No Runny Eggs

(H/T - a semi-retired Cheddarsphere denzien)

I guess we can add Bloomer High School principal Brent Ashland, Bloomer School District Superintendent Doug Martin, and the majority of the Bloomer School Board, headed by president Joe Zeman to those whose patriotism we no longer need to question because they have none. Why? Allow me to recap the Chippewa Herald story I linked to:

- Bloomer High School senior Daniel Lingen finished his studies early so he could complete Marine Corps boot camp before the graduation ceremony on May 31.
- He requested permission from principal Brent Ashland to wear his soon-to-be-earned Marine dress blue uniform instead of the traditional cap-and-gown at said ceremony. Ashland, with no written policy to guide him, refused to allow this.
- His father, Charles Lingen, took his son’s case to the school board, after getting conflicting excuses for the refusal.
- On Monday, after what school board president Joe Zeman called weeks of discussion both among school board members and between school board members and the public, and after a snap decision to put this on the agenda the prior Friday and thus barely meet the requirements under the Open Meetings statutes, the school board adopted a cap-and-gown only policy written by superintendent Doug Martin. Of note, an attempt to carve out an exception for military dress uniforms died for a lack of a second to the motion offered by Ralph Bruxvoort.

The Chippewa Herald was thoughful enough to include a statement from the Bloomer School District. As you read it, note that there was no official uniform for graduation until after Daniel Lingen made his request and after the Bloomer School District spoke to their military representative:

The School District of Bloomer released the following statement Tuesday morning on the board’s decision:

It is the position of the School District of Bloomer that high school graduation, although it may hold different personal meaning for each individual, is a ceremony to recognize and honor students for their academic achievement in earning a Bloomer High School diploma.

Based on this, the Board of Education has determined that the appropriate attire for the Bloomer High School graduation ceremony will be the traditional cap and gown as selected by the Class of 2008.

In weighing this decision, the School Board and administration received input from individuals and groups on both sides of the issue, within and outside the community, including a representative of the U.S. Military. The military representative we talked with informed us that he understood our position because the military is all about uniformity; and if the uniform of a high school graduate is the cap and gown, all graduates should wear the cap and gown.

Unfortunately, there are some that will claim that by requiring graduates to wear the cap and gown, rather than their respective military uniform, that the district is somehow unpatriotic or unsupportive of those that serve our country. Drawing this conclusion is not an accurate assessment of the genuine appreciation felt by the individuals that comprise the School Board and administrative team.

The School Board and administration of the School District of Bloomer hold in highest regard the men and women who join and serve in our country’s military. We both respect and admire the sacrifices these individuals make to defend our national and individual freedom.

We are extremely grateful to our graduating students who choose to take this honorable path and, in recognition of that, there is time set aside during the Bloomer High School graduation program to acknowledge their commitment.

By adopting this official position only after it became an issue, and by at the least misleading that military representative what the official position of the school district was, I would say that deeming the school district is unpatriotic and unsupportive of the military is an accurate assessment.

If memory serves, Mary Katharine Ham has been hammering the operators of Huffington Post and Daily Kos for “less-than-civil” comments left on their sites on her weekly appearances on “The O’Reilly Factor”. I wonder where this little gem from Ejike Ofoemezie of Canton, Georgia on a blog hosted on Barack Obama’s official campaign site would fall on that scale:

It is unbecoming of an old man who is a part of the problem America has today to tell us not to hope. What a deaf man? If McCain has given up on hope and life, the rest of America has not. He should pay a deserved visit to the undertaker. So, someone should please remind McCain there is a place called a zoo where the likes of him should take abode while the rest of America moves on.

Just in case the Obama campaign decides to scrub their servers, I did take the liberty of grabbing a screencap, complete with both an apparently-unused link to report objectionable content and a graphic stating that the blog is on a server paid for by Obama For America (click for a full-sized graphic)…

Revisions/extensions (4:44 pm 4/11/2008) - Sorry about the lateness of the update; I was away from the keyboard all afternoon. I don’t know if it was Fred or Winged Hussar of Grizzly Groundswell (who had it first), or Charlie Sykes (who picked it up in the 11 o’clock hour), but we got results. Into the memory hole it went, but not before Winged Hussar and I both got screencaps. I’ll put my money on Charlie; it disappeared about an hour after he posted on it. Fred also notes a few other nuggets of material (enough for not one but two pages of archives) from Ejike are still there.

