Looking Back Fondly

Remember the good old days?

When the right side of the Cheddarsphere still thought Gov Doyle spent too much on education instead of whinging about a percentage point or two in a Budget proposal.

And remember when folks were praising Mark Green for saying that in his administration business would only have one phone number to call if they wanted the help of the state? Now, if the DOT turns out to have helped a Wisconsin business those same Green supporters want to make a Federal case out of it.

Remember those lazy hazy days back when Scott Jensen was found by a jury of his peers to be a felon? Whatever happened to Scooter, anyway? It seems like just a year ago he said he was going to file an appeal and clear his name.

Does anybody remember that giddy summer when JB van Hollen said that, if only we'd elect him, then we'd be free of terrorists in Wisconsin? Are those terrorists still training in the Northwoods or have they all gone to work at the Leinie Lodge, having seen the error in trying to stare down AG Goodhair?

It must be true what they say. "Nostalgia ain't what it used to be."
