    So to review: the two flags behind me are authorized for display at state sponsored-events. All others…


  2. - PublicServant - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:28 am:

    Madigan: Jail would be better than listening to this guy continue to ramble.


  3. - JS Mill - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:31 am:

    MJM- “Focus Michael…focus.”

  5. - Grandson of Man - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:34 am:

    Daydream…Will I get indicted?…Yes, no, maybe?


  6. - Jocko - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:34 am:

    Oy, this guy whines more than Rauner.

  9. - Amalia - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:41 am:

    what do you mean we’re not diverse?


  10. - is anyone ever really anonymous? - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:41 am:

    I’m mostly bothered by the fact that the U.S. flag is supposed to be to the left of the state flag if displayed properly. That’s all I can see looking at the photo.


  11. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:41 am:

    “He’s as long winded as Stephen Douglas”


  12. - Just Me - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:41 am:

    Madigan looks around the room trying to find the FBI-planted microphone.


  13. - Perrid - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:42 am:

    “Must. Stay. Awake.”


  14. - Donnie Elgin - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:44 am:

    Durbin to MJM ” Mike, thanks for letting my office work on female diversity of our delegates”


  15. - lake county democrat - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:44 am:

    We have hair-parted on the right AND on the left!


  16. - Boone's is Back - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:45 am:

    “I’ve trained myself to eat an apple a day and destroyed every political enemy in my path. By God, I can teach myself to sleep with my eyes open!”


  17. - Independent - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 9:52 am:

    Ahh, time to ponder life’s deeper questions: Who am I? What is my greater purpose in life? Has anyone actually taken down and passed around the 99 bottles of beer on the wall?


  18. - Interested - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:00 am:

    “This guy, talking, again.”


  19. - Sayitaintso - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:00 am:

  20. - R A T - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:06 am:

    I sooooooo should have brought my own cup like this lady did. NEED. MORE. COFFEE.

    “I shoulda quashed this guy in Springfield 30 years ago”


  22. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:16 am:

    This is what diversity looks like. No really. One of us has a secret identity.


  23. - Flapdoodle - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:18 am:

    Is that really Speaker Madigan or is it a wax likeness?


  24. - Henry Francis - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:22 am:

    Kids these days just don’t know when to stop talking.


  25. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:23 am:

    This guy hasn’t said anything interesting since 1984. No, maybe never.


  26. - Steve - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:23 am:

    MJM: ” It’s times like this that I really miss Danny Solis and Luis Gutierrez.”


  27. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:23 am:

    ===This is what diversity looks like. No really. One of us has a secret identity.===

    Ignoring females when mocking diversity is owning the libs. LOL

    See: Magnificent 7.

    “Caption?”

    “Cut to the chase Senator, my table at Saputo’s is waiting.


  28. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:25 am:

    MJM: (If an apple falls from a tree in the woods and there’s nobody there, does it make a sound?)


  29. - Edgewater Greg - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:26 am:

    Hi, I’d like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn.


  30. - Ron Burgundy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:28 am:

    At my current rate of slumping I should be under the table and out of here in ten minutes…


  31. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:28 am:

    MJM: (Ouch. I wish I hadn’t pulled my pants up so high.)


  32. - Blue Dog Dem - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:28 am:

    “Ya never know when that chandelier has a hidden mic in it”


  33. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:30 am:

    MJM: (When I got in this game, there were only 23 stars on the flag. Ah, those were the days.)


  34. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:36 am:

    MJM: (Is it my imagination, or do those cracks in the ceiling spell out “indictment?”)


  35. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:37 am:

    MJM: (Ugh. Weight of off-center name tag…pulling me down…)


  36. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:40 am:

    MJM: (You’d think with his expense allowance, he’d be able to pass out free No-Doze.)


  37. - Jocko - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:44 am:

    Ten more minutes of this and I will call the FBI to save themselves the trouble and shoot me now.


  38. - Streator Curmdgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:45 am:

    Durbin: “And so, to get more diverse voices in our delegation, I nominate Frank Caliendo.”


  39. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:50 am:

  40. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 10:53 am:

    Durbin: “Diversity is like a box of chocolates…”


  41. - Bilbo Swaggins - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:06 am:

    *I’m mostly bothered by the fact that the U.S. flag is supposed to be to the left of the state flag if displayed properly. That’s all I can see looking at the photo.*

    Maybe everywhere else, but this is the Independent People’s Republic of Illinois.


