READER COMMENTS CLOSED UNTIL JULY 5TH

Friday, Jun 29, 2007

Needless to say, I’ll be back when the special session begins. Where they go, I go.

If you’re really upset at the governor’s special session idea, then channel your anger by purchasing one of our items at our charity store. Rather than sit and wonder whether the governor is a pathological liar, an incredible goofball or “way ahead of everyone else” and bound to win this great struggle against the dark forces of evil that stand in his way, do something truly positive and buy something. All profits will be donated to Sojourn House.

If you buy something and you still aren’t completely purged of bad feelings, and still want to talk, then head on over to Illinoize. I’m sure the bloggers over there will have plenty to say.

Take care and have a great 4th!!!

Also, we did this last year and I think it’s appropriate to make it an annual event. The video from last year is no longer availabe, so here’s a different band. Ladies and gentlemen, our National Anthem…
