Let the derision begin

Yep, we got another one.  :facepalm: 

I wonder if they'll nail him with five counts of perjury.  Maybe one of the downstate State's Attorney will go after him.  I mean it's a slam dunk case.  Takes all of five minutes.

Deputy, bring us some rope, we's gonna have us a trial !!!!  :police:

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

The Illinois Policy Institute first learned of Rita’s felony record from a tip made to the Last Honest Man tip line, an anonymous hotline for reporting waste, fraud and abuse within all levels of Illinois government.

Low 1-800 bill on that one I bet.

I thought that questioning someone's eligibility for office was nutty and racist and stuff.  ???

Are we supposed to be surprised?  [popcorn]

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Figures the first post I read here is about IL. Around here when a polititian runs for reelection, we don't call him incumbent, it's unindicted.

So I guess the usual welcome to APS may be offered with a bit of caution in your case.  Usually we say "Howdy" and remind the newbie that ammo and beer all around are on him.  But in your case it may be appropriate to add "That is, if it is legal for you to purchase, offer, give, or exchange" any of said items.

But wait!  Didn't that nice, polite, articulate youg man who used to be a Senator from your state just eliminate DADT?  Seeing as how he is a community organizer and you probably live in a community it may apply to your purchasing, offering, giving or exchanging beer and ammo, too.

stay safe.

I have no derision for anyone in (downstate) Illinois.

I grew up there and I'm quite aware the corruption and control do not come from downstate, it's simply been infected by the cancer on the lake. (Sadly, I love visiting Chicago.I would never consider living there, though.)
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Well, the referenced blog post has been taken down with a note that they are reviewing information that brings the whole thing in to doubt.

Thanks for all the welcomes. I came from the corrupt, paved-over upper right hand corner, but now I live in rural Ogle County where I can walk down to the pasture and target practice without any hassle. I still have to show my papers to buy guns and ammo, or even touch a gun at the store, but it's a lot more relaxed out here.

Considering the charge, any bets on how much information they may have been provided in the form of small pictures of former Presidents?

Nahh, they are straight laced.  It could be that the initial charge was bargained down to a misdemeanor.  Anyway, they are double-checking.
