On State budget cuts roll downhill

Let me get this right Eric: you enable the union contracts on the table to get passed quickly and pass it off as "good faith" bargaining and now you complain that the city cannot make up the difference in state aid because of that? What? It seems to me that you made the big mistake and all of us taxpayers are paying for it. Someone at your stature of office should have seen that coming and bargained with the unions that the game has changed. Because of that change you should have bargained better with the best interest of the city in mind! The School Board made the same mistake and now they're laying off 130 people. Wake up Eric!!!

Name calling and unsound judgements have no place in the political landscape. It is great that the voter has a voice!

The statement made that we have the same number of firefighters now, in 2011, as we did in 1980 is incorrect. Station #4 opened in August 1980 and staffing was gradually added until approximately 80 firefighters were on staff. Station #5 was opened in 1995 and staffing was also added then.

I think it was prudent to vote on this sooner rather than later. It was the right thing to do in light of the danger to children. Bravo for moving quickly, even if all of the information had not been reviewed.

We are happy to hear that people recognize Cheryl and George's pizza business as the real deal. It is the best pizza around and you'll find yourself going back frequently. It is also great that Georgio's is surviving this recession. More power to them!!

I am extremely disappointed that you did not endorse hometown guy Feingold. He has earned the right to another term!
