Uh oh: Wisconsin board ratifies six recall elections against GOP — but delays ruling on Dems « Hot Air

It's a good thing the IRS doesn't work this way. Imagine if tax returns only got sent to people that the government got around to and once a deadline was reached they just stopped working on all the others.
Why haven't these boards been forced to work on a first in first out basis? Whatever petition was filed first should be worked on first.

Actions have consequences. Walker's turn is coming next to be recalled. I can't wait.

That's a misleading and far stretched tread title if i've ever seen one. Gotta love it's a republican controlled state but it's "democrat" tricks. Though if you use far right sites like hot air it's not surprising,...
The dems made sure they got at least 125% of the signatures needed to pass the recalls, which they did easily. The right barely was able to sneak past with 100% at the last minute for only three democrats, and did have to resort to dirty tricks of signing dead people and bribing people with drinks at bars to sign the petitions.

This may be the first time I've ever linked to the Washington Times.

Quote:
Three Democratic senators also face possible recalls, but the GAB, citing “numerous factual and legal issues” on the recall petitions for Jim Holperin of Conover, Robert Wirch of Pleasant Prairie and Dave Hansen of Green Bay, postponed discussions to next week.

So basically Democrats only support WI citizens exercising their right to a recall if the politician being recalled is a Republican... got it.
