Wisconsin GOP get drunk, pass budget

"Dale Kooyenga (R-Brookfield) and other legislators took advantage of a "credible bomb threat" which evacuated the Capitol on Wednesday afternoon during the Assembly floor session. GOP lawmakers, who were officially "on the clock" moved across the street from the Capitol to openly slug beer at sidewalk taverns (presumably paying for drinks with their taxpayer-funded per diems). They returned to the statehouse, some of them visibly intoxicated, to pass Scott Walker's 2015 budget."

Inflation in 2014 was 0.8%. So revenues skyrocketed as much as 1.6%.

You have to be drunk to believe the trickle down bullshit he is parroting.

Which he is both.

continue voting against their own economic interests. The sad truth is they DON'T really know what kind of people these Republicans are they elect. Because I'd be willing to BET that the media didn't pick this up.
