derelict Senators could be charged with a Class 1 felony

That's excellent news. Things are getting out of control enough that this sort of thing needs to be punished severely and made very unpleasant for anyone engaging in these marxist tactics.

Does anyone know where the Demos are holding out?

An "undisclosed location" somewhere near the capitol. I think they are not out of state anymore but I do NOT know for sure. There is so much conflicting information out there and the media is helping them hide.

Maybe this thread can help pull together scattered information and we can get to the bottom of some of this stuff.

A quorum is 20. There are 19 republicans. They need at least one democrat to pass any financial bills.

It would be nice if ALL the Democrats left the COUNTRY!!!

Maybe this will set a trend.

They can go to Egypt or Great Britain. They wouild be happier there. I think even the Russian Federation is too “conservative” for them. After all, they rejected Communism.

At what point are the Senators considered unfit to carry out their duties and relieved?

If someone was really sick or in surgery for weeks on end they would be booted out of the position no?

I heard a radio report claiming that since the Wisconsin State Patrol members belong to a union, they would not be doing a very thorough job of trying to find any Rat Senator who is in hiding out there. No way to confirm that obviously.

Thank you for starting this thread...needed a place to vent!

Watching these spoiled brat union leaches & rent-a-mob protesters in Wisconsin makes me so mad I could spit!

It's time for the productive segment of the population to put a stop to this crap! The country has been bled to near death by these parasites and we're running out of time to save the Republic. What are we waiting for?!

Light the torches and break out the pitchforks! LET'S ROLL!

I say keep them away for at least 60 days.
In the mean time,

1)pass every other single non-quorum legislation that can be passed.
2) start a recall petition for the closest 3 to 4 senators from the last election. You only need 25% of the total vote from last election to recall
3) Turn off their state cell phones, withhold their salaries, withhold their staff funding, cancel their per diem, etc
4) have session every single day and pass one more rule / law that you know will just piss them off.

I’m sad to say that this sounds like step 1 of “compromise.”

Thank you sooo much- I was getting DIZZY from all the threads.

I am trying to understand how it’s legal (clearly it’s not ethical) for a president of the United States to send out his own political organization (Organizing for America) to stop a vote in a STATE legislature.

This is mindboggling:
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0211/49804.html

Also- for what it’s worth- a poll shows 64% of the country is against unions for public employees. And there’s info here also for the rally to support Gov. Walker tomorrow:
