Those heading up national and state political parties have to be wondering how outsiders have managed to come in and hijack their operations. Both the Republican and Democratic parties are dealing with subversive attacks that threaten to derail their political directions–and alienate some of their largest support bases. This clearly started with the 2016 Presidential…… MORE
Unbelievable! (If it Hurts Our Cause)
If you say that just the mere presence of a conservative speaker on a college campus makes you feel threatened or uncomfortable, administrators will bend over backwards to accommodate you. There will be “safe spaces” created in another building, student activists groups will rally around you, comforting you and reassuring you that the bad, evil…… MORE

The Folly of “Controlling” Nature
While the folks in Washington are saying “now is not the time to talk about global climate change”, I’m more than willing to take on the topic in the wake of our back-to-back hurricanes hitting the US. Remember that “taking steps to reverse climate change” is an effort by man to control nature. We firmly believe…… MORE
She’s One of “Us”
I know we still have three and a half months to go, but I think the winner for this year’s “Least Surprising News Story” is the arrest and conviction of Oshkosh Common Councillor Caroline Panske for marijuana possession and driving with an open intoxicant. In case you missed the news over the weekend, Panske was…… MORE
Do You Hear a Window of Opportunity Closing?
Another NFL season is here, and the Green Bay Packers are moving one year closer to Aaron Rodgers’ retirement. The way I see it, they are wasting another precious season for number 12 to lead them to the promised land. Let’s go to the picks!! Week 1 vs Seattle–The Packers have won the last…… MORE
How the Rule of Law Works
In his “governance by chaos” style, President Trump is forcing Congress to address immigration issues with a tight six-month deadline by promising to repeal the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy instituted by President Obama.

Why would Oshkosh Corp–long a good neighbor here in the city–out of the blue ask officials if they could buy the site? …… MORE
Run To the Roses

Tonight vs Utah State–The last time the Aggies came to Camp Randall, the Badgers barely won and Barry Alvarez hired their Head Coach Gary Anderson after Brett Bielema quit to go…… MORE
Look For the Helpers
Whenever natural disasters or tragedies strike, I like to think of the advice Fred Rogers–or Mister Rogers for those old enough to remember–provided when he was asked how to talk to kids about such big and scary events: “My mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are…… MORE
