John Kass has fun with the season in his column today, but the mob/combine connections he reveals are the important part of the Blag story. WTTW put three local attorneys, including a Kent Law evidence prof, on Chicago Tonight to poopoo the chances of getting the governor based on unsubstantiated accusations. Are they kidding? Do they really think U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald spilled all the...

Ray LaHood? Transportation Secretary? HUH??
Why are we not surprised…this is the same Ray LaHood who went up against stalwart conservative Peter Fitzgerald.

Berkowitz goes to Fox
It was fun to see local TV commentator Jeff Berkowitz finally making it into the big time on The O’Reilly Factor tonight. Never mind that Jeff mostly had to sit and listen politely as O’Reilly blowviated about one more thing that he knows nothing about, namely pay-to-play politics Illinois-style. Next time, we’re hoping Jeff can rediscover his conservative roots and discern a...

Here’s a video that captures how far Illinois has come on the road to total corruption. It also shows how fortunate we are to have Patrick Fitzgerald in place as U.S. Attorney for Northern Illinoios.

Since conservativeBrand graduated from college, three Illinois governors (Kerner, Walker and Ryan) have been indicted and convicted of federal crimes - and today Blagojevich represents the fourth joining them. Particularly appalling is the lead complaint, which is for attempting to sell the appointment to Barack Obama’s U.S. Senate seat. It’s been fun (and should get even funner) to...

The change we can believe in is sounding a lot more like the New Deal and a lot more about community organizing than about equality of opporotunity and individual responsibility. Granted, the Obamaphenomenon owes his squeak-by election to a great many groups, and on January 20th the bills come due. But for someone who had such a unique upbringing and elite education, he might think occasionally...

Xerox Is Doing Something Cool
If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can’t pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn’t it be...
