Fox Nation has learned exclusively from a highly placed source within Wisconsin state politics that the fourteen AWOL Democrats are experiencing "dissension in the ranks." State Sen. Julie Lassa (D) is pregnant and "extremely unhappy" about being on the run. State Sen. Jon Erpenbach (D) has been hit particularly hard by his paycheck being withheld.

What? Doesn’t he qualify for strike pay?

He almost sounds like a regular working stiff like me.

All these heroes need to do is close their eyes and click their ruby red slippers together and say “There’s no place like home, there’s no place like home.”

Wah. If I were to go AWOL from my job for 3 or more days... I’d be looking for a new job, not a “late, but held for me paycheck”.

Once again, the need for tea party demonstrators is highlighted by its absence. If hundreds of college students and paid union demonstrators are to flood the state house, there must be equal numbers of conservatives who flood in at the same time to confront them. The left dominates the demonstration air waves and that has to change for sanity to be returned, Some will say that this will encourage violence, but non violent tactics can be used by both sides and if violence occurs, sometimes it can't be avoided unless we are willing to lose.

If these Democrat fools think they have problems now, wait until they return to Wisconsin. They think they have the support of the American people based on a couple of left-wing, liberal tainted polls. They are sadly mistaken. And....when those planned layoff slips get into the hands of the Public Service Workers who have lost their jobs there will be hell to pay for these Democrat no shows. They think Governor Walker is going down. Forget it, their greedy union communist goons betrayed them and....anyone with half a brain knows that!!! Two things Democrats you should know & learn, elections have consequences and you failed to carry out your assignments as an elected representative of the people of Wisconsin, not the Democrat party and their socialist/communist labor unions.

Can someone explain to me why the state legislature hasn’t passed a bill declaring the seats of AWOL members to be vacant after a certain number of missed days. That would make the need for a recall moot. And it might just get the AWOL members’ butts back faster.

Judges get sweetheart health care and retirement pension plans, too.

Major conflict of interest. Education, immigration, justice - unions and their collective bargaining corrupts EVERYTHING the government does.

Identify a societal problem and unions are most likely to be at the bottom of it.

The fact that 3 are likely to be recalled probably isn’t helping matters much either :)

The “dissension” is being caused by their own personal inconveniences. Not one of them seems to care about the principles involved nor the extra money they’re costing the taxpayers due to missing refinancing deadlines.

We were there in the 1000’s last Saturday and have another rally planned for this Saturday. We have JOBS and can’t just take off extended periods of time to protest. We are winning though, because we have a Gov. who will NOT back down, and remarkably, he has been able to keep a couple RINO State Senators in line.

Keep the faith, victory is near!

No, we are busy. We have jobs and families to attend to. We do have time, however, for things like recall petitions and voting in elections.

The unwashed mob that is the protesters are only impressing those who are already sympathetic to them.Normal, responsible people are repelled by them.
