Land With No Republicans

Land With No Republicans — Hat tip Bob Guzzardi

Wow, just imagine what life could be if the whole country was without Republicans.

A wonderful State with ZERO Republicans!!!

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?

Be sure to read till the end. I’ve never heard it explained better.

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; there 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 a couple of weeks ago. 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.”

Land With No Republicans

Real Country Showed Up On The Fourth

Although I’ve been a journalist for more than 20 years, I am in no way a “news junkie.” I seldom watch TV news, nor do I listen to news on the radio (except the traffic report when I’m in the car). I read newspapers sparingly—that is to say, selectively. And of course, I have been trained to pick out the bias in all reporting (yes, it’s there; believe me, some more so than others!).
Most who do watch, read, and listen to mainstream news (and entertainment) media will no doubt tell you that the tendencies in today’s culture are to tolerate everyone’s point of view, celebrate (whatever the hell that means) everyone’s lifestyle, and crusade for what you believe i —i.e. speak your mind.
Undeniably you’ll travel a smoother road as long as your
point of view, your crusade, and your speech tows that cultural line: The one
painted so stealthily through our social conscience by the media.
So you should join the overwhelming majority (if media tendentiousness
is to be believed) of Americans who:
• Tolerate casual sex, infanticide, and animal worship.
• Celebrate homosexuality, bisexuality, and nature worship.
• Speak out against all outdated ideals, such as theism and patriotism.
Then you’d be well on your way to conforming to the contemporary
norm. You’d be solidly in line to becoming a secular humanist. (Sounds great
doesn’t it—Secular humanist? It’s one
of those hip phrases that pretty much means whatever the hell you want it to
mean. Stalin and Hitler would both have loved it!)
Not that I was ever seriously tempted to trust media predisposition
to their vision of the new American society,
but I had my faith physically and spiritually reinforced this Independence Day
at the parade in Pitman, New Jersey.
As a Christian, I’ve always been taught that Faith, Hope,
and Charity are the three cardinal virtues upon which true humanism, if you will, is based. Those three facets of our uniquely
human nature were obvious the morning of July 4th all along Broadway
in Pitman.(Excerpted from Good Writers Block)
