By the end of the week I expect every bill will be tied to passing it and the capital bill or there will be no capital bill. IOW, there will be no capital bill.
But it’s Blagojevich who has created the poisonous atmosphere of mistrust in which the legislature will convene in special sessions next week to consider his other, other lottery-lease idea (this time it’s to help pay for a $25 billion construction plan) and to address school-funding reform.
“I’m prepared this time,” Meeks said. He’s been calling for students to boycott Chicago Public Schools and attempt to register in suburban districts.
And he said he won’t stand down or support any construction plan until the governor does more for education reform than just make promises and float notions.
It seems someone has learned his lesson.
For Blagojevich this is chickens–home–roost.
