Bruce Dold and Tribune Editorial Board brought a manly tear to my eye when they chorused this morning's edition with 'Be Not Afraid!'
Thomson Correctional Facility can do so much for our State and Governor Quinn has called for all of us to do things The Illinois Way! I am moved and compelled!
I am willing to take the Gitmo Guests! Let's Fed Ex this Candle! Let's Move! Send them Gitmo Guests to Morgan Park. I'll see that the lads get to Mass at St. Cajetans, get three hots and cots, enjoy WOW Cable TV and PlayStation II. Share in the delights and hilarious misadventures of the Family Hickey and their Widow Man Pater Familias.
Have the 200 Million e-transferred to my Beverly Bank account and me and the kids will watch these guys. No reason to have the Illinois Department of corrections do without a swell facility to accommodate Illinois citizens who fallen afoul of the law.
I will take the 200 Million and upgrade my Morgan Park raised ranch ( let's see,the Thomson Shed costs about $175 Million and I can get off-duty Chicago Firemen from the neighborhood - yeah, $100 Million Tops!) accordingly and treat the lads to Governor Quinn's Illinois Way!
I'll half of what's left. Eric Holder will see that these guys are well taken care of and then set free. So half of 100 million comes to 50 Million and we can get snacks and TP and fresh duds and stuff at Costco or Wal-Mart ( can I say Wal-Mart?).
I'll make do - this is the Illinois Way!
"We're here today to let the people know we're not going to let the fearmongers carry the day," Quinn said. "We're going to do things right, the Illinois way."
That was former Illinois Governor Quinn, boys and girls!
The Illinois way! Is not Blago, Pat Quinn's Old Partner, facing more than a few semesters in the Hotel Serious, for conducting things in the Illinois Way?
No Fear Guv! Tell the Feds to Send the Dough!

Rep. Judy Biggert - Will She Call for an Apology for MSNBC Abuse?
Rep. Judy Biggert (R.IL) walked into a Chris Matthews ambush, prodded no doubt by local nitwit Rep. Jan Schakowsky and MSNBC Stable Pony and wife of convicted felon Bob Creamer. Click my post title for offensive Matthews. He only does this with women.
Judy Biggert was verbally abused by gutless loudmouth Chris Matthews concerning the usurpation of the Office of President by Eric Holder - the deft switching of the trials of enemy combatant terrorists to criminal trials and afforded all the rights of American citizens. MSNBC. a sponsor of the Obama White House. thinks it to be a keen idea.
The always imbecilic Matthews, who manages to make the Pet Show Sportscaster in the movie Best in Show seem like David Suskind, set up an ambush, no doubt pre-planned with the soulless Schakowsky well in advance "Hey, Judy let's do Hardball!"
Chris Matthews attempts to parallel Eric Holder to John Adams with his moronic historical allusion to the trial of British soldiers after the 1770 Boston Massacre. Get this -
Matthews: Back in the beginnings of our country, we had a trial for the soldiers involved in the Boston Massacre, and we gave those soldiers a real trial, and John Adams was their defense attorney. And a lot of them got off. Do you think that was a mistake to give them a real trial, or should we have just executed them. What should we have done?
Biggert: Well, I’m talking about having a real –
Matthews: Was it wrong to give a real trial to people who shot down our people in the Boston Massacre, or was that a good emblem of the kind of country we were going to be, a country of laws?
Biggert: I think –
Matthews: John Adams was their defense lawyer. Should he have not taken that job? Not defended the enemies of our country, and shown that we have a good system of law in this country? Was that a mistake?
America, was a Crown Colony Milky, and not a sovereign nation you pompous jerk.
Representative Biggert went deer in the headlights and seemed to look to self-absorbed Shakowsky for help -'Dead Chick Limping!"
Rep. Judy Biggert must demand a public apology from MSNBC and the oafish Matthews.
She's owes that to the people who voted for her.

Imbecile Chris M(atthews)SNBC Attacks Rep. Judy Biggert for not having His Misunderstanding History
Talking to alleged Turkish Spy and celebrated nitwit Jan Shakowsky is a walk in the park for the Forty Watt Power of Chris Matthews blond brain.
Trying to add a counter point of view was too much and it tasked Matthews beyond his own oafish abilities to be develop declarative sentences - he was stuck on Interrogatory and Imperatives.
To sum up, On today's offering of Hardball Matthews invited two Congresswomen for Illinois to discuss the invitation to Gitmo Terrorists to enjoy Thomson Illinois and the folly of A Nation of Coward Holder's usurpation of the Office of the President to try enemy combatants like they were Gangster Disciples.
To make his point - like the one that sits on his shoulders - Matthews howled at Rep. Biggert when she objected to foreign enemies and terrorists being afforded the rights of Americans.
"Was John Adams wrong then to try British soldiers in an American Civil Court of Law and not a military court after the Boston Massacre? Was he John Adams! You are saying John Adams was wrong."
No, Matthews, as always you are wrong.
The British Soldiers were tried in a Crown Court by a Crown Lawyer, John Adams, shortly after the 1770 Massacre in Boston. John Adams was a British subject.
If Rep. Biggert does not demand an apology from this oaf and the MSNBC Ship of Fools , she is a bigger idiot than Matthews. MSNBC is a sad joke. Matthews one of its saddest clowns.

Illini Gitmo! Your Gift to Al Queda thanks to Durbin, Quinn and Our White House!
Get Them Thomson Melons Ready! Quinn and Durbin have Gitmo Guests Jonesing for Thomson Melons!
"We're here today to let the people know we're not going to let the fearmongers carry the day," Quinn said. "We're going to do things right, the Illinois way."
That was former Illinois Governor Quinn, boys and girls!
The Illinois way! Is not Blago, Pat Quinn's Old Partner, facing more than a few semesters in the Hotel Serious, for conducting things in the Illinois Way?
By Illinois Way does former Governor Quinn mean screwing every person in the State of Illinois into poverty and far and away from the Middle Class, but with Terorists?
What do our Gitmo Illini get? The Folks in Thomson have it all -
We have some of the finest watermelons and produce in the country. Thomson is at the intersection of Illinois Route 84 and Argo Fay Road nestled along the mighty Mississippi River, where Potter's Marsh (U.S. Corps of Engineers - Thomson Causeway Public Use Area) offers some of the finest camping in Northwestern Illinois. Thomson is also known for some of the finest duck hunting, deer hunting and turkey hunting in the state of Illinois. Fishing is great!! We have a wide variety of fish on the mighty Mississippi River. Huge Catfish, Walleye, Bass, Northern Pike, Bluegills and the list goes on and on.
If you are planning on a quiet vacation or want to do some camping, come and see what Thomson has to offer. Thomson is also the site of the Illinois Department of Corrections newest maximum security prison - a $145 million facility which remains unopened.
http://hickeysite.blogspot.com/2009/11/gitmo-guests-welcome-to-thomson-durbin.html
Coupons and Penny savers! Check out the Costs!
Average Annual Cost Per Inmate: $43,803.00! Wow, that is $13,000 more than my Western Illinois University 2007 Graduate daughter Nora makes in our American Economy. She has yet to plant a IED.
More than my friends who have been laid off for more three months. I know several families who will not be as snug and well cared for here in Illinois as these gents who made war on America.
Foreign born terrorists get to live in Illinois Melon Capital - Thomson, Illinois.
Thomson Correctional Center is a safe maximum-security environment. Prison design, movement patterns and programming options will allow a strong community of order to be maintained. Inmates will be monitored under constant armed and electronic surveillance. Education, mental health services, recreation and skilled development will be available to inmates as mandatory and or voluntary programming options. These choices, under professional guidance, are opportunities for inmates to enrich their lives with the tools necessary for successful living.
Thomson Correctional Center is a Level 1 adult male maximum-security facility comprised of 1,600 cells and eight housing units. The facility also has a 200-bed minimum-security unit. The facility is 146 acres and consists of 15 buildings, totaling 625,000 square feet. Construction in the cell houses is pre-cast, reinforced cement walls. The facility is enclosed by a 12-foot exterior fence and 15-foot interior fence, which includes a dual sided electric stun fence.
Currently only the 200-bed minimum-security unit is open with no opening date set for the main complex.
Dang. Adult education classes will be provided no doubt.
As Dithering Dick Durbin said, "If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags or some mad regime — Pol Pot or others — that had no concern for human beings,"
Yep!

Gitmo Guests! Welcome to Thomson - Durbin Tours and Quinn Travel Presentation
We are a small community of 550 people. Primarily an agricultural area, we are known for watermelons, thus nick-named:
"THE MELON CAPITOL OF THE WORLD"
We have some of the finest watermelons and produce in the country. Thomson is at the intersection of Illinois Route 84 and Argo Fay Road nestled along the mighty Mississippi River, where Potter's Marsh (U.S. Corps of Engineers - Thomson Causeway Public Use Area) offers some of the finest camping in Northwestern Illinois.

PC might prevent me from mentioning the fact that folks from the Middle East love a nice melon! Oh bother PC - them Arab lads Love Melons! Well, sir, that did not seem such leap, now did it? Thomson's for Melon Lovers -not just Terrorist Guests of Gitmo.
Does Dithering Dick Durbin, who had no problem calling American Girls and Boys in Military Servcice Nazis a few years back, so well understand the Islamist hue on the Great Diversity Rainbow that Thomson was his pick to bring Islamist Terrorist to Illinois' Melon Capitol of the World?
Is Governor Pat Quinn so tired of public service that he listens to Dick Durbin's sage counsel?
These and many more questions will be played out in the coming days
Thomson, Il in Carroll County is a beautiful town - been there! I wonder how the folks at Kyles Tavern and American Legion Post 1025 will enjoy sharing the beauty of this Illinois Paradise with hate-filled killers.
The melons might make a difference.

Pat Hughes for U.S. Senate! Dan Proft for Governor
Dan Proft had me at, "Hey!" While I love Andy McKenna's hair commercial and believe him to be one of the finest people in shoes, I must go with Dan Proft. While Speaker Madigan takes a lot of grief from Proft, I see equally fine qualities of work ethic, integrity, common sense, common decency, and loyalty in each.
Andy Andriekzcxsiekiqzkie seems a nice lad and his Mom and Dad did commercials for him. That is right out of Dan Hynes 'Hey, I Want to Lose and Badly' Playbook.
Pat Quinn is a sweet guy.
Pat Quinn is the kind of guy who the more vicious types that we all grew up with prod into doing really stupid things - "Pat, I bet Bill Celini, Kjellander and Quentin Young thatYOU -Maniac Pat - couldn't chug this quart of EverClear, smoke a pack of Luckies all Once and then flip ( jump on while moving) an L-Car on the Dan Ryan when they slow down coming into 95th Street!" Mad Dog Quinn'll do it! Hell, Quinn does everything and anything Ralphie Martire dreams of!
I was going to vote for Alexi Giannoulias for U.S. Senate, but he has gotten too cozy with the Abortion Industry and the abortion of American Labor -SEIU. I like Alexi.
Listening to Ditering Dick Durbin, a guy who makes Joe Biden sound ike Daniel Webster, was a bad idea. If Giannoulias had gotten even just a little bit closer to the thoughts of Speaker Mike Madigan, he'd be a shoe-in for Senator. Nope.
The GOP has Marque Kirque. Christ Almighty. Oh, Marque has an identical twin brother - Marque Dillard.
But then along comes the unknown Pat Hughes and he is immediately attacked by professional litigator and goofball Anthony Elton-John- Trigona-Lightfoot-Teddy Atlas-Dino-Desi- & Billy- The Couch is on Fire, Pa- Bluementhall-Hanratty -Martin: Just Plain Andy Martin these days.
Lynn Sweet tries to give Marque Kirque some cotton candy in today's Sun Times offering but then up steps Bughouse Andy Martin!

