garyprimer, the Republicans today are more liberal then the Republicans of yore. King, jr was a known GOP voter because he didn't believe in the class and race warfare the liberals use today. According to his niece, he would be ashamed the Black community have allowed themselves to be "chained" by the liberal slave owners.
TEA party only wants a fincially responsible government. You have to balance your books in your household, why wouldn't you expect the same from your government?

WI = Wisconsin and not WIS.

you also seem to be having a bad day....tomorrow things will be back to normal.

That all you are trying to do is belittle someone else with your direct words of hate

filth

you're a bully and a racist fordfan

bigot

The "filth" as you call it was from wislady (if that is what you want to call it - your words, not mine) and of course you agree with everything she says. She was the one who brought race into it. Being subtle when pointing these things out to people with no empathy doesn’t seem to work all that well so I was a little less subtle this time – and it hurts doesn’t it? Imagine a lifetime of this! There is no need to point out race, color of hair, height, weight or anything else – especially when being critical of, or belittling the person.

Panama Red. Please tell me what is better?
The unemployment rate? no
The gas prices? no
The poverty level is less? no
Less people on welfare? no
National debt smaller? no
Big Healthcare issue? no- less people getting care
lower taxes? no
House value better than in 2008? no
What? tell me, what is better?

"Badgerlvr, we have had it for 4 years, how much more of a chance do we need?"

How right you are Eagle1. We are already better off after 4 years of Obama than we were after 8 years of Bush. It can ONLY get better.

fordfan, perhaps there were several women speaking. Using the color of her hair may not have helped. What you are attempting to do is filth.

How dare you.

•Keep it clean. Comments that are obscene, vulgar or sexually oriented will be removed. Creative spelling of such terms or implied use of such language is banned, also.

•Be nice. No racism, sexism or any other sort of -ism that degrades another person.

A pendering he will go,

A pandering he will go,

Hi ho the derry-o a pandering Scottie will go.

Requesting my posts be removed is getting to be a habit with you, isn’t it Bowlgal. So you approve of wislady stating “Also, the black female who spoke at the event, referred to Obama as the 45th president.“ is OK but if I refer wislady as white that is disgusting? I guess you figure “white” is the default? Why not refer to her as the “female”? This is what I have come to expect from Republican’s and if the paper removes my posts, it pretty much states what they think also. Think about it…….

wislady
Do you think that only republican fought for the North in the civil war?

Gazette, please remove fordfan's intolerable racist comments I've flagged for you.

The white wislady, Obama took the official oath of office yesterday. Today was ceremonial only. Maybe if this is of no honor to President Obama, you can tell me why 800K people showed up to cheer him on (record largest 2nd inauguration coming on the heals of the 1st largest inauguration four years ago)? Why did they have the very cordial introductions of the president, the 21 gun salute to the president, the toasts in the capitol hall at the luncheon, the military passing in review, the motorcade from the capitol to the white house with the street lined with waving and cheering people, the reviewing stand built for the president so he could watch the parade in whose honor again?

Regarding your ancestry…I am very happy that your mother came to this country as an immigrant. I assume the “black lady” (that didn’t do something to your satisfaction) that you referred to in another post was born in this country but perhaps her parents were immigrants…perhaps she is a descendent of ancestors that came here perhaps at the time our nation was born. What does that have to do with anything? If you wish to identify a person by the color of their skin, you shouldn’t mind others doing the same to you, right?

Inauguration day fordfan, is a celebration of American exceptionalism. How we shift the balance of power peacefully, or in this case continue one more term with President Obama.

This is an inauguration celebration, not Obama day.

fordfan, your insulting comments to wislady go beyond contemptible.
MLK was a registered Republican and his famous words of not judging on color but on content have fallen on ignorant ears in your case.
I've asked the Gazette to remove your racist posts.

fordfan

I believe not too long ago, I commented on a blog and stated that my mother was an immigrant. She became a Naturalized Citizen. Does that make me a "white woman"?

It is Inauguration Day, not Obama Day.

"Since 1901, the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies has been responsible for the planning and execution of the swearing-in ceremonies and the luncheon for the Inauguration of the President of the United States at the U.S. Capitol."

"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" -

Yes, and lack information provided by our school system is to blame for the "ignorance" of many in society.

Eagle1: Obama's HOPE for the second term is probably one that would include the WISH that Conservatives would at least attempt compromise instead of constant haranguing. Can you actually say that there has been ANY attempt to work with Obama during his first term? From the get-go, all we've heard is the attempt to make him a "one term President." Do you not understand that the general public is tired of Republican rhetoric? Some place down the road Republicans may gain control of the Executive Branch. Will you be happy if the same attitude prevails with Democrats? I highly doubt it.

White lady wislady, So you do not consider the inauguration to be in any way an honor to President Obama?

WI LADY - - - > After reading your most recent(at 9:27am)ludicrous misinterpretation of information & other ramblings - - Martin Luther King Jr. would want you to ponder his quote - - "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" - -

And WPT for the MLK event at the Capitol

Thank goodness for Twitter and Charter on Demand.

