The resolution notes that the lawmakers have "fled the state of Indiana and issued press announcements indicating that they would not return unless eleven specified bills were removed from consideration by the House of Representatives for the rest of the session..."

Although this has been reported in Indiana, the same thing is happening in Wisconsing and stating that liberals, no mather what the majority say, always find a way to push their wills.

This is simple and pure BLACKMAILING from the left that has lost Nov the 2nd elections in patent disregard for voters wills.

At the House in Washington, Boehner and his siblings like Cantor are already bending to Democrats and The Barack.

Funny, I thought blackmail was against the law. Why aren’t these people being brought up on charges? Bring them back into the state in cuffs.

pull the bills.

When the rats return, have the chamber sealed. Also seal the senate chamber No one in and no one out. Then vote on all eleven bills that same day.

“What? You wanted them pulled for the whole session? Sorry we must have misunderstood you. Oops. Our bad. Oh By the way. We won. Get used to it.”

Segue to the senate “Yep we’ll pass all eleven as written and fix anything that needs to be fixed later.”

When they left ostensibly over the right to work legislation Daniels agreed to drop it and not bring it up again this year.

Right after he did, expecting them to come back, they came up with those other 11 demands. Daniels got played like a cheap fiddle and basically gave up any chance for the Republican nomination.

Yep,Daniels blew it.

Giving in to ANY demands of the striking Democrat legislators is foolish.

I am sick and tired of Bill O'Rilley telling me that Governor Walker needs to compromise with the RATS and the Unions.

He is a pompous ass who is a legend in his own mind and takes the term "King of Cable" entirely too seriously.

That is right to work in the private sector, since Daniels outlawed public unions five years ago via executive order.

Daniels has other fish to fry and didn't want to take on the private sector unions this session.

You are correct that the demonRATS lied to him about coming back if the pubbies drooped that piece of legislation but demonRATS lying is nothing new and that doesn't look like he was played like a fiddle.

It looks like the demonRATs are getting their asses kicked, not the other way.

Well he can always put the original bill back in the process. They changed the agreement after so he can change his mind also.

Yep, and if Daniels hasn’t figured that out by now he’s got no business running for President.
