January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007 the
day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives
and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th Congress.
The Democrat Party controlled a majority in both chambers
for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in
1995.

"What is government? What is political power?
Government is the local monopoly of physical violence. That is the most basic definition of government.
That is it. It is forcing you to behave by it’s rules.
A little mental exercise. If you do not pay your taxes what happens? A man with a gun comes and threatens you with violence. Do not follow any government dictate for long enough and you will end up with a gun pointed at you. Which is why every time you hear someone say "They should do something about Xâ€, where "they†invariably means the government you should ask the complainer if the problem is really important enough to have someone get a gun pointed at them.
Now, what is political power at its most basic level? The ability to direct the government to do your bidding.
Is this basic enough for you to understand why the accumulation of massive political power should concern everyone, not just Conservatives?"

It is currently overcast and dreary outside, and I'm hoping like hell the rain holds off. If I don't drink too much beer I'll post photos and shit later, but if it isn't raining I'll burn wood in the backyard. And drink beer.
(Update)
The rally was well attended, and I happened to meet my brother and nephew there under the TGFSW (Thank God For Scott Walker) banner. I showed a bit late due to family obligations, but compared to previous TEA Party rallies the crowd size was at least double. The takeaway: people are ginned up for the recall election, and boy howdy am I optimistic.
After the rally, I recommended a nearby dive for drinks and conversation with like-minded folks. Yeah, the Trail's End is a townie tavvie, but I know the owner. I believe he is a conservative because he's crabby, and to me it's pretty much the same thing. I made a couple friends, and came away with a sense of optimism which I previously lacked. Mark these words: Scott Walker shall serve AT LEAST eight years as Governor of the State of Wisconsin. TGFSW.

Walker loses by 1. I'm an eeyore. Not willing to wager, and not hoping I'm right.

I hope I'm wrong.

Saturday the temperature was a bit higher, though the toms weren't gobbling. The rain and wind quieted the birds down, and I got only one bird to respond to my call. I set about to get closer to the call (from the direction of the river to the south of my blind), but I received only one response after I moved. That was it for the day.
Here is a porcupine that I didn't shoot.
Sunday, said "screw the blind, I'm wearing camo, and it's frickin' cold out" so I set out "runnin' and gunnin'". I received responses about half an hour's hike from the trailhead, and followed him into the woods calling to maintain contact and direction. Once again the bird wasn't interested in meeting me, as he moved away whenever I'd get closer. I chased him for about two hours until he crossed the river, and taunted me with gobbles in tall grass about 150 yards away.
Good times. Next year I'm going to blast a big tom, I promise.

The shotgun is clean and oiled, I have a flask of alcohol, and a copy of Skousen's 5000 Year Leap.
I hope to shoot something this year. Or at least see something.
We shall see.
I'll try to take a couple photos if anything fun besides boozin' happens.

"In response, I’ll quote a thought of Epictetus, again, as he has recently been firing my mind.
When any person does ill by you, or speaks ill of you, remember that he acts or speaks from a supposition that it is his duty. Now, it is not possible that he should follow what appears to be right to you, but only what appears so to himself. Therefore, if he judges from a wrong appearance, he is the person hurt, since he, too, is the person deceived. For if any one supposes a true proposition to be false, the proposition is not hurt, but he who is deceived about it. Setting out, then, from these principles, you will mildly bear with one who reviles you, for you will say upon every occasion: "It seemed so to him.†(bold by ed.)

If Walker goes down to the likes of Union toadie Kathleen Falk, we truly are boned.

Liberals love to think of themselves as intellectual and nuanced, but liberalism is incredibly simplistic. It’s nothing more than "childlike emotionalism applied to adult issues.†Very seldom does any issue that doesn’t involve pandering to their supporters boil down at its core level to more than feeling "nice†or "mean†to liberals. This makes liberals ill equipped to deal with complex issues.
Please read the whole thing... it is true and rare.

