Senate Republicans, Indignant About Constitutional Violations In 2010, Trampled On Constitution When In The Majority

Senate Republicans--Indignant About

Speaking of violating the constitution, it's fascinating to see some of these Republicans so worried about violating the constitution now that they're in the minority.

Case in point: redistricting. Republicans had the majority in 2003. Not content with holding five of the state's seven congressional seats, they rammed through a redistricting bill in the final days of the session (after assuring Democrats there would be no redistricting bill). They were warned it was unconstitutional. It later was declared unconstitutional and became known as the midnight gerrymander.
