  3. “Behind you, Governor, is Arne Duncan. Look. Maybe we can finally put to rest these Payton Prep rumors…”

  4. I’m a big fan of Mary Ann’s and I don’t want to be permanently banned so I will take a pass.

  7. “How wide is your latitude with the GA?”

  8. So, Governor Rauner, you announced a series of cuts totaling $400 million from a budget you have promised to veto, I’m confused. Can you explain?

    And a follow-up, even with $400 million in cuts, you’d still need to cut almost $3 billion more to balance the Democrats’ budget. You couldn’t manage to cut $26 million from the current budget without backtracking, why should anyone believe you’re serious now when you talk about draconian cuts?

  9. “So, how does the Democrats phony budget compare to your phony budget proposal?”

  11. “I’d offer you a glass of wine but I wouldn’t want to insult you. I’m in the process of reorganizin’ my wine cellars and I’m afraid the best thing I have here is only worth about $75,000.”

  12. Governor, do you want a Channel 11 studio pass for Friday to watch me take you apart when I appear on Chicago Tonight Week In Review?

    Comment by Cook County Commoner Wednesday, Jun 3, 15 @ 12:17 pm

  13. Maryann, thank you for the opportunity to explain my agenda. You see, I’m not anti-middle class. But, in talking with my buddies at the country club, the consensus is that Illionois’s middle and lower classes are spoiled. If one of them gets injured on the job, instead of thanking us for allowing them to work when they were healthy, they want us to pay them compensation benefits for doctors and such. We need to turn Illinois around, turn back the clock if you will, if Illinos wants to remain competitive with countries where the little workers have no rights.

  18. “Governor, is that THE Carhartt coat hanging up there?”

    Comment by Oswego Willy Wednesday, Jun 3, 15 @ 12:35 pm
