Dictionary.com defines insurrection as "an act or instance of rising in revolt, rebellion, or resistance against civil authority or an established government."
"Insurrection" aptly defines what is happening in Wisconsin.
Worse yet, the chief executive officer of the nation - President Obama - appears to tacitly approve of the insurrection. His campaign arm - Organizing for America, and the Democratic National Committee - are involved in planning and supporting the insurrection, even going so far as to bus protesters in an effort to undermine the lawful government of that state.
Thousands of protesters - many carrying signs comparing Governor Scott Walker to Adolf Hitler - stormed the Capitol in an effort to shut down the legislature. This is not a mere redress of grievance; this is outright revolt.
All 14 Senate Democrats have fled to parts unknown to prevent a vote on a bill meant to keep the state solvent.
The Wall Street Journal reports that the AWOL Democrats plan to remain out of the state until the governor caves in to their demands:
"When we go back is ultimately up to the governor's willingness to sit down and talk about this and come up with some sort of resolution," said Sen. Jon Erpenbach, who fled with 13 colleagues on Thursday to deprive Republicans of the needed quorum to pass the measure. He spoke by phone from a Chicago hotel, where he planned to stay Friday night.
But Governor Walker has had enough of the Democrats antics. According to a post at Hot Air, the Governor is playing hardball with the Senators:
The protesters have every right to have their voices heard, but Im not going to be intimidated into thinking I should ignore the voices of the five-and-a-half million taxpayers, said Republican Gov. Scott Walker

You simply sick your hand up it's jdawg2010 hole

Yep. Past time really. The states are completely cowed by the feds. Legacy of the Civil War.
Shut yer *** up boy. I have been to Fort Worth more times then you have had hot meals. Kay Bailey, Corn cob Cornyn and Rick Perry are stinking open-border RINOs aka LBJ Republicans like the Connecticut Poppy Bush clan. Ain’t nobody on the Chisolm trial was ever called Poppy.
So shut it. I get sick of these fake LBJ Republicans pretending to be conservatives.
You sound like Poppy Bush. Too many damn RINOs in the Texas LBJ republican party.
Keep pounding this point home: They’re having a hissy fit because they’re being asked to pay a portion that’s far smaller than most people pay for their taxpayer supplied medical insurance.
And just what the HELL do you know about the Texas Republican party, foreigner? You don't even live in this country!
Stick to your psychotic rants about boogey man TV, Frantzie, and leave Texas to us Texans.
Do you consider them to be worse than anti-FReepers and Truthers?
Anybody here near Fort Worth? I get by them parts for oil and gas stuff. Name a place and I’ll beat somebody like red headed step child.
The 9/11 truther gubernatorial candidate, Debra Medina, lost in the 2010 Texas GOP primary, getting less than 19% of the vote. The vast majority of Republicans in Texas recognize that truthers belong in padded cells wearing straitjackets, not in the governor's office. Maybe Frantzie's slamming of Texas is due to bitterness because his preferred GOP candidate lost.
You threatening me, chump? I can be in Fort Worth any day of the week, but I'll bet you can't.
While I'm at it, I may as well let you know that several Freepers have the goods on you. I've seen it. You're a real piece of work, you back-stabbing POS.
I knew all along that something was up with you.
Bring it on! I should be out there in about 2 months. I will keep your message.
I am back-stabbing for pointing out that Rick Perry, Kay Bailey, Cornyn and Poppy Bush are opne-border RINO Scum?
I am back stabbing RINO LBJ-Republican garbage that idiots vote for in Texas? You are messing with the wrong feller.
All hat no cattle. Votin for LBJ Republicans. About as conservative as LBJ.
I am not for truthers but Rick Perry was all for open-borders and the NA Highway and totally open borders. He is a one worlder like Poppy. You people would vote for LBJ if he ran again.
I will be here in about 2 months. Mark you calendar.

LOL!
Two months, eh? I thought you were ready to beat me "like a red headed step child" right this very minute, if I stepped one foot inside Ft Worth.
Punkass.
You ought to know better than to threaten violence against anyone on the internet. You have no earthly clue who I am, or who anyone else on this forum is. Your mouth might just be writing a check that your ass can't cash.
No matter. I've got the goods on who you really are. And yes - you really are a back-stabbing POS. I don't think "Scooter" will be too amused when he finds out.
ROFLMAO!
"You all would be better off if you listen to Alex Jones..." LOL
I’ve got some other quotes, Francine. Would you like to see them? I’m sure “scooter” and the Mods would.
