The headline just ticks me off. It’s like a one line editorial.

Activist libturd judges, don't you just love them? Forget about that “upholding the law or state's constitution” nonsense, throw in your own agendas and pound that square peg into that round hole until it fits.
Another liberal waste of $5 worth of chemicals.

the senate makes it’s own rules, not the judiciary.
the judge is wrong. the law is on the side of the legislature.
I think more states will be copying Walker. ( if they have any serious interest in remaining solvent.)

I posted it because I did a search to see what sort of recent news existed on the Minnesota TRO. This was the only item I found that wasn't five days old or more.

I meant to say "the Wisconsin TRO," of course.

I recall one article where they said the Senate got advice from several non-partisan sources, and they agreed that there was no need for a 24 hour open meeting notice because of the existing situation.

Gov. Walker should simply ignore the ruling and implement the law as it stands. After all, if 0bama can ignore a federal judge's ruling of 0bamacare as being unconstitutional, what's the harm in Gov. Walker doing the same thing at the state level?
Or, better yet, reinstate the layoffs that he previously rescinded.

This is so obviously a case of legislating from the bench that I don’t see how the WI Pubs can avoid submitting a bill of impeachment.

And that “nobody” is the union.

AGREED. But no, GOP plays by all the rules and takes the high road, all the while the RAT party plays down and dirty in the mud. What is the first thing the RAT party does when it loses - runs lickity split to the men in black and they shop for one of their own.

Oh, I wasn’t blaming you, I was ticked at the Liberal news source. You have to post ‘em as you find ‘em. Please don’t take it as a criticism.

What a completely biased article. The fact that the Democrats lie so strenuously about this issue should seriously undermine their credibility.
I spent an hour this morning reading Wisconsin’s 2008 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (courtesy of Diana in Wisconsin), trying to determine whether the state employees’ benefits program is a closed, self-funding program like CalPERS in California. Unfortunately, I was overwhelmed by the numbers and by terms I didn’t understand, and couldn’t come to a conclusion. I did notice a few columns titled “Unfunded Liability,” which I think means the program was short on funds. Does the government have to pay any shortfalls? Anyone know?

This, in effect, obviates the need for two of the three branches of government in our established system. It establishes the precedent that we need two branches of government: the pure democracy of the people and the judiciary to tell the people when we have erred. If judges continue to be allowed to legislate from the bench and to over-ride the executive and legislative branches, they have too much power. Somehow, this tradition has taken hold in our legal system and our system of government. Remove them.

I wonder if there is some way to word the legislation to the effect that the “State law shall comport with the Federal law regarding issues of rights for public employees to unionize”. In other words, is there a way to word it so that de facto the result is the same but the spotlight turns on the hypocrisy of how the Federal public employee bargaining laws are not being protested while Obama and minions snort around at the Wisconsin Republicans?
