Whereas I have more money than you, and

I do proclaim myself to be the greatest governor of Illinois, and
That unions are evil, and
Madigan is the root of all evil, and
I do not have to take questions from the media, and
That I will get my Turnaround,
That black is white and white is black,
That down is up and up is down.

Thank you Mr. Chairman. For years now a growing number of my constituents have been motorcycle enthusiasts — and I have come to know them well. They have honored me with their support and with their friendship. Indeed I can proudly say some of my very best friends ride motorcycles.
However, Mr. Chairman, at this time very unfortunately I have to leave these proceedings in order to preside over a very important meeting of my own committee. But before I leave I do want to say this. These hearings on the Outlaws are in no way what-so-ever a slur upon these great helmet-less people.
Because I can state from my own knowledge and experience — that ABATE members are among the most loyal — most law-abiding — patriotic, hard-working American citizens in this land. And it would be a shame, Mr. Chairman, if we allowed a few rotten apples to bring a bad name to the whole barrel.
Because from the time of the great Johnny Strabler up through the time of Billy and Wyatt right up to the present day – motorcycle riders have been pioneers in building and defending our great nation. They are the salt of the earth and one of the backbones of this country.

Of Turnaround offenders who might well be underground,
They’d none of ‘em be missed — they’d none of ‘em be missed.
Unapologetic statesmen of uncompromising kind,
Such as — Madigan — and Cullerton, and the Dems that they control
And AFSCE shills and Lincoln’s Papers, and also the Museum —
The task of filling up the blanks I’d rather leave to you.
But it really doesn’t matter whom you put upon the list,
For they’d none of ‘em be missed — they’d none of ‘em be missed!
