WI Sen. Majority Leader Fitzgerald says Dems will also face reprimand, censure or expulsion

[highplainsdem]

After they're dragged back against their will, of course.

This guy really missed his calling, and his proper historical time. Real Gestapo material here.

-snip-

The order to arrest the senators does not cross state lines, but Fitzgerald says he's confident the Dems have been going back and forth from their homes here to Illinois. He said any individual who spots the senators can call law enforcement to have them apprehended.

Fitzgerald said the move has "nothing to do" with the budget repair bill, but the fact that the governmental process "has been ground to a halt by members of our own body abdicating their responsibility."

The order will be in effect 24 hours a day, seven days a week, Fitzgerald said.

When the Dems return, Fitzgerald said punishments for the Dems may be considered, including :reprimand, censure or expulsion. "The same things that have been discussed in other legislative bodies through the years for actions that certainly are a violation of both Senate rule and statute and in violation of the constitution."

1. Expulsion?

They were elected by fellow citizens. This will be fun

[Matariki]

17. I was wondering about that too. WTF?

[TomClash]

20. My first thought

So much for the voters.

[Major Hogwash]

27. He wants them to come back so he can throw them out. Hahahahaha!!!! What a loon!

"What are they going to do, send us to Vietnam?"

Man, if there were ever a time for them to stay the hell out of Wisconsin, this is it!

[Jackpine Radical]

2. Would it be illegal to flood the Polizei with false sightings?

[mike_c]

7. look!, officer-- the democratic senators are UP WALKER'S BUTT!

:rofl:

[DearAbby]

31. Everyone should call in Sighting reports

:evilgrin:

OFFICER, the Democratic Senators are in my walk in closet, please come and remove them.

[malaise]

13. That would be hilarious

:rofl:

[murielm99]

14. I suppose some lawless individuals could find ways

to do this anonymously. (Wink, wink).

[socialist_n_TN]

34. I think that the RIGHT thing to do would be to..........

flood the State Troopers with false ANONYMOUS sightings. Keep them running around amd wasting time and money. Illegal, probably. The ethical thing, assuredly.

[HopeHoops]

3. "And, and, and, they're POOPIE HEADS, and, and, and, DUMMYFACES, and, and..."

:eyes:

[WolfoftheWild]

4. they don't see the edge of the cliff rapidly approaching...

[sakabatou]

5. Bullies and fascists

[SDuderstadt]

6. What Fitzgerald is doing is...

stupid and patently offensive. That hardly makes him the equivalent of the Gestapo.

Unrecced for gratuitously stupid Nazi comparison.

[Poboy]

10. Recommended!

[pscot]

28. Bat shit insane too

[socialist_n_TN]

35. Yep. He hasn't set up the Wisconsin death camps............

so this just CAN'T be fascist. :sarcasm:

[SDuderstadt]

37. Dude...

maybe you should study the history of the Third Reich, so you know what the fuck you're talking about.

[wryter2000]

8. Wryter2000 says

If Fitzgerald does this, he'll face a recall.

[highplainsdem]

21. And he should.

[county worker]

9. It would be cool if they could hold out until the repubs are recalled!

[Raven]

11. This is no longer a spectator sport, this is our Democratic Republic

run amok. We should be very worried about this.

15. Next he will send them to the Gulag as political dissenters.

[reformist2]

16. My God. Why won't the Repugs give up on crushing the teachers unions!

They are insane.

[postulater]

18. And he'll hold his breath until his face turns red!

[highplainsdem]

22. LOL

[reformist2]

19. We need to set up a national network of safehouses for them!

[BlueIris]

23. If they weren't willing to risk it, they would never have left.

It's what REAL statesman do.

[Major Hogwash]

24. What, no stonings? No firing squads at dawn? What a wimp! Seriously, he should put on his man pants!

And make more ludicrous statements while standing tall in his high chair.

My son used to do that all of the time, and then he'd throw the bowl of Spaghettios on the floor!!
He knew how to throw a fit.

[ProfessionalLeftist]

25. And nary a word about this Gestapo-like operation from the

corprat-pwn3d lame$tream media eh?

[Recursion]

26. Yeah... the Gestapo didn't do many legislative explusions

They were more the "kick your door down, shoot you and your family in the face" kind of operation.

[southernyankeebelle]

29. The Nazi apparently immigrated to WI and the republican Party

[SDuderstadt]

30. Oh, for Pete's sake...

overheated rhetoric makes us Dems look every bit as stupid as it does the GOP.

[Dappleganger]

32. What constitution?

Do you mean the one which your governor Walker has shat upon repeatedly?

[Bandit]

33. I would bet this asshole never opened his mouth when Republicans kept a permanent

filibuster going in the US Senate. It is just fine for republicans to grind Government to a halt but not for Democrats to do so..

[maxrandb]

36. Do you think he'll put them on "Double Secret Probation"?

[Arkana]

38. So...they're going to call them names and kick them out of the treehouse?

[Stuart G]

39. I wonder what kind of coverage this idiot is getting in Wisconsin??

Anyone know?????
