    In the military thats considered AWOL and there are big repercussions regardless if the individual is doing what they think is the right thing. I think what the democrats have done is absurd. And its about time this is happening.

    I know of some union members who have pulled no-shows. They received a verbal warning. Don't do it again or we'll give you another verbal warning.

    They're doing their jobs.

    The resolution is a farce and sounds as if the Republicans are getting ready to saddle up a posse and use deadly force.

    No they are not. They are violating the will of the voters by not showing up to debate and vote on legislation.

    No...they are doing what they were elected to do... in this case, stop the Republicans from screwing over teachers and vindictively pass a law that is in all likelihood unconstitutional.
