Bad? Brilliant?

Although Paul Bucher has been the District Attorney in Waukesha County for some time now, it seems that he has been sleeping on the job.  Apparently he does not know who sentences a defendant after they are convicted of a crime.  Confused Bucher must be getting pretty desperate because he apparently thinks that Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk doubles as a judge. 

Although Paul Bucher has been the District Attorney in Waukesha County for some time now, it seems that he has been sleeping on the job.  Apparently he does not know who sentences a defendant after they are convicted of a crime.  Confused Bucher must be getting pretty desperate because he apparently thinks that Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk doubles as a judge. 

In his latest ad he tried to blame Kathleen Falk for sentencing decisions that Dane County judges have made in criminal cases.  It would be nice to ask Bucher when was the last time that former Waukesha County Executive Finley ever spent time sentencing folks.  Is Bucher going to start criticizing Republican Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker every time a defendant receives a light sentence? If not then why not?  What is the difference between one County Exec and another, other than party?

This most recent Bucher ad is his latest attempt to scare white voters into thinking that another candidate favors releasing big scary sounding immigrant criminal types into their peaceful neighborhoods.  It is totally misleading dishonest and sleazy.  But those seem to be qualities that his campaign manager has mastered.

Bucher should be careful about blaming people for things that happened in court rooms in this state.  Milwaukee Rising has pointed out that his record in Waukesha is less than stellar.  It also seems that Bucher is particularly prone to having his legal briefs handed to him in the higher profile cases.  Perhaps someone should run an ad on that.  I can see it now, "Bucher chokes, let's dangerous defendant go free!"

I know that Bucher is feeling rather sensitive right now.  After all, his primary opponent was endorsed by Tommy Thompson while he has been endorsed by who?  The hometown dog catcher?  To add insult to injury his wife is getting in online grudge matches with right wing bloggers that are less than impressed with him.   

I know that these are frustrating times for you Paul, but you really should take some remedial courses in civics and law.  It could really be enlightening for you, and it could spare us from more of your misleading ads.
