Re: “Leahy Splits With Sanders, Welch on 'Cromnibus'”
This is not a good sign. Senator Leahy is treading down the wrong path.

Re: “In Reversal, Leahy and Sanders Reject Syrian Resolution”
Thank you to Senators Sanders & Leahy for thinking smart & voting with your conscience! Wish the results could have been different, but the powers that run the world only get richer through their warring, not through peaceful means. Not looking forward to the repercussions this travesty will bring us. Please keep up the fight! We are behind you!!!

Re: “Burlington City Council Moves Forward Church Street Smoking Ban”
Outdoor smokers do affect those whom they are standing, sitting or walking near! Unfortunately, most do just toss their buts wherever they well please, creating litter that washes down into public drains & into our waterways. Many of us are allergic to cigarette smoke, as it contains harmful carcinogens. It is highly offensive to have to sit in an outdoor cafe & endure the smell of a cigarette nearby when one is attempting to enjoy a meal. We all know that smoking is unhealthy and it's time we support what is best for public health instead of the pockets of the tobacco companies. Smoking is an addiction that does not create a healthy environment. Church Street is densely traveled during good weather, and smokers are way too close for comfort & breathing space for shopping. It makes sense to treat the area as one would treat and indoor space & ban all smoking.

Re: “Vermont Gas Pipeline Protester Arrested After Chaining Herself to HQ”
Thank you for sticking your neck out on the line for the rest of us chickens Sara. More people should speak up & stop this insanity. We know that there are alternate methods out there, rather than continuing the fossil fuel rape of the earth. We need to stop the corporation win over the people.

Re: “Shumlin Expects to Sign Vaccination Bill”
Politics do not belong in our health decisions. Most politicians are not savvy enough to dig beyond what is in front of them.
There is certainly more at stake here than exemptions. Our rights are being violated. We are responsible for our own health. No one else!!!! http://drtenpenny.com/#
