The Minocqua-Hazelhurst-Lake Tomahawk School board decided Monday following a lengthy closed session that staff members who didn't report for work Friday, Feb. 18, were in violation of the contract and would be docked one day of pay, as well as receive a letter of reprimand.
Last Friday 24 of the 47 staff members at MHLT called in sick to work, resulting in school closure for the day.
It is assumed they did so in protest of the efforts of the state Legislature to change collective bargaining rights for public employees.
Please call and thank them. Way to go people of that area. I think those 24 should be fired!

Recall Senator Jim Holperin sets Petition Drive
Kick-off Saturday
February 26, 2011
Growing Number of Citizens Organize to Gather Recall Signatures
EAGLE RIVER, WI -- Senator Jim Holperin is hiding out of state to avoid a vote on Governor Scott Walker’s budget repair bill. Northwood citizens will stage a district wide petition drive this Saturday across the north east tier of the great state of Wisconsin. “The district is huge,” says Simac, “but we have had an overwhelming show of support since these individuals decided that retreat was their best option.”
With the needed paperwork filed and taxpayers lining up in every county, city and town, average citizens are ready to send a clear message to their AWOL elected official. “Senator Holperin has failed to carry out his official duties in the State Senate,” said Kim Simac, leader of the recall committee. “Jim Holperin needs to know that while he is hiding out in Illinois, voters in his district are taking the steps to remove him from office.”
This Saturday hundreds of disappointed taxpayers will take to the pavement and remind those who seek elected office that such positions require integrity, responsibility and a devotion to all they represent.
“Local Tea Party groups, GOP members and a cross- over of all political spectrums, are on board with this movement. “Our problems are serious and Senator Holperin has left his constituents with no representation in Madison during these conflicting times,” says Simac.
To recall Senator Jim Holperin, the committee anticipates needing to collect over 20,000 signatures.
The given time to collect needed signatures is sixty days. Simac says, “Give me ten; I am going to try to do it in ten.” “While these Senators are thinking this is a mini vacation and funds are being raised to support their insubordination, people like me are wasting our precious time away from our own businesses working on recalls.” Simac says, “Who really are the true leaders in this state?”

UPDATED: As Two And A Half Men star Charlie Sheen's erratic behavior escalated today in a series of verbal assaults on the show's creator-executive producer Chuck Lorre, the sitcom's network and studio did the only thing they could in the situation: pull the plug. But they only did it for this season. (Two and a Half Men was scheduled to resume production on Monday for 4 more episodes). So the door is left open for a possible ninth season. "Based on the totality of Charlie Sheen’s statements, conduct and condition, CBS and Warner Bros TV have decided to discontinue production ofTwo and a Half Men for the remainder of the season," the two companies said in a statement.

Senate Bill 6 -- Voter ID bill information
Letter from Mary Lazich
Senate Democrats continued to abandon their legislative responsibilities by not attending the Senate floor sessions. However, the Senate was able to act on Senate Bill Six, the Voter ID bill, today, Thursday February 24, 2011. The Senate advanced the bill to a third reading, taking it beyond the amendment stage. Because there is a fiscal impact to the bill, specifically the cost associated with providing free IDs, the bill required a quorum for a final vote. Like the budget repair bill, all we need is one Democrat to come to the Capitol and we can approve the Voter ID bill.
The longer the Democrats continue to neglect their responsibilities as legislators, the more costly the Voter ID bill will become.
One of the main reasons the Indiana Voter ID law was found constitutional is that the state provided a program to educate citizens about the new requirement. Wisconsin Senate Bill Six saves the expense of a voter education program by providing a grace period during the April 2011 election. Voters will be asked to show identification at the time they vote. If voters do not provide an ID, they will still be allowed to vote. Poll workers will inform voters not providing an ID at the April election about the future requirement to provide photo ID.
If Democrats do not show up to vote on the bill, that means we will not be able to use the April election as the grace period to facilitate the education process. In that case, we would need to fund a multi-million dollar education program.
During 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld Indiana’s voter ID law. The court found the state’s interest in preventing voter fraud, modernizing elections and promoting public confidence in the integrity of the electoral process outweighed the limited burden upon voters’ rights. We closely studied the Indiana law and worked very hard to make sure these three constitutionally-tested interests are in Senate Bill Six. When this bill is finally signed into law, it will provide Wisconsin voters more confidence in the integrity of their elections and will not disenfranchise legitimate voters.

