If you’ll recall, just last week I spoke of fake Republican Angelo "Skip" Saviano, State Rep from Elmwood Park. Well, Skippy has again proven his complete lack of Republican credentials with his latest apostasy. With this vote Skippy has once again proven to be a RINO (Republican In Name Only) that we’d be better off to be rid of in Illinois.
With his no vote on HB 4744, ol’ Skippy has not only voted to allow a governor, any governor, to sell state properties without prior approval of the people’s representatives, but he’s also basically given Democrat Governor Quinn the go ahead to sell the Thomson State Correctional facility to the federal government in order to allow terrorist to come live amongst us there.
That’s right, Skippy Saviano pretends to be a Republican but has voted to allow a Democrat to bring terrorists to live here...

Not surprised, Illinois needs a good clean-up, it’s the little Washington D.C. as far as corruption!
I live in the area, and heard a public official and candidate say yesterday that this was a “done deal” and the IL legislature has no right to meddle in it. As you no doubt know, Thomson employees were sent termination notices this week, the state is set to close it 4/30. Then Quinn will be able to declare it “surplus” and try to sell it.
As much as the locals want and need some jobs out of this long-term fiasco, I truly hope there is some way to keep this tied up in courts for years. In the eyes of the public, it is far from a “done deal”.
I hope that Rosanna Pulido will defeat him, in the race for IL GOP State Central Committeeman, in March.
