• In Illinois Race, a Teaching Career Is Questioned (June 17, 2010)

CHICAGO — A leader of the church in upstate New York where Representative Mark S. Kirk of Illinois claims he worked as a nursery school teacher said on Friday that he had overstated his role there.

The leader, Sally Grubb, a member of the administrative council at Forest Home Chapel, a Methodist church in Ithaca, N.Y., said Mr. Kirk had a limited role while working part-time in a work-study program while he was a student at Cornell University nearly three decades ago.

First Mark Kirk is caught "misremembering" his "war hero" military awards ala Kerry & Blumenthal... and now it turns out he "misremembered" his teaching career too? One of these schools even disputes that Kirk ever worked there!! Shame on the freepers who continue to defend this pathological lying socialist.

The whole point of nominating Jim Jeffords Jr. in the first place was because he was allegedly the lone "electable" Republican in Illinois. Well guess what? He ain't electable, he's polling dead even against the most corrupted Dem on the ballot. Those "unelectable" conservatives on the ballot are polling far better than him in Illinois.

Topinka, Sauerberg, now Kirk. The GOP establishment sure knows how to pick 'em. Resign from the ticket NOW, Congressman Kirk, if you have any integrity left.

Death to RINOs (politically speaking, of course)! I would rather see a CommieCrate win than this RINO!

School Officials Say Candidate Overstated His Role

You mean kind of like the way Obama overstated his role as a 'Constitutional Law Professor', when he was simply a lecturer? Oh, I guess that's something different, at least as far as the Old Grey Lady is concerned.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I don’t know which is the bigger phony. Barry Soetoro or this guy.

[BillyBoy]

Tough call.

[stars & stripes forever]

OK. Who would be a good replacement for Kirk? (Sooner rather than later)

It's time to bring Alan Keyes back to Illinois as the substitute candidate.

[randita]

Only in IL.

[PhilCollins]

If Kirk drops out of the race, Rep. Roskam should run. If that happens, State Sen. John Millner should run for Roskam’s House seat.

[stars & stripes forever]

What about Denny Hastert? Or...how about PhilCollins or Billyboy. They are in the know!

[PhilCollins]

I hope that ex-Speaker Hastert will never run for office, again, because he became more liberal, within the past 10 years. He supported too much unconstitutional pork barrel spending.

[stars & stripes forever]

You didn’t mention anything about PhilCollins or BillyBoy.

[PhilCollins]

I’ll probably never run, statewide, since I couldn’t win. I plan to run for Glenview city council, school board, or library board, in 2011. If I win, I’ll probably run for the state legislature, in 2012 or ‘14. I hope that Bill will also run for a local office, next year.

[stars & stripes forever]

That’s good to hear. You and Bill have political saavy.

Especially true for the Illinois GOP establishment.

BTW, can you show me ONE politician with any integrity?

My view is every single one of 'em are a bunch of dirty rotten corrupt no good mother f*cking bastards. But that's just me.

[Marathoner]

Do we have the combine to thank for being saddled with this loser?

BTW, his cap and tax vote last year was enough in and of itself to disqualify him as far as I'm concerned.
