Well for all the outrage here, legislatures have wide, wide latitude in how they arrange themselves and their rules. For instance, the AZ legislature has a budget committee, with both majority and minority members who are tasked with writing the budget for the state. They didn't meet this year; the budget was written by the staff of the Governor and the Senate Presidents and House leaders, then presented as a fait accompli to be rubber-stamped by the Republican majority, so they could get on with the important business of defunding Planned Parenthood, eliminating the state merit system (turning every state job into a political patronage plum) stamping their tiny feet and threatening to hold their breath until the Federal government hands over every square inch of Arizona land they hold, and banning any state, county or city from dealing with any NGO on issues of energy or the environment because Agenda 21 sheeple!! You know, the IMPORTANT issues facing the state... -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
