Thankfully, Madigan does not control the weather
Thursday, Jun 23, 2016 - Posted by Rich Miller * Heh…
It’s obviously not a joking matter to the folks who were injured or suffered property damage, so I’ll just apologize right now in case Scott’s tweet upsets anybody. But dark humor is all we’ve got left in this state. [Headline was changed after a couple of funny comments were posted.]

Hey, if Madigan controls President Obama, why not the weather too???
- Dee Lay - Thursday, Jun 23, 16 @ 1:46 pm:
Madigan and the vorticities he controls.

Probably not a good idea to joke about these kinds of things. It’s been a rough couple years in some regions.

It’s clever and funny not because of the victims of the weather, but because of our joke of a Governor and his followers that treat Madigan as an unaddressable force of nature.

Visited employees at DHS. They’re helping ensure the state better serves our most vulnerable. Thanks for your work!–
That’s just not funny.

He’s going to sites of the damage tomorrow. Look for more tweets, hugs, and shakin’ of the head. Hopefully someone, or several someone’s will also challenge him on things such as HB2038.

Last night, I thought Madigan did pretty well around where I live. The tornados skipped around my town, hitting on either side.

Dark humor indeed - but I grimly chuckled at its truth.

Well those were Republican majority areas where the tornado hit… so I’m just saying….
- Joe M - Thursday, Jun 23, 16 @ 3:08 pm:
None the less, tornadoes are corrupt. Tornadoes are dictators.

Madigan was good to the Democrats in Chicago.

Where can I find a written copy of Crain’s interview with Rauner?

We learned a couple years ago that Mr. Speaker didn’t control the weather when you-know-who’s area got clobbered.

When IEMA’s Sat telephones do not operate, & their is a crises where there is no communication available, perhaps mjm will then call a bill to appropriate funds to pay that vendor..as of right now, that service, expires next week, and it will be shut off too…for lack of payment,,,,hmmmmm
