Merlene Davis explains it all for you

I guess every newspaper has a couple of Dumb Columnists. Here's a gem that one of mine printed today (I swear this is not meant to be ironic):

That's called democracy, a system of government in which our representatives are supposed to explore and debate the issues, then vote the way we tell them to.

Fortunately, our other outstanding Dumb Columnist, Cheryl Truman, is ending her column. She had a great series of columns a few years when she complained about the salaries of people working for the public schools. Her main gripe seemed to be that people shouldn't earn a good wage if Cheryl Truman doesn't understand what they do.

Oh, surely you have a couple dopes on the State Journal/Capital Times payroll.

Though I guess you get offsetting bonus points for birthing The Onion.
