Two previous discussions on McGee JR.

Fight breaks out at McGee protest:

Milwaukee Alderman Michael McGee Arrested in Dispute Over (Restraining) Order (this was his pregnant girlfriend who he threatened in court)

When I listened to the audio of McGee Sr.’s remarks on his radio show I could hardly understand a word he was saying. Besides the eubonics he sounded like he was either stoned or drunk.

From The Milwaukee Journal/Sentinal NewsWatch....

Jerrel Jones, the owner of radio station WNOV-AM (860) has barred talk show host Michael McGee Sr. from the air indefinitely because of the "deplorable" remarks McGee made yesterday about the death of Katherine Sykes. Sykes, the mother of Charlie Sykes, who has a show on WTMJ-AM (620), died in a fire in her home on Tuesday. During his "Word Warriors" program Thursday, McGee said Katherine Sykes deserved her tragic fate and suggested that her son was responsible. "I thought the statement was terrible," Jones said late Friday afternoon. "It was ridiculous and the timing was absolutely deplorable. "The remark was disgusting." Jones said he would meet with McGee Saturday morning to discuss the former Milwaukee alderman's offensive comments and the prospects of his return to the air. McGee buys his time on the station that Jones has owned since 1972. Jones took McGee's show off the air for a short period in 2004 after he used an obscenity during the "Word Warriors" show. In this instance, Jones has not determined whether he will allow McGee back on the air. "I am going to make sure that never happens again," Jones said. "I will guarantee myself that. "I don't know just what course of action that I will have to take."

He also wrote “A Nation of Victims”, another “must read” for conservatives.

It’s good to know that jsonline.com finally published something about this.

I doubt it will be in the print edition, they’re too afraid of the McGees.

But look who they keep voting to represent them. Congress critter Gwen Moore comes to mind, who’s scum bag kid was one of those (along with the acting mayors kid) that slashed the tires of vehicles rented by the GOP for the get out the vote effort in. As far as I know they only got a slap on the hand for that.

Charlie Sykes also gained nationwide fame last year, when right before the election, he received the infamous “Jon Cary stuk in Irak” photo from some fans that were serving in Iraq at the time. Shortly after he mentioned the photo, which he had just downloaded on his home page, many listeners (me included) put up threads here on Free Republic, and sent it to Drudge. Within and hour, he had Fox News, and CNN calling for interviews. He is the man that sent the photo nation wide. He loves our troops.
