Since I missed the last week due to moving prep, I missed out on the week-long fluid-swapping between Jim “Craps” Doyle (WEAC/Potawatomi-For Sale) and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (the official southeast Wisconsin mouthpiece of the Craps For Governor campaign) idiotorial board and didn’t comment too much (or here at all) about their increasing tilt toward the left. Time to make up for all that with the start of my endorsement series with the local.
I’m recommending a NO vote on the Oak Creek/Franklin School District $28.5 million referrendum to build a new East Middle School. This is the third time in a decade that the school district is looking to jam the taxpayers of Oak Creek and eastern Franklin, and they’re using this to set up jams 4 (the replacement of Meadowview Elementary) and 5 (the building of a second high school), jams that were allegedly addressed by the previous 2 referrenda. Bear in mind that they already bought the property for all three of these pet projects, overpaying in the process. Bear in mind that they’re spending 7.5% more this year than last (“thanks” again for that “freeze”, Craps).
