My humble apologies for mis-spelling a word.
But that little put-down attempt does not alter the fact is that I do indeed recognize politicians who stand up for the rights of their constituents. That’s an easy one,…even for someone who can’t spell ‘shirked’. They’re the ones who showed up for work…at their place of work, and did what they were elected to do. That, is done from the halls of the capitol in Madison, Wisconsin. What they did was childish…not heroic. In the real world that ‘fabulous fourteen’ would be the ‘fired fourteen’.
Why not try that type of stunt where you work…let me know how that pans out.

And I apologize in advance for anything in this post that might be mis-spelled.

First, it’s “shirked”, not “shurked”. And the Fabulous WI 14 were doing their job, but I guess you don’t recognize politicians who stand up for the rights of their constituents!

Nice article Jason, you certainly leave no doubt as to where your loyalties are.
I love how the Republicans are called to the carpet for their questionable Ethics, Morals, Planting agitators, their ‘Divisive Anti-Union bill’, Political tactics, Abuse of state resources, and so on.
Good thing we have some wonderfully moral, ethical and upright Democrats to help offset all this corruption from the other side. You know the kind who lie about their identity to attempt to trick someone to say something in an assumed private conversation under false pretenses…yes how honorable indeed. Or, of course the 14 dedicated patriots who walked off their job, shurked their responsibilities as legislators, cowardly fled the state going on the lam, hiding out in Illinois, and apparently funding their little vacation with campaign funds….nope, nothing to see there…completely ethical, why even down right honorable I guess.
In fact those escapades are simply referred to as “their time in Illinois”….Oh, by the way those ethics charges are also conveniently, and quietly dismissed. Hmmmm.
