I know in some parts of the country one can hire herds of goats to take care of the weed problem.

I'm sure there are plenty of illegals in that county who would mow it all for about $5 a mile, under the table of course...

Maybe they should try using goats, but then PETA would probably go nuts....another fine example of the "Law of Unintended Consequences".

I don't know about scotch broom, but once those damned blackberries get hold it's all over but the cryin'. Once they start popping up in the asphault, it's goodbye road.

Why doesn't Hillary just take the profits from RoundUp and create a fund for road maintenance in Santa Cruz?

Supervisors Ellen Pirie and Mark Stone sponsored the moratorium two years ago to protect drinking water, children and salamanders,

It's for the children!

""People don't pay taxes to be poisoned," added Marilyn Garrett, a long-time advocate of the moratorium."

Ignorance rises anew. I'm amazed at the level of ignorance that many have concerning basic science.

" the county's Public Works Department on Tuesday reported it doesn't have the money or the equipment to mow the blackberry, poison oak and scotch broom sprouting along the 600 miles of public road in the unincorporated county."

Let these guys do it. They work cheap.

In the audience, two mothers holding babies pleaded with the board not to allow county workers to spray the chemicals.

Illegals have "Anchor babies"; liberals have "Prop babies". In yet another context, that line would have read "In the audience, two mothers holding parasitic tissue masses..."
