Cardinal Cupich Enables Illinois Infanticide with His Loud Silence

Cardinal Cupich has an opinion on what Trump eats for breakfast.  His first chat with the supine press in Chicago enabled the surprise Archbishop of Chicago to take a swipe at the dying Cardinal George's continued rooming in the Archdiocesan Mansion on State Parkway.

So far

• Cardinal Cupich has embraced Pflegerism and marched with Blond Jesus
• Refused to Venture down Rabbit Holes
• Chastised Trump
• Comforted Laquan McDonald's family a year after his death
• Condemned Global Warming
• Condemned Gun Violence , but Only With National Reportage
• Praised Sister Jean
• Praised Illegal Immigration
• Condemned opponents of illegal immigration
• Said no Bad Thing about Any Gender
• Spoke out of both sides of mouth on Sexual Predator Priests
• Praised and honored America's # 1 Predator Cardinal Theodore McCarrick ( Cupich's Chinaman)
• Falsely Accused a devout pastor of being in three homosexual relationships, removed the traditional pastor from his faculties as a priest, ordered a tribunal to investigate and refused to apologize when the tribunal acquit ed the priest

What Blase Cardinal has never done is condemned Illinois's March to Infanticide, much less Illinois's twin US Senators for pushing Infanticide on the national level.  Durbin created Duckworth from one his many fibs . . .not ribs. Together they stand for Infanticide and no Illinois Cardinal has objected.  That is you, Blase the Closer.  You does your silence in this horror betoken your episcopal consent?
Will he speak out?  

Cupich will not.  Blase Cupich is a political reptile of a prelate. He thinks more of what Chuck Goudie and Carol Marin say about him than what the 2.3 million Chicago Catholics wait from a Catholic prelate. 

Cardinal Blase meets the press.   The press don't care about eternal truths, or doctrines.  The press wants compelling narratives that fit nicely with funding and sales. Fred Eychaner, the Gay Marriage architect and bankroller, controls a huge slice of the media. The Media plays nice with Fred and the current Archbishop of Chicago plays nice with both. 

Will Cardinal Cupich chastise so-called Catholics who back Illinois House Bills that run counter to Catholic teaching? Especiall, the ones promoting Infanticide

Will Cardinal Cupich behave like a priest and not a politician?

Nah. 

The Innocent set for slaughter and Chicago Catholics are on their own.

Blase Cardinal Cupich has the Chicago Media. 

We have the sainted Francis Cardinal George at home with Christ - pray to both for help. 

Death and Taxes: Coming To Illinois: Infanticide and the Graduated Income Tax

"When you hear 'progressive,' when you hear 'graduated,' when you hear 'fair,' that is just a lie,""It's a way of trying to get you to think that it applies to you." - Rep. Margo McDermed, Mokena

"This (abortion) is a moral issue, You can't possibly represent your district if morally you can't represent yourself." - Rep. Peter Breen of Lombard, 

 Sorry, the two leading quotes for this posting come from Republican Legislators.  You see no Democrat has the temerity to speak out of tune during a Wagnerian Overture.  Illinois is Unbalanced.

On our opposite hand, the lock-step march to infant slaughter is voiced by a quartet of Democrat legislators with a chorus that includes Personal PAC, the ACLU and Illinois Planned Parenthood, “The Reproductive Health Act recognizes that abortion care is health care, not criminal activity as designated by the current law. The bill seeks to treat abortion care like all health care, with regulations that reflect current medical standards.” - Sens. Melinda Bush and Elgie Sims, Jr., and Reps. Kelly Cassidy and Emanuel “Chris” Welch

The Illinois Death and Taxes Gotterdamrung is being sung by the Fat Boy* - Governor JB Pritzker.  In our crazy age we should never  assume gender identity.  The Fat Lady may still warble at the end of an opera, but in genderless Illinois the non-Euclidian rules must always apply. That is why Illinois School Districts absorb so many Gender Identity lawsuits since passage of the Same-Sex Marriage Act. Who's to say?  Let the Fat Boy belt one one out!

Interestingly, the very same people who demand gender obscurity, abortion 24/7, and legal weed  also demand a progressive income tax where the rich are punished and the poor rewarded - a social dystopia that is heading our way.

