Well ain’t that just so Chicago
Nah, just your standard pervert, he was screwing a 16 year old girl.
Blacks not only can be Racists....they can also be Sexual Offenders too
“Is he gay? Transgendered? Cross dresser? Any of those would seal the win.”
None of the above, but he’s one of those “candidates” who will roll up his sleeve and place his arm right next to each of his “constituents” and they will say “Yup, he’s in, he’s one of us, a bona fide Holder’s person.” And he will be re-elected until the father of one of the girls he raped breaks his neck or he dies of old age. So sad, but so true!
This article epitomizes what a mess our country is these days. No matter how sleazy you are today you have an even chance of attaining a position in elected office. A majority of Americans want the government gravy train to keep rolling and if a politician can keep giving out the goodies it doesn’t matter if that person is a scumbag.
Perfectly said!
....is there not ONE person of integrety and honor that You could put into this position?
We are so tired of scofflaws, sex criminals, reprobates and outright crooks "representing" We the People
He has the qualifications for a dem run...
He has the qualifications for a dem run...
If the morons in Illinois will reelect a loony nut in a marshmallow factory by a landslide, I don’t think they’d see anything wrong with electing a sex offender. Skin tone, freebies and government handouts are all that matter. This ain’t yo daddy’s America anymore.
If he wins, which is almost a shoe-in, he will fit right in with the rest of the Demodummies.
What are people thinking, if at all?
The Chicago way...4 years in office followed by 4 years in prison followed by 4 years in office..etc.
I ask you: what better credentials could you ask for?!!!
Response: Only in America.
Nah, just your standard pervert, he was screwing a 16 year old girl.
Again?
With credentials like those, how can he lose?
Gee... child molester, convict, felon, and he wants to be a congressman?
Great resume for the job; he’ll fit right in!
