WI Republicans authorize Use of Force against Senate Dems.
As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports the resolution passed by the state Senate orders the Sergeant at Arms, if the Dems don't show up by 4 p.m., to "take any and all necessary steps, with or without force, and with or without the assistance of law enforcement officers, by warrant or other legal process, as he may deem necessary in order to bring that senator to the Senate chambers so that the Senate may convene with a quorum of no less than 20 senators."

1. What happened at 4pm? I hope those Senators stand strong! Some people (Republicans!)
are saying a few of them want to return to the "fold". :shrug:
