Below is an email from the Fort Atkinson School District inquiring if the district should take a grant for “FREE” breakfast and lunch during summer school.  Following is a response from a concerned taxpayer in the Fort Atkinson School District.  I have a call in to the “Nutrition Director” to see where exactly the grant is coming from. Update: The “Nutrition Director” told me the grant is called: The Simplified Summer Food Service Program for Children .  Here is the link: http://www.dpi.state.wi.us/fns/summerchoices.html I don’t think anyone should be getting “free” lunch.  Nothing is “FREE” and there are always strings attached.  Many of those taking advantage of the free/reduced lunch services are illegal immigrants and/or their children.  Is it any wonder that we have an illegal immigration problem when more and more services like these are offered? This goes to the premise of free/reduced lunch in the first place.  Are people just taking advantage of the system because it is there?  I once heard a person comment on this type of behavior saying, “When you put out the ice cream, the ants will come.”  The more “freebies” a community offers, the more people move there to take advantage of the “freebies”….

We will be having several seminars / presentations that will be repeated throughout the day.  The seminars / presentations will include showings of The Cartel, a seminar on The 2nd Amendment, Globalism and the NWO, and Sustainable Development/Agenda 21, and on our two key issues.  We will also have educational materials available for you to take and distribute.

Here is a letter sent from Rep. Steve Nass to AG VanHollen regarding Assistant AG Thomas C. Bellavia.  Representative Nass is questioning whether Assistant AG Bellavia can be trusted to represent the interests of the legislature considering his expressed personal opposition to the Budget Repair Bill.

Here is the link: Republicans find 14,000 new votes, take lead in Wisconsin Supreme Court race While this is definitely good for the rule of law in Wisconsin, we must not forget that voter reform still needs to be passed ASAP.  

Patriots… We have a location for our next meeting this Friday April 8th.  The meeting will be held at 6pm in one of the conference rooms at Johnson Creek Plaza Hotel located at 725 Paradise Lane, Johnson Creek WI 53038.  The phone number there is 699-2800.  The hotel is off HWY Y, just north of Johnson Creek.  It can be seen on the north side of I-94 when taking the interstate. At this meeting, we will discuss current news and events.  We will also plan for future events.  Back by popular demand , we will be having another seminar on emergency preparedness. This will be our only meeting this month because of the Easter Holiday.  I anticipate that we will be back in the Jefferson/Fort Atkinson area next month in a place that will suit our needs. Thank you in advance!  Hope to see you all there!

The Westboro Baptist Church also has the 1st Amendment right to express themselves at military funerals no matter how shameful and disgusting it is.  Using Joanne Kloppenburg’s logic, apparently she would not denounce an attack ad by them either “because they are a third party group” and “have a 1st Amendment right.”
