When their fall-back position is false cries of racism

Stu Levitan and Brian Fraley mix it up on WisOpinion the Show this week, and I have an analysis of the exchange over at FoxPolitics.net.
But Levitan can’t help himself. When Fraley criticizes former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Louis Butler, Levitan comments (at 12:20), “It’s interesting that you would cite Louis Butler right after I talked about racism.” When Fraley calls him on it and asks if he’s not allowed to criticize African American politicians because he is Caucasian, Levitan responds that of course Fraley can talk about African American politicians (thanks for the permission), “But it’s interesting.”
I think its interesting that the political left is already intellectually exhausted by what has been a rather shallow political campaign season so far. You'd think they would have more to say than false cries of "racism."

No hypocrisy here

You show me yours and... you show me yours. Mine will stay zipped up.

Over at FoxPolitics.net, I summarize the Soglin/Cap Times/WMC controversy.

By the way, as a means of full disclosure, I have received $0.00 in donations since starting this blog. (You bunch of cheap bastards.) Therefore I have no conflicts of interest. Using the progressive scale that claims that the bigger the pile of money the more evil the entity, this blog is nearing sainthood.

Mark it down

Over at FoxPolitics.net, I wrote about the absurdity of the Democrats wanting to punish "Big Oil" for big profits when they refuse to do anything to repeal the law that mandates profits, the minimum markup law.

Letters from Shirley

Over at FoxPolitics.net, I comment on the fundraising efforts by septuagenarian State Supreme Court Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson.
But no claim of bi-partisan support is going to protect Abrahamson from the likely onslaught of third-party advertisements, just as any Abrahamson opponent can expect third-party attacks as well. As liberal judicial philosophy becomes increasingly outcome-based rather than on the specific intent of the law and the state constitution, interest groups have an increased incentive to attempt influencing the outcomes of judicial elections.
