No, I don’t owe her money too.

The hard-charging, values-driven Congressional representative with whom I agree defended common-sense Illinois values against the unwarranted and senseless attacks of the stubborn, loud-mouthed, over-bearing Congressional representative with whom I disagree.

JW - “I will say this, both Jan and I are not big fans of the Judicial System …”
JW - “I think our caucus works very well with each other. We are all like ‘best buds’ … right Jan-Dog …. Jan?”
JW - “It’s easy to see, althought we disagree on almost anythng, Joe Walsh is a big fan of Jan Schakowsky, and Jan Schakowsky is a big fan of Joe Walsh.”
JW - “If you asked my collegues, they would list me as one of their favorite members”
JW - “You asked, ‘Do I get a lot of blank stares from other members when I speak?’, I would have to say ‘No’ to that.”
JW - “Call me crazy, but Illinois is going to turn out and defeat Obama here, ‘favorite son’ or not …”
- Team Sleep - Thursday, Jan 26, 12 @ 1:40 pm:
From both: “I have to sit at the same table with this person?!”
Also: “Which staff member is getting fired after the interview is done?!”
- Oswego Willy - Thursday, Jan 26, 12 @ 1:41 pm:
JW - “I do not have a big ego, Joe Walsh doesn’t care one bit about Joe Walsh. Joe Walsh cares about America, and would never put Joe Walsh’s love for Joe Walsh’s America.. above Joe Walsh …”

“there was a technical default in 1979 and interest rates went up as a result”.
Uh, Rep Jan, interest rates were already skyrocketing under Carter’s admin - a person could come away thinking some technicality caused the mini-hyper-inflation that occured at that time. Sheesh.

Anchor - “Here is another email, ‘Dear Congressman Walsh, Why do you alientate all your collegues, waste time in the Illinois Caucus Meeting by bloviating about things not on the agenda, and why do you always eat the last chocolate covered donut when you already had 2 others?’ That was from ‘Jan in Evanston’ … Your response?”

JW - “Let me answer this for Jan …”
- Cuban Pilot - Thursday, Jan 26, 12 @ 2:07 pm:
JW: “I brought Jan with me here today to this woman’s political forum, because well, as odd as it may look, Jan is the only woman in the State of Illinois who doesn’t completely hate me.”
JS: “Well, to be honest with you Joe, the only reason that I don’t completely hate you is because, if it wasn’t for you, I would be the craziest, most controversial, and least liked member of congress from Illinois. So, as long as you continue to sit in Congress, I can continue to look normal by comparision.”
