More late-night GOP shenanigans

It looks like enough Dems (or their families) are in the hospital to warrant pulling those Vetoes out of the garage for a spin:

CraigJ_NandO 11:26pm via TweetDeck House will take up other veto overrides after midnight tonight. Hackney says he was lied to about it. #ncga #ncpol

MOORE_Carolina 11:24pm via Twitter for Android RT@JustinConley: Tomorrow morning 500,000 people will awake disenfranchised. bit.ly/Ajt3Fu #ncpol #ncga #forsyth

Y'all still need someone down there? I'm wide awake and it's the right time of year to break out my ushanka anyway. Low of 25 tonight...brrr!

A little bit of history repeating?

All of these shenanigans reminds me of the way Democrats crammed through the lottery vote not so many years ago. Waiting until one Republican went on his honeymoon and another undergoing elective surgery. Both had thought the session had been adjourned.

Glad to see the new bosses are no less corrupt and dishonest than the old bosses.

Right you are

It was disgusting then and it is disgusting now.

The only difference is the oh-so-pious protestations of Republicans who ran on platforms of transparency and ethics.

Makes me want to puke.

Do good. Be nice. Have fun.

Dave Ribar has a sweet take on the shenanigans

I'm glad to see someone has been able to keep an even keel in the fact of Republican slime.

Nice post, Dave.
