Yes they did. They Reformed the size of their wallets to a bigger one.

JBP pompously speaks down to the electorate on a continual basis, claiming we are not smart enough to understand all the machinations that go into governing the unwashed masses…

Oh but many of us do understand his corruptness…

Unfortunately not enough yet to swing the election in our favor…

One can only hope tho…

JB is disgusting. To all voters who pulled the lever on his behalf…. He thinks very little of your cognitive powers. He thinks you are either too stupid to understand his deceit (he has done ZERO to improve our state) or will simply believe him. How can anyone support this epitome of excess?

Watching King Jabba’s campaign commercials is beyond painful. Nothing but lies and misdirection. Voters will likely do the inexplicable thing and reelect the incompetent control freak. I do believe the state is doomed.

Don’t hold your breath. This is a state circling the drain. Voters elected these people. No real opposition party, crime out of control, and even politicians being carjacked. Not a word. It looks like the Cloward and Piven strategy which is break it beyond repair and then rebuild it all as a communist Alinsky state. Illinois is in big big trouble and that ship is so big and so heavy (kind of like our Governor King who feeds off his trust fund like he eats) it will be impossible to prevent it from sinking.

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.
