"Tort reform" rammed down our throats

Remember that notorious expression?
The bill is likely to become law before any practice sections have an opportunity to finish studying the bill and provide feedback on those provisions to the Legislature.
Not even the State Bar of Wisconsin knows what's in Walker's bill.

What does that tell you?
Our campaign efforts will include building an organization that will return Justice Prosser to the bench, protecting the conservative judicial majority and acting as a common sense compliment [sic] to both the new [Republican] administration and legislature. — David Prosser for Supreme Court
Earlier: Prosser will "complement" GOP political branches

Let's try not to be too cynical out there.

Now, that can't be right -- especially the latter clause. That sounds like a rule against partisan campaigning being broken, there. (Yes, yes -- I know that makes me basically a combination of Hitler, Pol Pot, and Roger Clemens in the evilness of my opposition to teh Free Speach...)