Immediately after the Arch-lying Republican Governor of Illinois, Bruce Rauner paved over the only honest voice in Illinois politics with $ 100 bills, fouled the air waves with distortions and outright lies, managed to defeat Jeanne Ives, the signs were up that Death and Taxes would dominate JB Pritzker's Governorship with the distractions of sports betting and legal weed to medicate voters good and numb for the Novermber General Election and beyond.

Most voters are comfortably numb - take a look at the Chicago Mayoral Election.  Take a look at Bruce Rauner!

The Illinois GOP is lead by people with all of the moral courage and vision of a Mississippi lynch mob. "Get people to go along, Hell, what's 32, 832 little Oxbow Incidents?  We may get Mike Madigan's attention by September, for pet projects, iff we play nice and keep quite. " Goodbye Mursheen Durkin, I am sick and tired of workin'!

Death is one thing, but taxes are the same kettle of fish.  Ralph Martire has argued "Illinois does not have a tax problem!  It has a Revenue Problem!"  Yeah, and fat kids make great hurdlers!

I come from a blue collar family.  I used to believe that voting Union was why of keeping the wolf from the door of hard working people.  Then, in the late 1970's. Real Labor, the skilled trades and industrial labor unions, began to cozy up, snuggle, smooch and eventual got ravished by the public sector unions - teachers, SEIU, and the clerks, or AGSCME.

BIG LABOR became Andy Stern's Bolshevik SEIU and the AFL-CIO mewed like kittens, because labor went 100% partisan political - unions tossed millions of dues dollars into the political arena, at the expense of training and membership benefits. 

Unions wanted to become Kingmakers in a land no longer a democratic republic, but an oligarchy.

Unions, including the once independent and courageous skilled trades unions began to dictate approved propaganda and demanded lock-step marches to the voting booth for rank and file: The Pipe Trades Endorsed Rahm Emanuel for Mayor and defeated SEIU's Chuy Garcia,  The trades now were competing to select their own billionaire oligarch candidates, like Rahm Emanuel, Bruce Rauner and Bill Daley, most recently.  JB Pritzker made national news with labor's support of his anti-middle class agenda.

I was never good at math, but I know that a flat tax makes more sense than a graduated income tax. Twelve (12%) from everyone is a lot of money and 12% from a billionaire is one hell of a lot of money.  A flat tax helps people who make less than JB Pritzker; a graduated income tax will strangle the middle class, yet labor is all over it. 60% of Illinoisan make less than $ 60,000 per year. The Illinois flat tax rate is not 4.95%.

The harbinger of Taxes is Democrat Representative Martwick.  Here is what is coming:

Democratic state Rep. Robert Martwick’s House Bill 3522 proposed changing the tax rates to: 4 percent for income up to $7,500, 5.84 percent for income up to $15,000, 6.27 percent for income up to $225,000 and 7.65 percent for income over $225,000. That measure was tabled. 

Well, there is tabled and then there is tabled, like woman's legs locked into the old stirrups and Doc Gosnell getting ready to crack some skull!

Illinois is Death and Taxes, Cousins!  Get comfortably numb and ready for some awesome Sports Betting!

* FYI from Illinois Policy

The median Illinois family making $79,168 would see a $516 income tax hike if Illinois adopted Wisconsin’s rates and a $610 tax hike if Illinois adopted Iowa’s rates – 15 percent and 17 percent increases, respectively.
Keep in mind that in 2017, Illinoisans shouldered the largest permanent income tax hike in state history. And the most recent progressive income tax rates filed in the Illinois General Assembly would have hiked taxes on Illinoisans making as little as $17,300.

Fight Infanticide - Know the Enemy and The Enablers

 

The child above survived an abortion.  Illinois Representative Kelly Cassidy, who has three sons according to her biography, wants to make sure that no child survives an abortion. 

Sen. Heather Steans and Rep. Kelly Cassidy are two Illinois Legislators - Steans is the Mother of Illinois Same Sex Marriage and Cassidy a late-term Lesibian with a lot of angry energy.

They are a BatPerson and Robin tag team working out the moral agenda of billionaire Fred Eychaner, Planned Parenthood and Personal PAC Illinois's Boss Terry Cosgrove.

They now have a Governor of Illinois who do anything that money demands, because he too is money.

Rep. Kelly Cassidy introduced the moral equivalent of the Nuremberg Laws to Springfield. Cassidy was appointed her her job and remains a State Representative by dint of her energy and Fred Eychaner'sMillions.  Senator is a millionaire and scion of the Steans Family Foundation and fortune.   She is to Cassidy, as Senator Dick Durbin is to Tammy Duckworth and like them perfectly fine with the slaughter of infants. Same Sex Marriage and Abortion are twin agendas worked by one side of the street - Progressive Democrats. 

