$9,814,864 Mistake – Vote No
Posted by: | Comments
Let’s do some math here. It doesn’t even need to be exact. Doesn’t the new math teach us to estimate guestimate anyways? So with the math, I’m going use low figures that even the looting class of this city can’t deny.
65 Acres – Not 1 square centimeter less. Won’t meet minimal requirements.
50 Lots – Maybe more but I’ll use 1.3 acres for a size. Actually most of the housing density in Hudson is half of the 1.3 figure. Again, lets be extremely lenient on this one.
$100,000 – Current taxes being paid on the property.
So lets have some fun with the figures.
50 Lots @ $3500 annual property tax (City of Hudson portion). = $175,000 Anyway you look at it, this figure is low.
If the property were commercial such as a mall, the figure could be higher, but lets use the $175,000 figure.
So in 15 years that figure would be $303,043. $175,000 with annualized growth of 4% for a grand total of $3,504,128 in collected taxes over that period. 30 years out would be $9,814,864 in collected taxes.
One last figure. The amount of taxes collected if the Hudson School District buys the property. ZERO
We would be morons if we allowed a tax exempt entity to purchase such prime property.
Soon I’ll explore how much taxpayers save for every year we can put off the looting class and their unneeded plans to expand.
VOTE NO on Dog Track for HSD!
Vote NO on River Falls Referendum
Posted by: | CommentsSo the big spending lefties are at it again in River Falls. Enrollment is flat but they need to pass another referendum to make sure we keep “quality” up! Well you can see by our dismal ACT scores that “quality” sucks in River Falls. And why is it that they get to keep coming back time and time again for referendums? They should have to wait several years before trying again, but here we are less than a year after being told no and putting us through another vote. And they are doing it on an off election year. The whole school board should be recalled!

Steve Dzubay on Recall Election
Posted by: | CommentsToday is the day to send a message to the government union thug Shelly Moore and her minions by casting your vote for Sheila Harsdorf. Sheila had the courage and wisdom to fix a $3.6 Billion shortfall WITHOUT raising taxes on the average taxpayer. Let’s hope a victory by Sheila puts a nail in the coffin of the whole recall B.S.
GO SHEILA!!!!!
Steve Dzubay on government thug Katie Thurmes
Posted by: | CommentsDoes anyone really believe the drivel spewing from the mouth of government thug Katie Thurmes in her recent letter to the editor?
Katie Thurmes, Legal Secretary (page 21)
Why doesn’t Katie tell us that she is a government employee and the real reason that she opposes Sheila Harsdorf is because whe finally has to contribute to her pension and a little bit more for her healthcare? Get over it Katie. It’s time that the grownups control Madison. Vote for Sheila on August 9th!
Republican Logic
Posted by: | CommentsOn Friday the Republican controlled House of Representatives voted and rejected a resolution that would have given Obama the authority to deploy US troops in Libya. This comes after the Speaker of the House cried illegality over the operations in Libya and that the President had acted contrary to the Constitution.
In a vote taken immediately after the authorization vote, the House of Representatives voted to reject another resolution that would defund the Libyan operation.
So your against the military action, but vote to keep funding it. This is the same logic the Boehner led House used when Republicans postured against Obamacare, but still continues to fund it in the budget.
And you really think this clan is going to hold fast their opposition to raising the debt ceiling.
You Go Your Way Lad and I will Go My Way
Posted by: | CommentsSecessionists control the majority and vow to hold a vote on separation from the national government. Such a headline must sound like the dream of racists or the people of some African country few could pronounce or even locate.
But the thirst for liberty crosses all boundaries. People seeking to be free from tyrannical governments that oppress individual rights and free markets only hate the intrusions of the bureaucracy.
The next secessionist movement may surprise you.
**Update** Prosser Takes 7,000+ Vote Lead in Supreme Court Race
Posted by: | CommentsAfter Tuesday night’s Wisconsin Supreme Court election, a computer error in heavily Republican Waukesha County failed to send election results for the entire City of Brookfield to the Associated Press. The error, revealed today, would give incumbent Supreme Court Justice David Prosser a net 7,381 votes against his challenger, attorney Joanne Kloppenburg. On Wednesday, Kloppenburg declared victory after the AP reported she finished the election with a 204-vote lead, out of nearly 1.5 million votes cast.
What’s really funny (so far) about this was Klopper’s statement the other night where she discusses why she isn’t concerned about the potential of the very thing that apparently has happened…. du-oh!!

Also, Ann Althouse has a funny comment..
Vote Agianst Kloppenberg
Posted by: | Comments
For those who personally know Justice Prosser, it is no surprise that he is not guilty of the actions which the ad alleges. Prosser is a highly respected jurist and person. Hopefully, the voting public will see through this vicious smear campaign and re-elect a thoughtful justice who deserves another 10 years on the bench.
He is endorsed by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, over 65 Sheriffs and DA’s, 85 Wisconsin Judges, and 4 Retired Supreme Court Judges.
Kloppenberg is government lawyer from Madison who has made a career of representing the DNR in lawsuits against farmers, homeowners, and small businesses. Her husband is an UWM professor who is a radical anti-capitalist, -corporate, -intellectual property rights, -biotechnology ideology, and is a contributing writer for the Socialist Review. This IS NOT who we want for this important office.
VOTE for Prosser!

Hudson School Board Adopts 4 Corners Offense
Posted by: | Comments
In a cowardly fashion the Hudson School Board has gone into a stall tactic with regards to the contract extension proposal from the teachers. In an attempt to ride the fence and not have to make a tough decision, Barb Van Looney and company have decided to let the clock run out instead of just saying no. The 4 Corners Offense was made famous by Dean Smith of North Carolina and so irritated the other teams in the ACC that they instituted a shot clock which is still in effect. The board is just hoping that the Budget Repair Bill becomes law before they actually have to take a vote. This is a feeble attempt to save face with their cronies in the union and administration. What a bunch of worthless trash….
Sergeant Dale Schultz Mum on Intentions
Posted by: | Comments 
Sergeant Dale Schultz (RINO loser from Richland Center) is holding his cards close to his vest. He’s not letting us know how he will vote on the Budget Repair Bill. We all know Sergeant Dale Schultz as the moderate who is married to a school superintendent. He has NO conviction and NO courage. He is a lifelong government employee, just like his wife. He is one of THEM, not one of us. He reminds me of Sergeant Schultz from Hogans Heroes. Watch how this poker game plays out…..
A Declaration of Dependency – welcome to the dark ages.
Posted by: | CommentsWe are in a situation that proves once again the failure of central banking. These know-it-all, self-righteous, punks who serve on the Federal Reserve Boards around the county and, in particular, Heli-Ben, were not planning on passage of the Health Care bill. Please go back and review the odds of this nightmare, this Declaration of American Dependency, passing.. When the Fed was tinkering, dare I say massively intervening into the economy, the chances of passage were very low. There is simply no way they were engaging in policy premised upon passage.
Let me restate this: Do you think that their overt inflation of the money supply would have been altered had they known 12, 18, 24 months ago that passage of this idiotic bill was a certainty???
Ladies and gents, the Fed was in a pickle regardless the outcome of last night’s vote. But now, now we are all in the jar with them and the cover is tightly sealed. You cannot run, you cannot hide. There is no amount of prayer, worship, or meditation that will keep one of the new 16,500 IRS agents from peering into your health care coverage – just to make sure it is “adequate.”
I cannot help but to advise you to run for your life. The lights on that hill that Ronald Reagan spoke about flickered, buzzed, and went completely out last night… we are now officially in the Dark Ages, part deux.
