(10,176 posts)We're stuck with Robin Vos, who is damn near a Chauncey Gardner idiot, and some hideous teabagger hangovers. I don't even remember most of their names. What's the point if we can't get rid of them no matter what we do?
They want to force our excellent Governor, Tony Evers, to go against their jingoist bullshit to make him look bad because he's very popular here.

Its not a requirement each day Congress opens for business. Seems we should start there. Forced attendance.
