* This is just too good to pass up…

Have fun, but let’s not allow this to devolve into some silly DC talking points flame war, please. Thanks.

  9. - truthteller - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 6:47 am:

    You take this question. No, you take it.
    How do we explain why it’s good that the President wants to raise taxes on the rich, and you want to give CME a tax break?
    How do we explain why it’s good that the President is trying to preserve jobs for teachers while you’re laying off librarians.
    You answer. No, you answer.


  10. - anon sequitor - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 6:50 am:

    If Rahm thinks being Mayor of Chicago makes him better than the President, then he has another think a coming.

  35. - soccermom - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 9:35 am:

    MrJM gets my vote. And QTS — the First Lady holds degrees from Princeton and Harvard. I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that she has a fairly good grasp of basic English grammar. I don’t know why you would think otherwise.


  36. - Siyotanka - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 9:40 am:

    You little, little man.


  42. - Lake County - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 10:38 am:

    You learned who the president’s real chief of staff was in D.C….if one of those speed cameras pops up near my house, you’ll find out in Chicago as well.


  43. - IrishPirate - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 10:44 am:

    Hmmmm, is it a constitutional requirement that the Mayor of Chicago be under 5″7′ tall?


  44. - Timmeh - Wednesday, Oct 26, 11 @ 10:49 am:

    Why’d you leave us Ron? Everything has gone downhill since you left.
