The state [...] Posted by Ed Heinzelman on September 1, 2010, at 9:10 pm
Here’s a link to the Hill’s 50 Wealthiest Legislators in Washington! Somebody there missed Herb Kohl…since the 50th person is at $5.1 million, Senator Kohl should certainly have been on this list. The Milwaukee Bucks alone should put him near the top. Wisconsin didn’t do too badly: #26 Representative Jim Sensenbrenner is the Wisconsin [...] Posted by Zach on September 1, 2010, at 6:43 am
This is just hilarious…. Senate Majority Leader Russ Decker (D-Weston) raised a few eyebrows when he called for an audit into student governance matters at UW-Stevens Point at the behest of his son, Jeff Decker.

A lot’s been made elsewhere on the blogosphere about the fact that the website of PACUR, the plastics company owned by Republican U.S. Senate candidate Ron Johnson was edited to change the company’s history to be more consistent with Ron Johnson’s version of his “life story,” but Annie K. of eau snap! astutely pointed [...] Posted by Zach on August 31, 2010, at 5:59 am
Yesterday Democratic Lt. Governor candidate Henry Sanders, Jr. released an editorial making the case for the state to implement Best Value Contracting as a means of ensuring Wisconsin’s taxpayers get the most possible bang for their bucks, both in the short term and especially in the long term. Here’s the text of Sanders’ editorial: [...] Posted by Zach on August 31, 2010, at 5:33 am
Under John Chianelli’s watch, problems at the Milwaukee County Mental Health Complex were rampant, finally boiling over when allegations that a violent male patient had sexually assaulted a female patient, resulting in that female patient becoming pregnant, despite the fact that she was supposed to have been getting birth control injections. Last week Wednesday [...] Posted by Zach on August 30, 2010, at 5:13 am
This is just a great story… When the levee along the Industrial Canal failed back in 2005 and the wall of water drowned much of New Orleans’ Lower Nine, the area north of Claiborne Avenue – the poorest section of the neighborhood – was hardest hit.
