As America looked on in shock and horror, Wisconsin Republican Senators steamrolled a bill stripping rights from tens of thousands of Wisconsin citizens. They had been discussing this action and planned it before doing it. Whether measured by the standard requirement of 24 hours notice be given or the emergency two hour notice required by Wisconsin law before convening such a meeting, the legislators there clearly broke state law. And under Wisconsin law this is a misdemeanor. So what? Why care about a misdemeanor that has fines from $25 to $300?