Also on top of it - Psycmeister’s Ice Palace.

I honestly don’t know where to begin with this New York Times article quoting liberal after Marxist extolling the virtues of unafforable food, so I’ll probably ramble and shamble.

And if American staples like soda, fast-food hamburgers and frozen dinners don’t seem like such a bargain anymore, the American eating public might turn its attention to ingredients like local fruits and vegetables, and milk and meat from animals that eat grass.

More-likely, given the rush to corn-a-hole and bo(v)i(ne)diesel, we’ll turn our attention to imported foods as there won’t be any land available for those boutique foods.

Urging others to eat better (and thus more expensive) food is not elitist, (Alice Walters) said. It is simply a matter of quality versus quantity and encouraging healthier, more satisfying choices. “Make a sacrifice on the cellphone or the third pair of Nike shoes,” she said.

Now we get to the nitty-gritty of the Marxist nature of the Food Snobs. It truly is a case of food or lifestyle for them.

“Someone on the margin who says ‘I’m struggling’ would say rising food costs are in no way a positive,” said Ephraim Leibtag of the United States Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service. Even if the food budget isn’t an issue, there are plenty of people who view low-cost food as a national triumph.

“If you think that mass production and vast distribution predicated on cheap energy is a good system, then the dollar hamburger is a good thing,” Mr. Leibtag said.

I don’t think I’m struggling (neither am I living high on the hog), but rising food costs are in no way a positive because I believe in mass production and vast distribution predicated on cheap energy. With his distain for capitalism, no wonder Mr. Leibtag works for the gubmint.

Although prices for organic groceries are rising at least as fast as their conventional counterparts,….

I find it funny that this was buried on page 2 of the web version, well after the third-paragraph claim that organics weren’t going up in price.

Uncle Jimbo, who is on the National Heroes Tour, has found some crapweasels in the greater Twin Cities area. The oh-so-tolerant left couldn’t abide a few veterans giving the youth at Forest Lake High School some positive words about the media, so they got linguini-spined principal Steve Massey to cancel the event because it was “too political”.

Too political, Massey? As Uncle Jimbo pointed out, the only ones making this political are the Gorons who cannot abide any positive message about the military being told to the skulls full of mush. Peter notes that The Corner found out it it was the DUmmies behind this. I’m shocked, SHOCKED.

One of the commenters on Michelle Malkin’s thread notes there are schools giving students extra credit if they go to anti-war rallies. It would be very interesting to find out if Forest Lake High School is one of those; something tells me it is.

Revisions/extensions (4:30 pm 3/25/2008) - A couple of extensions. First, a tip of the cap to Cory down in the comments for Dan Riehl’s little expose on Mr. Massey’s past. While it doesn’t definitely answer my suspicions on whether the school offered extra credit for protesting the war, it does reinforce my suspicions that he is a liberal crapweasel.

Related to that, one Eric Langless, a school board member there, has promised in Dan’s comments that he will look into this.

Finally, a bit of good old-fashioned student protest against the administration, conservative edition, comes to us from Powerline via Michelle Malkin - dozens of students walked out of school to see the rescheduled speech at the American Legion. Student Elijah Miller summed up the actions of the school, “My brother’s in the armed forces…it’s a slap in the face for people with family members in the armed forces.”

Let this be an object lesson to moonbats everywhere - do not send an email wishing death by anorexia to somebody who can easily find out that days earlier, you had a letter decrying “cyberbullying” published in the local paint-catcher like one Joe Roppe of Stevens Point, WI.

The details are over at Blackfive. Short version:

- Sgt. Mike McNulty, who is on activation orders to go to Camp Pendelton and then Iraq on January 2, went to visit a friend in Chicago on December 1.
- Chicago lawyer Jay R. Grodner decided to key McNulty’s car, causing $2,400 worth of damage ($2,100 more than what the standard is for felony criminal damage to property in Illinois), and proceeded to verbally assault McNulty.
- In the first court appearance, Grodner tried to get off with paying McNulty’s $100 deductible, with McNulty’s insurance taking the rest of the hit. Despite “encouragement” from the Illinois States Attorneys, McNulty said, “Nuts,” and tried to push for the felony charge
- The State, saying that it wouldn’t be worth it to try to pursue felony charges because Grodner was a lawyer, countered with an offer to put Grodner on probation. Grodner rejected that, knowing the clock is ticking.

The next hearing in this case is today. Matt will be updating us with the latest developments.

Revisions/extensions (9:17 pm 12/31/2007) - Matt reports that the State will now be prosecuting Grodner to the full extent of the law. May the bastich be found guilty.

(H/T - Bryan/HotAir Headlines, though since I’m only half-listening to Charlie today, I may have missed his take)

A year after the city of Milwaukee finally acquiesced and restarted calling the joint city/county Christmas Tree a Christmas Tree, Marlin Schneider (D-Wisconsin Rapids) introduced a joint resolution to call the tree in the Capitol routunda the “Wisconsin State Christmas Tree”. That tree had been known as just that between 1916 until 1985, when the early hatchlings of political correctness renamed it a “holiday tree” (my memory’s hazy, as I was in high school then, but if it serves, ‘Rats ran all the branches of state government that year). In the interim, the Capitol has become a December playground as every religion, including the Madison-based Freedom From Religion Foundation, has displays there. The joint resolution is expected to fly through the Republican-controlled Assembly, but since the Democrats control the Senate, I doubt it will go anywhere. The takehome lines from the public hearing on the resolution yesterday direct from the linked AP article:

Snarlin’ Marlin Schneider (if you want an explanation for the “Snarlin’” tag, I’ll give it in the comments as it’s not exactly germaine in the post) - “I am here today to voice the ire and frustration of the majority of people of the state of Wisconsin who want their Christmas tree back in the state Capitol, not a politically correct holiday tree.”

Annie Laurie Gaylor from FFRF - “The state of Wisconsin cannot have a Christmas anything.”

Rep. Joel Kleefisch (R-Oconomowoc) - “(Holiday) means holy day, representative of Christmas, the holiest day in the Christian calendar.” (note to Joel, Christmas is #2 on the holy list behind Easter)

Schneider - “If it looks like a Christmas tree, and it smells like a Christmas tree and it’s decorated like a Christmas tree and it has presents under it like a Christmas tree, it’s a Christmas tree!” (emphasis in the original)

I admit that I’m coming in on the tail end of this, as I only have Kevin Fischer on the Franklin end of the feed reader, but there is one hell of a firestorm over the disappearance of Fred Keller’s FranklinNOW blog. It sure looks like NOW online editor Mark Maley is beginning to target the conservative end of the NOW bloggers.

(Major H/T - Michelle Malkin)

Lane Dutson, president of Maine Coast Designs, a firm working on Sen. Susan Collins’ re-election, tried to put up several ads that seek to rally Collins’ supporters against MoveOn.org up through Google AdWords. He got summarily rejected, and the money quotes are in an IM exchange he had with a Google employee.

Collins isn’t exactly a Pubbie (I’d put her somewhere between RINO and RepubicRAT), but the fact that $oro$ and company have even her targeted tells me everything I need to know about the current state of DhimmiRAT politics; they won’t leave any opposition unstifled.

Just as a reminder, Google owns Blogger, so my guess is you guys are next. As an aside, since they also own FeedBurner, I’m now looking at alternate ways to monitor my feed traffic.

Revisions/extensions (5:30 pm 10/15/2007) - Guess $oro$ isn’t all-powerful after all (once again, Michelle has the details).

With Charlie taking the day off to celebrate the release of 50 Rules Kids Won’t Learn in School, and a bunch of crap floating around (both figuratively and literally), I just couldn’t let another week go by without some noting of it. I have a voice for blogging, so you won’t have the multimedia presentation that the Blogfather usually does every Friday right after the 11:35 traffic, but let’s roll with it anyway. It’s time for the weekly Deep Tunnel Awards, handed out every week Charlie’s on the air Friday plus this week to the person, politician or institution who, like MMSD’s somewhat-almost-not-quite-deep-enough tunnel, was the most full of it.

Third runner-up this week - The Chicago Tribune and various pantywaist envirowhackos, who are about to derail an expansion of BP’s refinery in northern Indiana over a miniscule increase in the amount of crap they would be allowed to dump into Lake Michigan, up to 5,000 pounds per day from 3,500 pounds per day. BP has now promised to not increase their dumpings, even if it means they won’t expand production. Because that BP facility is one of only two that produces our very special blend of Algore/Whitman Memorial RFG, I hope the envirowhackos choke on $5/gallon gas (after I move out of here, that is) while braying the $2/gallon increase for a lake that is 0.000014% cleaner is worth it. Oh, and remember that number; I’ll get back to it.