Local Liberals Against Sound Government
Some area democrats who are against Scott Walkers Budget Bill that strips collective bargaining.. These have to be in the back pocket of the unions. Sorry, they are in the pocket of unions.
Dear Governor Walker, Senators and Representatives:
We respectfully urge you to reconsider and delete the proposal in the Budget Repair Bill to severely restrict the collective bargaining process between local governmental bodies and their employees. This provision of your recommended bill is inconsistent with the Wisconsin tradition of local control over local community issues. In addition, it does not help achieve the prime goal we all share of providing cost-effective, quality public services for Wisconsin's people.

What's This, 4 Republicans Vote No? R I N O 's
The budget bill passes the Wisconsin Assembly but I have to ask, what's up with these four?
Budget-repair bill approved in early-morning vote - JSOnline:
"All Democrats voted against the proposal along with four Republicans - Dean Kaufert of Neenah, Lee Nerison of Westby, Richard Spanbauer of Oshkosh, and Travis Tranel of Cuba City."
I wonder what their voters think about them voting NO!

VILAS COUNTY REPUBLICANS CONDEMN OUR SENATOR, JIM HOLPERIN
Membership Unanimously Votes to Condemn Sen. Holperin and Support His Recall
EAGLE RIVER, WI – Members of the Vilas County Republicans met Monday evening, February 21, 2011,
and voted unanimously to condemn our Senator, Jim Holperin, for leaving the Senate floor, vacating the
Wisconsin State Capitol, and for fleeing to Illinois.
Our members have demanded that he return to work in Madison to serve all his constituents of the 12th
Senate District or to resign, but he has failed to do either.
Vilas County Republicans then held a second vote and agreed unanimously to support the Recall of
Senator Jim Holperin. Our county organization agrees to support the independent efforts of Concerned
Citizens of the 12th Senate District who developed an Exploratory Committee to Recall Holperin and are
following up with activities to gather signatures and complete the recall process. More information on
those efforts can be found on‐line at www.vilas.wisgop.info and at www.recalljim.com.
When St Germain small business owner, Mark Rogacki, was asked why he supported the motion to
recall Senator J. Holperin he said, "I've been around long enough to know the difference between right
and wrong. When Senator Holperin ran to Illinois and stayed there to avoid voting, he was wrong.
To my way of thinking he has already voluntarily forfeited his right to serve as our State Senator. This
recall simply confirms that decision."
Newly elected Vilas County Republican Chairman, James Maillette, addressed the unanimous vote
condemning Senator Holperin’s failure to represent his district and the subsequent unanimous vote in
favor of supporting the recall effort by saying "We weren't expecting either of these actions when I took
over this position a little more than two weeks ago, or for that matter, even when Governor Walker
proposed this legislation. Senator Holperin has brought this upon himself by failing to properly
represent his constituents. I can understand that he holds a different opinion than we conservatives do
when it comes to dealing with the financial situation here in Wisconsin, but I don’t believe that fleeing
the state is the right thing to do just because things aren’t going your way. For a long time, the
democrats have had control of the state of Wisconsin, and republican representatives like Dan Meyer
have stood in there and done their best to represent their districts, all while democrats forced bill after
bill through with little or no discussion. I mean what choice does Jim Holperin’s flight to Illinois leave us
as voters in his district? Even if he comes back, how do we know that he won't leave again? I believe
that we (the Vilas County Republican Party) are taking the steps necessary to ensure that in the future,
we will have representation in Madison."

How many did not vote at all? According to official statistics, just less than 50 percent — or 2.171 million of Wisconsin's 4.372 million eligible voters — cast a ballot for the Nov. 2 election.
How many voted for Gov. Scott Walker, new state legislators such as Sen. Frank Lasee and Rep. Andre Jacque, and incumbent Rep. Bob Ziegelbauer, not to mention Wisconsin's new U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson and congressmen Reid Ribble and Sean Duffy?
Where were these teachers and lefty libs back in November before the election?

Killing Wolf Subject To Prosecution, Even When.....

Posted Feb 23, 2011 @ 05:35 PM
Tips sought in EUP wolf killing - Sault Ste. Marie, MI - Sault Ste. Marie Evening News:
"Newberry, Mich. —
Michigan State Police from the Newberry Post confirmed the dead wolf was found south of town off County Road 405. State troopers were not part of the official investigation at this point in time as it remains in the hands of conservation officers and fish and wildlife agents, but were aware of some of the details regarding the slain animal.
State and federal officials, in a press release, indicate the wolf died from an apparent gunshot wound.
Wolves are a federally protected species in Michigan and cannot be legally killed except in the defense of human life. Anyone who shoots a wolf while protecting livestock or a family pet is subject to prosecution.
Nice, if your $2000 cow or $1000 puppy is being torn apart by a wolf, you just stand there and accept it. But if it comes after you, then shoot it. So do you have to have the wolf take a bite of your arm or leg and only then can you shoot it?
The maximum penalty for poaching a wolf is 90 days in jail with a fine of up to $1,000, according to the press release. A conviction for this offense also carries a potential $1,500 reimbursement fee to the State of Michigan for killing an endangered species and could result in the suspension of hunting privileges for a period of three years.
So if a wolf turns on you, is that poaching if you shoot it?

