CRG Readies Attack Against Sheboygan Mayor
A week or so ago some folks from the Sheboygan area met to discuss how to recall their Mayor Juan Perez now that he has completed his first year in office.
They had met before, but this meeting was going to be special. The “Experts” on recalls from Milwaukee County were coming to help the cause.
Citizens for Responsible Government sent their 2 biggest scammers — Orville Seymer and Chris Kleismet to “Help” the group in it’s efforts.
Seymer and Kleismet promised help from Milwaukee area newspapers and of course they were sure they could get the right wing talkers to cover the recall as only they do.
But they did have one question that they asked almost before the meeting started.
Did they want to know what the Mayor had done wrog? NOPE
Did they want to know how big the recall group was? NOPE
Did they want to know what the feeling of the citizens was? NOPE
No the first question they had before agreeing to get involved in the recall was….
How Will The Sheboygan County Republican Party feel about this recall?
Yep I guess it’s only worthy of a recall if your are recalling Democrats!!!

That’s the same CRG that folded up shop in Madison and is suing Milwaukee County for a million dollars to prove their fiscal responsibility, right?
You’re sorely misinformed. This recall effort is filled with democrats…Sheboygan has many democrats. This is a totally non-partison effort of the good citizen’s of Sheboygan that are troubled by this mayor and his council allies who are pulling together, no matter their political persuasion, to the betterment of their community. I do not appreciate your attempt to utilize your political hatred by lying about my community and its citizens.
You should also be aware that CRG representatives were very interested in the issues we face, did ask the questions you state they did not, and furthermore, were very credible, upstanding and respectable and never once brought up partisan politics concerning our recall effort.
You really should not lie. At the very least, learn the truth before spouting off like this. This was very unfair of you and worse, the information you state here is ALL WRONG. We are working very hard here and we take this very seriously. We do not need someone like you undermining our efforts or our affiliation with CRG. Please take your partisan, hateful attacks elsewhere and leave Sheboygan out of this. Thank you.

[...] Will the votes be there? Not a clue. Unlike Bill Stephen, I don’t see this as a GOP-led effort. Last I recall, Perez was not the choice of Emil Mazey, which didn’t make him the choice of the Sheboygan Co. Dems. [...]
This is definitely a non-partisan effort. This morning the papers were filed. Someone from Milwaukee told our local radio station, that they wished the citizens of Milwaukee were as interested in doing the right thing politically as Sheboygan is.

That was written April 25th after the intial meeting with Orv and Chris!
My point was only that the CRG folks from Milwaukee asked that question at their initial meeting. I’ve confirmed it with more than one PERSON WHO WAS ACTUALLY THERE!! To my knowledge CRG from Milwaukee has never recalled a Republican from Office. They are indeed Partisan!!
Having said that i also know that the Perez group does indeed have many folks from all sides of all isles on board, so this particular recall is not something that i see as driven by either party.
Kev….kev…Kev….
I know facts have never mattered much to you but 2 small items you may be interested in.
1) Mayor Perez was invited to the UAW retirees Picnics at Emil Mazey Hall Next week..I’m told he’ll be there.
2) I haven’t Worked at Emil Mazey Hall for over 3 years unless you count frying the Brats for the retirees next week!!!
It is right-wing anarchists like the CRG that truly frighten me. They never bother to ask the important questions. They try to make people believe they are doing them a justice when in fact they are just blowing off steam.

How Will The Sheboygan County Republican Party feel about this recall?
I have been in the city of Sheboygan for roughly a year. It has been hell without doubt, but recall Perez?
I moved to Sheboygan, a small business owner, looking to purchase a house.
I selected Sheboygan under false pretences and outright lies of how safe the city is, how it is a good place for a family, and of how low the crime is… bullshit. That is the Sheboygan of more than a decade ago.
The Sheboygan of today is plagued by corruption and crime. It has a plethora of felony business, drug czars, corrupt judges and crime in spades. Feel free to review http://snailsoft.cjb.net/forumdisplay.php?f=38 for details.
In 2005 the F.B.I. filed over 36,000 felony crimes for Sheboygan. Roughly 4,000 were handled by the local D.A.
That makes for more than 10 felony crimes a day for a year DeCecco handled, a quota 20 times higher than most D.A.’s manage. The result, law barely being carried out yet no justice given. This has given DeCecco a bad reputation for making felony crime in Sheboygan easy, yet isn’t his fault. Felony criminals have taken over the city and the police force today is the same as it was a decade ago even though the crime rate from 1995 to 2005 rose 1,300% Perez is trying to change that.
It is people like Mayor Perez who see’s the cities homeless worse than ever, who see’s peoples wages having less buying power now than in 1986, and who see’s that if Sheboygan is to survive, it CAN NOT continue to turn a blind eye and carry on as though it were still the 1900’s.
I do have grievances with the Mayor’s office. Mine though stem from not enough getting done quickly enough.
And what if the CRG gets their votes?
Who is going to replace Perez?
One of the 3 in 5 judges guilty of drug dealings?
One of the many business owners convicted of multiple felony crimes?
An already overworked D.A. who can’t possibly fulfill his position as is?
Someone in the utility companies poisoning residents by the tens of thousands?
And lets look at all these CRG members…
Overwhelming republican, white, racist, corrupt business owners who stand to lose the most by a Mayor who is forcing a long overdue change.
This effort is ridiculous, has anyone seen any of our last mayors, because I have!!! It is correct that Sheboygan is not a safe city anymore. I witnessed an 18 year old man attack a 9 year old boy and flee 2 weeks ago. The boy was running away as fast as he could after being pushed off his bike and hit with a chain. This city sickens me! Yes I am sick of our police force. They are inefficient, and cannot seem to crack crimes if their own skins even depended on it. As soon as I saw the website I was amazed at the racist undertones. Especially the picture of Juan Perez holding an American Flag. What they did was modify the picture to him holding the Mexican flag! Also teh “Juana recall” could you have a little more racism on your site? It just makes it seem unintelligent, and a total waste of my time. CRG and recall Perez, I formally write you off! Goodnight!
