Kansas Action for Children criticizes Brownback's plan to divert funds from children's endowment
Does Brownback think that being elected governor of the state gives him the legal power to do whatever he pleases? Many of his ideas border on criminal! Are there not checks and balances in this state that are looking into the legality of his actions? Stealing from children is illegal for anyone else in the state. Why is Sam not being investigated for this? If I said I planned to take 150 dollars from a few children to help out my financial situation, I'd be put in jail! Why is Sam still walking the streets?!?!

Lawrence ranked second-worst-performing small metro area, according to new national economic index
Looks like Brownback's follies are starting to show their effects! Cities in Kansas seem to really be suffering through the past couple of years.

KBI arrests Franklin County sheriff and deputy on obstruction of justice charges
Are you saying that cops in Eudora arrest or ticket people for driving under the influence, having lights & blinkers that don't work or running stop signs and that the cops are corrupt because of this? I take it you got arrested for a DUI and you want to blame "corrupt" cops for it.

Statehouse Live: Republican leaders considering constitutional change to thwart school finance ruling
"In addition, Republicans are considering a proposed constitutional amendment that would give Gov. Sam Brownback more power in selecting appellate judges". Good God! The King of Brownbackistan already has enough power to destroy our state! Don't give him the ability to put his cronies into the only position that can stop his mad schemes!

Roberts, Moran vote for bill avoiding fiscal cliff; Jenkins, Yoder, Pompeo, Huelskamp vote against it
Jenkins, Yoder, Pompeo, and Huelskamp are pathetic! They are willing to sacrifice every Kansan's livelihood and send us into recession just to spite the opposing party. Lawmakers need to STOP thinking of themselves as Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal and START thinking of themselves as Americans! We're all on the same team here. Stop working for a political party and start working for a nation!

Should the state put more limits on teachers' collective bargaining rights?
Educators are some of our most IMPORTANT people! We should not limit their bargaining rights any further and we need to pay them FAR more than we are. After all, they are responsible for educating and protecting our children for a fairly sizable portion of the day. Our governor is trying to stop paying teachers and trying to take away any recourse the teachers have for contract negotiation/feedback. The leaders of Brownbackistan want to destroy the eduction system so that only the church has a say in a child's upbringing outside of the parents. If the teachers living in Brownbackistan suffer, then the children of Brownbackistan suffer and ultimately all the citizens of Brownbackistan suffer! Emperor Brownback, please stop destroying our free, education-hungry, culture & art loving civilization!

Town Talk: New housing development proposed for Sixth and George Williams Way; alterations shop opens at Sixth and Wakarusa; rumors that Casey's General Store interested in Lawrence
Uh, every place has a NW part. May not be labeled on a map as such. May be covered with water or ice in some places but it's still the NW part. You see, a compass is a circle and it can be broken down into ALL KINDS of sections. If your compass on your map is pointing with N directly at the top, then the NW part is the quadrant in the top left part of the map. If something gets built in that top left part then it's relative location is in the NW. Paul, is that really too hard to understand? No, they didn't put up a sign or a line of tape all the way around the quadrant to denote that it is the NW part of town. That's just kind of implied...because it's in the NW part of town. No official (or unofficial) designation needed.

Brownback says he wants more transparency in property taxes; Corliss said requirements already there
Brownback is crook! Our educational system is suffering because of his greed and it's only going to get worse if he stays in office.
