Skelton: Do it illegally

LAT columnist George Skelton writes this morning that if imprisoned Senate Republicans in California's legislature don't soon cave and allow $14 billion of tax increases then Democrats will use the nuclear option: Raise taxes illegally, in violation of California's constitution.

That's what it's come down to. If locking them in doesn't do it, ignore the constitution. Hitler, Stalin, Hussein, Castro, Ortega, Mugabe, Chavez and all petty dictators do it. How are California's Democratic legislators different?
