It appears from reports today that Kevin Hermening has dropped out of his campaign run. We found this link on WSAU, even though there are rumors swirling that this decision was supposed to wait until 7 pm for some reason. Embargoed, or not, 550 AM broke it, and we applaud them.
This is the quote from that story…”I have concluded that there is nothing that I alone could do in Madison to change the attitude and culture should I be successful… I can have a much more profound impact on my community by moving forward in the non-elected arena of public service.”
We felt it significant to post the link to the WSAU story. Clearly this will create some reaction, and it will free up supporters to move over to Dr. Pam Galloway in her attempt to take the seat from Senate Majority Leader Russ Decker.
Congrats to WSAU for breaking this news first. Thoughts?

We received this today, about Mayor Tipples press conference. Thoughts?
WAUSAU (WAOW) – Mayor Jim Tipple announced the closure of the Wausau Area Access Channel, Monday.
The announcement came in Mayor Tipple’s morning press conference.
Both the Public and Education & Government access channels (Cable Channel 98/980 and 96/981) will stop broadcasting after 2009.
According to a news release from the Mayor’s Office, the cost of maintaining the channels would be $90,000. According to Mayor Tipple, this may solve the city’s budget shortfall.
The Wausau Access Coordinator position will be eliminated and the Wausau Area Access Channel Office in City Hall will close. Mayor Tipple says tough economic times required “tough decisions.”
The Wausau Area Public Access Channels are most commonly used to broadcast community events including: forums, meetings, sporting events, graduations.

This comes to us directly from the Office of Mayor Tipple
“Wednesday, November 18, 2009 – Today temporary layoff notices were issued to ten (10) employees. This was necessary in order to immediately reduce our expenses before year end. This layoff is indefinite.
The City of Wausau is implementing two (2) non-voluntary temporary layoff days (furloughs) for 2009. The furloughs apply to all full time and permanent part time employees of AFSCME Local 1287 and 1287CH. The leave days are as follows:
1287 Full and Permanent Part Time Employees:
Wednesday, November 25, 2009
1287CH Full and Permanent Part Time Employees:
Wednesday, November 25, 2009
Wednesday, December 23, 2009
The Crossing Guards will be excluded from the December 23, 2009 lay off day (furlough) as school will be in session that day. City Hall and Customer Service Counters of the Police Department, Community Development Authority and Public Works will be closed on the above days. These layoffs were selected in an attempt to minimize disruption of city operations and services to constituents.”

This a letter that I sent to various newspapers around the state. I think that it is an important enough issue that it be posted on Citizen Wausau as well.
Yesterday I wrote very angry letters to Wisconsin Legislators, especially my own, Russ Decker and Donna Seidel, and including Jerry Petrowski and a slew of others.
I investigated further and discovered that my anger and outrage had only scratched the surface. I was originally upset because they snuck a utility surcharge into the budget and used the money to pay district attorneys.
What first made me angry was my belief that the money should have gone to the woefully underfunded State Public Defender, especially those private attorneys taking assigned counsel cases (namely me).
On further investigation I discovered that the utility surcharge was
originally inserted to fund Wisconsin Works, one of the remnants of our State Assistance to the poor. At the last moment the Senate inserted the language directing all of that money to already employed and salaried attorneys for the state. This amounts to literally taking bread out of the mouths of the destitute to fatten the wallets of state attorneys. I am ashamed of myself for ever wanting any of that money. I see it now for what it is — blood money.
We should all be ashamed of ourselves for allowing this to happen.
Indigent criminal defense is constitutionally mandated, and it should be fully funded, but not by diverting money originally raised to provide other essential services for the poor.
Here is the text of the law:
30. PUBLIC BENEFIT FEES FOR WISCONSIN WORKS
Joint Finance: Require the Department of Administration to ensure that electric utilities charge customers an additional $9,139,700 annually for deposit into the public benefits fund for maintenance of effort in the Wisconsin Works program. Require DOA to include in its calculation of low-income assistance fees the collection of this additional amount. Specify that these additional fees would not be subject to the current caps, which specify that a customer may not be assessed more than the lesser of 3% or $750 per monthly bill.
Specify that this fee applies only for the 2009-11 biennium.
Senate/Legislature: Specify that this additional fee would be used to support salaries and fringe benefits for district attorney offices rather than the Wisconsin Works program.
[Act 28 Sections: 64m, 542p, 542s, 9101(1f), 9113(6x) and 9413(2x)]

This case has been lingering about the City of Wausau for some time. It appears that a judgement was handed down. For the complete judgment see the link below.
Van De Yacht Decision.10.13.09
October 14, 2009, Wausau, WI – Judge Barbara Crabb of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin has granted a motion for summary judgment in the matter of Christine Van De Yacht vs. the City of Wausau and James Tipple, William Nagle, Michael Morrissey and Ann Werth in their individual capacities. This closes the case, unless it is appealed by Van De Yacht.

