Liberal, Democrat governor; liberal, Democrat legislature; tax hikes…and what do you get? From the Illinois Policy Institute:
In a trend that continues to worsen, more Illinoisans found themselves unemployed in the month of July.
Illinois lost more jobs during the month of July than any other state in the nation, according to the most recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report. After losing 7,200 jobs in June, Illinois lost an additional 24,900 non-farm payroll jobs in July. The report also said Illinois’s unemployment rate climbed to 9.5 percent. This marks the third consecutive month of increases in the unemployment rate.
Illinois started to create jobs as the national economy began to recover. But just when Illinois’s economy seemed to be turning around, lawmakers passed record tax increases in January of this year. Since then, Illinois’s employment numbers have done nothing but decline…
This is entirely unsurprising – in fact, it was predicted in many quarters. Why on earth should business expand or even remain in Illinois if they are to be taxed higher than elsewhere? Do you liberals out there really think that higher taxes are just so much water off the business duck’s back? I mean, seriously – tell us: did you really expect that things would get better after a tax hike?
Over in Wisconsin the conservative, Republican governor and legislature took the opposite course – and it is paying off in jobs growth. Anyone want to bet that some of those new, Wisconsin jobs are old, Illinois jobs? Not like its all that far to move. This isn’t rocket science – make something more expensive and there will be less of it being used…Illinois made having employees more expensive, so less employees are being used.
As I’ve said before, the dichotomy between the States being governed by liberalism and those by conservatism will be immensely instructive for a generation of Americans. In practical application, the people are seeing the results. Those States with the most liberalism are doing worse than those States with the most conservatism…and as time goes on, this will merely become more pronounced…and when the next election rolls around, I think we’ll see some startling results in the liberal States.

I would be interested in hearing people’s opinion on Obama’s insistence that the only date possible to give his lecture on jobs was the same day as the GOP debate. Considering that his vacation took precedence over his “plan”, and that it’s been a week since he’s been back from vacation, it seems strange that he picked that day and time to lecture everyone. In the aftermath of Irene, and considering that Obama told everyone that as soon as he got back from vacation he would unveil his magic plan, wouldn’t yesterday or today be the perfect time to inform the nation on the recovery efforts and to lay out his bold vision?
This guy is absolutely worthless. His lecture will be nothing more than focus group tested buzz words and more failed keynesian ideas. He could phone this one in.
As Yogi Berra said, “it’s deja vu all over again:.
Can you imagine what this guy’s poll numbers would be if more people were actually paying attention?
Spook
IF people were paying attention barry soetoro would be fighting ICE for deportation to his kenyian homeland.
Illinois Govenor, Pat Quinn won 3 of 102 counties in the 2010 election. Alexander, St. Claire and I’ll let you guess the last one. We are not realy a blue state. Not when one county decides everything.

Appeals Court Rules It Is Not Illegal To Film Police 010911top2
Despite the mass hoax still being promulgated by both the mainstream media and local authorities across America, the First Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that it is not illegal for citizens to videotape police officers when they are on public duty.
“The filming of government officials while on duty is protected by the First Amendment, said the Court,” reports Daily Tech.
“The filming of government officials engaged in their duties in a public place, including police officers performing their responsibilities, fits comfortably within these principles [of protected First Amendment activity].,” said the Court. “Gathering information about government officials in a form that can readily be disseminated to others serves a cardinal First Amendment interest in protecting and promoting the free discussion of governmental affairs,” stated the ruling, adding that this has been the case all along, and that the right to film police officers is not just restricted to the press.
