I had some contact with Radogno early in her political career. I’m surprised she has lasted this long. She should be home taking care of her grandchildren. Sad that this is the best Illinois Republicans can do for leadership. I agree with the other poster that Brady was robbed. Dems made sure they got Quinn in to put thru the tax increase among other things. I’m not hallucinating when I say that hope lies in electing more vetted Tea Party candidates on the national level as well. Locally, Dems are trying to sneak their own people in to run as alleged Tea party candidates. No one is going to give up their power easily.... What alternative do you offer other than despair?
Brady robbed himself. I saw him speak at Freeport and he dodged every possibility of controversy. Cook County Demonrats rally the dead before every election. First, we need an actual Republican Party. Then we need to wage war on Quinn (the easiest political task in history), Durbin, Nancyboy Kirk, ruthlessly purge the state legislative "GOP" caucuses via primaries, taking control of precinct committee seats statewide, establish propaganda organs, establish or gather together two kinds of political organizations: shotgun and rifle. Shotgun is a description for general conservative multi-issue groups: Illinois Conservative Union, Illinois Center Right Coalition, Illinois Republican Assembly or whatever. Rifle focuses on single issues: Illinois Right-to-Life, Illinois Rifle Association, Illinois Taxpayers' Association, etc. Some of these exist and some do not. Let a thousand flowers bloom as Chairman Mao used to say.
Radogno is such an enthusiast for aborting the innocent unborn. Isn't it the height of hypocrisy for her to have grandchildren of her own??? Doesn't the rejection of charity begin at home?
I NEVER counsel getting despair. I ALWAYS counsel GIVING despair.
