* How about a caption contest? This is Joe Walsh. No, not the freshman congressman. This is the Joe Walsh we all knew before last year’s election pushed that other Joe Walsh into our brains…
Do your very best to keep your answers Illinois-centric, please. Thanks.

Man, and I thought things were bad out here in California. Illinois is more mind-altering than anything I ever did in the 70s.

Dear Joe Walsh,
I was born here in the city with my back against the wall. Nothing grows and life ain’t very pretty, and no one’s there to catch you when you fall.
Yours truly,
Joe Walsh

We know this Joe Walsh …he is not the child support deadbeat GOPer mope congressman…
BTW did you hear Gags Brady is embracing the “Occupy” movement. That will really put in good graces with all the fat cat bankers when he puts the arm on them for 2012.
Sweet move Gags

It’s survival in the suburbs

Dependent kids don’t have much pity
When you’re caught, that’s when you overreach

As crazy as I look that deadbeat Congressman with the same name is crazier.

An ordinary, average guy in Illinois makes $29,000?
So much for playing that song in Chicago next time, I guess I ain’t no ordinary, average guy.

Hey, don’t you know it’s a waste of your day
Caught up in endless solutions
That have no meaning, just another hunch
Based upon jumping conclusions
Caught up in endless solutions
Backed up against a wall of confusion
Living a life of illusion

Really, CFS. Well maybe we can start a movement for those who are truly willing to “buck the current system” (i.e., have your “average” Jane and John Q. Public send them a couple of dollars from all across the country–and give them OUR support). And by taking out the “middle” man like the current political organizations and those they employ and to whom they otherwise “cater” out of the transaction, it might result in enough to actually get someone elected.

Both of them–and many of us now–are probably singing the same song:
Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can’t make the same mistake this time
We are the children
The last generation
We are the ones they left behind

A look if discontent as Joe Walsh realizes what shows up when you google his name. Singer thinking of changing him surname to Santorum.
