Sherman Perk in Milwaukee - The owner is a right wing Walker supporter

I will not support a right wing extremist owned by a extreme conservative in my neighborhood.

I like supporting local business, but at the same time realize that it IS counter-productive to support the same people who want to crush the city you love.


Boycott SHERMAN PERK in the Norwood Neighborhood, the owner stands against everything we believe in and tell him you will not support a public school, union destroying business.

Listen, I am not an ideological purity guy, but we have to understand that conservatives and republicans now are so far to the right that we have to fight back any ethical and legal way we can. We can use are dollars as well and this is how I plan to use them. If anything a rightwinger cares about more it it is their money. They keep telling us it's a free country even thought they want to take their country back from the rest of us, stick it to them where it hurts - their PROFITS.

Midwest Renewable Energy, and they support local tea purveyor Rishi Tea.

Sad to hear this. My sister and BIL in Whitefish Bay patronize Alterra Coffee for their brewing needs, and I don't think they get over to Sherman Perk's neighborhood much. FWIW.

He started attacking me verbally after I called Scott Walker Gov. Douche Bag and how his side never attacked Doyle! Which of course is a lie, the supposed "Local Control" party and the party who tried to recall Doyle twice.

He said yes. He did.

Wolf in sheep's clothing and his values as a conservative go against the majority of the neighborhood.

The owner is a fake, he may pretend he is supportive of Milwaukee and the area, but that's to make a profit.

He is a fraud.

I went into a business to consider their services, get a quote so to speak. Well, I got into a discussion about Presidential politics with the owners Wife, probably an owner as well. She heavily criticized me for even considering voting for Gore. It wasn't logic or good politicking, it was fear of the socialist, the "other" and on down the line... I left and have never darkened that establishments' door again.
It was an eye opening moment. Damn, I though everyone was logical and considered all angles...

Since then of course I (and we, I suppose.) have been flummoxed by persons who should frickin' know better.

The way I see it;
Anyone who earns less than $250K,
anyone who expects to get old,
anyone who is young,
anyone who attends school,
anyone who thinks that someday they or their loved ones will get sick and need a Doctor,
anyone who drives a car,
anyone who uses electricity,
anyone who drives a truck,
anyone who rides mass transit on any kind,
anyone who eats food,
anyone who holds a job or wants to...
You get the idea. Every one of these people should vote Democratic.. Every chance you get and never, never, never vote for a Republican on any frickin' ballot! Never, ever!

on Greenfield av in Milwaukee. They are still listing "freedom" fries on the menu and often exhibit offensive anti Obama signs and pictures. I won't go there anymore.
