Just love the teacher with the ‘impeach Bush’ sign. I sure would love to have that teacher teach my children.
Yes these are the botards that people worry about. Idiots that could never ever make it in the real job market and have found a way to skate off with a few million dollars at age 55 without ever investing one single cent. Have you ever seen a GOOD government employee? Think about it. Really? One that you would hire to do a job? I doubt it.
None of those people look like they are “sick” today... :P
Poor union teacher, probably wasn’t given a grant to purchase new sign-making materials to he just had to make-do with the old “Impeach Bush” one.
I wonder why no state has passed a law to fine legislators for intentionally leaving their jobs like the Rats in the Peoples Republik of Madisthan have done? Suggest $1000 per day or partial day they are absent. Aren’t they causing a gov’t shut-down?
And what about the poor kiddies who aren’t getting their free breakfasts and lunches at the schools that are closed? Will Republicans be assused of child neglect now?
This isn't the first time a political body has had such a rule, but it makes me wonder -- if by some miracle, every single republican candidate won election, does that mean they couldn't do any work in the Senate, because they wouldn't have a democrat to call quorum?
And what if there is also a green party, or a libertarian, or some other such candidate? Do each political party get the same right to block a quorum, or is it enshrined only to the two major parties?
I understand the genesis of such rules--to stop a tyrannical majority from secretly calling only their side to the chamber, and then holding a vote before the minority gets a chance to show up.
But the rule then should be that, in the absense of a minority member, all votes must be held for X hours; thus giving the minority ample time to show up.
Impeach Bush!?! ROFLOL!
You filthy little taxpayers fork it over and shut up!
