If Pat Quinn wins the general election, he can rest easy that he'll never be impeached. Ladies and gentlemen, your Lt. Gov.: Scott Lee Cohen!

Ah, memories of Adlai and the LaRouchies!

There was (possibly more than) one person in our very own household who voted for Mark Fairchild unaware of the fact that he was, in fact, a Larouchie.  Oh, the agony.  Where have you gone, George Sangemeister, you indolent fuck?

I had no knowledge of the LaRouche movement before today. Thanks guys, you taught me something today. 

That directed energy beams can cure AIDS?

Where was the great Terry Link and Cohen's other opponents? Didn't they want to win?

Link was on WGN radio this morning moaning that he had somehow quietly alerted Quinn and Hynes and been blown off.

Fuck these gutless fucking assholes.

But how come Link didn't call the Tribune or the Sun-Times or the Herald or the Bloomington Pantagraph or Bernie Miklasz's paper or  Pioneer Fucking Press or the Waukegan Fucking News Sun (the latter two papers happy to listen to whatever Link has to say) and tell them?

Link is many things. A scoundrel he's not. Unfortunately, I bet a lot of Dem voters concluded the race was between Hollywood Hendon and Scott Lee "Jobs Fair" "John the Knife"  Cohen.

Something I somehow did not know, from the comments...

Also: if, like me, you read this and wondered for a moment "why, again, is Mr. Kristol a public figure?" and answered to yourself, "oh yes, his father," I propose an alternative. Having just read his Wikipedia entry, my new mental answer to this question is, "oh yes, he was Alan Keyes' grad school roommate."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Kristol

During his first year of graduate school, Kristol shared a room with a fellow government doctoral candidate Alan Keyes, whose unsuccessful 1988 Maryland Senatorial campaign against Paul Sarbanes Kristol would later run.

And this deserves be Bill's epitaph...

The New Republic dubbed Kristol "Dan Quayle's brain" upon being appointed the Vice President's chief of staff.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Tom Tancredo...

The opening-night speaker at first ever National Tea Party Convention ripped into President Obama, Sen. John McCain and "the cult of multiculturalism," asserting that Obama was elected because "we do not have a civics, literacy test before people can vote in this country."

The speaker, former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., told about 600 delegates in a Nashville, Tenn., ballroom that in the 2008 election, America "put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House ... Barack Hussein Obama."

Literacy tests! How has no one ever thought of that before?

Just remember guys when your President says health care costs is what is driving the deficit, its because they are rigging the numbers to fit their narrative....

http://www.american.com/archive/2010/february/obama-budget-rigs-healthcare-numbers

The Obama administration’s fiscal year 2011 budget continues a pattern of ignoring independent analysis and rigging economic assumptions to meet political goals. For the first time by any administration in memory, the Obama budget forecast rejects the Medicare Trustees’ projections for long-run healthcare cost growth. The reason: the Trustees’ projections undercut the administration’s narrative that increased federal control over private sector healthcare could painlessly reduce Medicare and Medicaid costs. The Obama budget instead assumes long-term health cost growth at twice the rate projected by the Trustees.

The White House’s assumptions are factually implausible. Worse, they threaten to politicize the Social Security and Medicare Trustees, whose process for estimating entitlement costs has until now stood out for its lack of political influence.

Good news is some states are crafting legislation to not implement ObamaCare if its passed.