scal Policy
Our economy grows when private citizens and businesses are freed from unnecessary government intervention. Lower taxes, restrained government spending and the elimination of oppressive regulatory schemes that crush innovation and the entrepreneurial spirit are the hallmarks of his economic philosophy.
National Defense Policy
A strong national defense must be backed by the best funded, best trained and most prepared military in history. Any effective national defense policy must include our continual willingness and ability to fight the war on terror, negotiate peace with our enemies only through strength, and honor those who have served our country both while they are serving and when their service is done.
Health Care Policy
More government intervention into our health care system will result in higher costs, rationing of medical care and most importantly, the irreversible slide towards unsustainable European style statism. We can improve our health care system by reducing government mandates, allowing citizens to shop for health insurance across state lines to promote competition, providing tax credits to families to purchase health insurance, passing serious tort reform, and eliminating fraud and waste.
Energy Policy
America needs to reduce our reliance on foreign oil imports. Doing so is imperative to our national security. We must harvest our vast coal, oil and natural gas resources, including drilling offshore and in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). We must expand our use of nuclear power. At the same time, we should continue to invest in new technologies, including obtaining energy from wind, solar and biofuels.
Immigration Policy
America is a nation of people like Pat's grandparents—immigrants who came here from a far away place for a chance at the American dream. Thus, we should encourage immigrants to come here legally, enforce laws that provide a legitimate path to citizenship, and enforce our borders against those who would enter our country illegally.
Foundations of American Life
Liberal policies have undermined the social fabric of our country by assaulting the foundations of American life—religious institutions, marriage and the family. Pat promises to fight to protect, preserve and advance all three.
Pro-Life
A life worthy of protection begins at conception, that abortion undermines our American Promise to protect and defend our citizens. Therefore, Roe v. Wade severely undermines our democracy and must be overturned.
I will vote for Pat Hughes. I will continue to ridicule Cap'n Trade Marque Kirque for the Skunque That He Be ! I only hope that Pat Hughes avoids the Illinois GOP curse of having his toes blown off by the geniuses in that Confederacy of Dunces.
Thus far, it looks like I am voting for Dan Proft for Governor and Pat Hughes for U.S. Senate.

Obama Policy of "Strategic Reassurance" - China will not rub his belly.
"Dubbed "strategic reassurance," the policy aims to convince the Chinese that the United States has no intention of containing their rising power. Details remain to be seen, but as with the Russia "reset," it is bound to make American allies nervous." NEWSWEEK
In keeping with this new, humbler U.S. profile, Obama is going to Asia with very little to offer and everything to ask. His every movement and talking point in China will be shadowed by the knowledge that the United States desperately needs Beijing to keep buying U.S. debt (of course the Chinese also need U.S. growth to resume quickly so they can keep exporting). He will do little to press President Hu Jintao on human rights or climate change, even with the Copenhagen summit looming. With no legislation on carbon emissions likely from Congress—Obama tends to defer to the Hill on everything from health care to financial reform to climate change—in Copenhagen the administration's goals have been reduced to "not letting it fail," as one Western official put it. In Japan and South Korea, Obama will have nothing new to offer on what those two countries consider thehttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif preeminent security threat, North Korea.NEWSWEEK
Newsweek has a tone less than flattering of David Brooks' favorite Pants-Crease President? Newsweek going Rogue, on President Obama?
Newsweek home of MSNBC hack Jonathon Alter, who stretches every New Deal trope from his swell book about FDR into an Obama belly Rub?
This worm has done turned, Murial.
President Obama is about to bow to his sensai - the next one up!
America is defending Japan from China and North Korea and let's toss in Russia as well.
The Marines have been stationed on Okinawa since Japan surrendered - through the Cold War, Korea, and our continuing war with Islamist Fascism - which President Obama refuses to acknowledge at home and especially abroad. Japan's Prime Minister Hatoyama wanted a Marine Air Base moved out of Okinawa as well as the planned transfer of 9,000 Marines to Guam -"During the election campaign, especially to the Okinawans, I've stated that we would consider relocation outside of Okinawa and outside of the country," Hatoyama said. "It is a fact that we did campaign on this issue, and the Okinawans do have high expectations."
"It will be a very difficult issue for sure, but as time goes by, I think it will become even more difficult to resolve the issue. Especially the residents in the Futenma district will find it even more difficult to resolve the issue as time goes by." Guam NewsFactor,com
President Obama's Strategy of Reassurance is directed toward America's Rivals - particularly China and Russia -and not its Allies.
President Obama has dithered on his war in Afghanistan and all this point to his policy of retreat from there as well as Iraq.
President Obama's Justice Department decided to put America on trial in New York City with the idiotic show trials of 9-11 Terrorist that will draw and quarter America's War on Terrorism that ended in January 2009.
President Obama's Strategy of Reassurance is a policy that every friendly, timid and fawning puppy plays out on its back.
Here its is
For decades, U.S. strategy toward China has had two complementary elements. The first was to bring China into the "family of nations" through engagement. The second was to make sure China did not become too dominant, through balancing. The Clinton administration pushed for China's accession to the World Trade Organization and normalized trade but also strengthened the U.S. military alliance with Japan. The Bush administration fostered close economic ties and improved strategic cooperation with China. But the United States also forged a strategic partnership with India and enhanced its relations with Japan, Singapore and Vietnam. The strategy has been to give China a greater stake in peace, while maintaining a balance of power in the region favorable to democratic allies and American interests.
"Strategic reassurance" seems to chart a different course. Senior officials liken the policy to the British accommodation of a rising United States at the end of the 19th century, which entailed ceding the Western Hemisphere to American hegemony. Lingering behind this concept is an assumption of America's inevitable decline.
Yet nothing would do more to hasten decline than to follow this path. The British accommodation of America's rise was based on close ideological kinship. British leaders recognized the United States as a strategic ally in a dangerous world -- as proved true throughout the 20th century. No serious person would imagine a similar grand alliance and "special relationship" between an autocratic China and a democratic United States. For the Chinese -- true realists -- the competition with the United States in East Asia is very much a zero-sum game.
For that reason, "strategic reassurance" is likely to fail. The Obama administration cannot back out of the region any time soon; Obama's trip this week, in fact, seems designed to demonstrate American staying power. Nor is China likely to end or slow its efforts to militarily and economically dominate the region. So it will quickly become obvious that no one on either side feels reassured.
President Obama wants the world to know that the Bush Years are over and so are the FDR,Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, and WW Bush years.
The Carter Years are here, again! God help America and our friends.

