Wisconsin Democrats Throw Tantrum!
Leave State
Avoid Adult Responsibilities
Prefer a Game of Hide and Seek Instead
From AP story in Yahoo News by Scott Bauer, Dems missing from Wis. Capitol ahead of union vote
MADISON, Wis. – Police officers were dispatched Thursday to find Wisconsin state lawmakers who had apparently boycotted a vote on a sweeping bill that would strip most government workers of their collective bargaining rights.
The lawmakers, all Democrats in the state Senate, did not show up when they were ordered to attend a midday vote on the legislation.
The proposal has been the focus of intense protests at the Statehouse for three days. As Republicans tried to begin Senate business Thursday, observers in the gallery screamed “Freedom! Democracy! Unions!”
For decades Democrat Lawmakers gave state and municipal unions what ever they asked for. Now the huge benefit and retirement packages the union workers enjoy threaten to bankrupt state and local governments. The adults try to reign in spending and he kids (democrats) throw a tantrum and dissappear. Then the kids call in their union thugs to protest the decisions being made by the adults to save the state from bankrupcy
The unsustainable laibilities of union benefits and pensions are bankrupting the states all over the nation. What do the democrats do, they high tail it out of town so they don’t have to face the reality of their failed ideology. Typical, just typical!
