Illinois, From the Colder Prairie Now
Not planned since the old theme just broke. Let me know how it looks and operates. Also, regular posting to return in the next few days.
For a few days. Check back in from time to time, but I’ll be slow posting.
It’s not here yet, but I am reliably told by many that it will show Michelle’s mentor Herman Simpson teaching her to hate Whitey……. Update: Not the full video, but here is nefarious Whitey hating Herman Simpson: [kml_flashembed movie=”http://www.youtube.com/v/_QhuBIkPXn0″ width=”425″ height=”350″ wmode=”transparent” /] This is surely the end of the Obama campaign.
I went to college in Mount Vernon, Iowa and I’m having a very hard time watching the news from Cedar Rapids. The Historic Sutliff Bridge just fell–it was a regular cycling destination for me for my time in Iowa.
The question not being asked is who does Ozinga think should control an airport in Will County? Elk Grove Village and Governor Rod Blagojevich or Will County elected officials? Does Ozinga think the Weller bill that required federal procurement rules and Will County control was a bad idea? Or does he think that Elk Grove […]
Apparently the June 2006 meeting shouldn’t have been surprising to Jackson since: Finally, Jackson said he spoke with Gov,. Blagojevich today, during which time the Governor proposed creating a gubernatorial-appointed commission to oversee development of the airport. Jackson said he rejected the concept, noting that the two private development firms who are willing to finance […]
Seriously, how the hell is Jackson getting away with this nonsense? Download Title Let’s revisit Jackson’s plan in February 2006: Under the new Intergovernmental Agreement, ALNAC’s Board of Directors will consist of nine members – at least five being Will County residents. During the construction phase, Cook County home-rule communities will hold four seats. After […]
Also Via Rich That whole abuse of power thingy As you may already know, last month JCAR blocked a rule change proposed by Governor Blagojevich that would have allowed him to immediately expand the eligibility for government-funded health-insurance programs. Health insurance is the governor’s top priority, and he had previously claimed the right to veto […]
Via Rich SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) – Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan has produced “talking points” for legislative candidates on the reasons to impeach Governor Rod Blagojevich. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the memo Tuesday. It refers to corruption under Blagojevich as “a tumor” that must be surgically removed. It also claims the governor […]

I’d like to blame Ozinga for it, but this was a cheap shot by Jackson–this kind of thing doesn’t go out without your boss’s approval. The Illinois Senate quietly approved a bill this spring that would have steered the proposed third airport down a path of pay-to-play politics – and certain doom. I know, because […]
I swear our discourse cannot become any stupider. Laugh at the terrorists if you will, but it’s all a plan to subvert marriage: From Too Much Awesome I am reliably informed this refers to a different kind of fist jab. No word if Petey has found his ring yet or not.
Sigh…Zombie lies don’t die. Eric covers the most recent attempt to make up stuff about the Obama house purchase Eric has collected a number of resources on the issue here including some posts by me. Here is the Rezko Primer I put together I researched the property records going back over 10 years. Die zombie […]
However, I think that we ought to give people caught in bad loans some help too…Illinois Progress demonstrates Mark Kirk’s enjoyment of one tax credit that helps largely better off families compared to his opposition to help relatively low income homeowners with tax credits (that would be paid back even)
On Congressional Races—Charlie Cook reclassified several races when Obama took the nomination: Changes made about a week ago. Shays and Kirk are the obvious ones where Obama pulls out voters in their district and they are likely to get knocked off.
