Take it with a grain of salt. This was just a Senate committee vote and the stupid GOP allowed the out of state RATS to vote via facsimile!!!

No one intelligent enough to turn off the fax machine?

This is hardball?

They should be pushing through a voter ID bill as I type this. The GOP is blowing this opportunity.

I love to see Republicans learning how to fight. Now cancel their Dem's state credit cards so they can't charge their hotel rooms on them and have to pay for them with their own depleting bank accounts.

This is great! I wonder... if there were two Dem senators in committee to vote against it, why wasn’t there a quorum at that time?

Anyway, there’s a quorum when they show up to get paid. I love it!

Its a start, although I am sure the Daley machine in Chicago is funneling them all of the money they could ever want...

Back in the 70’s we used to get paid by check in the Coast Guard. We had an E-3 go AWOL but he showed up on payday to get his check. Busted! Maybe this will work.

From your keyboard to Walker’s ear. I am so tired of the pansy Republicans.

Perfectly acceptable.

You do not show up for work, you do not get paid.

The legislature could pass any non financial law that they want to.

Hey how about making English the official state language.

It never fails, a new face comes along and does some things that are conservative and people start hyping him/her for POTUS.

Remember Scott Brown?

Now, I’m not comparing Brown and Walker but some wanted Brown on the presidential ticket. What a joke.