  42. - Bilbo Swaggins - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:08 am:

    Madigan: Beetlejuice had the best score of any film and I’ll take that to my grave.


  43. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:15 am:

    MJM: (Hmmm. Did I forget to mail in my Illuminati dues?)


  44. - Huh? - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:29 am:

    If I fall asleep, I hope I don’t get the head bobs.


  45. - Huh? - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:30 am:

    If I push my chair back a few more inches, I can rest my head against the wall.


  46. - pool boy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 11:54 am:

    Has anyone else noticed that stain on the ceiling looks like a honey crisp apple? Fascinating.


  47. - Dotnonymous - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:37 pm:

    I didn’t know what a dab was…wow.


  48. - Anon312 - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:43 pm:

    MJM: Well, I… I could be wrong. But I believe diversity was an old, old wooden ship that was used in the Civil War era.

    DD: Mike, are you paying attention?

    MJM: Nope.


  49. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:44 pm:

    ==See: Magnificent 7.==

    No. You see it. It’s the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a long time.


  50. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:50 pm:

    ===No. You see it. It’s the dumbest thing I’ve seen in a long time===

    It’s a mockumentary… I can see why you don’t get it, lol


  51. - Huh? - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:50 pm:

    I lift mine eyes unto the lord, praying for divine intercession, to be released from the toil of a droning politician.


  52. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 12:51 pm:

    “I still can’t believe they wrote checks.”


  53. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 1:20 pm:

    ==It’s a mockumentary… I can see why you don’t get it, lol==

    Eek man. You need to open a window in the room with the modeling glue.


  54. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 1:32 pm:

    ===You need to open a window in the room with the modeling glue.===

    Anyone missing that women bring diversity needs to open their eyes. Then again, you’re a Trumpkin, I can understand your blindness.

    “Caption?”

    “Why couldn’t Stava-Murray run against him and lose? It would be so much easier”


  55. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 1:36 pm:

    MJM (…Cufflinks, stick pin,

    When I step out I’m gonna do you in

    They come runnin’ just as fast as they can

    ‘Cause every girl crazy ’bout a sharp dressed man)


  56. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 2:25 pm:

    ==Anyone missing that women bring diversity needs to open their eyes.==

    Anyone missing that 3 white people, including one middle aged woman and 2 old guys isn’t the “portrait of diversity” people laud these days?

    Give Mapes a call. Your perspective is the kind he’s looking for.


  57. - don the legend - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 2:25 pm:

    *I’m mostly bothered by the fact that the U.S. flag is supposed to be to the left of the state flag if displayed properly. That’s all I can see looking at the photo.*

    If you’re Durbin, Madigan et al, it is left of the state flag.


  58. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 2:33 pm:

    ===Anyone missing that 3 white people, including one middle aged woman and 2 old guys isn’t the “portrait of diversity” people laud these days?===

    For Trumpkins this *is* diversity, you missing it worries me more, LOL

    “Caption?”

    “Ugh. I need to get my new state fair khakis… I keep forgetting.”


  59. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 2:44 pm:

    Willy, no worries. I’m just furnishing the room I apparently own in your head.


  60. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 2:52 pm:

    ===I’m just furnishing the room I apparently own in your head.===

    Meh. You’re my comic relief. Lacking so much self-awareness, you’re a model of true inconstancies. You don’t like being called on it, just like Trump, LOL

    “Caption?”

    “This is what I get for standing in for the Governor”


  61. - revvedup - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 3:54 pm:

    MJM: “If I stare hard enough, I can read that quarter from across the room. Anything but listen to this guy…”


  62. - A guy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 4:06 pm:

    ==Meh. You’re my comic relief.==

    Hmmm. I think I’ll put the couch here.


  63. - Oswego Willy - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 4:14 pm:

    Oh - A Guy -

    Notice you keep making it about me, what, no caption?

    Projection.

    Showing another Trump trait.

    Like I said, you’re truly a model of Trump.

    “Caption?”

    “He’s so long winded, there’s going to be no time for Apple picking at the street market.”


  64. - Streator Curmudgeon - Wednesday, Jul 31, 19 @ 5:12 pm:

    MJM: (Sheesh. At least the guy with the costumes was FUNNY.)
