Caucus testimony release advocated (Milw. Journal-Sentinel)
Wisconsin AG Lautenschlager is advocating the release of John Doe information taken from lobbyists and Capitol staffers pertaining to the worst case of political corruption and scandal in recent Wisconsin history.

There are many implications concerning this-it mirrors both national and international concerns over the influence of lobbyists with politicians, as well as accountibility and transparency issues.

The level of corruption here in a State with a progressive tradition is a legacy of Tommy Thompson.

3. So it continues-Republican US Cong. Mark Green's gubernatorial campaign
refused to return illegal out of state PAC money as ruled on by the State Elections Board.

We've got Senselessbrenner. We've got corruption that was nurtured and encouraged by Tommy Thompson throughout his reactionary reign.

Wisconsin, our motto and tradition "Progress", is a major BFEE stronghold thanks to the real fascists here-that have names and hidden histories that need exposure.

All power to the people-like OUR Constitution and Bill of Rights guaranteed as a healthy part of democracy, must be defended and taken back from the real fascists and their confederates.