Judge H. "Stinky" Lee Sarokin is Back Doing Medill Bidding and Wrong from the Headline
Judge H. "Stinky" Lee Sarokin is a retired East Coast Federal Judge who quit amid a cloud twenty years ago for sunny Californ-eyeAy!
Judge Sarokin was the the legal-air-freshener for all Stinky Jurors and Library Card Holders back in the day. Hence my sobriquet -that and Judge Stinky* is doing hack work for the Medill Empire and the Greek Pastry Arianna Huffington at Huffington Post. Hey, why not pick up a few nickels!
Here's the deal Professor Dave Protess a Progressive Sacred Cow stepped on his ethical Johnson, or rather bid his Kids to do the stepping by bribing (it seems) crack-head Witnesses for the Prosecution's Overturn in the Andrew McKinney Case.
Andrew McKinney is an Innocence Project pet-Convict - McKinney was convicted of murdering a security guard -Professor Dave and Kids Demand that McKinney is Innocent, because the Innocence Project has adopted McKinney. Professor Dave Protess is a Scared Cow in a Herd of Scared Cows - Medill Empire -Northwestern Law and School of Journalism.
Walp! Cook County States Attorney Anita Alvarez did not roll-over and 'accept' Protess Protestations of McKinney Innocence. In fact Alvarez asked for Discovery Items - student notes and other such stuff. Judge Stinky Lee Sarokin has labeled States Attorney Alvarez a Gestapo thug. A bit strong there Stinky . . .well, you are Okay with strong.
Protess and be Damned!
The Medill Empire goes Jihad on any and all critics and has trotted out an endless parade of Protess Protestors including Judge Stinky and the Editorial Board of the Medill rival Sun Times who have manged to get that paper as close to closed as possible.
Judge Stinky Sarokin is a howl. Here is his headline from Huffington Post:
Voila!
Cook County Prosecutor Continues to Investigate Students for Trying to Free an Innocent Man
Nope. That is not why, nor is she investigating the Kids, Stinky.
She, Alvarez, subpoenaed their notes and academic records for Professor Dave's class; now, Dave had them act like Private Investigators (P.I.s) and argues that they are journalists and Medill's lawyer managed to insult the judge in the case and it was revealed that the kids appear to have bribed a witness.
Not only did Stinky paste up a dead-wrong headline but his last paragraph is what the non sequitur is all about!
The Medill Innocence Project was successful in exonerating 11 inmates and the Illinois governor cited those wrongful convictions in commuting the sentences of everyone on death row. One can understand that the prosecutor's office might be embarrassed as a result by the efforts of a bunch of journalism students, but such embarrassment does not warrant a vendetta against them. ( really?)The prosecution should join in the righting of wrongful convictions not be investigating the students engaged in the effort, no matter what their personal motives may be. ( Follows Whta?)If they get a good grade for freeing an innocent person, they deserve it. Right now the prosecution is flunking. (Participle Dangling? The Flunking Presecution? Flunking Science? Flunking Broadway. . .Do The Flunking Broadway?)
Medill. Protess and the Innocence Project do not smell too good at this point -Sacred Cows or not - but Judge Stinky thinks that it is Chanel # 5!
*On June 5, 1996, Sarokin announced that he would resign outright from the Third Circuit, effective July 31, 1996.[10] Sarokin cited his fear that his opinions from the bench might be used politically. "It is apparent that there are those who have decided to 'Willie Hortonize' the Federal judiciary, and that I am to be one of their prime targets," he wrote in a letter to President Clinton. "In the current political campaign, enforcement of constitutional rights is equated with being soft on crime and indeed, even causing it."[10]
In a separate letter to colleagues, Sarokin denied that his decision to retire had had anything to do with the court's decision not to allow him to move his chambers to California.[10]

Eric Holder's Nation of Cowards Set to Try 9-11 War Criminals! Bush and Cheney
Self-proclaimed Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Guantanamo Bay detainees will be sent to New York to face trial in a civilian federal court, and five other suspects will be sent to military commissions, an Obama administration official said Friday.
The official said Attorney General Eric Holder plans to announce the decision later in the morning. The official is not authorized to discuss the decision before the announcement, so spoke on condition of anonymity.
Without confirming details of the decision, President Barack Obama said it was a legal and national security matter. "I am absolutely convinced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed will be subjected to the most exacting demands of justice," Obama said at a joint news conference in Tokyo with Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama.
Now is the time to try men's souls! We have Show Trials a-Coming! Eric "Nation of Cowards" Holder is trotting out the real criminals of 9-11 - George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
While the Muslim Martyrs from Gitmo will be the guys in cuffs, Bush and Cheney will be tried in absentia by Holder's Nation of Coward Justice Department.
It makes perfect Progressive sense, People!

