On Tea party leaders upset with recall decision

Posted on February 8 at 8:44 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

OK, so 3rd parties can't allege fraud, but the targets of the recalls can. All the teabaggers have to do is funnel their evidence to Walker and HE can present it to the board. But it would be a waste of time since they got so many signatures, fully half of them would have to be invalid to call this off. Bye bye, Scott!!!

On Walker opponents to submit recall petitions

"The state Republican Party has hit on the same theme, portraying Walker as a "do something" governor. "It's not always popular," the mailing says, "but it's working."

It's working great for the top 1%, but not for the rest of us. The rest of us find ourselves poorer, less well educated, less optimistic, and less happy than our parents' generation. That has never happened before in America.

Whose government? OUR GOVERNMENT!

It's too late. This genie's not going back in the bottle.

On How does one develop a “work ethic”?

Posted on December 1 at 6:59 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

My parents lives were so profoundly affected by the Great Depression that I think they tried to instill a strong work ethic in their children to help them cope with economic uncertainty. No generation since theirs has had that insecure mindset. Perhaps the current "depression" will have the same result.

So the article seems to say, "Stop all this outrageous government spending. Oh, but keep those Social Security checks coming!"

On the same web page as this story about an unfortunate hunter who got shot is an ad for a hunting game, "Hunt Now, play Hunting Unlimited 2011 Free." We really do have an entrenched gun culture in this country.

I think they were just expressing surprise that the usually suppressive Gazette left this story open for comments. Probably an oversight.

I realize some people can't tolerate it, but I love the smell of wood smoke in the winter, especially oak and hickory. That smell plus the sight of smoke streaming straight up from my chimmney on a cold, still day are essential parts of the season for me.

Of course the cameras should be on all the time. What possible reason could there be to ever turn them off, except to hide something?
