A wonderful State with ZERO Republicans (in positions of power)

There are more people on Welfare in Illinois than there are people working.

Chicago pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S. averaging $110,000/year.
Their pensions average 80-90% of their income. You can't blame that on republicans because there aren't any.

Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what? Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?

(Body count: In the last six months 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago .)

221 killed in Iraq AND Chicago has one of the strictest gun laws in the entire US.

Here's the Chicago chain of command:

. President: Barack Hussein Obama

. Senator: Dick Durbin

. House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr.

. Governor: Pat Quinn

. House leader: Mike Madigan

. Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)

. Mayor: Rohm Emanuel

. The leadership in Illinois - all Democrats.

. Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago .

. Of course, they're all blaming each other.

. Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!

. Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country.

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any! .

State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country.

Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any! .

Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% highest in country.

Can't blame Republicans; aren't any!

This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois . And he is going to 'fix' Washington politics for us???

. George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in the big house.

. Of course he was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is...that's right, also in the big house.

. And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. Resigned recently. That is because he is fighting being sent to...that's right, the big house.

. The Land of Lincoln , where our governors make our license plates.

But you know what? As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago , nothing is going to change, except the state will go broke before the country does.

"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian."

The sadist part of all this is we had a chance to get rid of Chicago a few years back and the idiots in this state said no and kept Chicago in Illinois. If you go into the big city and talk with people there they are as happy as flies on shit. The old adage of the frog in the cold water and as it heats they don't know the difference is truly the case in the windy city. My daughters sister in law blew a gasket when I dared to mention that the schools in Chicago sucked. Shy got so mad she stormed out of the house and couldn't even stay cake and ice cream. They are also very very proud of OIllegal as their contribution to America. It won't take much luck for us to beat out California into bankruptcy especially with always electing democrats.

One of your first statements was "more people on Welfare than working." You didn't need to say anything else. You described the problem. You have more people who vote for a living than work for one. Do you actually think that someone will vote to STOP getting freebies?
