Wisconsin Justice and Wanksta of the Year Nominee- Moe Lane

Hand wringing a woman's neck?

TPM:

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley is now publicly accusing her fellow justice, David Prosser, of putting her in a "chokehold" in her chambers in the presence of other justices during heated discussions over the controversial state law that limited the collective bargaining rights of state workers.

Bradley's accusation came after a local news report yesterday first revealed details of the incident, which allegedly happened two weeks ago. Neither Bradley, a liberal jurist, nor Prosser, a conservative, would comment for the original story. Prosser has also now issued a statement denying the allegation.

There's a lot of hazy information out there, but leave it to RedState to keep it classy.

The award for "blame the victim" goes to...MOE LANE!!

Moe "Lady's First" Lane:

It was first reported that Prosser put Bradley in a choke-hold – whereupon most of the Online Left dropped their pants and started typing blissfully angry screeds about how the crime of one Supreme Court Justice attacking another Supreme Court Justice could only be made right with an immediate resignation – only to have it later come out that other reports had it that Bradley had actually charged Prosser with fists raised, and that Prosser was merely defending himself against a larger and younger opponent. Complicating all of this is the minor detail that no charges were apparently filed*, and Bradley has only now come out with a rather belated claim accusing Prosser of the choking, while not explaining why she is not pursuing a criminal case. Which is very possibly due to the fact that there’s at least one witness apparently who told Bradley at the time that no, she had not been choked.

Note, by the way, that all of the people involved – participants and witnesses – are Wisconsin Supreme Court Justices. You’re going to see some fascinating dissents from these people for the next few years.


Congrats on being the douchenugget who fails miserably trying to justify a man putting his hands around a woman's neck! You see, Bradley is "larger", so she had it coming. Get it, you don't get it? Well it's because it's an unfair fight; it's the frail, misogynistic and abusive old man versus the larger, younger, Leftist liberal! Judge Battle Royale! Ohhh and Moe had to add how "fascinating dissents" will play out for years to come! Aside from attempting to downplay the serious allegation of a justice with a history of anger issues attacking a fellow justice, we get WWE like justice throw downs in Wisconsin. WHAT AN IDEA MOE! FASCINATING! Can't wait for the ladder match where justices climb to decide who gets the pain; teachers or teachers AND STUDENTS?!

There you have it, Wanksta of the Year nominee, Moe Lane, folks.

Just to put the cherry on stop, Moe wants to remind you; if you threaten a woman and attack her...well she had it coming...or something...also too, Lefties are always wrong:

In this scenario, both sides have valid reasons for keeping their mouths shut: the Left doesn’t want to lose one of its judges (which, by the way, groups ThinkProgress and Talking Points Memo will absolutely have to call for, if it turns out that Bradley attacked first), and the Right doesn’t want to have to explain why one of their judges didn’t just sit there and let himself get hit by a woman (yes, in fact, that would be an issue).

Is it me or does Moe think choking a woman is All-American? In the dark and twisted fantasy of Moe's paramecium brain, he can, to apply his own words, use "uncorroborated anonymous reports to vicariously convict" Bradley of attacking first and call foul for Lefties being huffy and puffy if a man CHOKES A WOMAN! (Moe's fantasy goes like this, Bradley flailed and judge Prosser defended himself boldly by putting his hands around Bradley's neck. Self-defense for bargaining rights!) Real freedom, real equality you see involves a man's ability to choke a liberal "large" female justice *hackspit Uhmerika! IT'S HOW THE FOUNDING FATHERS WOULD HAVE WANTED IT! At least Moe admits Prosser is one of the Right's judges. Nice standards you got there, Moe. Wanksta.

Hooray! New York Passes Marriage Equality Bill

A little more sense in our nonsensical world:

The New York state Senate has approved the marriage equality bill by a vote of 33-29.

An amendment to the bill, which carved out exemptions for religious groups, passed by a vote of 36-26.

The New York Assembly had passed the amendment earlier Friday evening by a vote of 82-47. There was a lot of suspense leading up to the vote in the Senate, as only 31 lawmakers of the necessary 32 officially announced ahead of the vote that they would support the bill if it was taken up.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) had been negotiating with legislators all week over the language of the bill, even though the legislative session was supposed to have ended Monday. The negotiations centered on a number of Republicans who were pushing for amendments that carved out more specific exemptions for religious groups. Friday afternoon an agreement was reached on the final language.


