Good politician story - finally. Milwaukee Mayor saves life.

    Here's a good story about a politician. The Mayor of Milwaukee, Tom Barrett, apparently responded to a woman's call for help, and was attacked by an asshole with a pipe, hospitalized for the effort. He apparently got his licks in, though, fracturing his hand on the asshole's bod when the Mayor punched him, causing the assailant to flee.

    It was a heroic act, worthy of praise. Milwaukee members, hope your Mayor recovers swiftly.

    Well done, buddy.:)

    See, all politicians aren't scumbags. Grant it, he was probably having an affair with the woman, but still heroic.

    Hahahahahahaah! Well, it used to be the Dems (this mayor is a Dem) were the randy fellers, and the republicans were the guys getting busted for white collar crime - is my memory right? Now, it seems, doin the nasty with a paramour is a truly bipartisan dance. That, and the contrite apology on nationwide television.

    Come to think of it, I think they all got it down from Good ole' Jimmy.

    Though gotta say, no one's had the style of Jimmy, since :D

    (And dude - grew up on PC Jr.....how do you get that ROFL dude in a post? - lol).

    If you were in the same family with this guy you'd probably find it hard to contain your wild side as well.

    Hahahah, yeah, that is pretty funny. It's always been funny to me, too, that theater has been at the heart of both performers' work, and yet some take at least one of them seriously.:D

    OK, lame story, I know - but growing up, I would take bets with my best Pal that if we flipped the channel away from Swaggart, and came back, he'd be crying. I used to do an impression of him....usually, the same stupid line (god, this was really bad, thinking of it...hahahah): "And then I came up....[sob, sob]...to the [sob]...the ....mountain [BIG sob], and then I...[sob]....I..... [sob]...sat under a TREE!!!!!!!!!!!!! [MONUMENTAL sobbing].....

    Well, I warned you.
