Stroger Defends Tax Veto, Gives Self A+

This morning, Cook County Board President Todd Stroger appeared on Fox's Good Day Chicago alongside Cook County Commissioner Deborah Sims. Sims, of course, was the swing-vote whose change of heart led to the failure to repeal Stroger's veto of the county tax rollback. While our favorite highlight is the look Jan Jeffcoat gives Stroger at the 6:08 mark while David Novarro sparrs with Stroger. Another one worth noting comes at 8:24 when Stroger vehemently grades himself: "I've done an A+ [job]."

What I found amazing is that when Deborah Sims was talking you could barely see Todd's lips move.

But you missed Bill Beavers' hand stuck up The Toddler's ass as he made The Toddler's lips move!

Todd is really in trouble. He might only get re-elected with 51 or 52% of the vote.

screw the fact that the Toddler was articulate and explained in detail Cook County's budget and fiscal forecast. He is still an "Idiot".

Screw the fact that Debra Sims who's represents one of the poorest district in Cook County which relies on the County Health System more than any other district
she is an idiot for changing her vote. And because Stroger interrupted her once, she is a puppet. But of course Stroger is a puppet too. Because they are all stupid.

And yes Fox News is the scourge of liberals, unless Todd Stroger is on Fox News, then Fox News is Pulitzer Prize worthy.

What I have never seen is Daley being grilled by the press like the do Stroger, but that's because Daley does a much better job than Stroger, even though the city's fiscal problems are far greater. And I googled the poet story about the ministers stealing cash that happened last year that Jeffcoat mentioned and could not find it.

Oh yes alot of things are screwed up in Cook County Government. The problem is it seems like the press only prints those stories. Meanwhile reporters trip all over Daley's dirt to kiss Daley's pink fat Ass. Of course the only person that has the heart to point this out is John Kass,

Suckas

'pink fat Ass'.....LOL

Spook, that image is the biggest appetite suppressant I can think of right now.

Yea well you know I try to refrain from "cyber cursing" but I felt that I had to match the ramped hyper anti Stroger vitriolicism demonstrated with Scooter Libby and the rest of the "northside" But yea I must admit I did out do myself, yea total gross out!