The Gaypocalypse's second stage is now in effect! Over a thousand opposite marriages failed last night after the announcement of the bill's passing. New York is only the beginning of the end. STORM HAS BEEN BROUGHTIN!

If you read the Right's response it sounds similar to other civil rights battles they lost, they can't admit it to themselves...Or they sound down right off their rocker. Poor Gwenny Weynolds wants teh gays to have assault rifles and lower taxes...or something. Somebody was having a Kevin Bacon marathon last night and had Tremors up his thigh. Oh Gwenn we all know your assault rifle is barely a pea shooter.

Get Your Dunkin Friday - Trans-Atlantic Throwdown Episode 8


And we're back! After a two-month hiatus due to a cross-country move by Frank and various scheduling conflicts -- damn you, time zones!!! -- we bring you more rage-tastic banter on drinks and tunes. No politics this week as both Frank and Paddy are burned out on the non-movement and broken systems in which they live. Drinks and music are helping ease the pain! Frank discusses Death's Door distillery and the art of sipping -- yes, sipping -- a pint into which you've just dropped a shot of liquor or coffee. No high-fives, no pounding the Jaegerbombs. Paddy talks beer tourism in London and discovers an excellent IPA from Buxton called Axe Edge and then moves on to another one of Cooley Distillery's revival whiskeys, Connemara Peated Single Malt -- smokey! Moving right along to music, the dudes discuss new tunes from Panda Bear, August Burns Red, Touché Amoré and Bon Iver. All this and more in episode 8 of the Trans-Atlantic (and Continental) Throwdown!

Welcome to the Real World Sean Duffy

Where you can't doctor video to cover your own asshattery:

Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI) is in hot water again thanks to YouTube.

A few months after a county Republican Party in Wisconsin attempted to scrub the Internet of Duffy's contention that he struggles to pay bills on his $174,000 per year taxpayer-funded salary, his staff pulled down another YouTube clip of Duffy after a local station in Eau Claire, Wisc., said Duffy's staff "doctored" it.

A Duffy spokesperson told TPM the video has been removed at the request of the station and says no substantial changes were made.


Guess the congressman was under the impression that his reality show math wouldn't be treated to real world standards. You know the real world where the Tax Cut Fairy hasn't bopped the economy on its head. The one where you can't go back to the tiny room to tell your side of the story of how you and your party continually keep sleeping with corporations and the top 2% (dang they looked hot in the club last night). It's amazing $1740,000 can't buy a fake show congressman a clue.

Well, it's our third week here and we're loving it. Yes, we miss family, luckily there's Skype and of course thus far the biggest adjustment has been getting used to the people. LA is no Chicago. Not as friendly especially in the area of customer service, however I don't think either of us will be able to dramatically shift this glaring LA flaw. For those of you who have never been, they just don't give a fu....gg...On Saturday we got a unique experience, we attended a movie showing in a cemetery. A friend of my lady's and her bf ask us if we'd like to go and of course we jumped at the creepy opportunity. The event run by Cinespia was held at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery and proceeds were donated to help Japanese Disaster Relief. It was quite an interesting experience, BYOB, blankets, lots of weed (by others) and a classic movie, in this case it was Treasure of the Sierra Madre starring Humphrey Bogart. It was unlike anything I had experience before, it was eery, fun and something I can say I'd happily do again.

Newt My Problem

It seems the Newt's presidential bid is imploding from within. Ole Newt didn't want to do the actual work to be president. How presidential!

Greg Sargent is shrill:

All these lemmings, clearly, were unable to grasp that his candidacy was something historic; something profoundly transformative; even something Messianic. Imprisoned by their inability to comprehend that the force of Newt’s ideas alone would be enough to propel his candidacy, they walked.

Of course, you really can’t fault Newt for seeing things this way. Commentators and Republicans have been telling him that he’s one of the GOP’s intellectual deities for at least a decade now. Why wouldn’t he believe them?

In all seriousness, it has been plainly obvious from the start that Newt never had any intention of running a real presidential campaign, and that the whole thing was an exercise in Messianism. Why is anyone even surprised by any of this?


Somehow Newt will most likely gain more credibility amongst the Village, he always does...
