Delavan-Darien Schoold District Knows What is Best for Your Kids

There is something seriously wrong with this system when a school has the right to tell you that you can't choose the school that you want your child to attend.  How does this School Administrator have any clue what is best for this child?

Right Wisconsin:

The Delavan-Darien School District denied a family's request to enroll their children in a neighboring school district by citing the "best interest" of the children.

"We believe it is in the best interest of your children to attend the Delavan-Darien School District," said a letter from Superintendent Robert Crist to Les and Carol Paur. "Your application for the above students to transfer out of the Delavan-Darien School District into the Williams Bay School District under the open enrollment program has been denied by the Delavan-Darien School District for the 2014-15 school year."

Carol Paur, the mother of the students seeking transfer, explained to Charlie Sykes on 620 WTMJ that her daughters were previously enrolled in a Catholic school but were leaving due to financial considerations. Their daughter Elizabeth suffers from anxiety and sought to enroll in Williams Bay, a smaller school district, because of the size and some familiarity with students.

Torture Report More About Politics Than Anything

So the Democrats in the Senate decided to lay out a report documenting the so called "torture" of prisoners captured after 9-11. 

The reports were detailed and meant to make everyone cringe and to sell the narrative that the people writing them wanted.

I might not be the moral compass for good in the world based on my views, because I want the people in the CIA and Military to have the ability to do whatever it takes to keep us safe from these Terrorists.  If it takes some Jack Bauer type moves to keep us safe, then so be it.  We keep talking about this moral high road that we are suppose to take.  While the Terrorist are killing thousands of civilians in buildings, beheading others and planning attacks on any of us, we are suppose to be worried about not treating them right?  Seriously?  A vast majority of Americans don't live under a rock.  They know this stuff goes on and I believe understand that it sometimes takes people getting their hands dirty to keep us safe. 

I find it ironic that the President and these Democrats come out and have a problem with sleep deprivation, threats and waterboarding, yet have no problem with outright killing them.  That's right, you can't capture someone, keep them up for 48 hours and question them over and over again.  That is torture.  However, it is just fine to send in a drone and kill not only the Terrorist but anyone around them.  That is not torture and it passes our moral compass according to Democrats.

For the record, I am fine with drone strikes.  I just don't understand the hypocrisy.

I think the whole report was more about attacking the former President and his administration.  I think it is the Democrats way of trying to make them look bad and play the blame game yet some more.

Gwen Moore and Mark Pocan Vote Against Disabled People

In a rare occurrence  the House of Representatives passed a bi-partisan bill.  The bill was to help disabled Americans with tax relief.  However out of the 17 people to vote against it, Wisconsin had 2 votes, Gwen Moore and Mark Pocan.  The other 404 members voted for it.

Right Wisconsin:

A bill that would allow the disabled to open tax-free savings accounts to pay for qualified disability expenses passed the U.S. House of Representatives on a vote of 404-17 last week. Despite the bill’s overwhelming bipartisan support, Wisconsin’s own Rep. Gwen Moore and Rep. Mark Pocan, both Democrats, joined just 15 other members in voting against helping those who are disabled make ends meet. The vote was completely ignored by Wisconsin media.

If you had any doubt of how far out in Left Field these two representatives are, now you for sure know.

Right Wisconsin:

According to the Associated Press, the ABLE Act:

 

Modeled after tax-free college savings accounts, the bill would amend the federal tax code to allow states to establish the program. To qualify, a person would have to be diagnosed by age 26 with a disability that results in “marked and severe functional limitations”; those who are already receiving Social Security disability benefits would also qualify. Families then would be able to set up tax-free accounts at financial institutions, depositing up to $14,000 annually to pay for long-term needs such as education, transportation and health care.

 

The contributions would be in after-tax dollars but earnings would grow tax-free.

 

The ABLE accounts would be able to accrue up to $100,000 in savings without the person losing eligibility for government aid such as Social Security; currently, the asset limit is $2,000. Medicaid coverage would continue no matter how much money is deposited in the accounts.

Wisconsin Police Lt. - "Today, I stopped caring..."

Well Said.

Right Wisconsin:

A post from DeForest, Wisconsin police Lt. Daniel Furseth has gone viral in recent days appearing on various police and law enforcement blogs and social media pages. Furseth channels the frustration of police officers who work day in and day out to protect and serve even as many use hyperbole to mischaracterize their actions and motives.

Today, I stopped caring about my fellow man. I stopped caring about my community, my neighbors, and those I serve. I stopped caring today because a once noble profession has become despised, hated, distrusted, and mostly unwanted.

I stopped caring today because parents refuse to teach their kids right from wrong and blame us when they are caught breaking the law. I stopped caring today because parents tell their little kids to be good or “the police will take you away” embedding a fear from year one. Moms hate us in their schools because we frighten them and remind them of the evil that lurks in the world.

