GOP's Grothman: Madison Unsafe After Vote

Wisconsin GOP State Sen. Glenn Grothman says he and fellow Republicans had to leave Madison under police protection – after voting Wednesday night to limit public workers’ collective bargaining rights – because of the angry mob that gathered outside the Capitol building.

“I had to leave the Capitol.  We felt it was not safe for Republicans to be in Madison, Wisconsin, tonight,” Grothman told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren. “We left the Capitol about 15 minutes after the vote under police protection because there was an angry mob – and we were told to get out of Madison as quickly as possible.

“We cleared the state’s politicians out of the building,” Grothman said from Milwaukee. “The State Assembly will have to return tomorrow and finish the job.”

You mean to tell me that all those liberals who refused to participate in the democratic process got angry when it went on without them?
There is a duly-elected government in Wisconsin, and it's their right and responsibility to do their job.
The voters KNEW that the unions were on the line when they voted these people in.
But now the liberals who LOST the election want to resort to anarchy to disrupt the government?
These people are now showing their true colors.
It's NOT about America, nor Americans.
It's all about THEM.
