This is a devastating blow to the elderly and disabled. Congratulations, South Jacksonville, on a great celebration and thank you for a wonderful weekend event. Government provided thousands (millions?) of jobs during the Depression. You teatards may go for his phony line, but those of us that are sane find these people scary, unethical and just plain disgusting. And with shutting down jobs, he will create more government-reliant people (Democrat voting pools). If the money goes to those Repuke governors, they’re going to use it for anything but creating jobs in their states so they can complain that it didn’t work, just like they did the first time. Why don’t you try un-Friending them? Let the police alone. Many jobs will come from one road project or renovating a school. People need to stop riding their bikes and walking their dogs on Baldwin Road. What did you think would happen? You have a less-than-efficient work ethic and behave like hillbillies with big checkbooks. The assistant state’s attorney quit over it. The outcome is in doubt. Wow, that debate was the scariest one yet. I just saw the water plant on Channel 20 news. It wouldn’t be so bad if the zany European economic and social theories that are destroying Europe merely kicked old Europe into the dustbin of history. This area has never elected a Republican until now. He really has little choice. I would gladly pay $10 to tour the ship and learn a little more of the history of our country. This guy is not to be trusted. When asked what they would bring to the White House if elected, none of the candidates said honesty, compassion, bravery, education and, most of all, some form of common sense. Well, how nice of the president to offer up a jobs package for union labor. Or they may be playing video games on their computers or chatting in some chat room. Even someone as unskilled and dumb as you can drive a nail, pick up trash, clean a Porta-Potty or make the coffee runs, etc., etc. Maybe if you’re so tired of cleaning dog excrement off your kid’s shoes, you should teach them to watch where they are walking and also maybe put a fence up if you don’t want dogs in your yard. They will not all be union jobs. Not all people pick up after their dog does defecate. I think he stinks at it, but that is beside the point. They finally told every voter their healthcare plan if you don’t have health insurance for whatever reason then die, and die quickly. As long as the money goes directly to the construction companies that are going to be doing the hiring, then Obama’s jobs plan will work. It was an awful experience for my family and my friends who had handicapped children. The fact that I have to explain that to a person of your age that actually votes like you’re a 10-year-old is really frightening and shows you don’t have the common sense of a cockroach. Someone has been stealing my solar lights and decorations in Murrayville. Her dad tore a map of the USA out of a magazine and cut it into small pieces, then told her to go to her room and see if she could put it together. Simple, cut back entitlement. The smug, stuffy people who demand political correctness in others simply cannot stand to be laughed at. Place speed humps in the parks instead of wasting money spreading useless stones on the streets. However, the multi-faceted crisis there is now severely testing the American economy and our institutions and challenging American pragmatism and know-how. Watson says the General Assembly hasn’t been consulted about the need for cuts and that Sen. I certainly wish I had my last vote for governor back. Duh. Great question from debate: “Out of every dollar that I earn, how much do think I deserve to keep?” Never will you hear a Democrat asked that. I’m just pointing out some facts about the situation. After all, he is making the “hard choices” that we keep hearing about. Obama’s jobs plan is nothing but another attempt to raise taxes on corporations and the rich so progressive liberals like Obama and Pelosi can continue their radical wasteful spending of tax dollars. One told me to just take off work. After watching the Republican debate last night, I’m ready to move to Canada. Fact is dogs live on earth. They could do it for the victims of Hurricane Irene. I heard a good one on the scanner the other day in Beardstown. This has to stop. When unemployed people get jobs, they pay taxes and spend money in the economy, and businesses benefit from that. The lazy and stupid will go to other states with benefits, thus Illinois no longer foots their bills. Also, what exactly is the governor supposed to cut when the budget was so severely underfunded. I am a senior disabled citizen of Jacksonville. Governor Quinn has issued another budget cut for the state of Illinois, targeting the Circuit Breaker program for the elderly and disabled. May you have a wonderful retirement, Judge Olson, that you so richly deserve. I for one am very disappointed. By making no parking on the west side of Lincoln Avenue by IC, you are just pushing the problem out further to the small narrow streets that will not be able to handle it. You suave? Catch my drift? Or am I being to obtuse? I wonder if State’s Attorney Chris Reif will do with Mark Pryer what he does with all the other hard-core criminals and let him out on probation. Construction workers spend money at restaurants, bars, hotels and other businesses in the area. Don’t you mess with this old man, you stupid dogs. It only showed that there were many less 16-year-olds driving because of the laws. If it doesn’t stop I’m going to go out there and shoot them off of my roof and eat them for breakfast. Yes, perhaps we should not follow the Governor Perry model of handling the economy in Texas and follow the Illinois and