"About an hour ago, all hell broke loose on the Pennsylvania House floor when Rep. Tim Briggs (D-Montgomery County) called for a discharge petition on HR 520 –a resolution that calls for an investigation into Gov. Corbett’s investigation of Jerry Sandusky... ...Facing the end of the session, Rep. Briggs, who signed the resolution back in June, made a motion to bring the discharge resolution back into play to force a vote in the House tonight. No one seems to know what happened after that, but it certainly wasn’t protocol. A source on the scene tells PW that Rep. Sam Smith, the Republican Speaker of the House, simply refused to recognize Briggs, without explanation. Then the lights cut out, and “Republicans fled.”" umm wow.. http://blogs.philadelphiaweekly.com/phillynow/2012/10/03/chaos-as-rep-calls-for-investigation-into-corbett-for-sandusky-investigation-repubs-turn-off-lights-and-flee/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=chaos-as-rep-calls-for-investigation-into-corbett-for-sandusky-investigation-repubs-turn-off-lights-and-flee
