Beginning today Indiana state representative who skip work will be fined $1,000 per day. After attempting to cobble together a quorum, Indiana House Speaker Brian Bosma levied the $1,000 fines against 35 absentee Democrats. This was followed by some weird political theater where Democrats dragged chains into the rotunda while their supporter chanted "One more day" which I suppose is better than " Shame! Shame! Shame! but still not up to "yes we can" or my personal favorite, "resist we much". A group calling themselves "lunch pail Republicans" charge Governor Mitch Daniels with a double cross. This group is headed by an office holder in the Brotherhood of Operating Engineers who backed Daniels and who feels betrayed. As I have written before this issue does divide loyalties and Republicans.