California models of permanent third-world style debt or, better yet, the unsustainable and catastrophic European model. Certainly AFSCME, which wholeheartedly backed Governor Quinn in the election, now supports him in his decision to live within our means by cutting costly programs and institutions. What I want to know is where were all these JDC and others who are being threatened with layoffs in Jacksonville when Capitol Records went out? I wonder when all the people of this country are going to wisen up and realize that the Obama administration and none of the government are not for the people and the Muslims are trying to destroy us. If global warming is man-caused, it is likely from all the hot air that Al Gore and his minions continue to spew out. A little girl wanted to know what the United States looked like. Sullivan said the governor would need to make a very good case to close facilities. It would be awesome to see the likes of Stephanie Abrams, or Heather Tesh in their birthday suits. That’s a sign of how disgusted people are with the liberal socialists. I was told people were wondering what Quinn makes. Then he brags about all the jobs he created but doesn’t mention how all that government money made him able to create those jobs. They have enough to do already, plus their order from one of the local eateries is probably ready to be picked up. Please, let Sgt. Talk about taking the path to easy cash. You will be missed. The places he is proposing to cut are exactly where the big money is. Isn’t that just wonderful? The legislators are going to decide to have the health-care exchange get $70,000 from the insurance industry. We were trampled by beer drinking idiots who had no compassion for us. I sure hated to see that Judge Olson is retiring. Letters of immediate termination and the benefit in lowering the qualification amount by over $5,000. You can all point to some examples of other areas that should be cut, and I would agree, but you have to cut the big ticket items if you are going to make a dent in the problem. is unfair to the working public. There has to be a rise in revenue, also. You people are whacked out to back this nut job. If 9/11 was an inside job, the plans were likely printed on the back of Obamas birth certificate. All the while demanding more, more, more on your contracts and constantly reach for that golden egg of disability or lawsuit. I think if more health insurance companies decide to drop us, they should have to pay all our premiums back to us. However, many vehicles travel twice that fast, especially going to and from the golf course at Nichols Park. The stimulus package proposed by President Obama should go a long way toward shoring up political support for the administration from powerful labor unions, but will it really jump start the economy? That’s the question. It’s clear to me and everyone here that Governor Quinn’s idea to close state institutions to keep the state from plunging further into debt was brought about by secret communications to him by the Republican Committee of Misinformation and Deception. Bob Turner defeated Democratic state Assemblyman David Weprin on Tuesday. Remember the guy that shot his TV because of Bristol Palin’s bad dancing? He should have waited until last night’s debate when Perry said the first stimulus created zero jobs when he took more stimulus money than any of the other Repuke governors. If he is so smart, why doesn’t he take out his box of crayons and write down $58.9 million of the waste, fraud and abuse so we can fix it? If all he is doing is to mouth off, tell him to shut up and let real people solve the problems. A lot of the government are going right along with what they are doing. The speed limit in both Nichols and Community Park is only 15 mph. How can a guy like Perry call himself a good Christian teavangelical pro-lifer on one face then brags about all the people he’s put to death, innocent or not, on the other face. After a few minutes she returned with the map correctly fitted and taped together. Please, next year set up a spot for us people who have to sit. I hear on the radio today that a Caterpillar guy in Peoria said that this economy cannot be fixed by cuts alone. I don’t know why there is all of this spooky secrecy going on at the FutureGen worksite. Who’s the NIMBY now? I have to agree the no matter how much you believe it is wrong to protest a soldier’s funeral, the Westboro Baptist Church has that right to do so by that soldier defending freedom of speech and expression. I am getting so sick of seeing Sam McCann whining about waste, fraud and abuse. I’m a 73-year-old life-long Democrat. Let them grieve and move forward in peace. To the South Jacksonville planning committee, I was at the Concert in the Cornfield Saturday night. The best way to fight against political correctness is by humor, both subtle and overt. Parking violations will cost you more, but it’s OK for you to keep running stop signs, not using turn signals, texting while driving, et cetera. It’s a bad idea to give tax cuts to the middle-class and working poor again. Lord help us if those candidates are the best the Republican Party can do. Bad idea. Those words really hurt. I was watching the DirectTV commercial with the little fairy flitting around instructing people on the merits of satellite and strangely I immediately thought of our president going around teaching about the merits of his jobs program. Talk about a missed opportunity to educate the public. However; I do not agree with Quinn. Wow. The GOP debate is a sad display. Thank you to the teachers who are not piling on homework during homecoming week. Did you realize that? The assistant state’s attorney wanted to put a repeat behind bars, and Reif went over his head and gave the person probation. Thirty miles away I filled up for $3.39. Don’t you wish Schock and other politicians would listen to him? Everyone in Jacksonville should be up in arms about the price of gas in town. Well, I looked it up, and in this pay period he grossed $14,784.33, this year so far $128,300.79. You take the right to protest a soldier’s or anyone else’s funeral away you open up a Pandora’s box for other things not to be protested in this country and we lose our right to freedom of speech and expression. The ship docked at Meredosia closes at 5 p.m. Bad driving is out of control in this town and we’re worried about parking violations. Kinda funny that Quinn is not going after the bigger money positions/wastes such as the fluffed up DOT, state police troopers, SOS police, DHS, DCFS, Department of Corrections — those seem to be the overplumped and sometimes unnecessary jobs that pay the higher salaries and produce the more fraudulent claims and injuries/predicaments. Maybe you should see a doctor also cause it don’t take much effort to clean dog excrement from your child’s shoe. They may call it contributions to their elections but I call it outright bribes. Please return them. He’s done that before. That’s the only right thing to do. The dad was surprised and asked how she had finished so quickly. Just a positive little note for Jacksonville. Get a life. Sheesh. Jacksonville Police, if you want some extra revenue, patrol the park. To those who are piling on homework, can you not adjust your lesson plans for one week out of the year? Perhaps homecoming brings back painful memories for you as a student, but some kids want to participate and enjoy the activities this week. Dogs bark, dogs defecate in other people’s yards. Really? I think Penthouse or Playboy should try to put money out there to get the girls of The Weather Channel to do a photo layout. They make such a racket I can’t even sleep. He’s a lying hypocrite who clearly thinks he lives in a bubble, but his skeletons are dancing out of his closet. He is getting rid of jobs and enhancing freeloaders’ entitlements, thus rewarding the lazy. They’re too dumb to even know the difference, but he has to put tax cuts in, or no Repuke will vote for it, though they don’t seem too keen on giving anybody that makes less $100,000 a dime, and those of you that support those idiots don’t deserve a dime. That is almost half of what I make a year at JDC in one pay period, and we are closing down. The outcome of the struggle between zany old Europe and dynamic America is very much in doubt. I don’t know where these bird dogs keep coming from, but I’m sick of it. The article in Wednesday’s paper about how all the new driver’s license laws has lowered the number of fatal accidents in 16-year-olds did not show that the reason for that was the stricter requirements. The fact is he is now dead and gone, a tragic loss, and he has family. I’m not afraid of RFID chips, but I’m not going to risk my pet’s life for something that knowingly can cause cancer in animals. Besides The Weather Channel girls, I think Penthouse or Playboy should try to do photo layouts of the girls of CNN and Fox News — again all proceeds could go to helping FEMA with their disaster relief fund that is supposedly going to go broke. It doesn’t matter anymore whether he was fighting for your freedom like some of you like to believe or whether he was fighting for huge global corporations and big oil. Infrastructure jobs after World War II provided a healthy tax base that pulled us out of the deepest debt we had known at that time, and right now the country would look like 1932 if it weren’t for the social safety net that Republicans are trying to rip out from under us. I know they’re not that expensive but we did buy them and we’d like to have them back. Unless you can’t stand the smell and then if you can’t how did you change your child’s diapers? A lot of other things in the world far more pressing and serious than kids stepping in dog excrement and you have to clean it off. I am, by no means, defending the governor. Wow. A police officer was dispatched to a person’s house to tell them to stop harassing another individual on Facebook. He is in the labor unions’ pockets, and he needs this for their support. What is it they don’t want us to know? To whom it concerns, the next time Meredosia has a visiting ship, could the public be given a fair opportunity to visit the site? Closing at 5 p.m. The men working the ship were rude when asked why such short hours. Stop voting, you idiot. Most working people cannot get off work and there by that time. Whoever takes care or cleans sure does a great job. So Paradiso operates illegally from day one, and the city is going to reward them? I find it odd that Rep. So, it is left to him to do that. Tobin rest in peace. Vote this man out of office before it’s all too late. In that respect, he invented man-caused global climate change just like he invented the Internet. Everyone appreciates your hard work, thoughtfulness and planning. Falling over us and spilling beer on children and adults. I almost hit someone this morning. This is certainly a huge loss for Morgan County and the 7th Circuit. They keep flying around and landing on my roof in the middle of the night. Come on, state workers. She replied, on the other side was a picture of Jesus and when I put him back, then our country just came together. In fact, I think most of America is waiting for Obama to drop the other shoe. Were they absent for the budget making process? I clearly remember statements from members of the General Assembly that they knew they were not appropriating enough money to operate the state ‘as is.’ The governor, as the executive, is in charge of managing the budget.
