Wheres the emergency? In Olympia, legislators can find one just about anywhere.
Already this week weve told you about legislators attaching emergency clauses to a WEA bail-out bill and bills to fund a Sonics stadium and NASCAR racetrack. Whether its building new sports stadiums or helping unions, lawmakers are acting like theres no tomorrow

But it is an emergency. If the stadium isn't built, the terrorists will have won.
