The Journal Sentinel’s Dan Bice reports that County Board spokesman Harold Mester has been helping Supervisors Elizabeth Coggs and Toni Clark, dodge the media so they would not have to face Bice and other media members to answer questions about their junket to the Obama inauguration. You remember that trip, the one they initially stuck the taxpayers with, before being exposed and forced to repay… Well, one of them repaid. Here is what Mester stated in a note:
“You probably already know this, but be advised that Dan Bice or other members of the local media could conceivably be in attendance at any of your upcoming public appearances, including Committee and Board meetings.
“I don’t know for sure, but it’s always possible. Just wanted to make sure you’re not caught off guard if they try to track you down. They were here in the lobby this afternoon, but I deflected most of their questions.”
Why is Mester, who is paid by the taxpayers, helping corrupt board members dodge questions?
I asked Dan if he has heard anything about Toni Clark’s repayment, and as of a few days ago, he has had no word of her following through with her promise to repay us taxpayers… I’m so proud that she is my county supervisor.

1. Lena Taylor - ok to drive down wrong side of street if public official. Police will cancel ticket if pressured. Oh, wait, maybe not?
2. Coggs - only have to give back money that is stolen from children if you get caught.
3. Clark - pretend to give money back that you stole from the children when caught and everyone will forget.
4.Holloway - blame someone else, white conservatives are the problem.
5. Pretend child care givers - steal money from everyone elses children, Doyle will raise more money.
6. 49% truancy rate, lunchless kids - blame teachers and MPS, not parents and students.
7. Drunk MATC offical - set good example for the students, even if your totally incompetent, you can gets paid if backed by liberals at the expense of the community, businesses, and jobs the school is training them for.
8. Community organizes vigils for criminals, murderers, and drug dealers, instead of organizing to get their kids to school.
9. Community orgainizes to get paid vacation/sick leave, but then is suprised when they find themselves jobless and the businesses leave.
If I were the media, I would have a field day with this stuff?

Media……WHAT media???? If we didn’t have talk radio we wouldn’t know anything about what’s going on with the county board. What do they report on? Certainly not these idiots. The media AND the county board make me sick. Shut them both down. What good are they? I mean, REALLY!

John is almost right Dan Bice broke this story.
I see the Urinals “crack” reporters have followed up on it?
If the Urinal was a household appliance it would be the Milwaukee Hoover, because it sucks out loud.
