My complaint against the Sheriff was dismissed 4-1, not unexpectedly.
I think if a County Officer had appeared in a political ad for a conservative candidate, the roof would have fallen in. But supporting progressives places you above the law you are supposed to enforce. For those new to the blog, last March I filed an ethics complaint against the Dane County Sheriff for using his uniform, badge, gun and Dane County vehicles in a political ad for Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley. Picture below. her TV ad with the Sheriff can be seen here. After two hearings in April, at which the Sheriff did not appear to testify under oath, the Board recessed pending finding a date when the Sheriff would be available to testify. Subsequently, the Chair resigned, creating a second vacancy, and it has taken until now to constitute a Board with five member. Unfortunately, but no unsurprisingly, finding a date when the Sheriff would appear has proven impossible. The attorney representing him Friday said as much, pointing out that under the rules the Sheriff did not have to appear. She also said that she had a letter from the County Controller says that the Sheriff was not given a uniform allowance. I had a phone call and email from a former senior officer in the Department stating that the top five officers were given uniform allowances. I still believe that the patch on the uniform, the badge and his gun were issued by the county. The attorney again pointed out that the burden of proof was on me, and indicated they would never have the Sheriff testify under oath so I could prove it. Despite anonymous posts, which I think may have come from Sheriff's Department insiders fearing retaliation, on my blog stating that it was a Dane County Vehicle, that the shoot was done in a county parking lot with the Dane County Public Safety Building in the background, they felt that absent the Sheriff's testimony, they didn't have enough evidence to do other than dismiss it. One member of the Board suggested they ask for the statute to be changed to reflect the wording in the letter of guidance (which I mistook as a reprimand) saying the Sheriff should avoid even the appearance of impropriety. While I would support that, I believe it would do little good. A weasel will always find a hole. The Sheriff has shown little regard for ethics in the past. This at most will make him more careful to cover his tracks so that he can do it again and again without fear. As one of my Wisconsin lawyer friends said, "Filing a complaint against a Dane County Liberal? You'll be lucky to get off without jail time." Below are some of the stories about past concerns with our Sheriff.
Shawn Haney, a former member of the Sheriff's Department ran against Mahoney and filed a similar complain in the past.

Mahoney to reimburse county for stay at resort
I have been told that Sheriff Mahoney has used his uniform before in political ads and had agreed not to do so in the future. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9ZDqfmobJQ.
Excerpt: Some seven months after a resident first filed an ethics complaint against Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney, it appears the Dane County Ethics Board finally has enough members to hear it. Dane County resident Robert Hall brought the complaint in April, alleging that Democrat Mahoney violated the county’s ethics code when he appeared in a campaign ad for liberal Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley. Perhaps the bigger story here, however, is that Dane County , which prides itself on its left-wing ethics, did not have a functional ethics board for several months. The five-member board lost two members, including attorney Melinda Gustafson Gervasi, who resigned April 13, not long after a hearing into Hall’s complaint.

Must Read: Permanent Jihad, Continued. By Philip Jenkins
Excerpt: I dearly wish I had not been right. Back in early September, I did a post at this blog about potential terrorism in France and other European countries, under the title of The Age of Permanent Jihad. I wrote that The point is not just that many younger French Muslims are increasingly radicalized, but that they potentially have increased access to really dangerous heavy weapons, including automatic rifles, missiles, and even anti-tank armaments like Milan missiles. These are flowing into Europe from nearby battlefronts – in the Balkans, Libya and elsewhere …. The [French] army has made contingency plans for the “reappropriation of national territory”, meaning to win back control of neighborhoods where the population become hostile to the security forces and where guns are easily obtainable. And “guns” in this case means Kalashnikovs, possibly backed up by missiles. At the time, the projection seemed grim, and one journal turned down a related piece I wrote on the grounds of its fantastic nature. And then we have the horrific French news from the past two days, with all those automatic weapons on the streets of Paris . And presumably, London next. (Or NYC and Washington . ~Bob)

