The losers were the working people of Northern Wisconsin and the Dems who say they support jobs.

BOOYA!

Anon: you obviously have not followed this bill. It could have been passed but an environmental rape was not acceptable.

Yes, but wait a day. After all, it's Wisconsin.

The working people of Northern Wisconsin are losing because the mining company has not applied under the current mining rules. There is no reason they couldn't have done that while waiting to see if the Iron mining bill passed. They would have been about 1/3 of the way through the process. Because they wanted to do away with the contested case hearing, which allows citizens to challenge the conditions of the permit, and because they wanted presumptive approval, and because they didn't want to dispose of the waste in an environmentally safe manner, Northern Wisconsinites are losing out. Who has the best interest of Wisconsinites at heart: an out of state mining company or your elected representatives?

Anonymous 8:52, you entirely contradict yourself, amazingly so.

Did you perhaps not get the full memo? Or spill the kool-aid on the part that somehow would have made your post logical rather than laughable? Try linear thinking, as your leaps of faith just fell flat.

@ 9:34: Point out where Anon 8:52 is incorrect rather than spewing.
