Anon Jim said...: As a conservative libertarian who is not a Republican, totally agree with you Jim.; August 20, 2009 at 1:57 PM
enoughalready said...: Yes, that is sad. Only now that Doyle says he's not seeking a third term, Thompson emerges to lament that he wont be able to run against Doyle.; August 21, 2009 at 3:46 PM
Anon Jim said...: Btw - what was even sadder was Doyle's lame reason for not running for a 3rd term.

We expect him to lie to us, he's done it his entire career as a public official after all, but that was embarrassing and pathetic even by his low standards.; August 21, 2009 at 7:35 PM
James Rowen said...: To Anon Jim; You know, I have known Doyle for decades, and remember his first campaign for Dane County DA. That's a pretty harsh accusation you have leveled - - "his entire career."

I know that people these days say that everything they don't like from a public official is a "lie."

But your allegation is preposterous, and I think you know it.

So who's low standards are embarrassing and pathetic now?; August 21, 2009 at 8:07 PM
Anon Jim said...: My allegation might be exaggerated, but hardly preposterous.

It is completely possible that Jim Doyle has been a liar "his entire career".

Btw - I really don't care what his reasons are for not running for a 3rd term were. Am just glad he is going to give up the throne.

But suddenly getting religion for term limits simply isn't the reason.; August 24, 2009 at 10:42 AM
