On Should Wisconsin go ahead with plans for high-speed rail service or abandon the project?

Why don't they just approve it now? Five or 10 years from now they will pass it anyway, at double the cost. It happens all the time with school referenda.


On Bond set for driver in fatal crash

I am tired of people defending their ILLEGAL AND IMMORAL actions by playing the "I was molested, I came from a broken home, I came from an abusive home, OR I was a battered mate...card!

I came from a battered child and dysfunctional home, background. When, as an adult, I realized it was affecting my life, I got help BEFORE it ruined my life or someone else's.

There are surely exceptions, and reasons for not getting help. I don't know the circumstances of this perticular case, so I WON"T SPEAK TO IT.

HOWEVER! The general rule would be GET HELP for mental and phychological issues like P.T.S.D., just the same as if it were a physical illness!

If he did not, or the V.A. would not get him help...therein lies the shame of it!


On For both news and entertainment, do you watch more network television (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX) or cable television (CNN, FX, HBO, etc.)? Why?

I DON'T HAVE CABLE, AND DON'T CARE TO. WE ONLY HAVE THE TV ON IN THE EVENING, ANYWAY.

If a teacher, or daycare provider did the same thing,"sexting" I mean, would they get off with no discipline? I don't think so...I hope not...I pray not.

BY THE WAY...THREE OF THE FOUR PEOPLE I SPOKE OF DIED IN THE 1970'S. YOU COULD SAY IT COST THE FOUR OVER A MILLION DOLLARS AT TODAYS INCOME VS. COST VALUES.

They had the RIGHT to live longer and enjoy the money they earned during their lives! Tobacco companies got rich. They got dead!

Have any of you people talking about "rights" ever watch someone die of of the effects of tobacco? I have...4 TIMES! Between the four, there were over $400,000.00 in medical and nursing home bills! These people went through The depression, WWI, WWII, and worked their behind off all of their lives, only to have cancer, heart disease and strokes take every cent they own! They didn't know the harm cigarettes could cause,because the tobacco companies lied to them. You talk about rights!? Their rights were violated big time! Three of the four did not live to see their 60th birthday!

My husband and I each lost both of our parents to the effects of cigarette smoking. They came from a generation that did not know what the cigarette manufacturers were hiding about the health problems cigarettes cause, so I am not faulting them. However we know now what cigarettes can do, so I am annoyed at anyone 40 or younger that takes up the habit. To you...young people...have you ever watched someone die of lung cancer or stroke? We have; four times, now. The cigarette ban in public places is wonderful.

Disgusting! Degrading! What next? The "Fat Lady" or the "Tallest man in the world?" This is a fair, not a circus! Many of them don't sponsor acts like that anymore! We are a better society than that!
