And Rauner is tearing up the room, throwing things off the science shelves, and creating chaos in the Pk classroom, because of his unreasonable demand of tearing up everyone else’s projects is not being appeased. He really needs to be suspended, if not expelled. That kind of behavior is just not acceptable in the classroom.

Right, because we all know Bobby Rush is/has always been the adult in all situations?
How true. Adult Cullerton develops clean bill to secure federal funds. Madigan adds poison pill, Rauner may not use amendatory veto.

“Coming from someone who spends his time in Congress, that’s gotta hurt.”
Lol, because we know how mature the national legislature is, like with one of the biggest failures in modern political history–the attack on Obamacare, which has been done over 50 times, to no avail.
I see that Rep. Rush suffers from “both sides are to blame-itis.” This would be good on Sunday morning national political shows.
While I’m not saying Madigan is totally blameless, Rauner spent much of his time pushing radical policies, and he’s continuing on this path by trying to wipe out collective bargaining for wages and benefits. He doesn’t get that this was defeated soundly at the grassroots level in local governments, and Right to Freeload, was crushed in the GA.
Does anyone care what Rush has to say about anything….

How did the ethics investigation on the missing funds for computer education training conducted out of the Congressman Rush’s district office turn out?
Chuckle all you want, but Congressman Rush works well with a lot of Republicans on Capitol Hill. One of his closest allies is Congressman Shimkus. He is not just talking out of his rear.
I guess neither Rauner nor Madigan have any jobs or contracts for Rush. He goes to the highest bidder but doesn’t have buyers. Hope Emanuel repays him for his endorsement.

The governor should be sent to time out.

Tell us something we don’t know Bobby.
Although, it is nice to hear him acknowledge the fact.

When Bobby was a kid he was busy blowing things up. At least Rauner only blows up budgets, not buildings.

Anyone who doesn’t see that both Madigan and Rauner are playing a complex and very high-stakes game with sophistication, is thinking like a child.
