There are more people on Welfare in Illinois than there are people working.

OOPsss….

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.

Yet Chicago school system is rated one of the worst in the country.

You can’t blame Republicans because there aren’t any!

Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what?

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:

. House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr. (Resigned)
. Governor: Pat Quinn
. House leader: Mike Madigan
. Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)
. Mayor: Rohm Emanuel

. Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago .

. Of course, they’re all blaming each other. 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 was going to ‘fix’ Washington politics for us???

. George Ryan was Governor but he is in the big house.

. Of course he was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is…also in the big house.

.Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. had to resign because he and his wife are being sent to… the big house.

. The Land of Lincoln , where our former government officials 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 – it’s helping the country go broke every day.

“Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him should look at the American Indian.”
