Umm .. Wake Up

What I find interesting about the King County Councilmember Jane Hague incident is that nobody seems to make the connection between this woman's behavior towards police and what her behavior is likely like within her own family.

As the Seattle Times quoted:

The arresting officers "did not deserve the rude and abusive behavior. I was very angry that night," said Hague. "I was angry at myself, I was angry at the situation and I took it out on them. There is no excuse for that."

It makes one wonder how at least half of domestic violence incedents start. The language used by Hague was psychologically abussive and demeaning. Even the Eastside Domestic Violence Divas classify psychological abuse as domestic violence.

I doubt the connection will ever be made, but it would be nice if people would wake up and get this topic out of the gender polical realm.

First Annual Charity Golf Tournament

Join us for a day of golf, friendship and whole lot of fun as we support a great cause - keeping family relationships together.

The Other Parent is a non-profit organization that works to ensure children in separated families are able to rely on and benefit from the regular involvement of both parents in their lives.

Special guests include popular KISW radio personalities BJ Shea and Double R, who will be on hand to get the event started. Double R will also be showing his renowned golf skill as he vies for the tournament crown.

We’ll end the day with a great dinner, silent auction and closing comments by Double R and our other special guest, Seattle broadcasting icon Tony Ventrella.

WHAT’S THAT? You say you want to be on Double R’s ringer team and claim the top spot? You’re in luck, as we’ll auction off 2 spots to play with Double R. The lucky spots will go to the two highest individual combined bidders or the single highest bid by any twosome, whichever total is greatest.

The auction will be held on air by BJ Shea on KISW 99.9FM as the tournament date draws near. We’ll send out the date for the auction to all registrants in advance so those wanting to get hooked up with the legend that is DOUBLE R will have their opportunity.