A Kennedy Gets the Bishop Tobin Tune-up on Abortion - About Time.
“If you freely choose to be a Catholic, it means you believe certain things, you do certain things,” Bishop Tobin said on WPRO, a Providence radio station. “If you cannot do all that in conscience, then you should perhaps feel free to go somewhere else.”
Patrick Kennedy is one of the countless Young Kennedy children and grandchildren of the Kennedy's of fifty years ago - Jack, Bobby and Teddy; as well, as Sarge.
Now, Joe Kennedy II* a former Congressman is selling gas for Hugo Chavez. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend is writing books that trash the Catholic Church and helot Catholics.
Chris Kennedy plays Hamlet in Illinois politics until he gets a appointed to an unelected position of the University of Illinois Board. Young Patrick Kennedy has trouble negotiating parking spots and shoots his mouth off on why abortion is so important to wealthy Middle Aged Hags ( Cougars). Camelot -water under the bridge!
However, the Young (getting a tad long in the teeth though) Kennedys love to play at Bohemian politics and religion. That way they stay edgy and newsworthy.
Abortion advocacy is always edgy and de rigueur ! Planned Parenthood has invested heavily in the Kennedy Family since Bobby was killed. He was the last Catholic, it seems to me. Annulment? No sweat. Abortion? Choose it!
Young Kennedys flash the Catholic Gold Card when required - elections or to get out of some scandalous fly-paper.
However, Bishop Tom Tobin of Providence, RI is not enchanted with young Patrick's very unCatholic mouthings on Abortion - a Woman's Reproductive Health Issue - the choice to murder her child.
Bishop Tobin is giving young Patrick some lessons. Lessons are really tough to offer on the really arrogant or the really stupid. Now, if both deficiencies are afoot . . .Lord save us.
Bishop Tobin, in a letter publicly released Monday, called Mr. Kennedy’s support of abortion rights “a deliberate and obstinate act of the will” that was “unacceptable to the Church and scandalous to many of our members.”
“It’s not too late for you to repair your relationship with the Church,” he wrote, “redeem your public image, and emerge as an authentic ‘profile in courage,’ especially by defending the sanctity of human life for all people, including unborn children.”
Mr. Kennedy declined an interview request, and on Tuesday he told reporters in Providence that he would not comment on the bishop’s letter.
“I had initially agreed to a meeting with him,” Mr. Kennedy said, “provided we would not debate this in public in terms of my personal faith. But unfortunately he hasn’t kept to that agreement, and that’s very disconcerting to me.”
The battle is being waged nearly three months after Mr. Kennedy’s father died of brain cancer and received a Catholic funeral despite his longtime conflict with the church over abortion rights and other issues. After the senator’s death, his family made public a letter he had written to Pope Benedict XVI. “I have always tried to be a faithful Catholic,” he wrote.
In Wednesday’s radio interview, Bishop Tobin said he still hoped to have a private conversation with Representative Kennedy, who, he said, has a chance to win the church’s acceptance.
“It’s not too late for the congressman to redeem his image,” the bishop said, “and to embrace the church and the teachings of the church.”
Let's hope more Bishops, like Tobin and Dolan of New York, appear in our American Church. The Cupcakes with Mitres loused everything up over the last fifty years.
Good to see some tough guys.
*
And Kennedy, a former US representative, has relied almost exclusively on Chávez, a vociferous critic of the US government, for that growth.Boston Globe
Since 2005, Citizens’ 877-JOE-4-OIL campaign has been sustained by the oil fields of Venezuela. Chávez, who controls the industry there, has delivered crude oil at no charge to a Citizens affiliate, which has resold it and used the money to pay for oil deliveries to America’s poor. In the past two years, Citizens has been given 83 million gallons of crude by Chávez and sold it for $164 million - money used to fund almost its entire philanthropic mission.

God Bless All Who Serve! God Bless our Veterans and Those in Service!
We truly take a lot for granted. Forget the football 'heroes' and movie 'stars'. Pass this on so that all may know the price of freedom
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,
Jesus Christ and a Soldier
One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