Second runner-up this week - Michael Vick, who is set to plead guilty to a charge stemming from dogfights he and others participated in. May you try to escape and get an up-close-and-personal visit from a police German Shepherd.

First runner-up this week, in second place - The idiot who rammed Milwaukee County Deputy Kevin Johnson’s squad car as Johnson was cleaning up an accident scene on US-45. Kevin’s younger brother, Tim, was nearly killed doing the same thing back in January. Thankfully, Kevin was still in his squad car and escaped injury. Message to motorists - if you see flashing lights, don’t aim for them.

But the winner this week - Chicago’s Metropolitan Water Reclamation District, which, instead of sending its 243,000 pounds of crap daily down to the Mississippi like it usually does, is sending something north of that into Lake Michigan. Meanwhile, MMSD claims it can dump an average of 11,000 pounds of crap a day. And yet the envirowhackos continue to ignore that and bitch about an additional 1,500 pounds in exchange for something that’s absolutely needed, and about someone who takes a whiz over the side of a fishing boat.

What a load of crappy-crap-crap.

Revisions/extensions (4:33 pm 7/23/2007) - My apologies, for the moment at least, to John Chisholm. However, 4+ months is a long time to still be investigating, and given that the city issued and, in most cases, dismissed the disorderly-conduct tickets, it’s not encouraging.

Do you remember the 21 protesters thugs that smashed up the UWM-area Army recruitment center? Rebecca does, and she has some bad news. DA E. Michael McCan…er, John Chisholm Milwaukee City Attorney Grant Langley is set to drop all the charges against the thugs. Rebecca also dug up the history of the 12 “adults” who were given municipal tickets for disorderly conduct - 3 who pled no contest were found guilty, 6 who either pled not gulity or didn’t plea at all had their cases dismissed without prejudice, and 3 who pled not guilty are waiting final disposition.

Paging Mr. Biskupic.

Well, everybody else is writing about it, so I might as well too. There are two significant directions that this could go, and I honestly can’t decide which one to take it. Let’s first start off with the “just business” canard that WTMJ almost tossed out there. Frankly, I didn’t find the show appealing enough to listen to. She just couldn’t make the transfer between the printed word and the spoken one. Judging by the ratings, most people agreed with me.

Counterbalancing that, the time slot she was in is truly the dead time of radio. Almost the entire potential audience is doing something else, whether that is watching TV, out eating, out at the bar, or out at the game. Indeed, that last factor, specifically the fact that WTMJ airs the Brewers, Bucks and Badgers, made it harder for Jessica to cultivate an audience because half her shows are pre-empted. She also came quite cheap, as she was a part-timer. I can’t imagine Dennis Miller’s syndication price being that cheap, especially since, unlike with Jessica’s show, WTMJ has to pay Dennis’ syndication company a significant amount for the shows that aren’t aired.

That leaves the flap that Tim Cuprisin and his fellow-traveler lefties used to bludgeon WTMJ into something like submission, the bit where a chicken substituted for Eugene Kane, the resident racist at the Journal Sentinel. My, oh my, how fast the firing line has moved to mere criticism of black racists. Worse, WTMJ management made it clear that’s the new line. If that truly is the line, I don’t expect Dennis’ show to last very long, because he is an equal-opportunity ripper.

They could’ve saved themselves a LOT of problems by keeping Mark Reardon around.

The AP is reporting that White House spokesman Tony Snow, who had colon cancer two years ago, is going back under the knife Monday to remove a non-cancerous growth in the lower abdomen. The choice quote is (as usual) at the end - “The biggest problem you have sometimes with cancer is flat-out fear. When you see an Elizabeth Edwards saying, `I’m going to embrace life and I’m going to move forward,’ that is a wonderful thing.” Couldn’t say it better, or likely as well in the same circumstances, myself.

May the surgeons remove that growth quickly and cleanly, and may you be back to work ASAP, Tony.

One more thing; damn the putzes at HuffPo (no, I won’t link there from here, but I’ll point you to Macsmind and Hot Air, who post the “love” from those moonbats).

The latest episode of HamNation takes on the lieberal-created problems of carbon offsets, lighting, and “domesticated” animals like Knut the lethally-adorable polar bear. If you’re not watching this weekly, you should be.