Rep. Cassidy, a declared lesbian and partnerwith Newt Gingrich's sister Candace and mother three boys,  introduced the euphemistic Reproductive Health Act, which has absolutely nothing to do with human reproduction - rather the murder of living human infants. 

 
The Reproductive Health Act will

• eliminate any restrictions on post-viability abortions and allow abortions for any reason whatsoever throughout all nine months of pregnancy
• eliminate any requirement that the person performing a post-viability abortion use a method of abortion that would enhance the chances of the unborn child surviving the abortion [thus providing evidence that women aren’t fighting for the right to terminate a pregnancy but rather to kill their babies]
• eliminate the requirement that a second physician be present to provide immediate medical care for any child born alive as a result of a post-viability abortion
• eliminate any restrictions on where abortions may be performed
• allow non-physicians to perform abortions, both surgical and medical
• allow women to attempt to abort their own pregnancies regardless of potential health risks
• undermine institutional and individual rights of conscience
• provide a basis to nullify regulations governing the operation of abortion clinics
• allow DCFS to use public funds to pay for abortions
• require health insurance policies to include coverage for all abortions, with no exemptions, even for churches and other religious organizations
• jeopardize enforcement of the Parental Notice of Abortion Act of 1995 (which is the subject of separate bills that would expressly repeal the Act)
• eliminate any requirement to investigate fetal deaths or maternal deaths resulting from abortions or to record fetal deaths resulting from abortions
• impose no restrictions on fetal experimentation

Illinois will never recover any semblance of humanity, if  HB 2495 and HB 2467.

The above contains photos of Senator Cunningham and Representative Hurley doing VIP pancake flipping in support Vests for Police Officers at a 19th Ward Catholic Parish.  Catholic parishes are where children are taught to respect Life from womb to tomb.  Why pour syrup on pancakes, when you plan to vote to spill the blood of innocents?  One would needs be a hypocrite, or a local Democrat. 

If you are a legislator, like Senator Bill Cunningham, Representative Fran Hurley, or Representative Kelly Burke -here in the 19th Ward and collar suburbs, people who vote and most of talk to one another will be waiting to hear you voice your opposition to these monstrous Bills.  We will also watch your actions on them and hammer home your willingness to slaughter infants. 

This is evil work. 

Chicago Got a Very Bad Haircut Last Night

                                                 

Q. What's the difference between Lori Lightfoot and Toni Preckwinkle?
A.  7,856 Votes

Q. What's the difference between a very bad haircut and a return to some semblance of good grooming?
A. Two Weeks.


Wow.  Two stunning mediocrities will face-off in April with the winner set to close Chicago down altogether,  Talk about a bad hair day.

I was surprised to see Lori Lightfoot best Toni Preckwinkle.  SEIU won that one for Ms. Lightfoot and will allow the idiotic editorial board of SEIU's Sun Times and its cut and paste columnists to crow over a landmark defeat of the really idiotic Chicago Tribune and its help in Bill Daley's attempted hostile take-over of Chicago.

Credit is due to the Purple T-Shirts and not the ink-slinging four-flushers of that daily rag.

Toni Preckwinkle, the humorless former Mrs. Zeus and County Board Boss, will go scorched earth on Ms. Lightfoot these next few weeks and her army of patronage workers will feel the lash for coming up short last night.

Chicago?  Chicago screws itself every election.

Chicago will not recover, but the oligarchs who make millions from the Liberal Gentry Culture here will make millions more in real estate and government set-asides.

The gap between Rich and Poor is closed.

The Middle Class ( the Skilled Trades Members, City Employees, Small Business People) , which is to blame for this situation, truth be told,  is vanished.



Note this telling graphic lifted from Second City Cop (on election day ironically enough) which notes the middle class going the way of the  aboriginal Illinois Confederation.
The Orange represents the poor and the blue represents the rich.  The lighter colors are the middle class of Chicago, which has all but disappeared, since I graduated from Little Flower High School in Auburn Gresham,

I am moving to a south suburb, after twenty years in Morgan Park of the 19th Ward,

Two of my children rent in Chicago and one owns a home just across the street from Chicago.  God help them.

