The 14 Democratic senators who fled Wisconsin rather than vote on Republican Governor Scott Walker’s budget measure are suffering unforeseen hardship while hiding out in the People’s Republic of Illinois.
“We thought we’d be feted here, what with Rahm Emanuel being the new mayor of Chicago,” said Senator Jon Erpenbach (D-Middleton). “I mean aren’t we the vanguard of the struggle against fascism? Hasn’t the President praised our strategy? Yet, we find ourselves lonely and ignored.”
One of the chief gripes is “we have to pay for everything—food, shelter, entertainment, you name it—out of our own pockets,” Erpenbach complained. “And our paychecks have been stopped. The Governor says if we want to get paid we’ll have to come back to work. What is he, some sort of dictator?”
Senator Fred Risser (D-Madison) said he may be “forced to move to a lower class hotel like Holiday Inn if this goes on much longer. What the Governor has made us go through is criminal. Walker ought to be ashamed.”

Snort.
Life is a bitch hey guys? Guess you’ll have to go back to get some gelt and then...
Tell me it’s not sarcasm, right? Right?
Yeah, Hitler times two actually. That's why the world is still pissed at Hitler, that Nazi wouldn't give paychecks to those that didn't show up to work.
Duh! I do that every day!
But they did give free accommodations to people who were forced to.
I would bet in one way or another that the unions are picking up the tab for every one of them.
Hey, ping me to these important revelations. (I’m old scool buddy)
I should care?
Good one John.
LOL!
HaH. Brilliant.
“forced to move to a lower class hotel like Holiday Inn”
If this elite SOB thinks Holiday Inn is low class, wait till he downgrades to Relax Inn, Knights Inn or America’s Best Value Inn. He will come running home to his bed in WI.
Fred Risser is about the biggest tool of the bunch, but far from the sharpest
Hysterical! Love it.
Hey John, I thought those Democrats were in hotels that rent rooms by the hour?
I think that from now on the correct reply is ‘Noob’.
