JEFFERSON CITY — My colleague Kim McGuire has posted on her blog more news of a staff shakeup at the Missouri Department of Natural Resources that might be related to the E. coli controversy at Lake of the Ozarks.

The news was first reported yesterday by the Columbia Daily Tribune.

DNR officials aren’t saying why the staffers were let go.

I think someone ought to run in the primary against one-term Jay; after I beat Akin next year, if I do, or even if I dont, I think I might.

Am I the only person that is thinking this keeps getting more bizarre?

Too bad the DSP employees don’t really get to speak out about there job cuts…theres several ways the state could have saved there employees from job cuts but that makes sense. Like all that tree damage to parks, why not sell off the trees and put the money back in general revenue, to have the money to pay for those employees. Oh but that makes sense. Or how about laying off everyone for the winter months until the new season opens..Wonder how much money that would saved….But again that makes since also. Look at it this way as long as no one steps in it will continue and who will be next.
