Remember when this recall process started and a bunch of righties here were falling all over themselves laughing and claiming the Dems wouldn't even get the sigs?
That was funny.

And we are laughing harder at the lack of wisdom of the MOB Rule displayed for all to see. We are seeing the acts of petulant children that refuse meet life on terms, but rewrite it for their own self-agrandizement.
Valiant struggle...NOT. Mob Rule...YES.
They haven't got all the signatures......Nice try.Remember when this recall process started and a bunch of righties here were falling all over themselves laughing and claiming the Dems wouldn't even get the sigs?

You aren't laughing.
You're nervously peeing your pants.
And it's a joy to watch.

And actually, what's funny is the fact that in just a few short years, your brain is going to be so fried from all that dope you smoke on a daily basis, you won't even remember anything about any of this......Ya' fuckin' loser.

Really? Is there a CAM in here that *I* don't know about on my Network?
*SON*?
You're a pathetic piece of dogsqueeze...
I still fail to see the problem with the people of Wisconsin recalling their own state officials in accordance with their own laws.

Well, you know, socialism and stuff
Interesting concept of 'democracy' the democrats have. People vote, some people don't like the outcome. Recall.... all seems to be a tad against the will of the people. But I guess, to Democrats, the result only counts if they 'win'.
Shameful behavior.
And it's not in the Republicans' job description to violate Wisconsin's open meeting laws by passing a law without giving 72 hours notice.
Funny wasn't it obamas and the democrats mandate to let any bill be open for public view before any bill was to be voted on? How did that work?
Yeah they lied about that as well.
And even if they did? (Nevermind that the phone lines and emails were flooding to the Negative toward Obamacare)?
They did it anyway. The ultimate arrogance, the ultimate INSULT.
And why they LOST the House.
You're clueless. Both of you.Speaker Blog | Speaker of the House John Boehner | speaker.gov
Posting all bills online for public viewing at least three days before a vote: The days of quickly ramming massive bills through Congress - such as the stimulus that didnt work and the job-killing national energy tax - are over. Under the new rules, the House will post all bills online at least three calendar days before a vote, giving lawmakers, the public, and the media a chance to read each proposal and understand its impact.
ThinkProgress » On Budget Deal, House Republicans Once Again Prepare To Break Their Own 72-Hour Rule
When Republicans took over the House in January, Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) promised the public, I will not bring a bill to the floor that hasnt been posted online for at least 72 hours.
House Republicans are set to break that promise tomorrow afternoon when they push through a vote on the budget deal reached last Friday with Senate Democrats and President Obama. The agreement, which has been criticized by both progressive and Tea Party members of Congress, was posted online last night at 2 am, and is set to be voted on tomorrow at 2 pm leaving less than 36 hours for public review.
Its not the first time Republicans have waived the transparency rules they passed in January to move contentious legislation through the House. Last month, House Republicans debated and voted on a bill defunding NPR more than twenty hours before the review period had even ended.

Wisconsin recall drive continues to make history - The Plum Line - The Washington Post
Wisconsin recall drive continues to make history
By Greg Sargent
In the entire history of the state of Wisconsin, organizers have only managed to trigger recall elections four times.
Today, Dems are set to file the signatures they need for the recall election of their fourth Wisconsin GOP state senator this year: Sheila Harsdorf. Graham Zielinski, a spokesman for the Wisconsin Democratic Party, tells me Dems will submit over 23,000 signatures nearly 150 percent of the 15,744 required.
Dems have already submitted the signatures required for recall elections against state senators Dan Kapanke, Randy Hopper, and Luther Olsen.
Heres what this means. Presuming all four elections take place which they all but certainly will, given the massive amounts of signatures gathered in all four cases Dems will have matched the amount of recalls triggered in the states whole previous history in less than a year.
Thats as clear a demonstration as you could want of the grassroots energy unleashed by Scott Walkers overreach, and of the organizing successes of his opponents.
Republicans have less than a week until the deadline for their signatures to trigger recall elections against Dems. They have not yet submitted any.
You recall people are like birthers, LOL!

This is why nothing ever changes. When the government does act financially responsible, the socialist will move to protect their perks. They choose to not look at the fact, we can't afford them anymore.
So how do you explain the recall in California?
A fourth WI Republican senator is now up for recall.
Sides ready for recall of Sen. Harsdorf - Leader-Telegram: Leader Telegram
West-central Wisconsin Democrats say they have succeeded in gathering more than enough signatures to force a recall election of state Sen. Sheila Harsdorf this summer.
Harsdorf, of rural River Falls, is one of eight Republican senators targeted for their support of what Democrats call Gov. Scott Walker's radical agenda, including his budget repair bill that curtails collective bargaining rights for most of the state's roughly 300,000 public workers.
After holding celebrations across the district Monday evening, recall organizers plan a vehicle caravan drive to Madison today to file the signatures with the Government Accountability Board, said Bob Salt, chairman of the Dunn County Democratic Party.
The board, which oversees elections in the state, has indicated 15,744 signatures - a quarter of the votes cast in the most recent gubernatorial election - are required to trigger a recall election in Harsdorf's 10th Senate District, but Salt said organizers collected about 20,000 since March 2, just to be safe.
"Collecting 20,000 signatures in that short of a time with all volunteers is an amazing accomplishment," an elated Salt said Monday, adding that more than 6,200 were submitted by Menomonie organizers plus another 2,000 or so from UW-Stout.
Democracy in Action? Like fleeing the state and bastardizing the political process generally, or democracy in action like breaking and entering to thwart the recall process?

To be a lib with great ideals but zero heart to back it up. Must make life easy.
No more undemocratic than a filibuster.
A filibuster is a permissible and recognized political action.
Fleeing the state you swore an oath to represent, not permissible.
Breaking and entering is not in the same league as filibustering. I feel sorry for you that I have to point that out.
My God. At least pretend to have some sort of higher order thinking skills going on. I would be embarrassed if I had the retorts that you present.
Flee instead of standing up and fighting for what they thought was right.
Funny, I think what they did WAS standing up and fighting. Instead of taking things lying down, they really pushed the issue by forcibly delaying the vote. They left the state to prevent a quorum, and in doing so helped to force the opposition to wait longer; their whole intention all along was to buy more time. They could have taking things lying down. They could have just gone into the office, accepted that things weren't going to go the way they wanted, and could have written it off. Nobody would have thought less of them. But that was not enough. They weren't ready to give up yet. They elevated the battle to the next level. Disagree with their position all you want, but the real absence of honor is anyone who would be so dishonest as to say that these people failed to stand up and fight or that they abandoned their duty. They saw their duty to their constituents through moreso than most politicians would have the stomach to risk doing.
I'm in for recalling obama, does that mean he will be removed from office?
