I babysat the neighbor down the street starting when I was 10, but oh the irony for I wouldn't hire a 10 year old to babysit my kids. But if I had a 14 year old I'd let him/her watch a 3 year old sibling.
Also crazy news day in Wisconsin. I fear tho' it cannot last.
Go State Senate Dems of Wisconsin! On the run, baby!
If they could do that, maybe ours should too.
I heard rumor a couple of the Republicans have gone on the lam, too. I haven't seen anything like this since the days of the antiwar protests in the early 70s.
I just got this Tweet emailed to me by one of my coworkers, who covers a Marquette labor law prof for one of our products:
Senate chamber doors are barricaded. GOP wants to get lunch, but the police refuse to escort them.
Didn't the Texan dems have to do that a few years ago too? Also, how can they send police after them--what law are they breaking??
The Dems did it in Texas--back when Delay was redistricting, I believe back in 2003.
OH NOES! The GOP will have to order in. Fuckers.
Yeah, the Texas Dems escaped to Oklahoma, I believe.
State law says that legislators can be compelled to report to the Capitol, and that state police can be used to bring them in. The same thing applied in Texas.
They're probably hiding out in the UP.
I think the texans hid in new Mexico, I recall sarameg being excited by it.
