What water, wetland protection is all about
"A little fill here and there may seem to be nothing to become excited about. But one fill, though comparatively inconsequential, may lead to another, and another, and before long a great body may be eaten away until it may no longer exist. Our navigable waters are a precious natural heritage, once gone, they disappear forever," wrote the Wisconsin Supreme Court in its 1960 opinion resolving Hixon v. PSC and buttressing The Public Trust Doctrine, Article IX of the Wisconsin State Constitution.

Very 'W'-like, don't you think? Of course 'W' does stand for Walker, doesn't it?
These people only know how to fund raise and campaign. They seem to know nothing about real life and how to govern.
Verrry Dubya-like. And keeping Walker in power would be every bit as disastrous as keeping Bush in power after 2004- we still haven't recovered from one Dubya's damage in America, and might never will. The same would be true in Wisconsin if Walker stayed for another 2 1/2 years.
Interesting and concise rebuttal: http://www.forbes.com/sites/rickungar/2012/05/09/scott-walker-using-100-million-of-taxpayer-money-to-fight-off-recall/2/