Professor Dave Protess -Innocence Project or Blair Which Project?
Last night the State of Virginia executed a monster. Ironically enough the sniper-serial killer John Allen Muhammad - the Beltway Sniper was covered by Life Coach and former Journalist Jayson Blair.
Blair made more mistakes in his reports than the number of people who firmly believe that there is a steam heater (used to torture poor black men) in Area 2 Police Headquarters on East 111th Street. That's alot of mistakes.
Only a very few years ago the Medill Empire went to war on Sheriff Mike Sheahan. When the MacArthur Center for Justice teamed with the Medill Empire ( Tribune journalists/Chicago Magazine Medill School of Jornalism/Bernardine Dorhn & etc.) to PROVE that Sheriff Micahel Sheahan brutalized prisoners at Cook County Jail, it took a jury less than twenty minutes to tood all charges. Sheriff Sheahan quipped "Tribune Investigative Journalism is BS."
Medill Professor Dave Protess, an icon in the Justice Industry, seems to have wildly overplayed his hand in the controversy surrounding the McKinney Gambit. The McKinney Gambit holds that the Innocence Project has sanctified his cause and therefore he must be set free.
Hold on there, Professor Dave! Cook County States Attorney Anita Alvarez requested that all students involved in this project turn over notes and that their records be admitted as discovery items.
Howl! Howl! Howl! The Medill Empire went on full boil
1. CNN:
Editor's note: Nicole Lapin is an anchor and reporter based at the CNN Headquarters in Atlanta. She graduated from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism.
(CNN) -- It was two-and-a-half days before Illinois Gov. George Ryan was to leave office in 2003. I sat in a crowded auditorium in Northwestern University's Law School in Chicago, where Ryan was expected to make a major announcement on capital punishment.
2. Retired Federal Judge Sarokin in Huffington Post .
But I truly believe that the attempt of prosecutors to subpoena "the grades, grading criteria, class syllabus, expense reports and e-mail messages of their journalism students themselves" at Northwestern University warrants and deserves the Gestapo label.
3.The Chicago Headline Club of the Society of Professional Journalists
The Chicago Headline Club, a chapter of the national Society of Professional Journalists, strongly protests the subpoenas issued by the state's attorney's office. The club issued this statement:
"The Headline Club believes Alvarez should rescind the subpoenas and stop pressuring Medill Innocence Project students to reveal all of their notes, recordings, e-mails and even grades given. Instead, her office should use what they have already from Medill students as a basis for their own further investigation. We recommend applause for the students' efforts to protect the innocent."
4. Daily Protess Protestations of Purity in the Chicago Tribune/WGN/& etc.
Until yesterday. Now it seems that Dave Protess and the Innocence Project were doing Procrustean Investigations - All the News That Fits.
Two witnesses were paid it appears, $40, or $50-$100. Cab Fare or Crack Cash it matters not. Here's some money tell our truth.
States Attorney Anita Alvarez called the bluff of a Sacred Cow in a herd of Scared Cows and the lowing of the cattle will only get more deafening.
This whole issue just may prove to be a Jayson Blair Which Project - journalism and lawsuit lotto lawyering where the facts are fabricated to fit the agenda.
I am cynical. We will see if I am wrong.
Virginia did a great service to America in putting a monster down. There is another such monster in Cleveland. There are many monsters for Professor Dave to service.
However, thanks to Anita Alvarez, the Justice System will be a little more wary of the Innocence Projects.

Shell Games Catches up to Professor Dave Protess - Innocence?
After the student paid the cabbie, the driver recorded the transaction in his log, today's filing states. Apparently suspicious that it was a drug deal or a sting, he wrote: "detective gave me 60, told me to give him 40, gave me 60... gave him change." The "him" refers to Drakes.
Seems like Professor Dave Protess and the Kids of the Innocence Project - in the zeal to free Mr. McKinney of course - engaged in a little Pay-to-Play.
"You be a Witness to Justice , Mr. Drakes, and You Keep the Change! Change You Can Believe In!"
The Medill Empire encompasses Northwestern Law and Schools of Journalism and they work very well and nicely with the Chicago Tribune Editorial Board.
Americans love to root for Innocent Men Falsely Accused/Tortured/Disrespected/Hookwinked/Bamboozeled/Bewitched/ Bothered and Bewildered - we do, honestly we do.
However, given the thick padding American Justice gives to the accused it sometimes might be a stretch to find a really innocent man. The more Innocent men the more news it will be and the more funding for pet projects like the Innocence Project.
Every young law student harbors the dream of being this Century's Darrow - the Lawyer of the Damned. There are no Clarence Darrows. There are only the balsa wood imitations like G. Flint Taylor.
Thus, I have a tough time soiling my boxers when the Tribune fulminates against Cook County States Attorney Anita Alvarez in her rather respectful demand that Professor Dave Protess, an insulated Professor at Northwestern University whose work on behalf of career criminals looking to get out of prison has been most newsworthy and celebrated, cough up the Discovery material - it seems Professor Dave may have let it be known that grades might be attached to convictions overturned by the Kids. Professor Dave gets crowds to hush at the sound of his name - he is such an on-the-level-straight- shooting- Justice Samurai.
Until now. Hokey-pokey! Cab Cash!
It sure looks like States Attorney Alvarez caught Professor Dave with his Innocence down around his ankles.
Officials with the state's attorney's office also said there could be a bias on the part of students seeking better grades by finding more witnesses.
Northwestern and its attorneys respond by saying the investigation should be treated as one conducted by journalists. They said the county already has all on-the-record information, including interviews and copies of audio and video tapes.
I wonder if Judge Stinky Sarokin will continue treating us with his Cook County States Gestapo pieces.

Di Di Mao! Anita Dunn Gone!
The Dipwad Goof Mao-Mao-ing Communications Director for President Obama's Original Amateur Hour White House called it Qs!
Dunn also came under attack in recent weeks from conservatives over a speech she gave in which she described Chinese leader Mao Zedong as one of her “favorite political philosophers.” Fox TV host Glenn Beck said Dunn’s comment about Mao, who is considered responsible both for the modernization of China and for the deaths of millions of Chinese, was the equivalent of expressing admiration for Hitler.
A White House official said Dunn’s departure was unrelated to the battle with Fox.
Dunn, whose career in Democratic politics dates back to the Carter White House, served in a top role in Obama’s presidential bid, overseeing policy, communications, and research. Dunn had long been a consultant to Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) and stayed on the sidelines until he opted against a run.
Anita Dunn a sparkling nit-wit from the Carter Years ( President Obama's Dumbell Dore - Jimmy Be) who wowed school kids with her Wikpedia Symbiosis of Mother Theresa and Chairman Mao - with the camera's rolling mind you - has resigned, while President Obama goes to Fort Hood to parse the "Man-Made' Disaster by Major Hasan.
These people mock Sarah Palin?

American Public Education !
I doubt very much that the manager of this Gary Burger King was a graduate of Bishop Noll Institute, Andrean High School, or La Lumiere School in the Gary Diocese.
That is too bad. Were School Choice a Reality, the Sign Might be less Amusing . . .yet Sad.

