Donald Fleischman, 37, of Green Bay, faces two counts of felony child enticement, two misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of a child and a misdemeanor charge of exposing himself to a child.


(snip)

According to a criminal complaint, Green Bay police went to Fleischman’s home on Nov. 19, 2006, looking for two runaways from Ethan House, a juvenile facility. They found a boy hiding in a closet and wearing only underwear and a T-shirt, the complaint said.

The boy, then 16, told authorities Fleischman also took him to a hotel in Appleton and then to a cabin near Florence for several days before returning to Fleischman's home. The boy said Fleischman provided him with beer and marijuana, the complaint said.


The article says that the kid had to be brought to this scumbag's trial in cuffs because he skipped out on two previous court dates. Perhaps the GOP was trying to protect one of thier own?

Baldwin, Obey, Kagen etc...

8. and a bar on every corner!

I really like the people of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but I did notice that there was a bar on every corner.

Wisconsin is a beautiful place. Maybe I'm weird, but I enjoy running around in the snowy cold!

9. There's a song by a WI folk duo that kinda sums up your

observations:

Up in Wisconsin
By: Pete and Lou Berryman

If you're coming up from Boulder
With your skis upon your shoulder
They are stupid to be bringing
Wisconsin's flatter than my singing
If you're gonna spend your yule here
Or you plan to stay a school year
It's a lovely place you've chosen
If you like your hinder frozen

Chorus:
Up in Wisconsin, up in Wisconsin
The weather isn't very nice
Up in Wisconsin, up in Wisconsin
They gotta fish right thru the ice

If you hate the taste of booze
Better bring your runnin' shoes
Better sneak around discreetly
Or maybe stay away completely
If you're moving to Wisconsin
And your wife is on the wagon
I feel it's only fair to warn her
There's a bar on every corner. (Chorus)

You needn't be sophisticated
In Wisconsin it's outdated
With our beer and with our crackers
We sit down and watch the Packers
If you bring your suntan lotion
To go romping in the ocean
You'll have to swim at Howard Johnson
There are no oceans in Wisconsin. (Chorus)

11. There's more to it than that...kick...

Here's a goofticket thread started 10-11-2007 that has some more background-Brown County Wisconsin is a corrupt RW stronghold-Fleischman almost wasn't charged--and it wasn't just one boy that "ran" from an adjudicated youth facility to get drunk and high before Donny acted out his "lusts" in Appleton hotels or his country "cottage"...

Republican Party Chairman Donald Fleischman, 37, of Allouez, Wisconsin was charged last month with two counts of child enticement, two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a child and a single charge of exposing himself to a child for allegedly fondling a 16-year-old Ethan House runaway and providing the boy with beer and marijuana late last year.
