Will passage of amendments address the state's real issues?

Will passing the marriage amendment, or the voter ID amendment for that matter, improve the economy, create more jobs or get more people back to work in Minnesota? Will passing either of these amendments make the state’s budget balance? Will it improve our roads, bridges and highways? Will it make our schools better and our children better educated?
If the answer is no, perhaps you should seriously consider rejecting both of these amendments this fall.

City Council has spoken; no on-street parking this winter

Glencoe City Council has spoken, and as of Nov. 1 there will be no on-street parking in the community between the hours of 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. until April 1. And there will be no on-street parking on city streets during snow removal until the streets are cleared curb-to-curb, even if that comes after 6 a.m.
You have been warned. No excuses.
City Council gave its third and final reading to the “snowbird” ordinance amendment last week, but on a 3-2 vote. So not all were in agreement on this cantankerous issue.

Some consequences for twisting our tail

Teddy Roosevelt said: “Speak softly, but carry a big stick.”
Ronald Reagan sent bombers over Libya to let them know that if they killed Americans, there were consequences.
From our days on the school playgrounds, we knew the best way to deal with a bully was to hit him in the belly — hard —and that got his attention.
In 1938, Britain and France attempted to give in to the Nazis and Socialists. They sought “peace in our time,” but instead ended up in the greatest war of all time.
