From the Charity Begins at Home Department, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel's Stacy Forster reports that Burnett County Judge Michael Gableman, in previewing his latest teevee ad, vows to "cut through [the] slimy attacks and set the record straight."
Presumably this means Gableman's new advertisement will vacate and correct the number of false innuendoes and misrepresentations in his previous offering, the one that inspired Dodge County District Attorney Steven G. Bauer to publicly and demonstratively withdraw his support for Gableman.
Maybe Gableman can also explain in greater detail what the problem was when Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Louis Butler voted to 'prohibit prosecutors from using a tool' of law enforcement when the said tool was so laughably unconstitutional to begin with, Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson was moved to borrow from the "Soup Nazi" episode of Seinfeld.
(It's a good thing Gableman isn't running against C.J. Abrahamson, or else he'd accuse her of "citing" Spike Feresten.)
A bit later in the day, Ms. Forster related the following priceless non-observation by Gableman. Concerning Justice Butler's experience as a defense attorney 20+ years ago (before Gableman had even started law school), Gableman "declined to explain why voters should view that as a reason not to vote for Butler in the April 1 election."
Hey, you can't really expect him to answer that one, can you? Because Butler's previous career (did I mention that was before Gableman had even started law school?) is only the current front and centerpiece of the Gableman campaign. Apparently Mike Gableman is a man of few words. Rather, he is a man of many disturbing and deliberately misleading images. But even those are just a bit of spin!

ReplyDeletePresumably, you typed this with tongue firmly implanted in cheek.
Yes, and also before I realized I'd used "offering" twice in the same sentence.
ReplyDeleteBut did you notice the newest ad came right out and asserted the Butler is unqualified because he was a criminal defense attorney? I 'bout fell out of my chair when I heard that. So much for just implying that Butler loves criminals.
ReplyDeleteButler needs to hammer Gableman on experience. Gableman has exactly no appellate experience of any kind. Gableman hasn't even been an attorney as long as Butler has been a judge. These are the lines Butler should repeat over and over.
