• O Lord, Won't You Buy Me A Mercedes-Benz?

  By Jeff Wagner CREATED Jan. 24, 2013

  Some people are thoroughly offended by the latest ad put out by Mercedes-Benz. Candidly, I'll take Kate Upton over those "naughty or nice" Santa commercials any time!

• Let's Fast Track The County Board Pay Referendum

  By Jeff Wagner CREATED Jan. 21, 2013

  I would never accuse any Republican who served in the Wisconsin State Legislature over the past two years of being politically timid. Any GOP elected official who put up with the abuse, disrespect, lawlessness, boorish behavior and overall childishness engaged in by opponents to Act 10 during "Capitol Chaos" has certainly earned their spurs.

• Wisconsin Republicans Need To Remember That They Won

  By Jeff Wagner CREATED Jan. 8, 2013

  As I frequently say, elections have consequences. That's why we have Obamacare and why it was prudent for some Republicans to vote for tax increases on the very highest income earners to avoid having the country go over the "fiscal cliff"!

• Tom Barrett And The Gun Control Two Step

  By Jeff Wagner CREATED Dec. 31, 2012

  At some point, we're going to have to have a serious conversation about ways to stop gun violence in this country. Unfortunately, I see little to make me believe that elected officials are willing to offer practical, real world solutions.
