Uscager: Who’s Calling The Shots?

Uscagerpidbw: I agree with Rusche on this at least: the ultrasound bill was terrible medicine, terrible public policy, and an assault on personal freedom. Was amazed to hear that the Right to Life organization decided to pull the bill, even having the audacity to put out a press release announcing their decision to “pull the bill.” Since when do unelected people have the right to decide on whether the Idaho Legislature will vote, or not vote on a bill? Clearly, some of our legislators are mindless zombie pawns.

Question: Do you consider some of our legislators to be "mindless zombie pawns"?
