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.

What?
You're portraying the proposed sell-out of FDR's legacy by a self-described blue dog "Democrat" through chained-CPI austerity on seniors as a victory?
It's only the looneys on the right-wing who are keeping Social Security intact (for all the wrong reasons, of course).
Boener shot himself. YOUR CANDIDATE is intent on putting the knife into his consituents and betraying FDR's legacy.
Yeah, that's foxy alright. THE FOX IS GUARDING THE HENHOUSE.
Likely self-inflicted rather than anything of Obama's doing.
Do tell or link, please. Great Friday teaser or art of the world has ended.
