Thanks for the ping, Ming!

I prefer to call them "Fleas." And I'll believe they're coming home when they cross the border.

Wouldn't a change in a Senate "rule" have to be voted on Session? Since this is something the Lt. Governor can change at will, sounds more like a tradition. One which has been deferred by other (Dem) Lt. Governors.

The difference between this time and the last time the blocker bill was dropped is that the Dems don't want to play if they don't know in advance that they will come out on top. Republicans would never have left the State to break a quorum.

And they wouldn't play footsie with known associates of the Communist Party of the USA, either.

I think the 'RATS don't have much choice on coming back. Supposedly they are coming back Wednesday night for the Thursday 3 judge hearing. They will get a bloody nose that day.

The 'RATS and the media keep spinning this story that it is the GOP that is setting a 'precedent' of dropping the blocker bill 2/3rds thing. It's a big LIE ! The 'RATS did it in 1992 and most of the media don't even MENTION that ! G-r-r-r !!

Yep ... the GOP would NEVER break quorum. The GOP has NO ties to the Communist Party like the 'RATS do ...

Oh, and I might as well link the latest news here, eh ?? ...
