    ….. and hopefully, out of all of Illinois, this tiny little group of voters that read CapFax are the only ones that realize I am not telling the truth.

    Old timey bank teller meets Montana rancher?
    Yikes. Looks like someone forgot laundry day out at the Fairgrounds.

    Seriously, what’s with the vest lately? Did he lose a bet?


  25. - 37B - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 5:06 pm:

    Someone cut the tags out of his Garanimals.


  26. - 47th Ward - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 5:06 pm:

    You wouldn’t believe these Chinese kids they had working on the assembly lines. No OSHA rules, no worker’s comp, it was beautiful. Watching them work, with no goggles or protective gear of any kind, picking up the crucible like *this* with just a rusty old pair of kitchen tongs, no gloves, no apron. Well I got to tell you, I was impressed.

    The best part? If one of those kids gets hurt and can’t work, they send them back to their hometown in rural whoknowswhere China and they can find ten more children to take their place before the shift even ends. Now I ask you, how can Illinois manufacturers compete with these guys?

    And Mike Madigan refuses to repeal all of those job-killing worker protections that are holding back our economy. I can’t believe I’m losing to that guy.


  27. - Anonymous - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 5:34 pm:

    After I finish shakin’ up Springfield, i’ll have a lot of time on my hands. Beginnin’ mid- January 2019 I could reshape your company in no time. I do not see many jobs here we could not transfer to my private Phillapine island where the workforce is 100% Coolie. Blow your profit margin’s out the wazzou. Know what I am sayin’?


  28. - wordslinger - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 5:36 pm:

    “…As soon as deliveries are made at the front door, you sell it out the back door at a discount. And then, when there’s nothing left, and you can’t get another loan from the bank, or buy anything on credit, you light a match…..”


  29. - A Jack - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 5:53 pm:

    After those veto overrides, I need a hug.


  30. - Arthur Andersen - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 6:06 pm:

    “Like my new dress vest? It’s vintage. Diana picked it up at a yard sale in Winnetka.”


  31. - Huh? - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 6:12 pm:

    You’re stepping over the the yellow line. Why are you stepping over the yellow line? Don’t you remember anything about the safety talk we gave you before you came out on the shop floor? We told you to never step over the yellow line.


  32. - Dr Dean - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 6:32 pm:

    “I have no idea what this governor is talking about…”

    Join the club sir, join that club…


  33. - Henry Francis - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 6:46 pm:

    Trump told me he just walks right up to them like this.


  34. - Michelle Flaherty - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 7:17 pm:

    Bruce: Awww, come on guys, it’s so simple. Maybe you need a refresher course.
    It’s all ball bearings nowadays. Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads. And I’m gonna need ’bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State.


  35. - Almost the Weekend - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 7:21 pm:

    Now I know I’m over the yellow line and could lose my hand, but these are the regulations that are killing our business. Working across the Mississippi you have to see that. Speaking of Iowa you know when the first Ronald Regan dinner is in 2019?


  36. - Anonymous - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 7:29 pm:

    “So when I need a vote or two, I reach in my drawer and pull out a wad like this here, and go find me a few ‘paid for’s’…..gotta git me some bigger hands lately….”


  37. - Anonymous - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 7:31 pm:

  38. - XDNR - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 7:51 pm:

    “I apologize if you have a contract with the state and haven’t got paid, I’m just trying to squeeze the beast”.


  39. - XDNR - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 8:10 pm:

    “This pretty much sums up my accomplishments as governor and I’m being generous”.


  40. - Justbored - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 8:19 pm:

    “Then this walker sneaks up behind Rick….”

    Now look over here. Can you visualize the details of my idea? You gotta be quick. Let me repeat.


  46. - My New Handle - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 9:58 pm:

    … and I put my hands like this so one knows what the other is doin’. Sometimes it works, but Madigan put some kinda force field between them.


  47. - VanillaMan - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 10:21 pm:

    Although I claim to be a Republican, I expect all Illinois taxpayers to pay higher taxes to pay for aborting humans this size or smaller.


  48. - LIberty - Tuesday, Nov 14, 17 @ 10:34 pm:
