Wisconsin Needs Your Vote for Justice Prosser
If you were in recess, picking your team to play basketball, and you had a choice between Marquette’s Jimmy Butler or Steve Urkel, who would you pick?
What if you were in need of legal help, and you have a choice between an attorney with 13 years experience handling cases just like your case or a paralegal with NO experience in cases like your case, who would you pick?
Pretty obvious, you want the Star! You want the Expert! You want the Best!
Justice Prosser is the Best!
Prosser has 13 years of experience as a Supreme Court Justice and is the most respected and the most well-loved justice on the bench. His opponent, Joanne Kloppenburg has tried 7 appellate cases and has never acted as even a circuit judge.
VOTE JUSTICE PROSSER on April 5th!
Don’t be a fool! Pick the BEST!
Congratulations Republicans!
Gov. Scott Walker has succeeded in limiting some state employee’s collective bargaining agreements, allowing the State to adjust these state employee’s benefits and other perks as the State’s financial needs require.
While this is not a landmark decision, since over twenty other states already have similar laws, this has been a great success for our State, our Governor, and our party as the controversy behind passing the law has received national attention and made Wisconsin a political battleground between liberals and conservatives throughout the country.
Congratulations Wisconsin! Support your Governor, and he will help Wisconsin support itself.

Our Capital or Their Hostel?
Dear Taxpayers,
We have received numerous calls from folks of all views who are NOT happy that our Wisconsin State Capitol is quickly becoming something resembling a French Hostel for Militant Out-of-State Protesters.
These folks might not realize it, but we do things differently here in Wisconsin. For starters, we respect the Constitution and property rights. While we gladly extend our hospitality to visitors, we don’t appreciate having our Capitol treated in the manner in which it has been treated as of late (i.e. trashed.)
For folks that might not remember, it wasn’t so many years ago that the taxpayers of this fine state spent $140 Million on a top-to-bottom renovation.
I was here during a good portion of this work. Each day, I would pass the hardworking men & women up on scaffolds meticulously repairing plaster, painting, cleaning, etc. Visitors over the years have told me we have the most beautiful State Capitol they have ever seen. Based on the high volumes of calls we are receiving, many folks would like to keep it that way.
If you would like to see the Capitol Police restore normalcy to our state’s greatest public building, feel free to call the following number and file a taxpayer complaint about people sleeping here overnight.

Your Party Needs You To Fight For Gov. Walker!
We have only 1 critical day left here in WI that will affect the entire Nation. The vote will take place Thursday!
As Leaders in the GOP, we must get behind and support our great Governor, and the tough decisions our State must now go through due to the shell game Doyle played the last few years. Gov. Walker must now clean up the mess and save our State.
What must WE do?
1. Call your area Republican Assemblymen and State Senators. Everyone should hear from us. EVERY GOP MEMBER!
2. Call even the most ardent conservative legislator! CALL EVERYONE (When the doors close, the pressure is on, folks can cave and change votes.)
3. The dems. and unions are protesting, jamming lines and even having vigils in front of members homes here. Buses will be coming in from all over, to flood the capitol. Our reps are only hearing from those against the budget, they must hear from us!
4. BE NICE! They are our team. Tell them you understand how tough this is, but you are behind them voting for this budget, and you will support them, as they make this unpopular vote. Remind them this is why we sent them to the Capitol, and we agree this must be done. The RIGHT THING, IS NOT, MOST OF THE TIME, THE POPULAR THING! Let them know the left is against, therefore the Governor for sure is right!
5. Be cautious how and where you send your e-mails regarding this! You do not need dems, press etc. getting a hold of this or any other e-mail. Please make sure who is on your list, mail to only folks you know – and only to staunch conservatives. Make some key calls to specific folks you know will communicate well to our reps. The unions are treating this as a battle, and they will do anything and everything to stop it!
Why is this National? The Unions Nationwide are sending protesters and assistance and believe this is ground zero. If WI passes this, it will give backbone to other states and Governors throughout the Country. The tide will then be unstoppable, the unions will lose and be greatly weakened. This is not just about fighting against Gov. Walker and the GOP. It has implications for budgets throughout all of the States! We are setting the precedent!
Lastly – We elected Governor Walker and all the GOP to leadership to do what we know must be done – to solve this budget and financial crisis, so jobs can be created, and our State can be repaired. We must stand with them, behind them and beside them and assist in this fight.
Now is NOT the time to go after possible weak GOP votes, or those who may not commit. That we can do later, if it happens.
No threats! Just call, remind, support and ENCOURAGE! As one Senator you all like stated – “Let them feel the LOVE” when you call. They must hear from us in support!
Governor Walker has moved like a businessman in getting this budget out there and working to solve it. Most Governors are just unpacking, they have not even started anything in their states. We have a man who is doing what we dream about elected officials doing – being efficient and working quickly! Let’s heartily support that and work hard this week to help make this happen!
You are in this fight, and YOU as leaders are well equipped, and up for this!
Let’s Make WISCONSIN GREAT AGAIN!
WE Can do this!
Chairman Laurie Forcier, RPW CCO

Paul Ryan: Amiable Style & Heavy in Content
From Marquette University Law School Blog
He wore a sweater and showed off the heavy boots he was wearing because, in the aftermath of the snow storm, this wasn’t “a wingtips day.”
He paused in mid conversation to plop a mint his mouth because “if I’m ever in the neighborhood, I always go to Real Chili.”
He poked fun at himself for being nervous when the cameras went on for his nationally-televised response to President Barack Obama’s State of the Union speech last week.
He shrugged off talk of his political future. “When I look in the mirror, I see a broken nose and a widow’s peak. I don’t see a future president.”
