HARRISBURG — The new session of the Pennsylvania Senate got off to a chaotic start Tuesday, with Republicans refusing to seat a Democratic senator whose election victory has been certified by state officials.

Sense RU getting my reply here?
Finally the stupid party understands how to fight at the state and local level.

Thank you, Karen. That comment section has become dormant. Is it so wrong that someone wants to get the discussion going again?

The Pubs have nowhere to hide now. They, on both the national and state level, had better show some strength and resolve or its over for them. People are sick and tired of their weakness, stupidity and appeasement.
Agreed
The reposts are sometimes worthwhile exercises.
Interesting.
I did search and got nothing.
FR seems slow tonight, too...
Maybe another hack attack in progress ?
I remembered seeing the article somewhere...
Went looking to find it, not to post it, but assuming it was linked here on FR. But I could not locate it. Thought it very odd it would NOT be here... so searched the web and found it... didn’t know if it was the same... searched again and it wasn’t there.
Just searched again... and neither instance, including the one I just posted, shows up in my search.

Incredible...might just be my configuration of opening to the news forum with brevity set to full, but the previously posted Inquirer article with the identical title was at the very bottom of the page.
Search is not perfect. We all get some “false positives”.
FReegards.
Simply posting a comment in the original thread will give it a bump.
Of course that depends on each FReeper’s configuration settings; “newest comments” vs. “newest posts”.