Obama was being sworn in, not honored.
MLK was the person being "honored" today.

wislady the white lady can't even watch Fox News without seeing the Obamas being honored. Gotta be a tough one for her.

It seems that the white lady wislady is having a bad day. Also of note, Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin wanted the president to grovel to Republican's in his speach today to be bipartisan.

Badgerlvr, we have had it for 4 years, how much more of a chance do we need?

The only HOPE that occurs for our nation, is that the 30 Republican governors hold to their conservative values.

Wisconsin, Walker, and the republican majority...now that is real HOPE.

Comments such as yours, show that democrats have no plans to work together. The Hope and Change of 4 years ago, rings hollow.

Just as disrespectful, people at the Obama event today booing Ryan as he came to the event.

Such tolerance!

wislady: The present administration offers HOPE for our nation, not the hopelessness of your rhetoric. Why not try and give it a chance?

gary I agree, they are not what they use to be, they use to actually be for smaller government and fiscal conservatism, however now they are just Democrat Lite. We are on the verge of one party rule by action and principle, just because they have different letters behind their names doesn't mean they are different. The Tea Party while I am not a fan of them as an organization, started out from a grassroots birth and then was hijacked by GOP politicians like Palin and Bachmann. But the original principles were very different than what the GOP offers, I just wish people within that movement would wake up and realize they have been railroaded and support the one party that does match their principles and goals, it doesn't have a donkey or elephant for a mascot.

Gee, that's a shame.

Obama starts his second coming, with the lowest approval ratings since WWII, 49%. Interesting also, the invocation given by the non lay person, left out "Under God" in quoting the Pledge of Allegiance.

"Politics of division & class warfare, the centerpiece of Obama’s rhetoric, are the antithesis of MLK’s dream."

The Heritage Foundation

"got y'all in chains"

Shameful, that the VP used those words.

Republicans ain't what they used to be.
If present day Republicans want to take credit for the actions of Republicans of yore,
they would be better served to start emulating them.
The Tea Party has got y'all in chains!

Shame on the WH and the potus for lying to Americans.

We are represented by our member of Congress, Paul Ryan. As Governor of Wisconsin, Walker has duties of the office also. One of them includes the commemoration of MLK. He also was at a similar event in Milwaukee this morning.

Yes, MLK was the subject of wiretapping....set up by the democrats.

Wislady Shame on you for degrading the people for knowing the truth....

The republicans including this Governor Should be at the Presidents Swearing in ceremony This is the Person the majority of the people chose for president. This really shows what the GOP and he likes of Walker think about the Majority of the People's opinions. Many Republicans are not attending and this is an act of TREASON and it shows who is dividing this COUNTRY. God Bless The President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and SHAME on the TEA party Republicans that act like this. Walker is a DISGRACE to all he pretends to represent.

Oh, this should be fun. Last year Walker fidgeted, stared at the ceiling, and generally looked like he wanted to be anywhere else in the whole world.
.
Ah, yes, Human Events. The magazine that once published articles like "JFK and RFK were right to wiretap Martin Luther King" and "The Radical Record of Martin Luther King" (by Jesse Helms, no less). Whitewashing history is indeed possible when you're the publisher. wislady, you're a laugh riot.

Unfortunately, our school systems chose to leave out much of history. They should teach all of it, instead of editing it to suit their own political beliefs.

"In March of 1968, while referring to Dr. King’s leaving Memphis, Tenn., after riots broke out where a teenager was killed, Democrat Sen. Robert Byrd (W.Va.), a former member of the Ku Klux Klan, called Dr. King a “trouble-maker” who starts trouble, but runs like a coward after trouble is ignited. A few weeks later, Dr. King returned to Memphis and was assassinated on April 4, 1968

"Given the circumstances of that era, it is understandable why Dr. King was a Republican. It was the Republicans who fought to free blacks from slavery and amended the Constitution to grant blacks freedom (13th Amendment), citizenship (14th Amendment) and the right to vote (15th Amendment). Republicans passed the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867 that was designed to establish a new government system in the Democrat-controlled South, one that was fair to blacks. Republicans also started the NAACP and affirmative action with Republican President Richard Nixon’s 1969 Philadelphia Plan (crafted by black Republican Art Fletcher) that set the nation’s fist goals and timetables. Although affirmative action now has been turned by the Democrats into an unfair quota system, affirmative action was begun by Nixon to counter the harm caused to blacks when Democrat President Woodrow Wilson in 1912 kicked all of the blacks out of federal government jobs."

Fortunately, not all history can be edited as easily as Wiki.

Today is the commemoration of MLK, not Obama. As Walker reads the proclamation in the Capitol in Madison, I hope people chose to honor MLK. This is not about Walker, although some will chose to make it so.

It should be pointed out that MLK was in Memphis to help with a sanitation worker walkout at the time of his assassination.

Preemptive shaming.

It will be interesting to see if the same disrespectful people shout and boo during the proclamation of the event, given by Walker.

SHAME on them, if they do.

The bagpipers, Walker will fit right in.
