60. illinois gov rod b

was on the steps of a factory to BACK the workers that were being screwed out of pay by bank of america one night...i went to bed cheering,,,the feds busted him the next morning......ran 'wiretapped tape" of him round the clock,convicted him in the media within hours.....and how much money did he get in this supposed "pay to play" scandal? zero,zilch,nadda...he had the nerve to ask fellow dems to fund raise for him

maybe i have sympathy for him because he was a good gov,maybe because he was always trying little things to make average peops lives better...he refused to raise the income tax in illinois, he wanted to tax businesses that operated in illinois that paid no income tax a tiny 1/4 of 1 % on their gross sales to fund our pensions

he made riding the buses free for seniors.......doesnt seem like much to most of us that can hop in our car and go where we want but for low income seniors it is freeing...they can go anywhr ,anytime...they no longer have to budget their tokens

every child in illinois has access to good healthcare because of him

maybe i have sympathy for him and believe he was wrongly convicted because i rant too,in the privacy of my home with my fam.........i have said terrible things that i would NEVER do,,i call it venting
