克里集会
参议员约翰·克里8月2日星期一再次访问密尔沃基，出席在马凯特公园举行的公众集会。公园的大门在下午4:30开放，当时总统候选人还在乘坐湖泊快线(Lake Express)渡轮快速穿越密歇根湖。如今，进入克里公园需要经过安全人员的彻底检查，所以下午6点，从公园入口普兰金顿(Plankinton)和基尔伯恩(Kilbourn)开始，排成了一条线，穿过河流，到达马库斯表演艺术中心(Marcus Center for the Performing Arts)，然后向北延伸，环绕着公园，向东进入东州立街(E. State Street)，最后在爱迪生街(N. Edison Street)渐行渐远。图片请点击这里。队伍缓慢移动，保安检查与会者，清空口袋等。一旦进入安全围栏，人群就可以从W. Wells St.的一个有趣的新地点亚马逊披萨(Amazon pizza)购买瓶装水和披萨。然而，许多人从未通过安全检查，他们只是在河边露营，在马库斯中心的河滨步道上享受活动。这是一个很好的镜头，因为候选人克里在公园北端的一个凸起的平台上讲话，不时地向远处海岸的人做手势。唉，密尔瓦基世界几乎已经听命于对这次活动的远距离报道，但事实证明，这次活动有一个特殊的入口，我们打算把它变成我们的入口。乔·克莱因和我向基尔伯恩和N.第三街的交口走去，那里有一个军官站在那里，他告诉我们，我们不能走到放在我们视线范围内的新闻台前，因为我们够不到。与此同时，他向参议员赫伯·科尔、众议员谢尔登·沃瑟曼、史蒂夫·马库斯等知名人士挥手示意，他们都有红票，而我们一个也没有。 Providentially, Margaret Henningsen showed up on the scene with an extra red ticket, which we begged for and received. The red ticket made us legit for the officer, and we proceeded through our screening, after watching several of the people mentioned above get screened themselves. (Steve Marcus does not look like a guy who gets frisked a lot.) Inside the gates of the special section, where the red-ticketed people go, we were treated to a fascinating caste system in which our “Kerry Edwards From Sea to Shining Sea Believe in America Tour” Press pass marked us as scum. The real media stars, and there were dozens of them, were members of the “Traveling Press.” The Traveling Press spends its time apart from the regular press, and they dine together in a fancy tent. The food was from Chef Pat’s catering. Pat Houlihan said the campaign kept changing its meal plans, but he settled on roast pork sandwiches, a couple of salads, pretzels, soft drinks and Miller Beer. The Traveling Press drinks very little beer, which in the end turned out to be a blessing for Chef Pat’s weary and thirsty crew. The […]

Plale召回行动开始
一群南部的政治活动人士能够团结起来，获得13212个签名，迫使参议员杰夫·普莱(Jeff Plale)进行罢免选举吗?众议员理查兹说，他对此表示怀疑。众议员Josh Zepnick说:“这件事不会有结果。”“这些人太懒了!他们在报纸上登广告，让人们来签署一份召回请愿书。谁来做这件事?”真的足够了。为了赢得选举，你必须挨家挨户地敲门，在窗户上贴标语，做各种各样的草根活动。在普莱的召回尝试中，这方面的证据很少，在普莱所在地区的北部边缘，包括布雷迪街和东区，也绝对没有这方面的证据。但这并没有阻止普莱打印数千份足球赛程，并随时分发出去。 The South Milwaukeean made the journey to St. Rita’s Church last week to attend the Brady Street Association monthly meeting where he was asked about the recall. “They’ve got until September 7th to get the signatures to recall me,” Plale told the audience. When told there seemed to be no effort on the East Side to circulate petitions, Plale said, “well, these people wouldn’t know how to find Brady Street.” Plale was also in the Brady Street area for what the neighborhood hopes is an annual Artisinal Food Festival. The gig was held Sunday, July 25th, and Plale was there along with his schedules. The recall effort against him stemmed from his crucial vote to uphold Governor Doyle’s veto of a republican-sponsored measure to limit property tax increases. Plale says the upcoming plans to sponsor a constitutional amendment known as the Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights, (TABOR) is similarly flawed, and a potential recipe for disaster. He cites Colorado, a state that has enacted similar provisions into its laws and is now in the midst of its worst fiscal crisis ever. Amendment on the Run The legislature republicans spent the last unedifying session promoting the agenda of Gays, Guns and Gambling. The Madison gang came up with loads of goofy legislation, none of which could sustain a veto by the governor. Leave it to this group to be able to reconvene and pass a constitutional amendment, no less, in just one week. This was the decision of Sen. Mary Panzer, the republican leader who had earlier been