Kick Abortion to The Curb . . .For Christmas.
To him who has done the deed of secret murder.Eumenides
We, the fearful daughters of Night,
Fasten ourselves upon his whole being.
Thinks he by flight to escape us?
We fly still faster in pursuit,
Twine our snakes around his feet,
And bring him to the ground,
Unwearied we pursue;
No pity checks our courage;
Still on and on, to the end of life
We give him no peace nor rest.
The Eumenides were the gentle furies and the Erinyes were 'the angry ones.'
Erinye Eleanor Smeal* one of the all time great Harpies of the Feminist Movement, which also happens to be a Moveable Feast on Unborn Children and or a Gay/Lesbian/Transgender/Bisexual Sock Hop depending on the DNC's immediate need, is going all megaron beefing about the Stupak Amendment ( a smoke screen that will work against unborn children in the long run) " bans abortion coverage not only in the public health-insurance option but in private plans participating in a new national health-insurance exchange."
Too bad Eleanor.
I am never disappointed in the cold-blooded hypocrisy of the Abortion Crowd. I caught Planned Parenthood's Cecile Richards complaining that middle class women need abortions. Really.
Hell, any bored middle class skank can afford an abortion. Abortion is no different to Richards, HBO cast members, or other Abortion Champions than liposuction, botox shots or tummy tux. Abortion is a Woman's Cosmetic Choice!
Trouble is that a child is horribly and very painfully murdered. No Biggie! Love Your Kate Spade's Are to Die For Too! The Heart Wants what the Heart Wants . . . or is it Wants Heart?
Let's hope that the next few weeks leading to the Birth ( that is a woman's reproductive health event that is unencumbered by the slaughter of a child) of Christ and other genuine religious celebrations of human love, justice and kindness ( Hanukkah, Ramadan & etc.) might help more people of good will to want to kick Abortion to the curb for good.
*When the chair of the Feminist Majority Foundation board, Peg Yorkin, and I met Barack Obama, he immediately offered "I am a feminist." And better yet, he ran on the strongest platform for women's rights of any major party in American history. Feminist Karen Kornbluh, the platform's principle author, ensured women's rights, opportunities, advancement, and issues were addressed throughout the historic document.
Never has it been easy fighting for equality and social justice. The politics of Washington, our nation, and our world are tough. We have spent far too many years fighting to hold the ground we had already gained. Now is the time to move forward. We are in one of those rare transformational times in history.
But we are not giving President-Elect Obama a blank check. For our hopes to be achieved, we must speak out and organize, organize, organize to enable our new president's team to achieve our common goals. Ultimately, we must hold our leaders' feet to the fire or, to put it more positively, uplift them when they are caught in the crosscurrents of competing interests.

Dan Lipinski! Thou Gleeking Flap-mouthed Foot-licker
Illinois Congressman Dan Lipinski flipped off every voter in the Democratic 3rd District with his vote on the idiotic Health Care Bill in the House of Representatives on Saturday.
A Cynical Dan might offer - 'Hey, I had to vote that way and show sodilarity with President Obama as ILLINI! You know Rahm would have been all over me like a cheap suit and besides the Senate will kill this."
However, Baggage Dan the Overhead Carry-on Commando of Congress is no cynic and neither are most of my neighbors. They have yellow-ribbons on the trees of blocks where kids serve in our Military; pray on their knees; mean what they say and do; line 103rd Street for the Funeral of Jared Stanker* and vote their hearts.
Dan Lipiniski's vote was an insult to the 3rd District. While south siders have no trouble returning insult with injury, we can always brush up on our Shakepeare!
I found a great site that offer thousands of opportunities to make a colorful invective and confound the crumbs. Try these combinations when writing or Speaking to Congressman Alamo Dan Lipinski - Our Congressional Baggage Handler!

*"Remember Jared as a precious, loved and loveable person who was committed and devoted to God, family and county," his uncle Bob Stanker said during his nephew's eulogy.
The thousands of people lining the sidewalks and spilling into the street fell silent today when the convoy of police cruisers, motorcycles, limousines, a hearse and cars carrying friends and family started its slow procession down 103rd Street.
Men wiped tears from their eyes and mothers clutched their children a little tighter. Veterans stood at attention while others placed their hands over their hearts.
Most didn't know Stanker. Yet up and down the streets and in the surrounding neighborhoods, they talked as if the Evergreen Park man was one of their own.
"The kid gave up his life for us, the least we could do is come out here and stand up to give support to the family," said Tim Burns, of Oak Lawn.

St. Leo the Great, Pope, Doctor of the Church
The works of mercy are innumerable. Their very variety brings this advantage to those who are true Christians, that in the matter of almsgiving not only the rich and affluent but also those of average means and the poor are able to play their part. Those who are unequal in their capacity to give can be equal in the love within their hearts. St. Leo The Great
Today is the Feast of St. Leo The Great. I was baptized in St. Leo the Great Parish in 1952 by Monsignor Pat Molloy*.
St. Leo the Great Parish at 77th & Emerald was once the largest Catholic Parish in Chicago and eventually was divided into St. Sabina, St. Kilian, and Little Flower Parishes. Click my post title for Dr. Eileen McMahon's account of the action. Four Huge Catholic Parishes -That's a lot of Mackeral Snappers!
Today's Gospel from St. Luke for the Feast of St. Leo The Great is very telling about all of us - well me anyway.
Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, `Come at once and sit down at table'? Will he not rather say to him, `Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink'? Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, `We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.'"Luke 17: 7 - 10
I was told by my Dad years ago, "You don't get "Atta Boys" for doing your job."
* Rose Keefe's -Guns & Roses: The Untold Story of Dean O'Banion
On November 14,1924 the hearse leaves Sbarbaro's Funeral chapel followed by cars carrying flowers en masse and made it's way to Mount Carmel Cemetary.
At the crowded cemetary, Father Patrick Malloy of St. Thomas of Canterbury church recites prayers for for the kind person he knew in O'Banion. Father Malloy stated that "One good turn deserves another" this in reference to O'Banion's helping needy and poor families on the Northside. After O'Banion is laid to rest, the Northsiders go on the hunt for everyone implicated in O'Banion's murder.

