Hope the threatened veto of the restaurant capacity bill (which today cleared both chambers with strong majorities) doesn't meet the same fate.

My suspicion is that since the courts have rendered the spectator capacity limits null the Dems didn't want to make this bill the hill to die on.

Maybe they will grow a pair for the restaurant bill!

Nope. You actually want this to happen again.

People will not stop voting Democrat until they feel the pain Democrats cause.

To paraphrase John Kerry “I voted for the sports before I voted against the sports”.

Why they heck do they need 202 people in the PA state legislature? California only has 80.

Their (PA) legislature has a GOP majority. California’s doesn’t. Also remember that PA once was a much larger state than CA.

Hey you idiot Pennsylvanians, if you want this bull crap to cease, just freakin’ IGNORE Wolf’s illegal and unconstitutional orders. What the hell is he going to do? Arrest millions of people?

To quote Scranton’s favorite son, “C’mon, man.”

Nothing better than the threat of death to you, your family, and your friends...

That has always (at least in my lifetime) been an important communist/democrat strategy...

Sick of these democrats. Tomorrow night our Tea Party is having an event in Hellertown with Sheriff David Clark & it has to be in a park. It gets dark so early. Hoping they will have good lighting.

Are there Democrat voters who are unhappy about the shutdown?

I think Wolf took away someone’s liquor license who opened.

What’s really disturbing is that they can take away your freedoms without any debate or vote, but there has to be a vote to get them back.

Don't forget that the pissant State of New Hampshire has 400 members in their house. You can look it up.

Pennsylvania has discussed reducing the size of our legislature, but has never gotten anywhere. I think it is part of the psyche at least in the original 13 that we expect to know our legislators, especially in New England but only somewhat diminishing as you move southward.

In California 80 crazy liberals is all they need.
