  1. Looks like DemLib Kenosha is in homicide competition with DemLib Chicago and DemLib Milwaukee.
    K-Town needs it’s own version of http://www.heyjackass.com.

      1. Actually, they are just as obsessed, but that doesn’t mean it wasn’t an incoherent idiotic rant. On the other hand, much of the city of Kenosha supports Biden who has repeatedly given incoherent idiotic grants, so I guess we’ll all just have to grin and shake our heads when we hear them.
