Remember the knee jerk reactions I was talking about in my last post?
It's a wonder these morons have any facial features left.

Well, some pissed off Democrat has made a petition, two actually, to make sure that if senators walk off the job again, they will be ineligible for re-election.
I
hope it passes so I can laugh my ass off when the balance of power
shifts again (as it always does and Republicans are once again in control of the
state senate) and Democrats decide to walk out and are rendered
ineligible to run again. Or they have to show up so that doesn't happen.
I
really don't see any other way the Republicans were going to be heard
on this one. I don't support the Republican party any more than I do the
Democrats, but I do support this walkout. It's shitty legislation that
wouldn't do a goddamn thing to help the climate. It would line the
pockets of a lot of people, which, although it's not the publicly stated
purpose, was the entire reason for the 'emergency' legislation.
I'm tired of our "representatives" here in our state.
And nationally.
I
read a lot of political stuff lately, although I'm not sure why I
bother, it's not like I can change a goddamn thing. There are one hell
of a lot of people who are feeling the same way I do.
If there were a candidate people who feel this way could actually vote for, s/he would have a pretty good chance of winning.
I am looking forward to the inevitable consequences of this petition if it passes.
Work for lawyers and judges as it gets fought in courts.
ReplyDeleteJust when I think they can't get MORE stupid, they do. It seems they've tapped into an endless supply.
DeleteInteresting. Course, a non walkout clause wouldn't actually get anything accomplished. Just make a bunch of whiny senators having a giant sleepover in the state house when they don't get their way.
ReplyDeleteI'm just completely sick of the posturing and the utter BULLSHIT put out by every fucking politician out there, regardless of party. They're all lying asswipes who don't deserve any of my respect. Shitbags. Ughhhh.
