I suppose it would be too much to ask for a link? Also, since IL has 19 House reps it would hard to believe they're all Dem.

Actually forget the link. I'll just add you to my ignore list. I haven't one post from you worth reading.

I know that we are the highest taxed in the country.
I know that we are broke.
I know we rank in the 30's compared to the nation in economic growth.
I know that only 1/3 of Chicago Public School kids graduate with skills necessary to go to college.
An average of 1 child is killed every 8 days.
The Cops HATE their Chief.
4 Governors have been arrested for corruption.
Between 1972 and 1999, an average of one alderman a year was convicted of wrongdoing.

Obama and his followers should move to Chicago. Obamanites will be disappointed in him as he gets exposed in the near future.

There are many real issues to discuss rather than resorting to obvious troll posts such as this. Anyone with even one functional brain cell sees that there is no comparison between anything happening in Chicago and what is happening in Iraq.

"Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?
Body count: So far this year, 503 killed (murdered) in Chicago; 281 killed in Iraq."

Tell me that this statement isn't a weakassed attempt to imply that people that feel that our casualties in Iraq are not justified and that we should pull our troops out, should think we should "pull out" of Chicago because more people were killed there this year than troops in Iraq. Pure trollish nonsense.

Further more it was YOU that mentioned Iraq so my post is on topic.

Michigan don't have to many corupt governors last long they usualy quit.
75% kids that attend public schools in Michigan are still counting on getting a factory job.

My take on Michigan, in my little hick town it's not so bad.
