Kagen - Oh Boy

From the Badger Herald


Kagen gives hope to health care crisis
by Harry Waisbren

As of yet, you may not have heard much about Rep. Steve Kagen, D-Wis. But you soon will.


Oh boy, we have not heard of Steve Kagen? You got to be kidding!



The freshman congressman has only been in office since 2006, yet through strong acts of leadership he is already confirming that he embodies our state’s progressive tradition.
Oh boy , only since 2006, excuse me isn't it 2008?
Oh boy Harry, can you name me his strong acts of leadership?



Learning about his career, as well as having the opportunity
to meet and interview him, has made me even more confident of Wisconsin’s ability to lead the burgeoning progressive movement and even more proud of Wisconsin values.


Oh boy, what does burgeoning mean? Let us go to
dictionary com



burgeoning-
A)To put forth new buds, leaves, or greenery; sprout.
B)To begin to grow or blossom.
C)To grow or develop rapidly.


Oh boy, isn't the 8th district burgeoning today. I can see the green grass beneath my feet (standing in the snow, mud an ice). I feel so alive today , don't you feel the same. Oh, I feel so alive. I'm burgeoning. Sorry, I got carried away. It won't happen again! Back to the article.


Mr. Kagen’s work on health care reform is the most
indicative sign of his potential to be a historic progressive leader.



Oh boy, a historic progressive leader? Am I smoking something, OHHHHHHH BOOOYYYYYYYYYY! I quit tobbaco! We in northeastern Wisconsin must of missed something since 2006.



It would be a travesty for both Wisconsin and the rest of the
nation if we were to lose a progressive champion with such promising potential to impact the health care debate. It is essential for Mr. Kagen to weather such rank propaganda and be re-elected this fall. With any luck, he will be successful in continuing his work in the vein of Wisconsin’s progressive legacy by playing an integral role in achieving universal health care.


Back to dictionary .com
travesty - Pronunciation noun, plural -ties, verb, -tied, -ty·ing.
–noun
A).a literary or artistic burlesque of a serious work or subject, characterized by grotesque or ludicrous incongruity of style, treatment, or subject matter.
B).a literary or artistic composition so inferior in quality as to be merely a grotesque imitation of its model.
C).any grotesque or debased likeness or imitation: a travesty of justice.

.
Oh Boy, that's right, Mr Kagen is sure a travesty in the 8th district.
Sorry, Mr. Kagen hasn't done anything to be any kind of champion. Can we all just get along and agree Mr. Kagen is Mr. Kagen because of the hard work of his staff and not Mr. Kagen himself. Also propaganda can be told to you even when some one sits across from you in an interview.

Stop, I can't take it! You can read the rest yourself. This young man is working up to land a job in Washington as a speech writer or something more! Harry, cut the colorful metaphors, sorry I mean you should rephrase some on your words . Mr. Kagen is not who you think he is. Move to the 8th district and you will find out the hard way.

Link to this young man's opinion piece.

To Harry, work hard in school and the world is before you, You will do GREAT in what ever you do.

Just one more "Oh Boy", you will see in the comments the following,



"Please refer to Dr. Kagen as Dr. Kagen and not Mr. Kagen. He didn't spend seven years in Evil Medical School to be called Mr. Kagen."

Well, I don't think he spent enough time in Washington to be called congressman!

Help us send Mr. Kagen back to private practice.