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/427302/frances-fifth-column-muslims-resist-assimilation
Excerpt: But what the French are most worried about — and what the Obama-friendly media are happy to gloss over while the president is pushing to import thousands of Middle Eastern Muslims into our country — is fifth-column activity, meaning French Islamists supportive of violent jihadists... In October 2011, a landmark 2,200-page report, “Banlieue de la République” (Suburbs of the Republic) found that Seine-Saint-Denis and other Parisian suburbs are becoming “separate Islamic societies” cut off from the French state, and where Islamic Sharia law is rapidly displacing French civil law. The report said that Muslim immigrants are increasingly rejecting French values and instead are immersing themselves in radical Islam. . . . (Transformation! Currently going on with division of US encouraged by regime with black anarchists/separatists demanding their own land taken from others and given to them so they can "be safe." Black separatists, like Islamic societies, want their own rules, their own laws; not white laws or Constitution. They don't "snitch" on one another either; part of being in the community. Something blacks seem to share with sentiments in this report; article notes that several women saw the wanted terrorists in Paris in St.-Denis but did not report it to the authorities because of social repercussions/repression by the terrorists in the community. Police in US frequently cannot trail black criminals because they are hidden by the community and/or others do not want to or will not "rat" on a brother. --Barb)

Has he lost his mind?... In consequence, there are only two choices here: Option 1) That John Kerry believes that killing people for speaking rudely is more understandable than killing them for being secular; or Option 2) That John Kerry doesn’t actually know what the most recent attackers used as their justification (and also doesn’t remember that at the same time as the Charlie Hebdo assassinations, associated gunmen targeted a market simply because its owners were Jews).
Boy taught to behead people by Islamic State reveals horror of children's terrorist training camp

Worth Reading : Contrary to Obama claim, US has history of admitting refugees based on faith
Excerpt: Immigration experts give President Obama Pinocchios for his claim that the U.S. has never used “religious tests” to determine which refugees get passage to America . Russian and Ethiopian Jews, Armenians Christians and Catholics from Vietnam have all been moved to the front of the line in previous eras based on their faith, according to historians. And giving one religious group preference is tantamount to sending others to the back of the lines, noted immigration experts. ... But under the 1990 law known as the Lautenberg Amendment, the federal government initially granted a presumption of refugee eligibility for Jews and Christians fleeing the former Soviet Union and Southeast Asia . Nowadays, the amendment, extended last year by Obama, prioritizes the resettlement of Jews, Christians, Baha’is, and other religious minorities who flee Iran . Obama, his critics and some experts appear to have taken at least three sides in the debate. (POTUS deporting Christians. --Barb)
Mass grave in Iraq tells horror story of ISIS massacre. As Europe mourns ISIS's deadly Paris attacks, only now is the scale of another massacre the West could have prevented becoming clear.
Maybe ones that could have been avoided if the USA had started getting serious with ISIS months before our leaders decided it was time to do so. Back when they were supposedly the "JV team". Failure to act much sooner, and much more seriously, has had a very high cost, paid for by thousands of innocents. This was a moral failure of major proportions. And this is a reason why ISIS must be smashed, torn to bits, eradicated, not just because of an atrocity affecting Western people in Paris, but because they are truly evil, a blot on all civilization, and nothing but their total, visible expunging is appropriate. Not only to stop their current evil, but to blast the whole horrible idea of a "new Caliphate" that is going to grow and bring on nothing but more bloodshed and destruction. --Del

Worth Reading : Paris attacks were not 'nihilism' but sacred strategy. By Mark Durie
Excerpt: Yet the first step in understanding a cultural system alien to one’s own, is to describe it in its own terms. ISIS does not subscribe to the Geneva Convention. Its actions and strategies are based upon medieval Islamic laws of jihad, which make no use of the modern Western concept of ‘civilian’. They do, however, refer to the category of disbelievers (mushrik or kafir). ISIS believes that killing disbelievers is a moral act, in accordance, for example, with Sura 9:5 of the Qur’an, which states :‘Fight and kill the idolators (mushrik) wherever you find them'. (One of the most important Christian writers on Islam and the global Muslim persecution of Christians, Anglican pastor and theologian Mark Durie, weighs in on the struggle to accurately render the meta-narrative concerning the Paris Jihad Attacks. --Robert Spencer, JihadWatch.org)

Excerpt: The chief United Nations human rights agency, with the Obama administration’s apparent blessing, is creating a new “regional hub” for itself in Washington , to use as a center for organizing against the death penalty, among other things, and for affecting the legal frameworks, policies, and strategies of American counterterrorism. In a management plan covering its activities through 2017, the agency, known as the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, or OHCHR, puts the U.S. in the same category for that counterterrorism “alignment” effort as countries like Iraq and Uganda . The fast-tracked human rights “hub” also has a number of more nebulous “thematic” objectives for the U.S., which include, according to an OHCHR information document, “the establishment of national participatory bodies for reporting and implementing recommendations of human rights mechanisms” and the aim of “widening the democratic space” with the aid of undefined “National Human Rights Institutions.”

Just as they do not care that the oil that would have been shipped by the Keystone pipeline will now be shipped by truck or train, with more environmental damage and higher costs for working people.
