Following ethics allegations filed earlier this week more and more has been coming out against him. At first I was very skeptical of the allegations but as information keeps getting released I am beginning to find the information very damning. The Republican Party of Wisconsin has filed a complaint and made a request for an investigation from the Office of Congressional Ethics. Reince Pribus the chairman of the RPW is no Mike Tate (chair of the DPW) and is not one to file frivolous lawsuits designed to simply smear Democrats. Thus I have to believe that there is something to it. Now more information has been released about potential FEC violations of Kind and his involvement in the "New Democrats." Below is a link to "The Weekly Standard" that outlines the issue.

Weekly Standard Article on Ron Kind involvement in "New Democrat" Scandal

This past Sunday (10/17) about 15 students and volunteers spent nearly three and a half hours setting up more than 1,100 small crosses in Wittich Field at UW-La Crosse. Each of those crosses represents one human life that was aborted in the United States on an average day. The following morning those students found those crosses littered across the field and 5 pro-choice signs affixed to the fence nearby. As Chairman of the UW-La Crosse College Republicans from May 2008 through May 2010 I witnessed vandalism towards the College Republicans from liberally biased groups such as the College Democrats and Progressives. One of those occurrences of vandalism prompted Chancellor Joe Gow to send an email to all students asking them to be respectful to the views and efforts of other student groups. Clearly these actions have continued. Liberals like to preach openness and tolerance however they clearly do not feel that their own tolerance rules apply to them.