The Verify The Recall Database is live.
I've had difficulty getting on, either through legitimate traffic or DDoS, but that won't last forever. Then the commie hunt begins. I hope a bunch of corrupt bastards end up suffering the consequence of their fraud.
I'm happy to have seen the effort through, and I'm proud of the effort of the volunteers. I spent nearly every night since the petition release entering data... I could have done more.
Second: "We have danced and danced with Wisconsin politicians. We don't like to dance and we are now done dancing in Wisconsin. Forever." - an Unnamed Mining Company Representative.
The State Mining Bill went down today.
I'd like to stipulate that Senator Tim Carpenter is a weak-kneed, limp-wristed, commie bitch.
The contemptible piece of shit Dale Schultz (RINO-Richland Center) sided with the commies to shoot down the State Senate mining bill compromise. The bill was not to approve the proposed iron mine (in the State's most economically depressed area), but to allow a process in which there was a tangible endpoint. The mine proposal would still have had to wade through the alphabet soup of departments, bureaus, and agencies in order to obtain a permit, but the mother fucking commies (including Dale Schultz) pretended all the while that everybody would glow in the dark and have three-eyed babies if a mine were allowed to APPLY to operate. Who cares there are mines operating in harmonic compliance with EPA regs less than a quarter tank of gas away... And who cares that the average family income in the area of the proposed mine is $23,000 per year.
The State Senator currently holding office in the district in which I live is a commie. You may remember Jessica King from her love-fest with the "Fuck The Troops" blogger Ian Murphy. Senator King the commie won our district Senate seat in a recall against Randy Hopper by a margin of about 1,200 votes (around 1% IIRC) in a district that trends 56% conservative. In my eyes, she was the deciding vote against the mining permit application process streamlining... and therefore it was her vote which prevented a $1.5 billion dollar job-creating endeavor in an economically-depressed area. She and she alone is responsible for strangling these jobs before they could ever leave the crib.
The good news: She Has A Challenger. Meet Rick Gudex. His website currently stinks, but that can be fixed. What the guy DOES have on his side is organization, drive, goals, an articulate message, and a weak, gaffe-prone communist opponent who barely managed to win office despite a highly-motivated base against a flawed incumbent. I'm going balls-deep on the Gudex campaign, and I believe that with hard work he will win.
Jessica King: Hope you've had fun. Get the fuck out.

Wonderful news.
There is an incomplete list circulating (with a search tool) which can be found at Put Wisconsin First, but the Verify The Recall searchable database will go live on Wednesday night. I presume the VTR database will most likely be found through the VTR website
I'm absolutely delighted that the data entry is complete for the Walker challenge. I believe there was a substantial drop off in enthusiasm as the days (then weeks) dragged on. I began to worry we'd not complete.

In other news, I attended the "It's Working Wisconsin Town Hall" event sponsored by Americans For Prosperity and the MacIver Institute. Speakers included Luke Hilgeman (State Director of the AFP Foundation), Brian Fraley from the MacIver Institute, Rep Robin Vos (WI Joint Finance Co-Chair), Rep Jim Steineke, and Ben Schneider (Oshkosh School Board).
One of the highlights was the new video effort by AFP and MacIver to showcase the results of Act 10. Check out their website HERE.
It was great, and afterward one of the Oshkosh TEA Party activists let me know US Senate Candidate Mark Neumann would be dropping through the Republican HQ in Oshkosh. Neumann is a proven budget slasher, and is endorsed by Senators Rand Paul and Jim DeMint (two conservative rock-stars if ever there were). I've concluded that this is his time, and he is the man. Mark Neumann is the best choice to represent Wisconsin in our war against the bastard commie horde. Neumann for Senate 2012!
Screw the commies, and Baracka Hussein SCOAMF Obama is a limp-wristed Marxist bitch.

The world lost a great man today.
Rest in Peace, Proud Warrior. My prayers for you and your family.
May millions carry the sword you joyfully wielded. We are still at war, brother, and we'll carry the fight... but you'll be sorely missed.
Unbelievable.
Awful.

I have a bunch of examples of bullshit perpetrated by the Blue-Fisters on the recall petitions, and if it suits my fancy I'll share them here after the Verify effort is complete.

While it's entirely stupid to drive a vehicle on ice you aren't familiar with, it's doubly-stupid to park a vehicle on 8-inch ice. If you wish to be even stupider... park right next to another vehicle. Click the photo to embiggen.
We've been on the ice all year, and it was surprising to see vehicles on the bays two weeks ago on 10-inch ice. Still too thin, and temperatures in the 40's sure doesn't make the ice any better.
I feel bad for the people whose vehicles fell through (two were pulled out of this spot before Lil' bot and I arrived), but for heaven's sake the ice has been terrible all year. Don't drive it unless you've tested it. Click to embiggenify the photo.
Best regards to all, and I look forward to the Verify project wrapping up soon. TGFSW!
