GOP Legislators threaten to miss hearings, pout in corner...

Republican lawmakers say they won't participate in hearings on Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr.'s personnel practices if the inquiry becomes overly partisan, and they are threatening to walk out of the proceedings if majority Democrats don't play fair.

"If it's extremely egregious and partisan, and Republicans aren't given the opportunity to participate in it, then we won't be there," Sen. J. Lowell Stoltzfus, the minority leader from Somerset County, said yesterday.

"Extremely egregious and partisan?" As soon as a Democrat asks a question they don't like, they'll huff out, then. :eyes:

1. Did anyone see the article in the Sun today (Sunday 8/21)?
It seems that the Repubs have a good shot at capturing state house seats of a number of Dems from conservative areas. Please tell me this isn't true.
