Now that I know all of this can be done through non-appropriations bills (which do not require a 2/3 quorum), I cant help but think that the GOP is NOT serious about getting this, or any other of the things that could be done, actually done.

We are being “treated” to political street theater, and this makes me even more angry.

Didn’t the Democrats pull the same crap in California a few years ago and they pretty much won if I recall. I wonder how things will play out this time.

Simple way to handle it would be to do what companies in the private sector do.

Our company has a policy of automatic termination for three consecutive days of unexcused absences.

Declare their seats vacant and call a special election.

Escape From Behind the Cheddar Curtain

Let me tell you what’s actually happening in Wisconsin, in my “humble” opinion.

The Wisconsin legislature is the representative body of the citizens of the state. They elect representatives on a local level to act on their behalf at the state level. When a state representative or senator acts in an official capacity, he or she is doing so as a representative of the people who elected them. This is why we say we in the US have a “representative” republic form of government.

When state representatives or senators play tricks in order to prevent the legislature from doing its business, they are denying the voters of the state of Wisconsin the right to Constitutionally-required representation in their government.

The people voted and put these members in the state legislature. Those people did so in order to have representation at the state level. And as a result those representatives and senators are duty-bound to allow the business of the state…the business of the citizens of that state…to go forward.

By leaving the state to prevent the Wisconsin Senate from being able to have a quorum those Democrat senators involved prevented the citizens from having their rightful votes carried through to legislation in the Senate by their representatives; they denied the citizens of Wisconsin…all the citizens…from the right to due representation.

This outrageous act of defiance is not an act against the Governor, nor against any or all of the other members of the legislature. It’s an act against the citizens, and against the concept of representative government. Certainly, this is one of the most un-American acts I’ve witnessed from a group of elected officials I’ve seen in my lifetime.

Kind of like what happened in Oklahoma a few years back when all the Dems headed out of state to delay a vote on something like immigration reform IIRC. Gutless Slimeballs all of them.

That mutt is my state senator unfortunately. I just called his office and asked why he was not at the capitol and avoiding the bedlam going on there.
He should be kicked out of office as with the other rats that fail to do their duty. I don’t show for work- I get fired..
I just watched on the local tv news a state senator live on camera sitting in Chicago stating he wouldn’t return until the “Situation” changes
My kids are out another day because of this C..P
