Can you imagine the media outrage if it was a bunch of Republicans that left the state to avoid doing their job?

The Democrats who left the state to avoid their duties should be forced from office.

That will be up to the voters in 2012, who I hope are as sick of this as we are.

“Look for the Union Label” is a well-remembered song, by a labor union that began in New York City. The song encouraged people to “look for the union label” and buy garments “made in the U.S.A.”

The song was popular, but most garments are made overseas today, from countries such as China.

I called, “sorry ma’am, we don’t have any of the senators staying here”.

LOL, calling back from another phone.

I asked for Tim Cullen and the operator said. “We don’t have a Tim Cullen here.”

Heh, called a second time and asked for any Wisconsin state senator staying there. I was told this time that “it would be against privacy laws” and when I asked “what privacy laws” she hung up on me.

She hung up on me now too. I’m going to keep dialing though! I’ve gotten two different people - a male and female. The female is having a bad day - you can hear it in her voice. It’s just too bad because I plan on being a pest for a while!

The Democrats were found to have left the state and are partying at a resort,

...They quit their jobs..they don’t want to do their jobs

Now replace them Governor!

We will have to have an early election to replace them, but we need interim replacements in the mean time.

If they traveled on state money they should be arrested and charged with theft.

Problem is many of these toads are in districts that agree with them. Remember Wisconsin is a cesspool of communists, progressives, socialists and liberals. Look at our history, our mayors, governors, congresscritters, etc... The progressive movement was born in Madison. Madison is home to some of the elite when it comes to global warming, carbon credits, the CCX, etc... The unions are thick and the constituents are thick as well. To have what happened with the legislature and the Governor’s office was a momumental task, and will be hard to hold and repeat. I think it can be done, but don’t discount the outright stupidity and greed of those that live off the government teet here in the dairy state (inner city, farmers, ethanol plants, teachers, public unions, politicians, etc...).
