Wis. state troopers find no Democrats


Published: Thu, February 24, 2011 @ 10:36 a.m.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin state Senate sergeant at arms says Wisconsin state troopers have gone to the homes of multiple Senate Democrats but left after finding no one at home.

Troopers were sent Thursday morning to the homes of some of the 14 Senate Democrats who left town eight days ago rather than vote on a bill taking away collective bargaining rights from public workers.

Sergeant at Arms Ted Blazel says troopers knocked on the doors and looked around but left after finding no one at home. He would not say how many homes they went to.

Police can’t arrest senators but Republican Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald says he hoped the lawmakers would feel compelled to return if police showed up at their doors.

So fire the missing Senators, and hire normal everyday average folks to do their jobs, if we run from our duties we as average Americans get fired! I think a whole replacement of government with non politicians would be a benefit to our country!

"Fire them and hire" others . Wow! I guess some people dont know that State Senators arnt hired and fired. Gheesus! And--remember that using the rules regarding quorum has always been a substantial part of our democratic legislative process. Look that word up vchild.

Of course they get paid when AWOL.

saddad, you must be so proud of these Wisconson baby libs. Instead of doing what they were elected to do like adults, they run and hide like little children. Did you go hide under your bed in support? Probably wet your pants when the doorbell rang!!!

Id like all you right wingers to tell me what you know about Spain and the Spanish Civil War. My guess is that you know nothing. You tools are house slaves to the fascists. Spend one day--just one day reading about it. You fools.
Redvert-you will never understand people like me, dont even try--go back to listening to the college bust out Rush. Understand--we will take up the fight. Get your best hold sucker.

If the truth be told revert-you are not the one I speak to. You my friend are a lost cause in my estimation. Its those that can still learn that I post for here. You guys that are 20 or 30 years into their working life and still havnt made the wage your daddy did 35 years ago and want to fight for the right in this country fall into the catagory of-Some people,you just cant help.

They are deserters..... and the Army handles them the right way in war time. The Socialst Democrat party has run from responsibility each and every time they don't get their way.... shame on them. It's a shame the quorem isn't 19....then they wouldn't be missed!

Shame on the missing Democrats. Vote "No" but get back there and vote. I don't get paid if I don't work - neither should they.

They are working just how I want them to Westsider. You have a sensible opinion but you dont know politics.

So you base your thought process on a movie and two songs. Hey, whatever you think works for you.

I am glad the libs in Wisconsin are doing exactly what you want them to do. I will sign off now since the libs in Wisconsin may need to email you for more directions.

You sound like you could be Nunya's baby brother!

I understand why the billionaires and Wall Street bankers support the causes of the right and the Republican party. What confuses me is how so many whose interests are not in the least served by them get so strogly behind them. Remember all the hogwash the Repubs tried to sell us when the Dems where trying to put the economy right after it was--for the second time in 80 years- destroyed by the Republican opportunists? Remember what was said about the GM bailout. Now what do they say?
