Fleebaggers Get Fined

It's getting even more expensive to run from your obligations:
The 14 Wisconsin state Senate Democrats who left the state two weeks ago will now face fines of $100 for each day they miss, if they miss two or more days.

Republicans remaining in the Senate approved the daily fine on Wednesday morning with none of the Democrats present.

The Democrats left Wisconsin in order to delay indefinitely a Republican-backed bill taking away collective bargaining rights from public employees.

The resolution passed on Wednesday also requires the missing Democrats to reimburse the Senate for any costs incurred during attempts to force them to return. Their salary and other per diem payments can be withheld until they pay back the penalties and costs.
It sounds like the Fleebaggers are beginning to wilt and realize the longer they stay away the sillier they look. I'm expecting this whole thing to end rather soon.

And in a new poll Rasmussen says 67% disapprove of fleeing the state the way the Fleebaggers in Wisconsin and Indiana have done.

Challenge the validity of the fleebaggers' voter registrations on grounds that they may no longer reside in the state. At some point, their continued absence will become problematic under the statute defining the residency requirements for maintaining one's status as a properly registered voter. In every jurisdiction and aware of, if you're not a registered voter, then you aren't qualified to hold ANY elective office. There may be no recourse if, as in this case, one's own actions precipitate one's disqualification as a voter – and, therefore, disqualification from membership in the state Senate.
