Legislator Emerges From The Swamp, Attacks Wetlands

Ok, so it's a bit of a mixed, murky metaphor, but sometimes the state legislature resembles a swampy backwater, and Rep. Frank Lasee's suggestion that Wisconsin is wasting money creating and buying swamp land suggests that maybe Lasee has been drinking that swamp water?

And what's with that graphic on those webnotes, original here?

Is Lasee, (R-Bellevue), an Xboxer, a Dungeons and Dragons dropout, or a state official helping to oversee a $58 billion enterprise?
