Republicans have given Democrats exactly what they wanted related to K-12 education and local government funding. (AB 506 & AB507)Now the Republicans are willing to give the Democrats the cigarette tax increase.

This is the message from Senate Democrats who are unwilling to budge an inch on their huge tax increase.Today Senate Democrat Breske put out the a press release where he says in part, “It’s time to compromise and work out a budget and stop shortchanging Wisconsin residents.” So does this mean that the Democrats are willing to give up their HUGE tax increases? Are they willing to actually negotiate or are they expecting the Republicans to cave completely?Assembly Republicans realized that the...

The country from 2 weeks ago was Rwanda…The clue refers to the plot of Hotel Rwanda “Don Cheadle stars in the true-life story of Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager who housed over a thousand Tutsis refugees during their struggle against the Hutu militia in Rwanda.”Last week’s country was Costa Rica.This week you should have no trouble identifying the country. I give it a 2 out of 10....

I find it interesting that while our schools are approaching a budget deadline that will create chaos for the school systems of Wisconsin as well as huge tax increases to the people of Wisconsin; the Senate Democrats are running around talking about how the State should mandate that businesses in Wisconsin spend billions of dollars to curb greenhouse gases. (Senator Mark Miller (D-Monona))Maybe if Democrats held their breath this whole global warming thing would go away…Senator Miller is right...

It’s not dead yet…here is a letter from our Democrat elected officials in Racine to Rep. Vos trying to get him to change his mind.Rep. Vos is on the right side of this issue! Call your legislators today and tell them we do not want to pay for another “service” that will not be used by the majority of people in the area.This train will only drain our paychecks in the future when there isn’t the ridership to continue service and the business community...
Yesterday’s Investor’s Business Daily published the following editorialThe ‘Old’ Consensus?Climate Change: Did NASA scientist James Hansen, the global warming alarmist in chief, once believe we were headed for . . . an ice age? An old Washington Post story indicates he did.On July 9, 1971, the Post published a story headlined "U.S. Scientist Sees New Ice Age Coming." It told of a prediction by NASA and Columbia University scientist S.I. Rasool. The culprit: man's use of fossil fuels.The Post reported...

The Bureau of Printing and Engraving has decided that the $5 bill is going to go through a make over!It seems that due to a high number of counterfeiters “bleaching $5 notes and printing fake $100 bills with the bleached paper to take advantage of the fact that some of the security features were in the same locations on both notes” It was time for the 5 to have a face lift.Here is an image of the new $5 bill and if you click on it, it will take...

They can’t do it.Democrats could, right now, vote to de-fund the Iraq War and have the...

September 11Almost everyone remembers where they were on a bright, comfortable Tuesday morning six years ago today, when 19 men dispatched by al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden and armed with boxcutters brought the reality of jihadist terror to our shores. Five terrorists, one pilot and four "muscle hijackers" (used to subdue passengers) hijacked three planes; American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were flown into the World Trade...

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Tom Lantos, a California Democrat said on Monday to General Petraeus "The administration has sent you here today to convince the members of these two committees and the Congress that victory is at hand...

The SIOE was told that their protest...

Last week we tried something new just for Justin and as it turns out Justin got it right!The country was Slovakia!The math problem could have been solved one of two ways…the most accurate way is to know what the country was and determine how wide the country was…in this case Slovakia is approximately 263 miles across.3.5 inches = 263 miles3.5/3.5 = 263/3.51 inch = 75.1 milesThe other way that would be less accurate would be to measure the width...

First there was the 1999 Algore quote “I took the initiative in creating the Internet”Then in 2004 John Kerry said “I actually did vote for the $87 billion, before I voted against it.”Now in 2006 we have Bill Richardson saying “Iowa, for good reason, for constitutional reasons, for reasons related to the Lord, should be the first caucus and primary.” DesMoinesRegister.com Article: Richardson: God Wants Iowa FirstDoes Richardson really think that God cares if Iowa is first…please!?...
