Michigan Republicans puts laws into effect without the supermajority of votes which the bill stated is the requirement for passing immediate laws
They disregard the actual count of votes and pretend that they do have the supermajority required

The [s]ab[/s]use of the emergency rule is debatable, as it can help cut down red tape sooner to fix some problem.
But the part about them lying about having a super majority is pretty hilarious. It's hard to believe that this is actually going on. lol

Sounds like something the Republican party would do.

As much as I try not to make generalizations about a single type of people, it's getting harder for me to defend republicans :c

Republicans are becoming more and more assholes looking for power...
Edit: Thought I should explain myself. If taking away people's rights to, really, do ANYTHING in the state isn't dictatorship/aristocracy, then I don't know what is. This is just ridiculous, power comes with responsibility and frankly they're just not responsible enough to take the job.

Sigh
Again
Time for the federal goverment to come in
Kick buts or be kicked but the general population
Then let the democracts do this
and the cycle renews
Once we get sick of our current poliations another revolotion will occur
But this time it will be to eject all our current blind government officals

Of course they don't bother counting all the votes! How can the law be put into immediate effect if they have to wait for a vote count?
