Dear Governor,
Please stop trying to pass legislation that undercuts environmental protections of the states natural resources. The economy relies on resources, and if you don't protect them, they will be squandered.
Please stop stealing money from the federal government for ObamaCare-give back the $49 million.
Please don't let safe sex education become a thing of the past while you gut funding from public health agencies. The sexual health of every child in Wisconsin is in peril with SB 237.
Please don't tell the fine people of this state that you create jobs when we know we lost almost 10,000 jobs in Wisconsin-mostly private sector.
And another thing, please Step Down; if you really wanted to save some cash, don't make the state spend it recalling you.

I love supporting local business. However, I am torn by the truth of the celebration; maybe others should read this following link about the real Thanksgiving.

On Merry Christmas Governor Walker!

I thought it was designated a holiday tree to recognize all religions and not just christianity...it seems a bit rude to change it now...it's as if, to Walker, other religions don't matter; only his. FYI- I am from the Freedom from Religion camp, and I believe this move is a sure sign of things to come from this administration...

taxandspend-you must be OK with Walker destroying the middle class...We aren't moving-we're moving Walker out of office. Don't forget-it was a SLIM majority that voted him in.

On City could change ethanol plant’s permit

Posted on September 16 at 10:14 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

facts101- Now, now, no name calling. The plant that produces junk mail (something most people don't want and throw away) does not use recycled paper, or soy based ink; less toxic and more sustainable alternatives. The Frank Brother's pit belches toxins into the air and water and smells much worse than the Ethanol plant. I can't imagine PAH's being good for anyone, including Storr's Lake. No one complains because they supply the county with whatever they need for highway projects.
Your food prices are not higher because of Ethanol; they're higher because the price of a bushel of corn is higher now than it has ever been because of inflation-most farmers are not racing to supply Ethanol plants with their corn (simply a scare tactic to fool people into believing Ethanol is bad). Other crops are much better suited for Ethanol i.e. switch grass and hemp; both native and require no pesticide, herbicide, or irrigation because they are suited to our climate, and produce more energy per acre hands down when compared to corn.

I believe the plant should comply with all safety and health regulations and if they continue to be a problem they should be shut down-no one is above the law, here. I would also encourage people to voice their opinions on this subject where it counts- this forum is not it.

I wonder if the cyclist will sue for medical bills? I hope he/she does.

On Janesville City Council to discuss water tower

Posted on August 9 at 11:29 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

Wouldn't it be more reasonable to expect the city to fix and/or replace all existing pipes and works instead of adding a new tower to a failing system?