They would rather we stay unseen, but close by if needed, but readily available to “fix their kid.” I stopped caring today because we work to keep our streets safe from mayhem in the form of reckless, drunk, high, or speeding drivers, only to be hated for it, yet hated even more because we didn’t catch the drunk before he killed someone they may know.

Nevertheless, we are just another tool used by government to generate “revenue.” I stopped caring today because Liberals hate the police as we carry guns, scare kids, and take away their drugs. We always kill innocent people with unjust violence. We are called bullies for using a Taser during a fight, but are condemned further for not first tasing the guy who pulls a gun on us.

And if we do have to shoot, we are asked “why didn’t you just shoot the gun out of their hand?” And when one of us is killed by the countless attacks that do happen (but are rarely reported in the mainstream media) the haters say, “Its just part of the job.” I stopped caring today because Conservatives hate us as we are “the Government.” We try to take away their guns, freedoms, and liberty at every turn.

We represent a “Police State” where “jackbooted badge-wearing thugs” randomly attack innocent people without cause or concern for constitutional rights. We are Waco, Ruby Ridge, and Rodney King all rolled into one lone police officer stopping to help change an old lady’s tire. I stopped caring today as no one wants us around, but instantly demands answers, results, arrests, when a crime takes place.

If a crime isn’t solved within the allocated 60 minutes it takes CSI on television, we are inept, incompetent, or covering something up. If we do get “lucky” it was just that and everyone with a Facebook account can post wonderful comments of how “they” would solve the case and how “we” are not nearly as clever.

I stopped caring today because a video of a cop six states away, from a department that you never heard of, screws up and forgets his oath of honor, thus firing up an internet lynch-mob of cop haters even though 99% of us work twice as hard not to end up in the news and to still be “the good guys.” We are “militarized” because we wear body armor and kevlar helmets when shots are fired or rocks thrown at us and carry scary looking rifles even though everyone knows that they are easier to shoot and are more accurate than a handgun or a shotgun.

I stopped caring today because the culture of today’s instantly connected youth is only there to take and never give back. To never accept responsibility for ones actions, but to blame everyone else instead of themselves. To ask “what is in it for me?” versus “what can I do for you?”

To idolize gangsters, thugs, sexually promiscuous behavior, and criminals over hard work, dedication, and achievement. To argue that getting stoned should be a right, yet getting a job or an education is a hassle. To steal verus earn. To hate versus help. Yes, I stopped caring today. But tomorrow, I will put my uniform back on and I will care again.

Race Problem in St. Louis

It appears that the St. Louis Police are finally taking a look at a race problem in the St. Louis area. 

FOX News:

Bevo Mill residents, whose neighborhood has seen a cumulative 24-percent rise in aggravated assaults over the last three months, say assaults and threats by packs of teenagers against Bosnians have become the norm. One who spoke to FoxNews.com on condition of anonymity due to safety reasons claims he and his family experienced a similar attack and said there is a disturbing pattern of violence against white residents in the area.

"It is common for African-American teens to walk in the middle of the street and block in cars at intersections," said the man, who has lived in the neighborhood for half a decade. "We have been stopped at intersections in Bevo and our car attacked by teens who pound on the car -- laughing at us."

"They only do this to white individuals, who they have learned will generally not respond. There is a pattern here and it is racially motivated," he alleged. "Many of us are arming ourselves in order to avoid becoming the next victim to be beaten to death in the streets."

 Just recently another man was killed by a group of teen African Americans who beat him to death with hammers. 

It is amazing how the press can latch on to one narrative and make the whole case about race, but turn a blind eye to incidents like this.

CIA Report Puts U.S. in Danger

Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein is hell bent in releasing a report that gets to the dirty part of the work that the CIA did in the years immediately following the attacks on 9/11.  The report is said to illustrate the techniques that were used to interrogate terror suspects.

Many in the Intelligence Community, not just ours, but around the world have warned that this report will be used against the us.  It will put Americans around the globe in danger and will be used by Terror Groups today in recruiting.

So, what is the point in releasing the report?  What is the end game?

Sen. Feinstein says it is to show the things we did and to never let it happen again.  If we have already stopped it and decided that is not how we want to do things, why release the report?

FOX News:

The White House and President Obama are backing the decision to release the report, despite warnings from lawmakers and some inside the administration that it could lead to a backlash against Americans.

This sounds like a partisan political move to me.  Sounds like they don't care much about what this could do to America, our Citizens or our Safety, they just want to release the gory details.

There is even reports of members of the White House's own inner circle not on the same page with this release.

CNN:

In a phone call Friday, Secretary of State John Kerry asked Feinstein to consider the broader implications of the timing of the report's release, said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki.

"A lot is going on in the world, and he wanted to make sure that foreign policy implications were being appropriately factored into timing," Psaki said. "These include our ongoing efforts against ISIL and the safety of Americans being held hostage around the world."

This seems to be how the Democrats and this White House have worked for the last 6 years.  The end results don't really matter as they long as they get their way.
