Getthefactsfirst-As far as the law enforcement center correct me if I am incorrect, but haven't there been numerous delays causing the price to increase and demands from the city for the law enforcement center that have increased this cost?

Get the facts first. It is funny that I get a discount on my homeowners policy for having a staffed fire station within 5 miles of my home. Will this discount still be there?

Mary Anne Evans- You seem pretty mature resorting to name calling.
Why should Brian Davis have to comment on Bachmann's statement if Obama doesn't have to comment on Ayers statement in 2001 I don't regret setting bombs" and "I feel we didn't do enough", and, when asked if he would "do it all again," as saying "I don't want to discount the possibility

Noosed Palin mannequin removed from front yard
The Associated Press
WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. - Amid a growing frenzy of protesters and media surrounding his home, Chad Morrisette decided his noosed Sarah Palin mannequin should be cut loose.
He and his partner had created the effigy of the GOP vice presidential hopeful three weeks ago and vowed to keep it outside their home until Halloween, despite widespread criticism from neighbors and local officials. On Wednesday the mayor convinced Morrisette the mannequin should come down.
"I explained to them that this could be dangerous to you and your neighbors," said Mayor Jeff Prang, noting that he received hundreds of venomous e-mails from people offended by the display. "They were totally unprepared for this kind of international attention, for the amount of impact on their home and their neighborhood."
Besides a constant flow of angry callers, the homeowners had received a visit from the Secret Service and criticism from a Los Angeles County supervisor who ordered an investigation into whether the effigy constitutes a hate crime.
Then, on Wednesday, neighbors covered up the Palin mannequin with sheets, and more protesters showed up later in the day accompanied by a man driving a vehicle adorned with an effigy labeled "Chad," with a noose around its neck, said sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore.
"This evening, it wasn't as friendly," he said.
Prang said he drove by after work and saw protesters and media around the home with helicopters overhead. Morrisette saw the mayor and waved him inside for a talk.
Afterward, the mannequin came down, but Morrisette kept the rest of his Halloween decor intact, including a display of Palin's running mate, John McCain, popping out of a flaming chimney.
