So here is the question since we are constantly given the better of two evils in this disgusting state who do we support?

A) Danny Davis - would turn Chicago into Detroit
B) Carol Mosley Fraud - would be Todd Stroger in a dress
C) Rahm Emmanuel - would have fun pointing fingers at people in the showers near Wrigley Field :)
D) Rev. Meeks - I don't know anything about this guy so I can't say anything good, but he is a rat.
E) Republican? - Maybe we should run Chicagolady and the dumbcrats would split the vote and she would win!!!! That would be my vote!

I don’t know of any Republicans, in that race, but Fred White is the least liberal candidate. He’s pro-tax cuts, pro-spending cuts, pro-gun, and anti-illegal alien. Please read his site, www.fredrick-k-white.com.

At current, I “support” Meeks. By “support,” I mean “despise the least.”

We will get nothing - NOTHING - from almost all of these candidates. Meeks is at least Pro-Life, and has lambasted the funding of abortions, etc.

I have settled on the sad fact that Meeks is the “best” candidate in my mind who has a shot at winning. The only thing we’ll get from him is an actively Pro-Life Mayor; still, that one thing is one more thing than we’ll get from anyone else running - and guys like Rahm will use the office to punish people they don’t like. I fear folks who will start writing their own enemies list from the moment they get elected.

There are no good choices who can win- absolutely none. But I’d rather get one thing than nothing.

As always, either the best Republican wins or hope for the democrat that will help destroy their party.

All you need to know about REV Meeks.

Chicago Mayoral Candidate: Reverened James Meeks

Heaven knows, we need a man of integrity to take the helm in most cities and states these days. We need men and women who understand principles, and as far as I am concerned God’s principles are the desired principles to turn this nation around to get us on the right track. With all of the heads popping up running for the Mayor of Chicago, one would think people could find a man of integrity in a Pastor who has a mega church on the south side of Chicago. A Baptist church at that.

Some folks would identify Pastor James Meeks as the most Conservative candidate of the bunch. But come and take your finger and scratch the surface and let’s see who Reverend James Meeks really is. Is Reverend Meeks Pastor or Politician? It’s really not rocket science.

Pastor James Meeks has been on my radar screen for many years. Maybe it started when I read an astounding article years ago in which Pastor Meeks “absolved” Reverend Jesse Jackson when he was “exposed” with a Mistress and love child. Yes Reverend James Meeks likened Jesse Jackson to King David and Bathsheba in the Old Testament, striving to gloss over the incident playing politics instead of being the Pastor he says he is and caring for Jackson’s soul, instead of becoming his Damage Control PR agent.

My next experience was an actual conversation with Pastor James Meeks on the Sandy Rios show. As all of the politically uniformed Christians called up and gave their full fledged support for Pastor Meeks as he was running for Illinois State Senate, I called in to ask him about a couple of votes he had cast that did not mix with God’s Principles. Pastor Meeks replied he was asleep at the wheel when the Fake Mexican ID the “Matricula Consular” was voted on. Meeks voted to force Banks and Businesses in Illinois to accept this false Foreign ID that is administered by one of the most corrupt governments around. Now Billions of dollars of “DRUG MONEY” are laundered back to Mexico using the Matricula Consular. Thanks Reverend Meeks.

Pastor James Meeks continues in his unwavering loyalty to illegal aliens even now. Even as Black youth are a experiencing 42 % unemployment rate. Pastor Meeks is siding with people who have broken our laws and are sneaking into our country and stealing American Jobs. Pastor Meeks voting record on matters of illegal immigration is dismal. Now 25 million Americans are out of work and are in competition with million of illegal aliens, some of which, because of his votes in Springfield, Pastor Meeks has invited to Illinois. I guess he does not see the wisdom of law and order.

Like most politicians these days Meeks would rather be politically correct and invent his own measure of what is acceptable, We the People be damned !

Considering Pastor Meeks calls himself a man of the Good Book, you think he would remember that God told the Israelites to secure their border. God gave them criteria for foreigners who wanted to live among them. Foreigners had to obey all of the laws in Israel and adhere to all of the customs and acknowledge all of Israel’s Holy days. Pastor Meeks has already made his intentions clear in this Mayoral race, he will continue to ignore Federal Law. Reverened Meeks will continue the masquarde of making HIS OWN law. Ignoring Federal law and continuing the policy of Sanctuary Cities which endangers our Law Enforcemnet officers. Sanctuary City policies tie the hands of Police officers behind their backs on the streets of Chicago. Tying the hands of Police Officers when killings in Chicago are at an all time high. Tying the hands of Police Officers when we are 2000 officers short on the streets of Chicago. In a time when terrorism is at an all time high, and Chicago is a major terrorist target, Pastor Meeks wants to play Politician, and NOT principled leader that the word REVERENED would call him to be.

The irony continues, it does not stop here. Pastor James Meeks has also sided with the Embryonic stem cell crowd. Pastor or Politician? Again all you have to do is scratch the surface and one would realize that better results have already been realized with Adult Stem Cell science. Great strides and recovery have been made with Adult Stem cell research. But the “leader in the community” is on the wrong side of the principled issue again! Reverend James Meeks forgot his Good Book and again sides with his Political side instead of his Pastor side.

Reverend James Meeks is now joining forces with Andy Mc Kenna of the Republican Party. The same Andy Mc Kenna who left the Illinois Republican Party in shambles. The same Andy Mc Kenna who misused funds of the Illinois Republican Party for his own Political gain. The same Andy McKenna who’s father is on the board of Mc Donalds and needs cheap illegal labor. Why would such a relationship be forged? One would guess for the sake of the Almighty dollar, not Almighty God.

Heaven help us in the seemingly God forsakened land called Chicago, Illinois.

Meeks is allegedly pro-vouchers and pro-life (and anti-gay but he’s making nice with them). He first ran as an independent for the State Senate rather than take on the late rat Bill Shaw in the primary. My grandma hated the Shaw brothers. Mayoral (Village President actually I think) races in her town of Hazel Crest were always proxy fights between the Shaw camp and the Jesse Jackson camp. As was Meeks/Shaw. Meeks was VP of Rainbow/PUSH.

He’s the “best” that can win. Everyone thinks it will be him and Rahm in the runoff. Both combine and anti-combine Republicans appear to be backing him in this one.

I’m looking to vote for White if nothing better comes along in the first round.

Doesn’t say what party he is, doesn’t sound like any democrat north of Tennessee.

I wonder if Rev Jackson will attempt to castrate the President as he once threatened should Obama give too much aid to his boy Rahm if indeed it’s a Meeks/Rahm runoff.

My neighborhood seems to be a hotbed of support for Rev. Wildfredo De Jesus, a Hispanic Protestant Minister. Our local Alderman Billy Ocasio who quit to be Pat Quinn’s Director of something wanted De Jesus to replace him. But the Rev had run afoul of the gays.

Then Ocasio wanted his wife appointed. Daley declined his request. LOL. This city.
