Word to Wisconsin Conservatives: Do or Die Time is Near!

Today's piece is for your faithful Peasant's fellow Wisconsin
conservatives, though all of you my grand readers should take
heed if you are soon to face a similar situation in the states
where you live. An election of great importance is coming
in just twelve days from today; normally elections that occur
in a year between a presidential election year and a gubernatorial
one doesn't draw great numbers of voters, as the offices up for
grabs are generally local ones and have no meaning to those not
residing in those communities. But this election, set for April 2,
is for extremely high stakes. An election for a soon to be vacated
Wisconsin Supreme Court seat will take place on that date. And
with the state's highest court currently in conservative hands
by a razor-thin 4-3 margin, and the next scheduled state Supreme
Court battle coming in 2020 COINCIDING WITH THE DEMOCRATS'
PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY, with a conservative jurist vying for
another term when his liberal opponent will greatly benefit from the
resultant heavy Democrat turnout, the ideological makeup of the
court is weighing in the balance. Wisconsin Appellate Court Judge
Brian Hagedorn, a conservative, is running for the seat being vacated
by retiring liberal Justice Shirley Abrahamson and his opponent is
Judge Lisa Neubauer, the very liberal (wait for it!) Chief Judge
of the Wisconsin State Appellate Court. After clashing on the
Appellate Court these two jurists are squaring off for a seat
on Wisconsin's high court. And it is a bruising battle, to be sure!

Some of Judge Neubauer's supporters have publicly attacked
Judge Hagedorn for his religious faith, stating that it makes him
unfit to be on the state's high court because he wouldn't be impartial
in cases regarding gay people and abortion. Hagedorn, an evangelical
Christian, some years earlier helped establish a private Christian school
which requires its students as well as its staff to adhere to the strictures
of their faith, comporting themselves to those rules in their lives at and
outside of school. They further claim that this school expells students
for being gay; the truth of the matter is that the school does no such
thing, but would expel a student for acting upon his or her homosexual
leanings at or outside of school, as it would go against the church's
rules of conduct according to the faith on which it was founded. No
one at the school looks for anyone who even remotely might be gay
with an eye toward expulsion based merely on sexual orientation.
What is happening here is a bigoted attack upon a person of a religious
faith by a group of people who a) disapprove of the religious faith itself
and b) the person practicing the faith. This is part of the Left's stock in
trade, attacking a political opponent on grounds not related to his
qualifications, his record, or ideas but instead something to which he
belongs and has every right according to the Constitution to belong to
and to practice. And the left-wingers hate with a frightening passion
anyone who belongs to a religion and practices a faith which they
vehemently disapprove of, which these days seems to be any faith
other than an ultra-liberal version of the Christian faith, i.e.
Unitarian Universalism, Reform Judaism, or some left-wing non-
denominational church, or Islam (the more radical the better).

All the while that this is going on, Judge Neubauer is trying very hard
to convince Wisconsin voters that she is an impartial judge, and will
be an impartial justice. Lots of luck with that, Judge. The MacIver
Institute, a Wisconsin free market research organization pointed out
recently that Her Honor's husband, Jeff Neubauer, was a Democrat
member of the State Assembly and then was the Chairman of the
state's Democrat party and a member of the Democratic National
Committee. Her hubby gave over $105,00 to national Democrat
candidates and $15,00 to President Obama for his two presidential
campaigns, according to WisGOP.com, ICYMI on March 4.
Judge Neubauer also backs radical U.S. Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-
Cortez' very radical Green New Deal, which among other things
will work to eliminate air travel as well as taxes fossil fuels and
home heating, furthermore harm Wisconsin farmers and middle
class workers (see www.agweb.com Democrat's Green New Deal
Wants to Eliminate "Farting Cows" --- no, really, that is the actual
title of the article!). Finally, Obama's former Attorney General
Eric Holder is leading a fundraising effort to fill the Neubauer
coffers with lots of lefty money, and has been quite successful
thus far from what your sharp-eyed Peasant has learned.
Judge Hagedorn has not been able to raise nearly as much money
by this late stage, and it is hampering his campaigns efforts in
getting lawn signs out to supporters who have requested them.
You of course see where this is headed.

In the meantime, my fellow Badger State conservatives, please do
what you can to help Judge Hagedorn to wage a successful campaign.
The judge is a staunch conservative who has always worked to uphold
the constitutional principles of limited government and governmental
accountability, in sharp contrast to his left-wing opponent.
If we lose this election, the next election for a Wisconsin Supreme
Court seat may well be won by the Democrats because they will be
at the polls in huge numbers thanks to their presidential primary
being on the same day, That would mean the likelihood of losing both
races, giving the lefties a 4-3 majority on the high court, enough of
a margin to undo the good and necessary reforms, including Act 10,
which Gov. Scott Walker gave us as well as any and all other conser-
vative legislation pertaining to gun rights, education reform, crime
reduction, and measures to save the lives of unborn babies. It is truly
"do or die" time in Wisconsin. And for goodness sake GET TO THE
POLLS AND VOTE on Tuesday, April 2! No excuses, no alibis,
just get your butts to the polls! Bring family, friends, neighbors,
co-workers, and fellow students along! This is a call to arms!

Twelve days until the battle. Will you be ready?
