GOP stands alienating Hispanic voters
Gandalf's headline suggestion better fits this discombobulated article. Any thinking person knows undocumented immigrants can not vote so how does this offend a senator and US citizens who are Hispanic? This article is yellow journalism.

Town Talk: From Denver, site of today's oral arguments in the SLT case; a primer on the fight over whether the road should be built through the Baker Wetlands
BIA = Bureau of Indian Affairs.
The comment infers the problems of the SLT are because of a certain group of humans. One should not apply this type of logic (which mimics Sherman, Sheridan and Custer), to Indigenous People because there are many reasons for the delay of the SLT. This comment would be worthwhile for teachers to use as a real-example of how scapegoating creeps in societies.

K-10 panel to request safety barriers
No sense in placing cables on that median. It sure is wide enought for inattentive drivers to to careen in, then veer back out into their lane. Since most crashes are not occuring during rush hours, set up more visible law enforcement at those other times. Also, there appears to be a problem with vampires, maybe those crosses on the side of the highway will help.

Gov. Brownback cancels meeting with Rep. Paul Davis to discuss Lawrence SRS office
Thank you for posting this. Others need to be aware that Paul Davis is not associated with that awful company that shares his name.

Are you in favor of relocating the Lawrence Community Shelter from downtown to property east of the city?
Since the shelter will only be a shelter and not include the drop-in facility, there will be less pedestrian traffic. That said, the perfect location is the former Borders, hands down.

Kansas to keep working on rules for abortion clinics
Oh lord, what next, toe-nail extraction clinics are going to be regulated.....
There's no such thing as abortion clinic, only women's health-care facilities. One does not identify the foot doctor or foot clinic or any other speciality physician, by one single procedure.

Advisers begin K-10 cable barrier study
I think cables placed around Eudora will help protect the city from tornados.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt joins effort to save Utah highway crosses
Silly agnostics and atheists, crosses keep vampires away. A good christian never displays a cross.

Lawrence mayor to send letter to state officials urging Kansas Highway 10 cable barriers
Drivers, fess up, post here. The public needs more news stories from drivers who entered the median and then came back to their lane. Many, many lives are saved by that wide median - the young boy's memory could end up being cheesecutter for Cainen if cables are placed there, and no one wants that, least of all the family.

Speaking for God
I before E except after C, that's weird...carl became carol similar to the demise of stories in the bible being altered by oral tradition...and really the only god I care to know exists is the one on the legal tender...sigh, and by the way, phelps' cult are not the same as burkhead... they wear signs spewing bigotry which provide excellent teaching moments for children.
