Sent to me by a friend. Read today's JS article on Aaron Schock attendance in East Peoria to announce the awarding of $410,000 stimulus dollars to "update police camera systems and portable radios" after Schock had voted against the ridiculous stimulus plan. Schock was quoted as saying "Democrat over-spending" does not preclude him from advocating for his district.
Frankly, I care ot for Rachel Maddow or the other guy, Olbermann, I believe. I can visualize them as being on the propaganda team of the losing side in Europe 75 years ago.
Have you seen the list of stimulus funded projects Schock is advocating for? Rather interesting.
See why Illinois is headed for bankruptcy in the very near future: click on the link below to see the report on ridiculous spending in the state. We are so going to be buried in taxes....

Subject: 2010 Illinois Piglet Book Unveiled!
Dear DAVID,
Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) and the Illinois Policy Institute (IPI) released the 2010 Illinois Piglet Book on February 9 at press conferences in Chicago and Springfield.
The Piglet Book has generated media coverage across the state, including television news broadcasts on FOX 32 in Chicago and ABC 15 in Champaign and articles in the Chicago Sun-Times, Chicago Tribune, Decatur Herald & Review, and Peoria Journal Star, to name just a few.
From $353,000 spent on auto racing to $78,066 to promote quail to $6,500 to pay for a tub of live bass, the 2010 Illinois Piglet Book details more than $350 million in state government waste - enough to make any Illinois taxpayer cringe!