By Liz Goodwin"
Providence, Rhode Island Mayor Angel Taveras is sending layoff warnings to all 1,926 of the city's teachers.
They won't all be dismissed, but state law requires the city to notify teachers by March 1 whether the district could lay them off before the start of the next school year. School officials say warning every teacher gives them the freedom to let go many of them later without having to single any of them out now.
Providence's school district is facing a $40 million budget shortfall next year.
"Are there going to be less teachers? Yes," Taveras told The Providence Journal. "Will there be less schools open next year? Yes. Do I know which teachers and which schools? No."
As you can imagine, the local teachers' union is not taking the news well.
Go ahead Wisconsin teachers, make our day!

Keep the fire hot and help us take back our state of Wisconsin. Obviously Mr Holperin is on the wrong side of this issue. Scott Walker and republican won the election last November and and we want them to clean up the mess Jim Doyle, Jim Holperin and the democrats gave us when they were in control.
RECALL JIM!!!!!!
From the Lakeland Times.
Holperin had more important things to do. He and his fellow Democrat state senators instead fled the capital in Madison so they could delay a vote on Republican Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget repair bill.
By fleeing Madison and traveling to neighboring Illinois the Democrats prevented the majority Republicans from having a quorum to allow a vote. There are 19 Republican senators. Just one more senator in attendance would have allowed the vote to occur.
Recall efforts are under way to recall Senator Jim Holperin in the Wisconsin 12th District.
If you are a resident in the 12th district, here is a map and at least age 18 you may sign the petition. for the recall. You have three options.
1) you can go to Recall Jim Holperin.com and give them your information on getting a petition.
2) you may go to the following link at the Northwoods Patriots and download the information. Please read carefully.
3) depending if you are in the Mountain, Crivits , Marinette or north of those areas please e mail me at my berry laker address to the right of this blog. I would need contact information if you would like me to send you a petition.

New Proposal For Wis. Gov. Scott Walker, Impound Union Dues
Why shouldn't the state of Wisconsin and local governments, since they deduct union dues on employee payroll just keep the union dues to balance the budget for a couple years?
The unions are all for the right to keep state government collecting union dues, so why not keep the money for a while? It would help to bring the budget in line for a while.
Didn't Doyle raid the transportation fund? Raid the doctors fund?
Scott walker, Impound all union dues!

Can Walker Impound Strike Funds
I have to ask, can Scott Walker impound union funds to hold off any general strike? Can Scott Walker, since Wisconsin is collecting union dues, just hold those deductions for say, a couple years or so? Let the courts decide it in 2015! Cut off their income for a couple years! Pay interest on their money? The state is broke.

General Strike, Looks Like Work For Wisconsin Unemployed
Wisconsin Unions Call For General Strike:
"The South Central Federation of Labor, an umbrella organization representing more than 45,000 workers in Wisconsin, voted last night to endorse a general strike if the state legislature passes Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair bill, the Wisconsin State Journal reports.
About 100 delegates of the 97-union federation voted unanimously in favor of the strike, and called for the group to start educating its members and affiliates on the 'organization and function of a general strike.' There were no details available about how the strike would work or how many workers would take part."
Bring it on, A lot of people need jobs too.
Time for the unemployed in Wisconsin to get ready to work. There are a lot of people who will step in for half the wages the unions get.

Hurley: We're Broke, Get Over It, Do Your Job
From the Daily Globe.
State turmoil threatens Hurley school aid:
"2/22/2011 12:58:00 AM
HURLEY -- With Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair bill delayed, Hurley School District administrator Chris Patritto said Monday that he's not sure how state aid to schools will be affected for the 2011-12 school year.
Patritto said the school district had been preparing for a budget deficit of $170,000, with a worst-case scenario of $270,000.
Now, he said, 'Will it be $300,000, or $400,000? I don't know.'
In his written report to the school board, Patritto said, 'I'm not very upbeat about what will come.'
The school district expected to receive school aid projections from the governor today, but the budget process has been delayed in Madison."
Hey Chris, the state of Wisconsin is broke. You will have to deal with it..Now do your job with the help Walker will give you.

