State Rep. Jeff Wood was arrested for drunk driving yet again. I don’t think there’s a single soul in Wisconsin who’s shocked that Wood was arrested again, but I think it’s clear he needs to resign his seat in the State Assembly immediately so he can focus on addressing what’s clearly a HUGE problem [...]

The Sconz said it was his quote of the day, but this has to be my quote of the year: “It is hard to tell which is the greater obstacle to accomplishing real drunk driving reform: the bumper-sticker politics Republicans who want to pretend that governance and enforcement doesn’t cost anything, or weak-kneed Democrats [...]

State Representative Jim Soletski, a Democrat from Green Bay, thinks putting two traffic roundabouts near Lambeau Field is a bad idea, because some fans might be too inebriated to safely navigate the roundabouts:

I remember when Rep. Jeff Wood, arrested earlier this year for drunk driving and possession of marijuana, said he wouldn’t fight the charges against him or hire a lawyer. Unsurprisingly, Rep.
