At Least We Know, Obey Got an A in Recess

Last week, Nick Reid put out this press release. It calls on Dave Obey to make his schedule public. The Wisconsin Democrats made a big to do about Mark Green not making his schedule public. We think if it's good for the goose . . .

Anyway, and we're only guessing here, we're guessing that Obey doesn't make his schedule public because he has virtually no public schedule. He showed up in Park Falls to take credit for something someone else did. Some Democrats up in Ashland gave him an award for being a Democrat - a milestone acheivement that Obey right now probably has his media guys in DC scrambling to put into a fluffy TV ad.

Other than that, we've read he campaigned in Iowa and Green Bay, neither of which is in the 7th District in case we have readers from Pluto (or Washington, DC).

Maybe we're just mad because at least when Dave's in DC he takes a couple dumb votes a day we can choose from or says something completely beneath a Congressman on the House floor to poke fun at. When it's recess time, Obey takes that literally. He recesses. So Dave, at least for giving us something to post about, come out, come out wherever you are.

If you are in Superior, WI and would like campaign material for any of the Republican candidates you should go to 1601 Tower Avenue, noon to 4 p.m., Mondays through Friday.

I wish to thank Nick Reid for letting us use his headquarters to distribute the materials for all of the Republicans running for office in our area. You can obtain materials for Mark Green, JB Van Hollen, Paul Bucher, Jeff Tyberg, Shirley Riedmann, Gerald Lorge, and of course Nick Reid at the Reid for Congress HQ in Superior.

The Douglas County Republican party is having a Picnic for the Party on Saturday, September 16th from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Billings Park Pavilion. This is not a fund raiser though a good will donation is requested to cover the cost of hot dogs, chips, pop, etc.

The theme of the event, scheduled for the first Saturday AFTER the primary, is Party Unity and Victory in November.

Republican office holders such as Senator Zien and Assemblyman Woods have been invited. Shirley Riedmann (running against Bob Joke) and Nick Reid will be attending but all the candidates have been invited (waiting on RSVP for the rest).

For anyone looking for volunteer opportunities, we need your help in Jim Falls (near Chippewa Falls) on September 3rd at noon. We're marching in the Sturgeon Festival Parade and want to make a great impression for Nick Reid.

If you're available, please call the Chippewa County Republican Party HQs at 715.723.1677 or email me at tracy.kendrick@gmail.com.

Also mark your calendars for this coming Monday in Wausau as Nick will be appearing on ABC's Nightline to talk about earmarks. Details are on the gop-spot blog.

Let's get Obey out!

What is that supposed to mean. Is it some sort of secret? Are they Republican Masons?

How can you have a growing organization that has no officers, meetings, budget, etc. Something is being planned.
