I as I said linked you an article in post 29 citing those grounds saying the Democrats were considering challenging on them. As to whether it is convincing or not is up to a judge to decide and since people opposed to the bill would be bringing the complaint they get to do whatever forum shopping is available.

This is not the end of the controversy. It was a battle. The war is not over.

You cited the grounds however no one is discussing challenging it on those grounds since they don't apply here. Once again I invite you to prove me wrong.

This discussion is becoming circular, suffice it to say, this is now the law in Wisconsin and will be for some time. A huge victory for tax payers.

Yeah it pretty much is. How can you reverse the results?

From the article. (Following the cite of the constitutional provision)

"Walker clearly believes that the bill passed yesterday, which takes away various collective bargaining rights from public employees' unions, falls within the exceptions. Democrats, of course, disagree and have said they plan on challenging the law in court."

Continue reading on Examiner.com: Governor Walker admits bill is fiscal, but still claims no quorum needed (Video) - National Political Buzz | Examiner.com Governor Walker admits bill is fiscal, but still claims no quorum needed (Video) - National Political Buzz | Examiner.com

Of course this is circular for the time being because there is not enough information yet and since the law has not yet been made into law there is likely not standing yet either. With that said, I would say the Democrats may or may not have an avenue to pursue this if they want to. Furthermore, it is unclear whether or not this law will even go into effect. It is possible Democrats will go to court and ask for and get a TRO and preliminary injunction.

This controversy is over? Do you mean to tell me there will be no reaction? Do you think the situation is completely settled and resolved to everyone's satisfaction? The Democrats are just going to say "okay, we lost ... so we're just going to play dead." ???

STAY TUNED MY FRIEND!!!!!!

React all you like. We are a land of laws, not a banana republic. We don't run the country by mob rule. There is nothing you can do.

Yeah, yeah I am sure the passions will be exactly the same in 2 years. Also what platform are the Dems going to run on? We will restore collective bargaining for 10% of the population and all it will cost you is $1.4 billion!
