GOP Babies and lawless militias take Oregon hostage over Cap & Trade bill

[Tahuyaman]

Not uncommon, but horribly immature no matter who does it. Their constituents elected them to BE there. Don't like the fact that you're outnumbered on an issue that most of the people in your state want? Then make your case and change their opinion.

Have you ever complained about it when It was used in the past?

Send the State Troopers Kate - Most of these a-holes are hold up in Idaho.

SALEM, Ore. — The president of the Oregon Senate ordered the state Capitol to close on Saturday due to a "possible militia threat" from right-wing protesters as a walkout by Republican lawmakers over landmark climate change legislation dragged on.

Republican state senators fled the Legislature — and some, the state — earlier this week to deny the majority Democrats enough votes to take up the climate bill, which would dramatically reduce fossil fuel emissions by 2050. It would be the second program of its kind in the nation after California if passed.

Gov. Kate Brown then dispatched the state police to round up the rogue lawmakers, but none appeared in the Capitol on Friday and the stalemate seemed destined to enter its third day with a week left in the legislative session.

For the record "Stars and Stripes" is a dead center, unbiased website.

It's a "COUP" - and if the governor sends troopers, "HELL is comin' to visit you!!"

Gee, another leftist loon policy that would dramatically hurt the poor. You know, the people libs pretend to care about?

Of course this is the typical democrat tactic so democrats whining about it is funny to watch. Democrats tried to push this through as an emergency. Other bills can be overturned by referendum but not emergency bills. Nothing like pushing an emergency bill based on mass hysteria over something that they don't even understand.

An "emergency" global warming hysteria bill when nobody's ever shown that climate change is anything but natural processes and nor have they shown climate change to be harmful in any way?

With all the hysteria based on the least likely computer model RCP8.5 and not on observed science since this is supposed to happen in the future. Wouldn't know that listening to the hysteria.

So it's okay for liberals to do that in Wisconsin, but not for taxpayers in Oregon.

Yes, I have ...

But I don't recall any Bundy Bunch Barrel-Stroking Nutbars threatening to shoot state troopers if they came to round up any Dems on the lam.

That's your team

Nobody except 97% of peer-reviewed geologists, climate scientists and NASA.

But we get it that deniers prefer the pseudo science of TeeVee weathermen and Halliburton scientists.
