Where Was The MSM Before This?????????

"Assembly Democrats ID concerns with Wisconsin budget
Assembly to debate Wednesday

By SCOTT BAUER • The Associated Press • June 5, 2009

MADISON — Showing where the fault cracks lie in a deal to solve Wisconsin's $6.6 billion budget shortfall, Assembly Democrats on Thursday raised concerns over many parts of the deal that Republicans and others have already targeted as being irresponsible or too expensive.

Democrats questioned a new 75-cent phone fee, requiring police to collect racial profiling data and changes to state liability laws. They also raised concerns about forcing insurance companies to cover autism, consolidating attorneys from some state agencies into the Department of Administration and other parts of the deal put together by their Democratic colleagues on the budget-writing Joint Finance Committee.

Much of the work on the budget was done by Democrats from both the Senate and Assembly in secret meetings with Gov. Jim Doyle's aides. Most of the deal wasn't approved until a 12-hour meeting that didn't end until the sun was rising last Friday morning."

So when bloggers and some republicans bring up this waste it falls on deaf ears?

Where is the MSM on a daily basis?
