The Slippery Bob Welch

I never liked this guy.

First, the Circus Parade is stupid and it sucks.

Second, not enough people want to support it, so it's going away.

Third, the state has no money for a once-a-year, shitty-ass event.

Fourth, Bob Welch voted AGAINST allowing Milwaukee and 5 other communities to TAX THEMSELVES in order to pay for Miller Park. No one in his district would have been taxed, he was merely voting to allow or not allow the 6 counties to tax themselves, something that had a lot of support in those counties (except for Racine). He voted against it because he didn't support the use of tax dollars for the stadium.

But, now that HIS community wants something, he's somehow changed his mind on the issue.

I hope someone jumps in and stops him from spending new money on this lame event.

The stadium was worth building, despite the recent actions by the Seligs.

The circus parade is not worth saving with private money, much less public money.

Bottom line: Bob Welch is a two-faced ass.