I want to preface this by saying the following…I know Paul Klocko. I have known him for at least 8 years. For a while there he and I were friends, but we are not now. That seems like disclaimer enough.
I do not know if you have been following the news lately, but our little town, and our town daily newspaper made the national news recently. It appears that the staff of the WDH released the name of one of his forum commenters to a local official, Dean Zuleger of Weston.
The commenter, screen name ‘juanmoore’, real name Paul Klocko, attacked Dean Zuleger personally and professionally when Zuleger won the Person of the Year award. The attacks were made in regards to his weight, his eating, and several other things. Calling Dean fat, and Little Hitler. Good stuff. Stuff you tend to only say if you are anonymous. Keyboard bravery I call it.
Dean, as is his right, asked the Daily Herald for the name of the poster. I say it is his right, because I tend to think it is our right to ask for anything we want. I recently asked Andy for his bike, and like a grown up, Andy said no. I once asked the bank teller for a million bucks, since I was there, and she said no. We laughed.
In this case Dean asked, and WDH said yes. Hence, the drama.
Then some fallout comes from Zuleger writing Klocko a letter inviting him to come into the office and talk about whatever issues he might have. The letter was cleared by the City Attorney, so the language was pretty safe. I know this because the letter is all over the internet. You know, from when the man upset about his anonymity not being protected gave preemptive interviews.
Klocko never went in to speak about any grievance he might have with the Village Administrator, from the Village that he lives in.
So what do we know…
- Klocko made anonymous attacks. He has admitted to that, in several news stories.
- Zuleger asked the WDH for the name of juanmoore.
- Mark Baldwin gave Zuleger the name. That has been documented.
- Zuleger wrote a letter. He admitted that. Klocko gave the letter to a website. The anonymous guy gave the letter to be put up on the internet.
- Klocko got the letter and felt intimidated. He said that in several interviews. Again, anonymous guy, giving interviews.
- Klocko states in interviews that his reaction was emotional and probably a mistake, and his anger at his rough patch was misdirected at Dean. In case you forgot, man upset about anonymity, giving interviews.
- Klocko sells popcorn.
- Mike Beck and the WDH apologized to Klocko. Klocko confirmed that in news stories. Anonymous guy giving interviews.
- The WDH clarifies their policy.
- Klocko has not gone into handle any grievance with Zuleger, as of this writing.
- Klocko claims to contact the state Attorney General and an attorney. Not sure why since everyone has admitted what they did.
- Klocko said he just wants to get to the bottom of this, and he does not want a dime.
Did we just not get to the bottom of this? What more is he looking to do, other than continue to drag Dean through the mud?
Let me see if I can get my mind around this…a man who is upset that his anonymity was not protected, is now appearing as an attacker in the Huffington Post, and has given interviews to the local papers, as well as AP (the worldwide news agency) reporters, about attacks that were personal, reactionary, and misdirected anger. So, upset that he is not anonymous, but somehow wants recognition? Now, how does that balance out?
How is it that Klocko admits that his attacks came from a mistaken place — a place of anger that came from him having a rough time, and resentment about Zuleger getting an award-yet the reaction from the one he attacked was somehow inappropriate? When he admitted his initial action was inappropriate.
Klocko, who says he wants NOTHING from this, has gotten an apology from the WDH, has appeared in the Huffington post as well as blogs across the world, is continuing to contact lawyers and the State Attorney General. To what end? Everyone has admitted everything that they have done, Klocko attacked, Dean asked, Baldwin said yes, Dean wrote a letter, Klocko got a letter, the WDH apologized. What more is there? What secret information can possibly be out there? All the players in this story have become shockingly transparent. What is Klocko thinking happened? What is his motivation if not to further attack Zuleger? What comes from further legal action to things already admitted?
Then we get into the fact that this is like an attacker suing a victim of the attack. Klocko attacked Dean in the WDH online site. And he said it was a mistake, he said so in the AP piece. Well, if it was a mistake, then apologize and move on. The only one keeping this a story, well, is Klocko.
What sort of arrogance is it when you attack someone personally, and then further drag them through a never ending wave of drama involving more lawyers?
Paul, nothing seems to be in dispute here. It seems like you got what you wanted. Unless of course you want something else.

As most of us may have anticipated, the Mayoral veto on restructuring committee appointment procedures set the stage for a contentious City Council meeting here in Wausau last night. As a regular attender of said meetings, this was a night of firsts. This was the first time that I have ever seen the room full (perhaps people were expecting a dog fight of sorts). It was also the first time I have ever seen anyone register for comments in advance. And, it was the first time I have ever seen a Point of Order come from the crowd.
Along with these firsts for me, it was also the first time Citizen Wausau attempted to live twitter anything of this sort. Shockingly (okay, maybe not shockingly, but dismayingly), the City Council chambers do not provide free wifi, so I was stuck doing it through SMS, and as a result not all of twitter bits got through. But if you are interested in the highlights, or lowlights depending on how you see things, you can check us out on Twitter at www.twitter.com/citizenwausau.
We also recorded the meeting, and have the audio available here (mp3, 43MB).
It’s almost like being there.

With the election taking place yesterday, I decided to take a week off from celebration. It sort of brings the past couple of weeks together though, Tipple then Hadley, then the voters. So rather than move on, we’ll post the results, and you can see the turnout and how your future will be affected by your action or inaction.
Here are the results, thanks to the City of Wausau.