Now, go watch and be edified.

Note; unlike PETA’s actions, no animals were harmed in the production of the video.

Bryan has compiled a list, complete with links, of a heap of “fringe actors” acting out over at Hot Air.

I haven’t hopped in on the story of a bunch of thugs recreating Kristallnacht on the Army recruiting center near the UWM campus, but there’s a couple of updates that need to have a wider audience.

First, even though the thugs have, so far, only picked up municipal tickets, Jessica McBride is reporting that Milwaukee County DA John Chisholm isn’t ruling out additional charges, even if the Milwaukee Police Department doesn’t recommend any. The catch is, MPD had not refered anything to his office as of this morning (Oh Nan, what’s the delay?), so the DA’s office is in a holding pattern.

Similarily, the feds are in a holding pattern, even though the damage threshhold for a federal felony charge is only $1,000 compared to the state’s $2,500 threshhold. There hasn’t been any word out of the US Attorney’s office, but typically the US Attorney will let the state handle things. I strongly suspect that, if Chisholm starts channeling E. Michael McCan’t, Steve Biskupic will invite the punks for a stay at Club Fed.

Second, I do have to give props to my state Senator, Jeff Plale (D-South Milwaukee). Charlie Sykes has an e-mail from him condemning the punks.

Item #1 - Hitlery (or if you prefer, Hiliary) Rotten Von Der Schlikmeister has tossed Old Crusty Black Pantsuit into the Presidential ring. The game is now afoot. Unlike Allahpundit, who called the timing an “amateur mistake”, I declare it a masterpiece. One of the most-watched weekends of the (mostly-)liberal Sunday morning talk shows, made so because those liberals without fax machines need their pre-State of the Union Address marching orders, now gets dominated by Hiliary, and the hosts “Meet the Press”, “Face the Nation”, “This Week”, and “Late Edition” won’t have to temper their genuflection before her with any criticisms from Limbaugh and the weekday Fox News crew.

Item #2 (with a H/T to Kate) - It sure looks like we’re about to get a massive tax increase from yet another President Bush. Take a gander at this line from this week’s Presidential radio address (the last one before his State of the Union Address)

Americans are fortunate to have the best health care system in the world. The government has an important role to play in our system. We have an obligation to provide care for the most vulnerable members of our society — the elderly, the disabled, and poor children and their parents. We are meeting this responsibility through Medicare, Medicaid, and the State Children’s Health Insurance Program. We must strengthen these vital programs so that they are around when future generations need them.

It even comes with Jefe’s own “read my lips” moment:

We must address these rising costs, so that more Americans can afford basic health insurance. And we need to do it without creating a new Federal entitlement program or raising taxes.

Item #3 - Investor’s Business Daily is reporting that a tax hike in the form of a cap on tax breaks for employer-provided health care is just one of the hard turns to the left that is expected to be announced on Tuesday night. He will also announce that, unlike Jim Ott (a major hat-tip to Josh Schroeder for getting that exclusive), he doesn’t want to lose his AMS certification, that making his 2001 and 2003 temporary tax cuts permanent are off the table, and that corn-a-hole will get a fresh massive federal influx.

On August 14, Fox News correspondent Steve Centanni and free-lance cameraman Olaf Wiig were kidnapped in the Gaza Strip in broad daylight near the Palestinian Authority security headquarters. 8 days later, there has been no contact with their kidnappers and no demands have been made for their release. May they be released unharmed quickly.

Michelle started the day wondering why there has been so little news on their kidnappining; indeed, the article she linked to comes out of New Zealand, home of Wiig. She noted, and I agree, that the lack of coverge is odd, considering that most kidnappings of foreigners in Gaza have only lasted a couple days with the kidnappers making demands shortly after the kidnapping and the victims released unharmed.

At first, I thought that since Fox News hasn’t been providing updates, the rest of the media was taking the cue from them. Then, after finally catching an on-air update during the Fox Report (with guest host Jane Skinner - schwing ;-) ) that confirmed that there has been no contact withthe kidnappers, I rechecked Malkin’s post on this and find that I gave the rest of the presstitutes too much credit. A lefty TV critic by the name of Bob Laurence let slip the real reason why ABCC^BSNBCCNNPMSNBCNYTWPetal have been ignoring this; they don’t like Fox because Fox doesn’t follow the same DNC talking-points “reporting” they do.

