Where's the anger? Where's the fight?
By Richard Cramer Jun 8th 2008 at 11:39 pm EDT
I just caught the "best of blogs from Wisconsin" in todays Journal Sentinel by jeff Wagner, WTMJ titled "Sore losers and more".
It seems that the right wing ranters are getting twice the ink in letters to the editor, Best of Blogs and guest or community columnists and pounding home their misleading message of "ethics" in an unusually eggregious breach of ethics by now Justice Ziegler (i.e the mere APPEARANCE of a conflict of interest (actual in fact or not) is one of the most serious violations of judicial ethics a judge can make). In publications like the journal, however, no one seems to stress the gravity of the Judicial ethic and no one seems to explain to the public by rejoinder why Wagner's answer is a misleading and insufficient excuse to the challeged justice's activity. In addition, the racist, rotten campaign against Justice Butler was the worst example of candidate character assassination I've ever seen. Why is there no outrage and demand for justice from Wagner's outrageous and arrogant "explanation" of Butler's defeat?
I've seen the AP report today on the republican national committee considering the same tactics against Obama in Wisconsin since it worked so well against Butler. I just opened Senator Web's new book and its opening quote from Pastor John Peter Gabriel Muhlenberg: sermon at Woodstock, Virginia 1775; "There is a time to pray and a time to fight. This is the time to fight." Unless the silent patriotic majority refuses to permit persistent untruth publications to stand without vigorous and scathing responses pointing out the factual errors and the moral bankruptcy of these recurring positions by these pustulant prevaricators, we have no chance of "taking back America".
Who and where is our equivalent of the WMC and Club for Growth?

McCain to follow Gableman's low road?
John McCain's campaign is loooking at the recent campaign of Michael Gableman for Supreme Court as a possible route to winning Wisconsin in November.

What's wrong with that? Gretchen Schuldt nails it:

Gableman's disgusting campaign focused on racial fear-mongering. How low will McCain go?