I'ts Good to Be Me and Molar Free - on the lower left Jaw
About 8:45 yesterday, I was offered a piece of delicious Wrigley's Big Red, by one the Leo National Honor Society Members who were the proud center piece of our Veterans Observances at Leo High School. Big Red is a particularly tastey cinnamon flavored jaw popping dental delight that wakes up the flavor buds and on the second bite down splits the last molar on the lower-left jaw of my periodontal challenged mug. The Big Red jingle is sung by Hip-hop artiste Ne-Yo -no less. It comes back to me - repeatedly. Click my post title and share!
I walk off from the National Honor Society Men of Leo and discard the jagged half piece of molar and try to maintain a shred of dignity. A shred is all I can supply.
Fox 32's Pat Elwood interviewed these fine young gentlemen and featured them on the 12P.M. Fox News! Huge, Patrick! Huge! Back to me. The Center of MY universe.
Toxic Abcess, Batman! The Pain was better than 24-Hour Loop Tape of Pete Seeger doing The Lion Sleeps Tonight.
Steady On, Hickey! As New Jersey Governor Elect Christie might blubber, "Man Up!"
I had four hours of minor details and smiling welcomes to Leo Men who sacrificed limbs and souls all over the globe and shuffle with canes and some strollers to Honor Our Fallen.
A quick Memorare* was answered and I manged to make myself useful during the wonderful and moving ceremony.
I am as Yellow as a Duck's Foot and Weep with Self-Pity When it Rains too Hard. Low thresh-hold for pain. South siders and other testosterone rich males have a feline metaphor that causes some to recoil in indignation and feigned solidarity with women.
Not this Cupcake. I am a P . . .pain-reactive hysteric.
When I could I called Commonwealth Insurance for a patient 'What's the Plan Say? Directive.
1. Call Us
2. See your appointed Commonwealth Dental Heath Provider -
3. Have Approved Dentist refer you case to an Approved Oral Surgeon.
Done, I call Call Dr. Fang in Oak Lawn learn that Dr. Fang has recently shed his mortal husk and sleeps with Counsellors and Kings. " You're Kidding! He was a young guy, what did he die of?"
County Kerry voice ( Brosna or Scartaglen) '"T'was nothing serious. The new dentist is Dr. Mara Harry and she will be in on Monday, so."
"Can you ask her to call in an antibiotic and a pain prescription."
"I can not and she can not send a prescription without first seeing you. Monday at 10A.M.?"
I agreed but three hours later of Feliniesque dream sequence encounters with normal people un-hallucinated with a broken and obviously impacted molar and gums on fire changed my tune! My breath must have been as delicate as barfly on twenty Old Styles,eighty Happy Cossack Vodkas, Two Packs of Winston Reds, Tthree Slim Jims and a kiss from Fat Helen at the end of the bar. I needed theeth out!
Back To the good folks at Commonwealth -"Please hold and the first available associate will be with you shortly - Loop Music! Ne Yo!~ The Big Red Guy!
"So Sick"
Mmmm mmm yeah
Do do do do do do do-do
Ohh Yeah
Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
Cause right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Cause you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger than this
(enough is enough)
No more walking round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Crying over you
And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears . . .
Tru Dat, Muh Brutha! The Big Red tune keeps coming back to me. I am getting more dizzy, loopy Twilight Zoned by the second. The exposed nerve and toxins within are burning the fuse set to blow any minute. I want to find a pliers and do it myself.
. . .gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
Cause right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
Slam with the phone! Back to the event - Veteran Activist Rochelle Crump thanks all groups and all the veterans. I make zombie courtesies with all and sundry. I call my Cousin Gary in the far south western burbs. Gary is a Marquette/Loyola Dental School Graduate! DDS! The Leo National Honor Society guys are escorting the WWII Vets back into the cafeteria which to them was the Old Chapel of St. Leo. The Kids always make me proud. Even the faceless, nameless gent who gave me the Big Red!
Script Prescription! Pain Killers & Antibiotics! Yesterday! Maintain, Pooh C! Maintain. I tell the Principal and former Fire Commissioner Jimmy Joyce (Leo 1960) about the bum tooth. Jim Joyce had an entire warehouse fall on him and broke literally every bone in his body and yet his eyes betrayed no irony or contempt when he registered the relative pain of a bum tooth. Great guy. I excuse myself and head back to my cubicle.
I call and leave the details with Laurie and a few minutes later Cousin Gary, DDS calls back. "This sounds serious get over here."
I do and it is. Gary X-rays the jaw and immediately loads four big-ass needles with Novocaine, dabs on the local as he asks me about the kids - all doing great, as are Gary and Joanne's two. In go the needles - Deeper than Max Weismann. Soon my mug is number than MSNBC.
"You'll feel some pressure."
"Nah Ahh Blid, Garee!"
Using what looks like a high-end pliers Gary makes two deft twists and long roots and bloody plaque get tossed on the tray.
"That's it pal. Happy Thanksgiving! Say hi to your Mom and Dad."
At the very least.
Gary wads up some gauze and tucks it into the gum-trench where a busted molar and impacted Wisdom Bucker had been extracted. I am numb, but what's new?
Thank God for Family. Thank God for Big Red! Thank God for Ne-Yo!
I am very blessed.
. . . Longer with Big Red!
*Remember, Oh Gracious Virgin Mary/that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection . . .
