City News Rescinds Endorsement of Senator Toi Hutchinson

For the first time in forty-two years of publication and making political endorsements The Kankakee City News is forced to rescind it’s endorsement of Illinois State Senator Toi Hutchinson for U.S. Congress Illinois 2nd District.
Learning of the unethical, if not illegal, spending of campaign funds by Senator Hutchinson to her mother for as, “events scheduling”, the editorial board of the Kankakee City News has no alternative but to rescind it’s previous endorsement of Hutchinson.
“We believe that a public servant should exercise honesty and sincerity in the performing of all duties related to the office for which they have been elected and we believe that the secret practice of Senator Hutchinson in the paying of funds to her mother as her official scheduler violates the public trust. We see no practical difference between the actions of Senator Hutchinson in this practice than we do in that of former U.S. Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. and his wife, former Chicago 7th Ward Alderwoman Sandy Jackson as both acts are in our collective opinions a violation of the public trust.”
It is for that reason that the editorial board of the Kankakee City News announces the formal endorsement of candidate for U.S. Congress Illinois 2nd District Robin Kelly.
While we disagree with Kelly on her stance of limiting the rights of gun owners, we have known Robin Kelly as a fair, honest and sincere individual and believe she will represent the residents of the 2nd Congressional in a fair, honest and above all, ethical manner.

Kind of amazing that they’d cut this out. I believe the sport dates from the ancient Greeks — and wasn’t that the whole point?

Rather than build a Deathstar, the Obama administration should develop a working lightsaber. The lightsaber would then be given, for free, to anyone who relinquishes all of his firearms and his right to own firearms in the future.

Solved.

So after calling Chicago teachers union goons and thugs and declaring that Teacher’s pensions are the cause of the State’s budgetary woes, let’s arm them.

It really is a Coalition of Dunces.

Gun Nuts value firearms over People’s lives.

It’s obvious: This is part of a campaign to soften us up to accept more and higher taxes. That is the implicit message in the Squeezy video. What else could it be?

They better have a primary challenge for him, because I will simply not vote for him, no matter what. He lost me with his last pension proposal. Can you picture me running around after 14/15 year old special education students when I am 67? That would not be pretty, not to mention they would not want to pay my salary anymore at that point, I would be making too much money.