I loved growing up in Chicago.  I got great haircuts from Max Esposito in his shop at Marshfield and 79th Street, next to Billy Ellis' Wooden House.  Max Esposito was an exacting and serious barber, but his shop had no comic books.  


Mac the Barber/Bookie had every DC issue of Batman and Superman, as well as sexy calendars, but haircuts were often given by gamblers, while Mac made book calls in the back.  My folks knew immediately where I had gone for a haircut.

Chicago has opted for Mac haircuts these last twenty years (Daley/Rahm & Whoever).  Last night was the worst chop of all.

We can celebrate that an African American Woman ( one openly LGBTQRSTUNVWXYZ) and Chicago will. . . .ad nauseam. 

Can we celebrate a bad haircut for the next four + years?

We will.

Hey, Chicago!  I see YOUR barber has a great sense of humor!

Ralph Martire and the Soylent Greening of the Illinois Middle Class

Taxes are the economic basis of the government machinery and of nothing else. Karl Marx

The Progressive Tax soon to be levied upon future generations of Illinoisans is the criminal enterprise won via class warfare.

Full Progressive Tax Credit should go to Ralph Martire of River Forest, IL and the Center for Tax and Budget Accountability.  No man has worked harder, longer, or more patiently than Dawn Clark Netsch's budget wizard. Illinois needs a flat tax, but that makes too much sense - this is Illinois!

Ralph Martire's mantra is, and has been, " Illinois doesn't have tax problem; it has a revenue problem"  -meaning:  people still have a few dollars that they earned and the oligarchs can not allow that.

Karl Marx could not be happier!  JB Pritzker is Governor!  Infanticide Rules!  Weed is Legal! Illinois Middle Class is going Soylent Green with the Martire Progressive Tax!

The Illinois Animal Farm demands the death of the middle class, all the while pretending to "work" for the middle class.  The Illinois Middle Class has been commiting fiscal suicide on the installment plan for decades ( voting clowns and grifters like Jim Edgar, bruce Rauner, Pat Quinn and Blago) and now with the election of JB " Legal Weed" Pritzker the class that pays for government will go all Soylent Green.

Soylent Green was a fictional story of a dystopia, not unlike Illinois, where the elderly, the weak the infirm are gulled into believing what the government says and "disgusted with . . . degraded life in a degraded world that . . . decide to "return to the home of the God" and seeks assisted suicide at a government clinic."

The corpses are recycled ( as they should) and turned into a food product - Yummy Soylent Green.  "Soylent Green is people!"  It sure is!

Illinois is People!  Pat Quinn, the most oafish of all our Governors and a dedicated Leftist, shouted about Illinois' "Everyday People!" while he furthered government assisted murder via Personal PAC, re-defined marriage and drove Ralph Martire to newer levels of power.

Ralph Martire is the Father of Illinois Taxes and JB Pritzker's guru,

Ralph Martire's neighbor and co-religionist, "  Il State Sen. Don Harmon (D-Oak Park) is carrying an amendment to adopt a “graduated” income tax structure in the Senate. Harmon said he expects the Legislature to begin its role in the process soon, and he expects a fight. "   Not much of a one, give the fact the terminally fetal Illinois GOP of Jim Durkin will mount no opposition and Democrats hold a super-majority in the Illinois Legislature, which they are also using to make Illinois the Abortion Industry's # 1 Abattoir!

"Soylent Green is people!"

Hey, why not eat the aborted, Kids? Get Terry Cosgrove on that One! Revenue Babies! Sorry, I digress.

Don Harmon states in today's Sun Times, the hardest working propaganda organ outside of Moscow,

“I’m hoping to start talking about this in earnest when we’re back in Springfield next week,
” Harmon said. “This is certainly going to require a full-fledged campaign to convince voters to ratify the amendment. I expect we’ll be joined on both sides of the debate with vigor and resources.”
At this point, however, the constitutional amendment would give the Legislature the ability to change only the income tax structure — it wouldn’t set the actual income tax rate.
No specific rate structure has been proposed, and Pritzker spokeswoman Jordan Abudayyeh did not give a timeline as to when it could be expected.
“As the discussion on the amendment moves forward, the rate structure will be negotiated with the General Assembly before a vote takes place so the public has a full and transparent understanding of the way forward,” she said.
Despite a lack of details, politicians and interest groups are rushing to define the measure in the minds of the voters who will have the ultimate say as to whether it becomes law.
Some supporters, including Pritzker, Harmon and Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan of Chicago, are calling the amendment a “fair tax” proposal.

When an Illinois oligarch calls a tax "Fair" expect a vigorous and thorough screwing.

Don Harmon will ease through the progressive tax with all of the grease, unction and K-Y jelly that  Rep. Greg Harris slipped in the re-definition of marriage and the opportunity to say bad things about Chick fil Ay. The late sainted, Francis Cardinal George warned Illinois that same-sex marriage legislation was "acting against the common good of society." It was,  He also stated "The state has no power to create something that nature itself tells us is impossible."  Euclid died in Illinois, as did how marriage is defined, but the heart wants what the loins urge.

Same thing with taxes!  Illinois is a disaster developing into a catastrophe.  Soylent Green is People!

Jussie Smollett and Ralph Martire carry compelling narratives accepted by oligarchs.

That is the end of Don Harmon's dialog, folks.

Crack open them piggy banks.

Soylent Green is People!  Well,  Bon apetite. Ralph!

House Sold, Emptying A House and Cooking My Slumgullion for the Last Time

I sold my house.  I am delighted.  My children have been gone from the house since 2014 and the place is too much house for me. I engaged a neighborhood realtor. For two years my local realtor was unable to sell this raised ranch in need of work, because " It is too close to the CSX railroad tracks."

In January, I hired Doug Perry, a tall elegant African American gent,  of Property Consultants and he sold this "as is" property in three days, after conducting ten house visits.

A young neighborhood couple will move in here after March 8th and begin their adventures.  Mine are pretty much over.  Now, I spend my days bagging, boxing and shedding two decades of toys, books, clothing, furniture, utensils, bri-a-brac and bills.  I hired the Schuch Brothers of Total Clean to haul away - everything. They are outstanding.   I also make daily trips  with loads to the wonderful Goodwill site at 93rd & Western, which features a drive up bay to shed memories and household detritus.  Adios, to all that.

Mine was a single parent home, since July 1999 and I bought the place from a single mother of two boys.  Being a single parent is no bag of popcorn.

By the grace of God, my offspring are solid citizens living their own lives.

I tried to make their lives comfortable and helpful - the jury is out on that and will listen to opposing arguments from family and friends.

One of the things that I managed to do well was feed my family.  They had three squares a day and a roof over a heated, lit and cabled set of rooms.

One of my standard meals was Slumgullion.

As I wrote some time back :

Slumgullion is the food of the working people who built America!  Not Howard Zinn activists and trust funded hair-shirts of the 21st Century American History textbooks, but the real people, former slaves, black, white, brown, yellow and tawny.  They are Edna Ferber's Midwestern Jews, Bohemian, Alsatian immigrants; they are John Dos Passos' Portuguese, Irish, WASP, and Belgian adventurers; They are Theodore Dreiser's Sister Carrie, Richard Wright's Bigger Thomas and James T. Farrell's Studs Lonigan.  They are slumgullion eaters.
Slumgullion is a varietal staple that can include Chinese five spices, Mexican cumino, Japanese ginger, Hungarian smoked paprika, or just salt and black paper.
You need a cauldron, Dutch oven, iron pot or slow cooker of some volume.
Beef and Pork are the usual cuts of meat, but chicken, squirrel, turtle, or fish will work as well.
Root vegetables, or macaroni, pasta, rice or noodles will add substance to savories.

My Aunt Margarite was a master of this dish, which she often served to the denizens of the old St. Rita Augustinian Monastery at 63rd & Claremont Avenue.  Those black robed Austin Friars tucked away handsomely, back in the day.

I made her recipe with my own variations.

In celebration of my exit a a homeowner, soon to live a Spartan few decades in single room apartments, I will whip out my Slumgullion.

                                            Pat Hickey Slumgullion
two lbs - of Chuck Beef-cut like Fajitas - dredged in three good tablespoon of flour, smoked paprika and cilantro
One 1/2 cup of Mire Poix( celery,onion and carrots)
Five medium potatoes peeled - I use three Golden Yellow and two Russets
Five sprigs of Rosemary and five sprigs of thyme
One 16 oz. Can of Crushed Tomatoes and one small can of tomato paste
Two long dashes of Worcestershire sauce
A pinch of crushed Red pepper flakes
One five quart Hamilton Beach slow cooker
One skillet with three tablespoons of Olive Oil
Methode: À la manière de Hickey
In a large plastic bag add flour, smoked paprika and cilantro; Mix well and add the beef and roll it , bounce and knead the hell out of it  and let sit for about ten minutes.Add beef to the skillet and brown it.  When good and brown make room for the mire poix and saute and them blend all together, Cook until all vegetables are tender-ish
Peel and coarsely cut five potatoes and place them in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Pour meat and mire poix mixture over the spuds.
Add 16 oz. can of crushed tomatoes and then the tomato paste and mix them together over the meat and spud.
Squirt five dashes of Worchester and sprinkle crushed red peppers over the tomatoes
Layer rosemary and thyme sprigs and mushrooms on top.
Cook on low for twelve to 24 hours.  

 

Serve with Pat Hickey Iron Skillet Cornbread -
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
2 cups of Aunt Jemima Corn Mealone Jumbo eggone can of creamed corn2/3 cup of milk two tablespoons of sugar, one tablespoon of good vanilla extract. Mixed and poured into a greased cast-iron skillet and baed for 25-30 minutes. 

Free at last! 

What You Really Need to Know About Chicago's Mayoral Election - Our Catholic Legislators Work for the Abortion Industry

These Illinois Legislators work for the Abortion Industry - Oh, and there is a Mayoral Election on Tuesday Next.

• State Senator Billy Cunningham
• Representative Fran Hurley
• Representative Kelly Burke

The Abortion Industry can count on their support and they are allowed to present themselves to southwest side and suburban Catholic voters as 'Catholics.'

Their pastors do appear to have a problem with their fealty to Illinois Murder Incorporated, or Personal PAC/ Illinois Planned Parenthood.  The Archbishop of Chicago has no problem with their pro-abortion votes any more than he did with defrocked Cardinal Ted McCarrick's sexual predations. 

I have a problem with abortion: if the willful murder of a living child is cool with you, anything else is gravy.

I voted for Jerry Joyce for Mayor of Chicago. He is anti-abortion.  Jerry Joyce's brother Kevin was the last true Democat in Springfield and fierce enemy of abortion .

His successor, a Tom Dart acolyte, turned his back on 19th Ward Catholic voters, knowing full well that Democrat voters generally do not hold to eternal principles in the voting booth ( e.g.  Daley, Durbin,  Obama votes won in the solid 19th Ward) . Toni Preckwinkle beat Todd Stroger thanks to the 19th Ward voters like me who worked in the sub-zero cold on her behalf in the vain hope that Preckwinkle would never stab a helper in the back - as if. 

Nope, on Tuesday at 7PM (February 26,2019) the polls will close and Bill Daley will face a run-off.  

Will Jerry Joyce be in the mix?  I pray so.  I also pray that abortion will end in Illinois, but we have elected JB Pritzker as Governor and a super-majority Democrat State Legislature poised to slaughter every common sense stay against Abortion in Illinois State Law. 

VOILA! 

Title: Senate Bill 1407 [SB 1407] – Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) for abortion

Date filed: February 14, 2017

Sponsor(s): Senator Heather Steans (D) 7th district

Summary: At this time, SB 1407 is a “shell bill.” Language for the bill still needs to be written, but it is suspected to be the same as the FOCA bill that was defeated in 2009. This bill creates a “right to abortion” in Illinois.  It negates all U.S. Supreme Court exemptions to its 1972 Roe vs. Wade decision, such as Partial-Birth Abortion Bans, Parental Notification, and other important regulations on abortion clinics. It also forces all Illinois taxpayers to pay for abortions of those under Medicaid, shields abortionists from civil and criminal penalties for botched abortions, and forces healthcare professionals to assist women in obtaining abortions.

Status of the bill: SB 1407 was referred to the Senate Committee on Assignments. The bill is dead, but will continue to be monitored.

• Title: House Bill 3735 [HB 3735]

Date filed: February 10, 2017

Sponsor(s): Rep. Deb Conroy (D) 46th district, Silvana Tabares (D) 21st district, Gregory Harris (D) 13th district, John C. D’Amico (D) 15th district, Michelle Mussman (D) 56th district, Jaime M. Andrade (D) 40th district, Jr., Carol Sente (D) 59th district, Elgie R. Sims, Jr. (D) 34th district

Summary: HB 3735 amends the Unified Code of Corrections. It makes “intimidation” of patients attending a clinic, or physicians or nurses performing services at the clinic, a crime. Intimidation is vaguely defined to include speech exposing any person to hatred, contempt, or ridicule, which can be used to target side walk counselors and clinic protesters.

Status of the bill: HB 3735 did not come up for a vote by the deadline required in the House. It was re-referred to the House Rules Committee. The bill is dead, but will continue to be monitored.

Rauner signed into law a fistful of murderous legislation already 

The Mayoral Election is Tuesday and Jussie Smollett is being written out of Empire.

To me, THAT is moral equivalence.

 Abortion Hero -Kermit Gosnell ( Call Sen. Cunningham and Rep. Hurley's offices at 773-445-8128 for more information.)

I plan to do something about it.  I voted for Jerry Joyce a week ago.

This week I will think about how I can expose the votes of my State legislators as perpetuating a fraud on the voters of my neighborhood - their ( Cunningham, Hurley, Burke) constituencies.

If you go along with the murder of children, what will you not go along with?  Pension theft?

Oh, Heavens.

Remember to vote, now.

Chicago Mayoral Elections - Not Much You Can Do, But Vote.

I voted for Jerry Joyce.  

Bill Daley will be the next mayor, because we live in a 'fixed' City.

Bill Daley, Gery Chico. Toni Preckwinkle and Susan Mendosa are oligarchs.  They are the ruling class in this Banana Republic.

Illinois, Cook County and Chicago are all rigged by the monied interests and there is not a damn thing my vote can do about it.

The GOP - formerly a political party for the privileged progressive few became nothing more than a name a few decades back under Illinois Governor Jim Edgar.  Since then, The Illinois, Cook County and City of Chicago GOP has been an irrelevancy.

ILLINOIS GOP Clowns like Senator Mark Kirk stooge'd for the Daley family and helped shore-up its Russian investment empire that the Chicago media ignores.

Senator Mark Kirk appointed Efimova chair of the Eastern European Advisory Board. Three years later, she was appointed vice president (Midwest) of the U.S.-Russia Chamber of Commerce. It’s a 501(c) nonprofit established in 2009 to “promote business between Russia and the United States of America.”Through her work with Kirk, Bob Dold (Dist. 10, R-IL) asked her to help with his outreach to the Russian-speaking community for his 2012 campaign. She’s “participated in numerous interviews and promotions…and on mailers that were sent to every Russian-speaking household.” She’s worked on his last three campaigns.
Efimova was one of 70 prominent Chicagoans on the committee to host the 2012 NATO Summit in Chicago. The hosting committee was headed by Mayor Rahm Emmanuel’s wife, Amy Rule. That same year, Rahm sent a delegation of the World Business Chicago and CSI on a trade mission to Russia to “ establish relationships with Russian companies and spur new business development opportunities.”

Fred Eychaner's Terry Cosgrove and Planned Parenthood control erstwhile Catholic Democrat State Senators and Representatives like Bill Cunningham, Kelly Burke and Fran Hurley with such force that all common sense anti-abortion statutes will be eliminated from Illinois law. 

In Chicago, labor caved to the oligarchs when the pipe-trades wildly endorsed Rahm Emanuel for his disastrous second term and doubled down with Governor JB Pritzker.

I am not cynical.  Just reporting.

Vote.  Believe.

The fact of the matter is this.  Bill Daley will be Mayor.  Abortion will rule Illinois, just like legal weed.

We can move elsewhere.  We can hunker down and take it.

OR we can step away from the all you can can eat buffet of bullshit put out by the oligarchs' media stooges and start to listen to good people like

• Jerry Joyce - Get him in the Run Off

• Jeanne Ives - Help fight two evil pieces of legislation :HB 40 & SB 1407 i

• Rev. Corey Brooks - Demand that genuine voices of the African American Community get equal time against grifters and clowns like Blonde Jesus Pfleger and Jesse Jackson. 

I plan to demand a town hall in the very Catholic parishes of each self-claimed Catholic Illinois legislator to ask why, Fran Hurley, Kelly Burke and Billy Cunningham offer fealty to Personal PAC Illinois that trumps Catholic doctrine on abortion and why their pastors aid and abet their hypocrisies.  Just to keep them honest, or least outed in public.  Hell, I admit my many manifold personal and public sins. 

It is a small thing and the least that I can do; that and cast my vote upon the waters.
