Expanded fight against state-enabled WI pollution
[Updated] Two groups are challenging a recent decision by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources that willfully disregards a judge's order and sets the stage for massive manure spreading by an industrial-scale cattle feeding operation.
I've been saying for sometime that the fight to enjoy clean, accessible water in Wisconsin - - long guaranteed by the state constitution and case law - - is the signature environmental struggle right now in a state increasingly obeisant to conservative special interests and corporate power - - and this case heading for further litigation in the public interest is making the point:

Two environmental groups Monday filed an appeal challenging the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) decision on Sept. 11 to grant a water pollution permit to Kinnard Farms to expand its large industrial farm to more than 8,000 animal units...
Last month, the DNR approved the Kinnards' permit, allowing them to spread 70 million gallons of liquid manure and wastewater annually from their dairy operation in the Town of Lincoln on 8,000 acres of land in the towns of Lincoln, Red River and Casco, as well as land in Brown and Door counties. The permit was issued despite a October 2014 administrative law judge's decision that said that the DNR had authority under state law to impose a limit on the farm's animals and require off-site groundwater monitoring operations by the dairy.

None of this would have been necessary if Walker hadn't turned the DNR over to corporate donors instead of having it continue to protect the natural resources of Wisconsin.
But JIM DOHLE BUGGA BUGGA JIM DOYLE BUGGA BUGGA JIM DOYLE BUGGA BUGGA JIM DOYLE BUGGA BUGGA!
You see we need to destroy Wisconsin to save it. Scotty is only doing the work that needs to be done. And since he says it all comes directly to him from God, who are we to argue or complain?
Oh, and Our Lord's directive for Scotty to run for Prez is just another example of the strange way Scott Walker's God works.
