The itsy, bitsy budget went up the Leaders spout. Down came the Governor and washed the budget out….

“The party was great. The band started playing ‘Macarena’, and they gave me these two maracas and I got to lead the Conga line. Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da da. It was a hoot”

I’m gonna need those TPS reports by the end of the day, MmmKay.

Ok John, but this is the last time today I’ll sing “Sunddenly Seymour” to you. People will talk about our meeting in the back of the chamber to sing songs from “Little Shop of Horrors”…

Ironically, Cullerton is displaying a hand symbol which resembles the American Sign Language sign for “more”. If you doubt, look it up. It’s pretty close. Whether they are discussing more pork or more taxes is anyone’s guess.

“Chris, I gotta tell ya, this guy Collins is a creep. Every time I had to tell him another of his little Commission ideas wasn’t gonna make it, he’d take his hands like this and say, ‘Is it going to take a few of you getting walked out of this building in bracelets to finally get it?’”

John: “So, you see, we just give Quinn enough line, then ‘bam’ with reel him back in!”

I don’t want to do anything that will cause the DOJ to wake me up at 4 AM and put handcuffs on me and take me away to the pokey.

Comment by Yellow Dog Democrat Tuesday, Jun 9, 09 @ 1:32 pm
No, no, no Chris, you misunderstood me. All that talk about being bipartisan was just for the media.
Comment by reality hits home Tuesday, Jun 9, 09 @ 1:40 pm
John: See in public we stand side by side and talk about being bi-partisan … but the rest of the time I think we both agree that we hate each other?
Radogno: Not even in public anymore Johnny boy!

John, singing: This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine. This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it SHINE!

Anon14 - you beat me to it. I also noticed the position of the hands as if reeling in.
GOP leader Ragdano - “John, we have to come up with something, the natives are getting restless.
John, absent-mindedly picking his thumbnail - thinking to self “I wonder what a taratula tastes like? Chicken?”

You’ve got the Super Majority, act like it.
Whose wearing the skirt here, John. Be a man.
Your caucus members keep voting in new programs and it’s time to pay the piper