I somehow doubt that this exchange as reported by Power Line has an auto-reply response as part of it:

Reader Henry David copied us on his over-the-top letter of thanks to the New York Times for blowing the terrorist finance tracking system:

Dear Mr. Keller:

I want to thank you personally for breaking the story on the government illegally using the SWIFT system to track money.

This administration is always breaking the law. They all belong behind bars. Just remember, it’s your duty to make sure they’re kicked out of office, in the most humiliating way possible. Republicans are killers of poor people all around the world. Crimes against humanity should not go unpunished.

Keep up the good work.

My take on this:

The lieberals in this country see but one source of evil; conservatives. They are perfectly willing to align themselves with anyone and everyone, and use any every tactic necessary possible in their pursuit of the elimination of us, even if it is self-destructive. From their efforts to keep blacks as a permanent underclass to their use of Hispanics whose ultimate goal is to reappropriate large sections of the US for themselves including the largest concentration of liberals west of the Appalachians, from aligning themselves with Islamokazis who want every person who does not agree with them 110% dead to advocating the breaking of any and every law if it means embarrassing the Bush administration, it is clear that lieberals have taken the approach of, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

Be very careful of what you wish for, lieberals. Your “allies” won’t hesitate to stick knives in your backs (literally and figuratively).

(H/T - OpinionJournal’s Best of the Web)

The Times (of London) columnist Mick Jones reports the saga of one Edward Atkinson…

It is bad enough that you can be refused medical treatment on the NHS for eating, drinking or smoking too much. Now it seems that you can be denied an operation for protesting too much in support of your religious or political beliefs.

Edward Atkinson, a 75-year-old anti-abortion activist, was jailed recently for 28 days for sending photographs of aborted foetuses to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn, Norfolk. That draconian sentence was not deemed punishment enough: the hospital has banned Mr Atkinson from receiving the hip replacement operation he was expecting.

Just as a reminder, Queen Elizabeth Hospital is owned and operated by the British government.

Chris of On The BorderLine and BadgerBlogAlliance (side note: That gives us 2 Chrises. We have to find better way than posting the Russian for Field Marshall for the Spotted Horse one) brings us the sordid tale of the happenings in Hudson. It all started with a series of actions a bunch of pro-Big School thugs, both private citizens and police officers acting under the color of law, took against their opponents. A citizen finally wrote the local paper, the Hudson Star Observer, only to have it heavily edited. First, the fill-in editor claimed that the “letter contained many items that had been brought up before”, then told the person, “I’m just not going to take anymore criticism from you.” Today, the disturbing truth came out; it was Hudson Police Chief Dick Trende that edited the letter with full permission of the HSO.

Un-<expletive deleted>-believable. That’s right; you have the police department heavily involved in intimidation of those exercising their political rights, then the police chief actively censors the speech of someone brave enough to speak up. This isn’t Havana, or Beijing, or even Thug Holloway’s Milwaukee County and Captain Ahab’s Dane County, that we’re talking about. This is small-town Americana. Just un-<expletive deleted>-believable.

WorldNetDaily reports that Paul Trost, a 20-year-old self-described liberal student at Massasoit Community College in Brockton, Mass. who has protested against the Iraq front of the War on Terror, faces possible displinary action for shouting, “Remember Chappaquiddick!” during an on-campus speech by Sen. Ted “Swimmer” Kennedy.

Trost, who said he was upsety by an introduction of Kennedy given by Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.) in which Lynch noted how Kennedy overcame hardship on his way to success, shouted his famous words as he walked out of the room just as Kennedy began speaking. He was followed outside by a campus police officer and several state troopers, with the campus officer taking down his information and informing him that he would be hearing from school officials about disciplinary action.

Remember, kids; the moment you start to oppose the lieberal establishment, they will do everything in their power to silence you. It doesn’t matter that, before your unforgivable transgression, you were 110% in the lieberal camp.

Some “oh-so-tolerant” lieberal decided that, for the “crime” of being conservative, Jenna deserved having her car vandalized and conservative stickers pulled off her car, house, and backpack. I won’t hold my breath for the Madison police to pursue these thugs or Brian Blanchard to charge the thugs if they’re caught, much less with hate-crime felonies, like 4 UW students charged with ripping a poster from a dorm wall and making nusiances of themselves.
