Jesse Jr. won’t be elected Governor here.

Cook County is only 35% of the vote and the non-Cook Chicago suburbs and rural downstate Illinois won’t go for him. He could be re-elected to Congress later on though.

Watch out corporate America!!! Jesse “No Justic No Peace” Jerkson is ready for another round of shakedown. By the way, I am surprised they didn’t blame Gerge Bush yet.

Off topic
Last night’s episode of The Walking Dead was quite good, aside from one or two minor sub plots that were not totally convincing (the Glenn-Maggie squabble, for example).

It was very interesting seeing Merle and Daryl alone, and great to see Daryl rejoin the group in time to help Rick.

If Obama wasn’t good with JJ Jr. going to the Big House, he wouldn’t be going to the Big House. . . . period.

Whether he goes to the Big House or not is still very much an open question. At this point, everything is “he could be sentenced …”. The prosecutors can recommend any sentence they want to withing the guidelines, but in the end it’s the judge who will decide what sentence he actually gets.

And I fully expect that the judge will either give him probation, or a suspended prison sentence. It’s Chicago – the fix has been in for a long time.

I think you’all are missing something here . .. . .

This prosecution was done with the full approval and support of Attorney General Eric Holder and his boss, Barrack Hussein Obama.

If Obama wasn’t good with JJ Jr. going to the Big House, he wouldn’t be going to the Big House. . . . period. There would be no downside for Obama to call off the Justice Department Hounds chasing JJ Jr. . . .it’s not like we have a News Media in this country who cares about graft and fraud done by a Democrat.

Remember, this is the same dynamic duo who have put the kaboash on the Fast and Furious investigation, and couldn’t be bothered with Black Panthers harassing voters at the polls.

Payback to JJ Senior for his remarks about Obama in 2007-2008?

The former congressman and his wife were dipping into the cash contributed by their supporters at a hefty pace

Seems he fell asleep during his father’s lecture on how to avoid getting caught.

Enough of this mug’s mug shot.

It is not news he is a crook.

It did not take a bunch of cops to know he is a crook.

It is what it is.

The one who replaces him will be a crook.

It is just the cost of doing bussiness in Crooked Commie Chicago Town.

let it go

I’ve always wondered how his father, Jessie Sr., became a multi-millionaire doing good deeds for the poor. I’m certain a number of religious organizations would like to know.

Reading the last paragraph reminds me of a congressional district in Georgia that replaced their scandal-ridden congresswoman Cynthia McKinney with Mensa member Hank Johnson. Remember, this district of geniuses in Chicago re-elected Jackson knowing he was going to prison.
