The Difference One Word Can Make

Fischer, the Belling-wannabe, kisses up to his hero in this post, describing the Bellower's tirade against the Great Lakes Compact, and writes:

Sounds like Mark actually read the Compact and knows what he’s talking
about.

Call me crazy, but instead of looking up to someone who sounds like they read it and sounds like they know what they are talking about, I would much rather prefer to pay heed to some who HAS read the compact and DOES know what he is talking about. Someone like James Rowen.

Those Poor, Poor Exburbanites

McIlheran bewails the fate of the poor, genteel folks in western Waukesha County. He warns against doom and gloom that would surely befall them if the state were to pass the Great Lakes Compact.

Unfortunately, the majority of state senators don't see it the same way. Add to this that Waukesha Mayor Larry Nelson also supports the compact.

Making McIlheran's misery complete, the Brawler has already noticed this:

What McIlheran omits, of course, is that the mayor of Waukesha supports the Compact -- and is catching hell from County Republicans about it.

You'd think that'd be worth mentioning. But it undermines McIlheran's argument so it's just cast aside.
