Guess we'll just disagree.



I missed your daily anger and self-rightous indignation over the past two years of Senate Republicans filibustering just about everything
So you consider filibustering the same as the actions the Senate Democrats in WI have taken? Fleeing the state, not showing up for your job, and not representing your constituents is the same as a filibuster? So every time a party disagrees with another they should just flee to Canada or in this case IL until the other party gives in? They should hold the state or the country hostage and not allow business to be conducted until they get their way. I do not see how that is considered democracy, but what do I know I didn't consult twitter or wikipedia
