No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Stepford ‘Rats uphold another Craps veto

by @ 15:42 on January 19, 2006. Filed under Miscellaneous.

This time, it’s the Assembly ‘Rats upholding Craps’ veto of AB 766, which sought to reimpose limits on pain-and-suffering damages tossed out by the Craps’-packed State Supreme Court. The original bill passed the Assembly 64-30, with 4 paired votes and 1 non-vote. Adding the paired votes would have pushed the totals to 66-32, enough to override Craps for the first time.

However, when push came to shove, the override attempt failed 63-36. Switching their votes to put party and trial lawyers above principle were ‘Rats Chuck Benedict, Jason Fields, and Sheldon Wasserman; while ‘Rat John Steinbrink showed up this time to collect his check from the trial lawyers.

Will the last business to leave Wisconsin please tell We Energies and the other utilities to turn off the electricity; the ‘Rats and the trial lawyers weren’t using the lights they powered.
