…I getcha…every time they ask me a question with the word “Madigan” in it, I’m supposed to answer using the word “Obama” (and maybe “Trump/Rauner” thrown in for good measure). Don’t worry boss, I’ll show them how independent of you I am.
We are honored that he learned to vote Present here as a State Senator and we taught him advanced deficit spending so he would fit right in in Washington.
But in all honestly, never forget the fact that Madigan openly mocked Obama after 2004, sarcastically calling him “The Messiah,” which was the favorite put-down of right wing talk radio at the time.
The latest limited edition collectible from The Franklin Mint, it can be yours for the low, low, price of your soul and your vote. Or 3 easy payments of 29.95!

Did a former U.S. Attorney get one?

GT, I sent him an e-mail. Haven’t heard back.

My first thought too.
If Drury got one, $50 says he returns it “out of principle.”

I think Scott Drury would point out that Obama’s vision included meaningful gun control, not legislation that looks like gun control but does nothing.

Drury would also likely say that Obama wants fair election maps - but not the IL Dems.

Only time will tell if this gift is appreciated by the members.

Those cards are going to get tossed with a speed and enthusiasm usually only seen at a five-year-old’s birthday party.

What is imprinted on the cheese knife that comes with it?
- VanillaMan - Wednesday, Apr 11, 18 @ 3:22 pm:
The cheese knife is imprinted with Joe Biden’s quotes.

I just saw Drury on QVC selling it for “the unbelievable price of 4 easy monthly payments of $19.99″

You should see the matching Koosie to keep drinks chilled.

I never realized what a weird or child-like signature Madigan has. I wonder what a signature analysis expert would say about it.

Hey Scott…..No Soup for you.

Product of childhood penmanship classes and lifelong use of writing instruments rather than typing.
