| Texas politicians' multiple voting breaks legislature rules - 236 sec
The Texas legislature is a joke. These politicians can't even follow their own rules. When they break their rules they won't punish the people.
Rep. Debbie Riddle, someone who wants to ensure people vote only once with strict laws, cast several votes under other people's names.
Debbie Riddle is your classic Texas Bible-thumping conservative Republican. The religious-conservative fundies have no problem with cheating and breaking their own rules.
Speaking of Riddle, she is opposed to "free education, and free medical care."

| Legislature and Credit Card Debt - 126 sec
One significant reason that Americans look to Bankruptcy relief for help is due to credit card debt. Credit card companies overload consumers with high interest rates and numerous fees. These can lead to large credit card debt very quickly. Bankruptcy becomes the only true option to allow for a fresh financial start. Congress has taken notice of these tactics by credit card companies.

"Taiwan Legislature Dissolves Into Chaos"
The Associated Press
Friday, January 19, 2007; 9:20 AM
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- A ruling party lawmaker threw a shoe at the speaker of Taiwan's legislature on Friday and assorted colleagues pushed and shoved each other, throwing the final day of the winter legislative session into chaos.
The scenes were reminiscent of past Taiwanese legislative brawls, and represented another low point in the island's sometimes stormy transition from dictatorship to democracy.
Friday's trouble erupted when dozens of lawmakers from the ruling Democratic Progressive Party stormed the speaker's dais to prevent voting on a proposal to change the composition of the Central Election Commission.
The commission is responsible for administering elections on the island of 23 million people and is generally considered nonpartisan.
Opposition Nationalists responded to the DPP's move by rushing forward to protect speaker Wang Jin-pyng, one of the Nationalists' senior members.
DPP lawmaker Wang Shu-huei flung a shoe at the speaker, but it struck the face of a lawmaker next to him.
Another legislator threw the shoe back at Wang Shu-huei and ripped up a DPP political placard. Earlier, a DPP lawmaker grabbed a Nationalist by the jacket collar and tried to push him down against a desk, while dozens of legislators pushed and shoved in the background.
Taiwan's Legislature has a reputation for violent incidents ever since the dismantling of martial law in 1987.
Friday's brawls followed a motion by the opposition _ which holds a slim majority at the 219-seat Legislature _ asking for the Central Election Commission to be selected according to the parties' electoral strength.
At present, members of the commission are nominated by the government and approved by the president.
The opposition called the commission's impartiality into question amid months of legal wrangling following President Chen Shui-bian's narrow victory in the 2004 presidential election.

"Taiwanese MPs in parliament brawl"
BBC
Tuesday, 8 May 2007
-Legislators in Taiwan threw punches, sprayed water and wrestled violently, in a row over an electoral reform bill.
The brawl broke out when more than 24 members of parliament from the ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) stormed the Speaker's podium.
They were trying to stop the Speaker addressing the bill, and accuse the opposition of delaying the 2007 budget.
Taiwan's parliament, which is split between two major political factions, often descends into physical violence.
-Passionate debate
Lawmakers from the DPP accuse opposition Speaker Wang Jin-pyng of abusing his position, saying he is delaying the annual budget by insisting the electoral bill is passed first.
Mr Wang is a member of the main opposition Nationalist Party (Kuomintang, or KMT), which holds a slim parliamentary majority with several smaller parties.
As Mr Wang prepared to speak, DPP members descended upon the Speaker's podium. KMT members responded by attacking their DPP rivals, exchanging punches and climbing on top of each other's shoulders.
One female lawmaker was seen with a large gash on her arm after the melee.
And at least one MP was taken to hospital for examination after receiving an injury to his forehead, Associated Press news agency reported.

| Romney Slams Liberal Massachusetts Legislature - 48 sec
Gov Mitt Romney slammed the Mass. state legislature for neglecting their constitutional duty to vote on pro-traditional marriage amendment. The initiative, which defines marriage as a union between a man and a woman, has the backing of 170,000 Massachusetts residents. The liberal state legislature DECLINED TO EVEN VOTE to allow the proposed amendment to be placed on the 2008 election ballot. The Massachusetts legislature continues to thwart democracy and refuses to give its constituents the opportunity to vote on the definition of marriage in their state.

The Hawaii State Legislature kicks off each session with Opening Day ceremonies, featuring much pomp and circumstance, music, and food. Lots of food. While the speeches and music are a draw, and all the open doors at the State Capitol provide an excellent opportunity for lobbyists and activists to plead their case, most of the crowd packs the halls of government for the free lunch. Music is "Life In These Islands" by Kaukahi, as performed live as part of Opening Day ceremonies.
