I have been travelling the state in past couple weeks and have heard quite a few stories of people that want to do the right thing and some stories of people that think they want to do the right thing - but seem to be totally clueless.
Case in point - Representative Kagen from the Green Bay area. Seems he told a group of loggers that are in serious financial hardships for a variety of reasons that he needed to check with his friends with butterfly collections on the impact to their hobby before commenting on restrictive policies of the federal government on the logging industry.
I heard this story sitting a restaurant in the early morning in the most northern part of Wisconsin. The restaurant - usually empty at this time of day - was packed with loggers that didn’t have work to do because of the extreme actions of the environmentalist.
What a perfect commercial - Congressman Kagen checking with his friends on the impact of their butterflys while the north woods of Wisconsin sees jobs lost - businesses closed - families unable to make ends meet - while his friends are trying to determine the impact of their butterfly collection.
In my opinion Kagen has no clue on Doing The Right Thing.

I have written to Steve (M.D. - Mentally Disabled) Kagen. I find his replies to be completely Socialist and vastly liberal in nature.
He is very scary to me in terms of infringing on the Freedom of our fellow countrymen.
This guy has got to go. I can not understand why anybody, who understands Freedom (in contrast to Socialism and their historical perspectives), would vote for him.
John Gard has got to take this kook out.
All my best, John.
