Will BRUCE rAUNER BE iLLINOIS sCOTT wALKER?

[coljam]

I think both of these assholeshave strong koch ties and hate of teacher unions. Let us not let Rauner get a foot up . We should bury this asshole before he starts to spend any of his ill-gotten gains. Rauner is another walker but with his own money.

1. Not sure. But there is something you clearly need to remove from your op. nt.

[CreekDog]

3. i think he spilled his drink on it

[MineralMan]

In answer to your question, I hope not, but I am worried that it may be the case.

[coljam]

6. Well well

I didnt mean any offence by the term kochsucker other then the fact that they both suck up to the koch brothers.

[City Lights]

7. Fine, but you have been asked to change your wording by more than one person.

And now you've used that word again.

[MineralMan]

8. Whether or not you meant offence, it was taken by some,

including me. Many people on DU see that as a homophobic slur. For that reason, you might want to edit your posts that include that word.

[CreekDog]

9. your post is juvenile

and barely literate at that.

[coljam]

10. Changed

Meant no offence never thought of it that way. The gay people I know use the term all the time.

That sounds like a long ride.

[CreekDog]

19. then what do you have against Illinois' name?

[coljam]

22. Rauner is an anti-union tax cheat!

That ass hat made $53 MILLION in 2 years and paid ZERO TAXES thru some loophole. He also is adamantly against all unions, and his union busting is known in neo-con circles. If he gets elected, Illinois is in truly deep shit.

25. too bad this thread immediately became bogged down the way it did. watch Quinn vs. Rauner:

read the ignorant, insipid youtube responses at the youtube site (I can't get it to print here without showing the direct play figure) then read the much better informed ones at the captiolfax.com link:

http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:v44Y50pxo2MJ:capitolfax.com/2014/04/11/live-video-quinn-vs-rauner-at-iea/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

I was there, and, though a kudos is due to Rauner for showing up, he was SUCH a condescending, lying phony --- I was in the second row and could see him squirm and grimace when off camera --- that it truly sickened me to think that this Romneyoid has an excellent chance of becoming a Walker clone, hell-bent on destroying the collective bargaining process in Illinois, starting with public unions, turning it into another right to work hellhole.

btw, Rauner has even more houses than Romney or McCain, including a ten million dollar pied a terre in NYC

and here's a breakdown from that left wing rag, the Chicago Tribune, of how Rauner used the familiar cap gains-instead-of-personal-income to reduce his taxes from over 30 percent to less than 20, including ZERO SS or Medicare taxes in 2010 or 2011!!!!! ZERO

this is on income of over $100 million for a three year period

27. It will boil down...

to the Chicago Dems to GOTV. Lower state voters are almost 100% TeapubliKKKan, ...I have no idea how bad you have to be to get beat by a Dem downstate...Cheri Bustos kicked out Bobby Shiller (Moline, total POS) but it was close. in order to re-elect Quinn, it will take Chicago and the South suburbs. IF Rauner gets elected...god forbid...he has to deal with an already surly bipartisan Congress.

[Gabi Hayes]

26. to be fair, here's what Rouner paid from 2010-2012.

from the trib article:

Rauner's combined federal tax bill was $20.7 million from 2010 through 2012.....

he paid nothing in Social Security or Medicare taxes in 2010 and 2011

his effective tax rate was less than MINE, and I made, let's say, less than a THOUSANDTH of what he made over those three years

30. good riddance, slavery apologist, Nazi apologist and all around troll