Has Anyone Checked The Strategic Petroleum Reserve Lately
Gasoline prices climbing
With crude oil and gasoline price going through the roof because of the unrest in the Middle East and considering the way the Obama administration is handling our energy problems, I have a question.
Is there still oil in the U S Strategic Petroleum Reserve? I don't know, did he drain it and not tell anyone.
If we have an oil crises and need to pull from the SPR, will it be there?
Just asking? Maybe someone in Washington might want to look into it before it's too late.

Unions Threaten, Then Out Of State Hansen Speaks
Big Union rally in Green Bay.
Union reps bash Walker for refusing to negotiate | greenbaypressgazette.com | Green Bay Press Gazette:
"'If this is allowed to go through the way it is, it is going to pit labor against management rather than working together to solve problems,' said T.J. Parins, an attorney that represents multiple public unions.
Sen. Dave Hansen of Green Bay, one of the 14 Democrats who left the state to block passage of the bill, gave an emotional speech to the audience of roughly 450 over the phone. Hansen called on his Republican counterparts to help find a compromise."
So it has come to the point that the unions will threaten state, city and local government if they don't get their way.
And Hansen, sitting in another state calls on republicans to compromise? Where was Hansen and compromise the last two years in Madison with Jim Doyle. It never happened.
Dave Hansen, I hear a recall coming your way.

Jimmie Hoffa For High Speed Rail

Hoffa: Walker Has Gone Too Far: "
Teamsters President Says Walker's Pro-Corporate Agenda Won't Create Jobs
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa said Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker has gone too far with his vindictive attack on working families.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100127/IBTLOGO)
Hoffa was responding to Walker's speech this evening to the people of Wisconsin. Walker's budget proposal would eliminate important protections for working families in the state by severely weakening collective bargaining rights.
'Destroying workers' collective bargaining rights won't balance the budget and it won't create a single job,' Hoffa said. 'Walker isn't fooling anyone. He's trying to give more power to the corporate CEOs who put him in office so they can cut workers' wages and send jobs overseas.
'If Scott Walker wanted to create jobs, he wouldn't have pulled the plug on high-speed rail in Wisconsin. If Scott Walker wanted to create jobs, he wouldn't have signed a contract that sends Wisconsin Department of Health System jobs to India. If Scott Walker wanted to create jobs, he would have asked his friends at Koch Industries to stop laying off workers in Green Bay."
I am shocked, just shocked, Mr Hoffa is for high speed rail and for the union in Wisconsin. I never would of seen that coming.

Wis. Teacher Pension, Math Part Time-Teacher Set to Earn More in Retirement than She Did While Employed
From Belling.com
» Union Fails Pension Math: Part Time-Teacher Set to Earn More in Retirement than She Did While Employed - Big Government:
by Ben Everard
Shortly after the Green Bay Packers turned the nation’s attention to the Midwestern state, Wisconsin once again has garnered the nation’s attention. At stake this time is not a trophy, but a prized retirement package promised to public employees. Throngs of protesters have taken to Madison, Wisconsin to either show their support or disdain for Governor Scott Walker’s plan to require public employees to pay 5.8 percent (the national average is roughly 12 percent) of their salary as a contribution to their pension."
My mother worked as a public employee when she was a teacher’s aide in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. She was employed by the state for five years, from 1981-1986. However, she worked only part-time, so was never credited for a full year of employment by the state for each year she worked. Instead, she received only partial credit each year. Fortunately for her, Wisconsin and two other states (Minnesota and South Dakota) allow for full vesting for public teachers after only three years of employment. Using a deduction for her part-time status, Wisconsin determined her creditable service amounted to 3.07 years. Had she worked three weeks less during her last year, she would be entitled to nothing. As luck would have it, she fully vested, and is entitled to receive a monthly check from the state of Wisconsin for the rest of her life.
Like millions of fellow baby boomers, she turns 55 this year. And in Wisconsin, one can elect to draw benefits at age 55. If she retires this year and elects to take her pension, she would receive a check, once a month, for $230. She receives this check for the rest of her life, and, if she predeceases my father, he is entitled to cash the check for the rest of his life.

Wisconsin State Sen. Bob Jauch, D-Poplar, on Monday said he and 13 other Senate Democrats didn't violate any laws when they left Madison to delay action on Gov. Scott Walker's budget repair legislation.
Walker's proposal would strip nearly all collective bargaining rights from most state employees.
The senators have been hiding out in Illinois since Thursday."
The voters of Jauch's district must be very proud of him.

