So is the Governor of Wisconsin yet you seem to be wet in your pants for any recall elections, and you don't even have a vote.

Yet repeal of Obamacare that I demonstrated thru polls, is not a desire of the majority, is untouchable law?

Hypocrisy? Of course, deal with it!

LOL - hardly.

The health care law repeal attempt was voted upon earlier this year, and already failed.

The recalls in Wisconsin may fail, too. Or may pass.

Both are moving along their legal, constitutional channels as the voters want.

Nothing hypocritical about that at all, is there?

Yes, I'll be sending more money to Wisconsin Democrats, to help their repeal efforts. Glad to do it :tro:

I wasn't aware that this was put to a vote of the people of America. I seem to remember it as being done by politicians.

Oh, you don't know how that works? We elect politicians to represent us based upon what they promise to do for us? All the Republicans and Democrats that have promised us health care over the years - in addition to Social Security, Medicare, etc. ?

Yeah, that was all done against the continuing will of the majority of American people over the past decades ;)

I'm still waiting to find out how the insurance industry will lose " 800,000+ jobs ", when they've already added an estimated 18 million to their insurance rolls, and will get up to 30 million new clients.

Wisconsin Justice Prosser assaults another judge
 
The above title should read "allegedly", I guess.

Yeah, good thing this complete loser guy was elected to the Supreme Court in Wisconsin. Maybe he has dementia. First he announces to the world his purpose on the court will be to support the governor's agenda, now he's under investigation for assaulting another judge.

Old, angry white guys. It's sad. McCain, Prosser ...

Big long article with much detail here:

Quote:

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser allegedly grabbed fellow Justice Ann Walsh Bradley around the neck in an argument in her chambers last week, according to at least three knowledgeable sources.

They say an argument that occurred before the court’s release of a decision upholding a bill to curtail the collective bargaining rights of public employees culminated in a physical altercation in the presence of other justices. Bradley purportedly asked Prosser to leave her office, whereupon Prosser grabbed Bradley by the neck with both hands.

In March, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that, in a disagreement over a case last year, Justice Prosser had called Justice Abrahamson a “total bitch” and threatened to “destroy” her. Prosser, the paper reported, confirmed making the remarks, saying he “probably overreacted” while accusing Justices Abrahamson and Bradley of being “masters at deliberately goading people into perhaps incautious statements.”

Hats off again to Walker

Quote:

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Scott Walker will veto a part of the state budget that would have changed the way chewing tobacco products are taxed in the state.


Walker spokesman Cullen Werwie tells The Associated Press on Friday that Walker opposes the change put into the budget by the Legislature because it could lower the price of some tobacco products and make them more attractive to children.


Werwie released details of the veto to the AP in advance of Walker signing the budget and announcing other vetoes on Sunday.


The American Cancer Society and other groups lobbied Walker to veto the tax change, which would have taxed smokeless tobacco products based on their weight rather than a percentage of their price. The current price-based system ensures all such products are taxed equally.

I've very happy New York legalized gay marriage. The GOP Governors union-busting agenda is being implemented in multiple states, and I'm quite happy to help people in those states fight the removal of individual freedom.

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser needs to resign immediately. Assaulting a judge is a felony in Wisconsin. He has committed physical assault on a coworker. He has a history of verbal abuse in the workplace. He could be brought up under Title VII.

Do you agree or not?

I'm happy for the New York law and think it should be the law of the land.

Prosser didn't assault anyone. And oooooo verbal abuse and title 7? :eek:

You have a current, US President who has our troops, fighting a illegal war, under the command of a foreign entity, yet he claims there is no war, despite there being tape and you're concerned with a story of a Supreme Court Justice from a State not your own, who assaulted an underling?

Blinks On!

Blinks on? ROFLMAO. You are commenting, but obviously didn't even bother to read the story - which is it, Dell? "Didn't assault anyone" or "assaulted an underling"

Factually, it's neither of your imagined scenarios: Prosser physically assaulted another Justice on the Supreme court

He absolutely needs to resign by end of business Monday.

It allegedly happened in her chambers? Is she the only judge w/o a bailiff? He assaulted no one or she failed to report a crime. Considering their previous relationship I'll take the former.

BTW By your reponse I take it you DO think the alleged assault is more important than Lybia. :zz: Blinks On for sure!

You still apparently haven't read any articles about what's happening with this, have you? :D

And take my lack of reponse (sic) about unicorns to indicate I think Prosser was riding one when he attacked his fellow judge ;)

Over/under on Prosser resignation: Weiner took three weeks, I'll bet Prosser is gone in two.

Naw. Just NYTimes, Forbes, Associated Press, etc. National media attention forcing both candidates to make more detailed statements today more directly addressing the situation (Prosser of course blames his victim, the victim sez no, her neck did not attack him as he alleges). The police chief is addressing charges on Monday, too.

Quote:

Yesterday's blockbuster headline that rightwing WI Supreme Court justice David Prosser may have committed battery against fellow justice Ann Walsh Bradley continues to make news, as both Prosser and Bradley have now released on the record statements giving their differing accounts of the incident.

Initially, both justices were circumspect in their reaction. When first contacted, Prosser reportedly said: "I have nothing to say about it" and Bradley also said "I have nothing to say."

Later in the day yesterday, however, as the media storm in Wisconsin gathered force, Prosser issued a statement:

"Once there's a proper review of the matter and the facts surrounding it are made clear, the anonymous claim made to the media will be proven false. Until then I will refrain from further public comment."

Sources close to him then approached the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel anonymously, which reported his version like this:

According to [these sources], Bradley charged Prosser, who raised his hands to defend himself and made contact with her neck.

Those comments led to a full on the record statement by Bradley, as quoted in the Journal-Sentinel:

"The facts are that I was demanding that he get out of my office and he put his hands around my neck in anger in a chokehold. Those are the facts and you can try to spin those facts and try to make it sound like I ran up to him and threw my neck into his hands, but that's only spin."

Matters of abusive behavior in the workplace aren't resolved by competing press releases.

I'm confident the appropriate authorities will conduct a thorough investigation of this incident involving abusive behavior in the workplace.

While Bradley did an excellent job of calling out Prosser's "blame the victim" tactic, it's unfortunate she's choosing to describe the incident as abusive behavior in the workplace, rather than the felonious battery on a justice that Prosser appears to have committed.

Over the next day or two it will be interesting to see if the Wisconsin Judicial Commission confirms that an investigation is underway. Its initial statement on the matter was to neither confirm nor deny, but now that both parties involved are on the record that something happened the Commission may in fact have to acknowledge that it has received a formal complaint. Its rules state:

"Should a complaint or investigation become known to the public, the Commission may issue a brief statement to confirm its pendency, clarify the procedural aspects of the proceedings, state that the judge denies the allegations, [etc.]"

Do some of you guys just not bother to read newspapers and learn about stuff that happens in your state before you talk about it?

Looks like she did indeed do something at the time: a Wisconsin Judicial Commission investigation is ongoing from then; and today the Dane Country Sheriff announced a second investigation.

LOL - I think you need to look up the definitions of the words you use before you try to use them in desperation where it really doesn't apply.

I am talking about two specific people: David Prosser, who is old, has a documented history of public anger, and is white; and John McCain, who is old, has a documented history of public anger, and is white.

Two old angry white guys.
