Todd gets restraining order against McGee

A former Milwaukee School Board member today obtained a restraining order against Milwaukee Ald. Michael McGee, saying McGee continues to harass him for supporting the recall effort against him.The temporary restraining order sought by Leon Todd was issued by a court commissioner, who scheduled a hearing for March 13 on whether to make the order permanent.In seeking the order, Todd cited a December statement by McGee - aired on the WNOV-AM (860) program hosted by McGee's father, Mike McGee - in which the alderman said Todd should be "hung" for his "betrayal of the community."On Friday, according to Todd's attorney Alan Eisenberg, McGee gave out Todd's phone number on the air, which resulted in a series of harassing telephone calls, including death threats.On the same program, McGee gave out the phone number of a producer at WISN radio, which had broadcast a parody song about McGee and the recall. According the station's Web site, that producer also received harassing telephone calls and has reported the matter to the Greenfield police.McGee could not immediately be reached for comment today.Todd is a former mayoral candidate who last week lost in his bid to return to the School Board. He is working with recall organizer ViAnna Jordan's campaign against McGee. Jordan is one of at least six people running against McGee in the April 3 recall election.If no one gets more than half the votes, the top two finishers will face off May 1.McGee fought the recall for weeks before dropping that effort last week. At that point, McGee blamed a "web of deceit" involving various "principalities of darkness" - from the mayor's office to the Election Commission - for allowing the recall to proceed.

This is the mentality by the "leaders" of the inner city. If you are black you have to step in line and support any poor behavior by other blacks. If you are for proper behavior and personal responsibility you are not really black....Hey, its not me who is saying it, McGee is by his own actions and words

Game,

I'm not in Milwaukee. I suppose I should be aware of the McGees in case they are like the McKinneys of Georgia and one turns up in Congress.

the McKinneys are classier than the McGees

The McKenneys are pretty classless and crude. The McGees must be thugs and trailer trash.

(measure of how huge this story really is.)

*yawn*

Has anyone heard of the Martinez-es who. . .

Game, the point being, that this goes on everywhere. It's just with different names and faces on the people, is all.

Check our paper once in a while. You'll see. Check papers in any other city in the U.S., and it's the same.
