Whenever you're feeling down in the dumps, distressed at the turn of events in the world or simply empty inside, just remember one thing: you could always live in Chicago, so things could be worse.

But who will indoctrinate the little mush heads into the LGBTEIEIO lifestyle?
About 25 years ago there was a rash of teacher strikes in public school districts. So many districts stayed open by hiring replacements that our then liberal Democrat Governor got a law passed that made it illegal to hire replacements, but didn’t ban striking by public school teachers.
It’s for the children.
The Board of Education should mandate that all students take achievement tests immediately before and immediately after the strike. The results will most likely show a marked improvement over the period.
Everything that has been going on there for the past few years....Rahm’s near-death election experience, rioting over cop shootings....is really all about this teacher’s union.
They are fighting a tooth-and-nail rear guard action to preserve their pension and privilege. Job #1 is to dump Rahm. Even he realizes that this union needs to be de-fanged if the schools have any hope of ever functioning again.

Course with taxes spiking there and no CCW I had planned on NOt going to Rham’s world anyway.
