The AP reports that a judge in Wisconsin has issues a temporary restraining order stopping the implementation of Scott Walker's union-stripping bill, on the grounds that the Wisconsin state senate violated the law by not giving enough notice of the vote.
If I may say so, I saw this coming - it was pretty obvious even at the time that the legislative procedure they used to get the thing passed was unlawful. I also think it was a stupid thing for the Republicans to do, politically, because now they get all the flack for shoving the thing through, and the law will get struck down anyway. But then the whole thing is an exercise in political (to say nothing of economic and moral) stupidity.
