Isn’t it ironic that Canadian Alanis Morissette sings the United States National Anthem to open the NBA Finals the year that no National Hockey League games were played? Right now I’m too tired for proper outrage at each and every single Wisconsin politician and my methamphetamine dealer just quit to take a $7.85/hr job doing short order cooking. Apparently Woodman’s still carries the ingredients to make killer beef tips on the grill.
Isn’t it ironic that Governor Jim Doyle is outraged now that he supports what he used to oppose. I would be tempted to call this a “flip flop” but in my cool logical methamphetamine free brain, I understand the Governor is engaged in nuanced policy alternatives sensitive to the changing needs of his constituents.
Governor Doyle June 2005: "I am deeply disappointed that the Joint Finance Committee today voted down a bipartisan recommendation for construction of a Hmong Cultural Center. … "I urge the Legislature to reverse course and provide the deserved and necessary funding for the Hmong Cultural Center."Mayor Dave Cieslewicz feeling the need to toss in his 2 cents worth goes on record saying: "I am very disappointed that the Joint Committee on Finance failed to support building a Hmong Cultural Center in Madison.” Not only will there be no State cash to build more density into Capital City but all those Hmong are potentially qualified condo loan applicants, even those who are not U.S. Citizens.
Governor Doyle July 2003: “The Legislature's budget committee voted Tuesday to spend $3 million to help build a Hmong cultural center in Milwaukee - a project Gov. Jim Doyle vetoed because it was part of a pork-barrel deal that got a now-recalled senator to vote for the state budget.”
