Scott Walker's attempt to take over the Board of Veterans Affairs at once and name the department secretary himself has split two of the state's traditional veterans groups, Milwaukee News Buzz reports.

The Veterans of Foreign Wars has endorsed the proposal, but the American Legion has gone on record in opposition.

2. "Attribution Error" is reliably supported in Social Psychology research:

It goes something like this: when asked to explain certain problems as they relate to people's behaviors, most people most frequently attribute OTHER people's problems or mistakes to their personal, permanent character liabilities and they attribute THEIR OWN problems to unavoidable, temporary, situational conditions that are not their own negative traits.