criticized for not rushing a Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights law through the Solomonic deliberations of the nation’s most august lawmakers. But, as soon as she faced a primary challenge from Rep.Glenn Grothman, an ambitious fellow republican who covets her senate seat, Panzer decided to schedule a vote for this week. Then, the legislature can go home and come back next year to vote again. Then, finally, the matter will be put to public vote in a referendum, if it is still alive. But, if the legislature does not act by August 5th, the whole procedure would have to be repeated in yet one […]

《桥》的“开创性”
没有铁锹就不是真正的破土动工，所以公共工程部的Cecelia Gilbert带来了五把使用良好的铁锹，尽管是礼仪性的，5月27日周四庆祝霍尔顿有袋动物桥开始建设。热心的政要们察觉到这是在拍照，便抓起铁锹，做着把铁锹挖进霍尔顿高架桥下面的沥青路面的手势。仪式安排为市长汤姆·巴雷特(Tom Barrett)举行，他在参加女儿的钢琴独奏会之前也出席了仪式。其他客人包括Ald。Michael S. D 'Amato, Ald。迈克尔·i·麦基，小，主管格里·布罗德里克和詹姆斯·怀特，以及前州参议员布莱恩·伯克。朱莉·科勒(Julilly Kohler)担任此次活动的司仪，她的发言很谨慎，但她还是设法说出了所有帮助她实现梦想的人的名字。其中包括“来自第五区的前国会议员”，布莱恩·伯克这样称呼他的小学老朋友汤姆·巴雷特，他作为市长第一次在公共工程项目上交出了仪式用的铲子。建筑师James Dallman和他的妻子Grace La以及Mathew P. Tharaniyil和Yakov N. Nenaydykh也在现场，他们分别是总统和Bloom咨询公司的副总裁，他们是横跨霍尔顿高架桥的项目工程师，架起了“有袋动物”桥——一条自行车和人行道，将在布雷迪街社区和湖前啤酒店及其周围的啤酒线“B”社区之间提供水平通道。威斯康星州交通部长Frank Busalacchi或隆达建筑公司(Lunda Construction)的任何代表都缺席了这次活动。隆达建筑公司是黑河瀑布市的一家建筑公司，赢得了建造这座桥的竞标。 Lunda appears to be a publicity-averse organization. The firm has expressed a reservation about having webcams at the construction site, saying they might reveal some “trade secrets” of the mysterious, arcane art of bridge building. Good heavens! It’s a bridge, not a plutonium refinery. Also missing from the event was Whitney Gould, although you wouldn’t have known it from the article she managed to write about it for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the next morning. She reported, correctly, that the Mayor was there, in an otherwise generic story composed of previously reported items. Sonya Jongsma-Knauss and Vince Bushell of the Riverwest Currents were there. The sole representative of the electronic media was Channel 58. Afterwards, the crowd of 100 or so headed up to the Lakefront Brewery Palm Garden where owner Russ Klisch turned on the taps. Earlier that day, a stressed Russ was trying to get his new bottling machine to behave. Even so, it still chewed up a few bottles as it went through its shakedown cruise. Sales manager Paul Moebius said things are going well at the brewery – maybe too well. “We’re running out of beer!” he said. Last year’s sales were 5,000 barrels, and this year the brewery could hit 7,000 barrels. This is better than 2 […]

有四分之一爱尔兰血统的犹太法官
上周五，州长詹姆斯·e·道尔(James E. Doyle)在莫的爱尔兰酒吧(Mo’s Irish Pub)对大约75人说，“作为州长，我可以做很多好事。我有权任命法官作为一名律师和法官的儿子，我很认真地对待这件事。”州长对法官有什么要求?-到目前为止，他已经任命了其中的6人-“我有一个非常非常优秀的人的名单。我可以从帽子里挑出来。但我看重的是智慧、公平和对人的理解。而且，坦率地说，也需要一些非常必要的多样性。”多伊尔去年任命格伦·山博(Glenn Yamahiro)为密尔沃基县巡回法院法官时，就很好地体现了多样性。Yamahiro曾是公设辩护律师、私人执业律师和精神失常学生的老师，也是威斯康星州第一位担任律师的亚裔美国人。 He is that, and more, the crowd, gathered for a fundraiser, was to learn. Yamahiro told the crowd that he was proud to be “the first [judicial] appointee by a democratic governor in almost 20 years.” Yamahiro is running for a full term against former Judge Robert Crawford, whose antics on the bench in the past cost him his seat to Judge Louis Butler, who was present, as were such other judges as Jean DiMotto, Ted Wedemeyer, Tom Donegan, Paul Wall and judge wannabees like Audrey Skwierawski. Attorneys including the venerable Dominic Frinzi and Mark Thomsen popped in for the gig. Yamahiro has already proven himself to be one of the more amusing speakers on the bench, and among politicians