone would actually advocate this crap.
