There was not much we could do on this one ahead of time.
The riders were added on the 28th in both house and senate, they were approved and on the governors desk by the 29th and by the time we knew it was already done.
The simple fact is this done with malicious intent to hurt herpers by adding those riders. I feel like the extra effort that went into this could constitute an ethical violation on the part of hILDERBRAN and we need to verify that.
Remember that by making him defend himself on this it will damage his reputation, and with any luck it will get his sorry @$$ out of office for good. I want him unemployed...
We need to research the proper method to bring this actions on him before some ethics committee, and we need to make it very public. We will win some victory by just having him up there.
Lets bring him up for question.... I say that we look into this and try to have plan by Monday.. Feel free to email me for collaboration. (LanceBenton [at] SBCGLOBAL [dot] NET)
My concern is that I think we may need a lawyer to look into this option to be sure it is solid.
