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.

From Scientific American magazine: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-scott-walker-dismantled-wisconsin-s-environmental-legacy/
Also NOT an Onion Story:
Governor Scott Walker tells donors he’s still praying over presidential run
http://fox6now.com/2015/06/19/governor-scott-walker-tells-donors-hes-still-praying-over-presidential-run/
Walker won't be convinced even by the words of a pope advising respect for nature -- because he is that ridiculous: a Koch henchman who claims to hear god's words in the imaginary sound of bling (i.e., money hitting campaign coffers supporting his presidential delusions).
This self-proclaimed "god-hearing" stinkycheeseyrider wouldn't even listen to Wisconsin's own clergy suggesting he respect workers' rights years ago.

Walker may have to hear all the people across America finally putting a stop to him -- and to the horses a**es he road in on.
La Mer
Of course Scott Walker won't listen to the Pope. He has a hotline to God directly (I know because it was reported in Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) and doesn't need any intermediaries. He won't listen to constituents either, because he is talkin' to the Big Guy himself. Why bother with the masses of unwashed sinners if God tells you everything to do anyhow?
@Anonymous 10:19 am - "...the Big Guy"...uh, well, I just say "thank Goddess for the progressive bloggers who make us laugh sometimes (or we'd be some really spitting-upset badgers here!!!!"
