As of this writing, Wisconsin Democrats are still hiding out in Illinois in an attempt to block a vote on a bill to curtail the collective bargaining rights (privileges?) of state employees. Predictably, the rhetoric continues to fly.

Wisconsin Senate Democratic leader Mark Miller said Wednesday Democrats will "join the people of Wisconsin in taking back their government," but he refused to say when.- - FoxNews / AP

If Miller wishes to “join the people of Wisconsin,” he can start by returning to work and doing the job he was elected to do. He can face the fact that his party is in the minority, and by extension the people who voted for him and his party are also in the minority.

Some Freepers fuss at me on occasion because I'm insufficiently partisan for the Right (you know who you are). I'm thinking this one will atone. :-) If there is one thing I hate, it's people who expect to get paid even when they don't show up for work.
