Editorial: Another ethics placebo for the people of Illinois – Champaign News-Gazette*

"Pritzker said 'you can’t go by the theory that the perfect should be the enemy of the good.' The governor is right about that. No piece of legislation can be perfect because it is inevitably the product of a compromise-driven process. But by invoking that cliche, Pritzker means to put an end to the discussion. That would, in fact, be reasonable if the legislation really met Pritzker’s characterization as 'good.' It doesn’t."

He’s just another two-bit phony in a long line of Democrat pols who get a great headline and then do the opposite. How any times have we heard the same BS and seen the same modus operandi re ethics, gerrymandering, term limits, campaign finance reform, and on and on And Illinoisans never pay attention to the lack of follow through.
