Priorities people!

Last year state legislators set a record at the capital by getting practically nothing done as party lines remained solid as a brick. The biggest story to come out of the current session makes me wonder if any progress is going to be made this time around.

Apparently a fiery debate over naming a highway after Ronald Reagan had everyone about to boil over in St. Paul last week. I don't pretend know the procedures set in place at the state government level, but shouldn't the proposed bills be introduced and discussed in accordance with some level of priority and importance.

I love Ronnie and all he did for the country, but we can get back to naming highways AFTER we settle a budget defecit, issues with public education and a constitutional amendment surrounding gay marraige.
