Um...for those of you who seem to be brain dead--here's a news flash. The house scheduled the vote on this bill and LIED to the Democrats about it so they missed the vote, and so there would be no room for debate on the floor. The Senate had the same thing in mind until the Democrats fled. There NEVER WAS the option of negotiating with the Republicans--thats why the Democrats left the state. GET IT NOW? The Democrats left to MAKE SURE the public had the opportunity to weigh in on the bill. They absolutely did the right thing. For as many of you radical right wingers who ramble on about supposed corruption in the democratic party--I'm a republican and this is easily one of the sleaziest things I've seen republicans do in my life time.
Exactly! If they hadn't left, some debate could have happened. Now it's too late. Too bad, so sad.
Actually, the dems left the state to allow time for a debate and negotiations to take place. Except, instead of boiling the frog slowly, Walker decided to cook his goose!
They also elected the Democratic Senators that Walker refuses to negotiate with.
Walker was elected to do a job and so were the Senators, Walker is doing his job and the Democrat Senators are refusing to do theirs because they don't like the way a vote is going to go.

Right-wing neo-cons will never read this and if they did, they won't believe it as you can tell by past and future posts. But good post nevertheless.