Wisconsin Dems Go To Plan C
First concerning the transit budget, you spent too much, cut back and live with in your means.
Second, seems Penny Scaber tipped her hand a little too soon.
Appleton lawmaker Penny Bernard Schaber seeks key exemption in budget plan for transit workers | postcrescent.com | Appleton Post Crescent:
"Without changes, Walker's plan would result in the state losing $46.6 million in transit aid. Valley Transit, which runs the Fox Cities' public bus system, would lose $2.5 million out of its $8.5 million budget.
Bernard Schaber is introducing the amendment with state Rep. Tamara Grigsby, D-Milwaukee. It's one of about 100 amendments Democrats are proposing to the repair bill. Debate on the bill is expected to start in the state Assembly today."
Since when did democrats ever have over a 100 amendments at one time? It will take months to go through 20 or 30. I can see them, an amendment to give workers a potty break every two hours. An amendment to have government only buy Kit Kats and not Snickers bars, an amendment that state workers wear red ribbons every second Tuesday of the month. An amendment to recognize Jim Doyle and the last Wisconsin legislature as hero's of the state unions. What a bunch of crap
It just a stall tactic! Can you hear them when Fitzgerald gives them two minutes of discussion per amendment, Schaber will say "it is a travesty of democracy, give us our time to speak!" Penny, it's a crock. Good try!

The Fight Is On
Boehner rips Obama's meddling - Richard Moore:
"For labor, of course this remains all about collective bargaining and their ability to control government bank accounts. For Democrats this is the opening salvo of the 2012 presidential campaign, and that raises the stakes in Wisconsin even more.
The fight is on."

RINO Reid Ribble Votes With Obama?
From the New American. I knew this was just a matter of time.
Can someone, anyone, help me out here, why did Reid Ribble vote against useless spending?
Is the Reign of "Czars" Over?: "
The Reign of the Czars, at least in the executive branch of the U.S. government, may be near an end. Congressman Steve Scalise (R-La.) offered an amendment that would block funding for the various 'czars' — policy advisers appointed by the President who did not have to face formal confirmation by the U.S. Senate, and who cannot be impeached by the House of Representatives. The amendment (to the continuing resolution which keeps the federal government operating) passed the House February 17 by a vote of 249 to 171.
The vote was largely along party lines, with Wisconsin Congressman Reid Ribble the only Republican voting against the measure. Thirteen Democrats voted for the Scalise amendment. Although most of these were “Blue Dog” Democrats from the South — Dan Boren (Okla.), Ben Chandler (Ky.), Henry Cuellar and Gene Green of Texas, Nick Rahall (W.Va.), Mike Ross (Ark.), and North Carolina's Heath Shuler, Mike McIntyre and Larry Kissell — some Democrats who have been friends of the Obama administration voted for the amendment: Jerry Costello (Ill.), Peter DeFazio (Ore.), Ed Pastor (Ariz.), and Jim Matheson (Utah)"
The only republican? Ribble wants to keep these Czars? Tell me this is a print error. Is this some deal he made with Obama at the Super Bowl Party? Is this Ribble reaching across to work with Obama and the democrats? What the hell is he thinking!
Will a Ribble supporter please explain why your guy voted no? This must be a pay back for the great food at Obamas party. Yea that's it!
God, does this mean he is the RINO I thought he was? Time will tell!

Why Not Unionize Catholic Schools?
This truly tests our faith. Sorry Lord, I am just being honest.
Real Debate Wisconsin: Milwaukee Archbishop Listecki – Catholic Social Justice proponent:
"Milwaukee Archbishop Listecki – Catholic Social Justice proponent
The Archbishop injected his thoughts into the current Madison “debate” this week over the issue of public unions and their right to collective bargaining. Among other comments he noted that “hard times do not nullify the moral obligation each of us has to respect the legitimate rights of workers.'

Poll: Not Good For Unions, Hummmmmmm
Via Dad29
Poll: Public unions a hard sell - Ben Smith - POLITICO.com:
"February 18, 2011
Categories: Labor
Poll: Public unions a hard sell
A new poll from the Washington-based Clarus Group asked:
Do you think government employees should be represented by labor unions that bargain for higher pay, benefits and pensions ... or do you think government employees should not be represented by labor unions?
A full 64% of the respondents said 'no.'
That includes 42% of Democrats, and an overwhelming majority of Republicans. Only 49% of Democrats think public workers should be in unions at all.
That's on the fundamental right to organize, before you get to wages and benefits. And that puts Scott Walker in a pretty good political place."
DECERTIFY, Give us right to work!
Go Scott Walker.
