Wisconsin: Scott Walker is whistling Dixie

http://cognidissidence.blogspot.com/2014/05/scott-walker-is-whistling-dixie.html


This afternoon, at the Wisconsin republican convention, the confederates will be voting on whether Wisconsin should secede from the rest of the United States and be our own sovereign nation.

...

Nine Republican members of the Wisconsin Legislature say they would back a bill to arrest any federal officials who attempt to implement President Obama's signature health care law in the state.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the nine state lawmakers told the Tea Party-aligned Campaign For Liberty that they support authorizing "state and local law enforcement to arrest federal officials attempting to implement the unconstitutional health scheme known as Obamacare."

One of the nine lawmakers backing Campaign for Liberty's proposal is state representative Chris Kapenga (R-Delafield), who told the Journal Sentinel that he believes the health care law is unconstitutional.

I can see them not liking it. Their opinion, but to call it unconstitutional is wrong after the Supreme Court says otherwise.

I hope the come out later today with personal support for this proposal. No, we cannot make WI-6 a isolated area in the middle of Lake Michigan.
