Their job as opposition is to hold the government to account and present a coherent alternative governing strategy. How does theatrically walking out of the legislature fulfill either of these jobs?
I'd be pretty disappointed with my kids if they pulled a Wildrose-like stunt. When things don't go your way, you don't throw a tantrum and pick up your ball and go home. You persist and rise above.

How exactly do you propose that they do that? Their questions had been unilaterally cancelled, even after first proposing them to the speaker. AFAIK they aren't allowed to ad-lib new ones. The questions not dealing with the PC tobacco coverup were asked as per usual.
Pretty sure the wildrose 'stunt' has brought plenty of attention to the deplorable government behavior. Mission accomplished?