generally. “I told the governor at the time of my appointment that any opponent I would get would be buried at the election. “Now we have to come through on that promise,” he said, to the general assent of the assembled, not eager for a return of the goofy Crawford. Yamahiro rubbed it in: “If it was an election of the informed, we wouldn’t need this gathering,” he said. Do not think that Yamahiro tried to coast by solely on the merits of his wit and the novelty of his Asian background. “I am the first Asian-American judge in Wisconsin, but I did have a grandma in Iowa, born about 100 years ago. Her name was Morrissey. So I have 25 percent Irish blood, and I am happy to be in Mo’s Irish Pub with the Guinness flowing.” The crowd really liked this intercultural news, and I talked to Deja Vishny, a public defender with a really cool name – and yet another story. “I’m Glenn’s wife,” she said. The couple has one child, who attends a Jewish elementary school. “I’m Jewish,” she explained. “So is Glenn,” she added. Observations From the Governor On the Legislature You get the feeling from Governor Jim Doyle that the legislature is acting like a pesky housefly that he has to keep swatting at. The recent meetings of the august representatives of the people were characterized in this […]

克拉克得到了两个州的支持
威斯康辛州的两位老政治家最近加入了韦斯利·克拉克竞选总统的行列。前市议员、国务卿和律师维尔·菲利普斯最近为代理市长马文·普拉特宣誓就职。她说，她支持这位阿肯色州将军竞选总统。在她的支持下，她加入了查尔斯·兰格尔和安德鲁·杨等黑人领袖的行列。1月27日星期二，菲利普斯参加了在朱莉·w·科勒家中为克拉克举办的募捐活动。菲利普斯说，她刚刚和亨利·亚伦通过电话，他提出给她寄机票，并安排她2月6日在亚特兰大参加他的生日派对。“哦，我不确定我是否会去，”维尔说，这让参加派对的人感到沮丧，他们无法想象拒绝亨利·亚伦的任何邀请，无论是否有免费的航空旅行和住宿。她到星期天还没有决定。威尔·菲利普斯面临许多决定。离开市政会议后，她买了那张市议员们曾经用过的旧卷顶桌子，直到现在的宝石安装完毕。这张桌子可能会捐给威斯康星历史学会。 Why not the city-owned Milwaukee Public Library? “Well, the historical society already has a full-size statue of me,” Phillips said. Good enough reason. The attendees, including Frank Gimbel (who has a huge Clark sign posted in his east side yard), Mort and Dani Gendelman, Curry First, Dennis Conta and about 40 others filled the Kohler residence to talk up their man and to dine on way too much food provided from such disparate sources as Sam’s Club and Watermark restaurant. A special guest of honor was to have been former Senator Gaylord Nelson, ranked fourth on a list of the most important Wisconsinites in history. He’s the only one of the top five who is still alive. Alas! Nelson hadn’t even made it as far as the end of the driveway of his Kensington, Maryland home in days, so he called in his visit by speakerphone. Heavy snowfall complicated by quaint Maryland snow removal traditions kept him home, Nelson said. He endorses Clark for president, the Earth Day founder told the attendees in Milwaukee. Nelson speaks very slowly these days. The delivery, although halting, does nothing to mute the intellectual vigor and wit of Nelson. Regarding his choice of the military man for president, the anti-Vietnam War ex-Senator said, “People were wondering how could Gaylord Nelson support a general for president?” (Pause.) “Well, George Washington was a general.” (Pause.) “And he was a pretty good president.” (Laughter.) Apparently, Nelson held republican president Dwight D. Eisenhower in high regard. He noted that General Ike warned us about the military-industrial complex. “This is a fascinating race,” Nelson said, (Pause.) But there is a long way to go.” The State of Wisconsin constitution, as amended, does not give the Lieutenant Governor much to do. This suited Scott McCallum fine, but Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton is a restless sort and has been an early supporter and campaign groupie of […]
