Doesn’t just about every other Illiniois politician end up in the slammer?
As a resident of the People's Socialist RepuliK of Illinois I think I'm qualified to answer that question using nothing more than simple mathematics.
For example: Four (4) of Illinois' previous 6 Governors have gone to jail. That's not "every other" Governor, that's 66.667% of our previous 6 governors that have gone to jail.
Now, if you live in Illinois 2nd Congressional District, 100% of the past three U.S. Representatives of that District have gone to jail. They are (1) Gus Savage, (2) Mel Reynolds, (3)Jesse Jackson Junior (awaiting sentencing.)
Elsewhere in the People's Socialist RepuliK of Illinois, it darn well FEELS like every other one of these rat bastards (R & D alike) should be in, or on their way to jail!
