(THE COMMENT: Repute REPUGNANT “republican” Rauner as a DOUBLE AGENT Political Miasma The Republican Party of the 11th Ward of Chicago repudiates Bruce Rauner as a Democratic Party shill. RAUNER IS AN INFILTRATOR, a party-crasher working for the Democratic Party. The Democrat Party employs this Machiavellian strategy for decades. It is not just because he signed the Trust bill (SB31). He also promotes Islam over Christianity regarding advisers in Springfield. He is pro abortion. He also signed The Automatic Voter Registration Law, which makes our government automatically register anyone who updates their drivers license or state ID, as a voter. Bruce who amongst many lies, also said he wasn’t going to be involved in social issues, supports the deranged concept of “homosexual marriage”. Furthermore, public record shows that Bruce has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to several liberal Democrats such as Richard M. Daley, Ed Rendell, the ACLU and Planned Parenthood. He is married to a liberal female who worked for Barack Obama, and brags that she and her husband Bruce are social justice warriors. The Republican Party of the shamelessly and notoriously corrupt 11th Ward of Chicago declares Bruce Rauner as a political cancer that has metastasized from Chicago throughout our United States of America, via the political schooling of the massively corrupt Daley family. Of course, this is all with nefarious collaboration of the Chicago press. Our United States of America is in her second civil war, although it is rather silent; Liberals are annihilating us Conservatives. We despise Bruce Rauner as repugnant and everything that is wrong with USA, politically. TRUST us. Carl Segvich – 11th Ward Republican Party Committeeman, Chicago)

http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2017/08/il-gop-warns-not-to-believe-misinformation-circulating-about-immigration-law.html
(THE COMMENT: We need a real conservative Republican candidate for Governor in this primary. One with some kind of elective office experience, as a decent size city mayor, or as a county chairman or sheriff, something like that, if we don’t have a good congressman or state legislator to run. Rauner will be defeated next November if he gets the nomination. This is just a fact, not just a wish. He maintained the tolerance of the GOP base until this summer, but his several capitulations this summer have killed whatever good will he had built up in the GOP. There is no reason for us to be enthused with him next November, so he cannot win. The GOP needs to recognize what it failed to recognize with the Mark Kirk seat in 2016 and the Percy seat in 1984: sometimes a candidate is lost before the election even arrives, so your best bet is to find some good new blood to run in the primary. We should’ve run Corcoran in 1984. We should’ve run Jack Ryan in 2004. We should’ve run James Marter in 2016 (or found a county chairman or sheriff to run instead)…Our only hope of saving the executive mansion – for this critical term that contains the next redistricting map – is if someone other than Bruce Rauner is the GOP nominee.)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— A Clear Reading of SB 31 Reveals Illinois is Now a Sanctuary State – John Biver
https://illinoisfamily.org/politics/clear-reading-sb-31-reveals-illinois-now-sanctuary-state/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It is not difficult to understand the long-running dream of Leftists to import more future Democratic Party voters from other countries. Some of their most loyal supporters will be those who broke federal law to come here and were then protected by the Democratic Party. Leftists are talented when it comes to the strategic manipulation of language. Just as centuries-old mainline Christian doctrine is now referred to as “hate,” illegal aliens are referred to as “undocumented immigrants.” Tolerance now means intolerance. The “Affordable Care Act” made health insurance unaffordable for millions of Americans. The “Trust Act” means you can trust that we don’t care if you’re here illegally. As “blue” as Illinois is, Democratic Party leaders and their supporters know that even here you must be careful with language. And if you alter SB 31 enough, you can even deny it’s a sanctuary bill. Some people are upset that the ruse didn’t work.)

— Cardinal Cupich praises tax credits in school funding bill, other groups criticize – Craig Wall (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that if I my parents had sent me to a public grade school, I, like them, would promote dependency on government and on charity, LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, race and gender based preference giving, age discrimination, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, etc. My outstanding parents saved Crete-Monee School District 201-U (http://www.cm201u.org/) lots of money during the 1950s and 1960s by sending my brother and me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest to stay with the Missouri Synod. Because my parents did that, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always demonized, denigrated, and condemned a) my parents as being undeservedly filthy rich and b) my brother and me as being born with silver spoons in our mouths, as having always been privileged, and as being undeservedly filthy rich. )

— Dunbar’s Class of 1967: ‘Fifty and Fabulous’ – Mary Mitchell (DIERSEN: Crete-Monee High School Class of 1966 held its outstanding 50th reunion last year at the Lincolnshire Country Club in Crete. Of the 200 graduates, 100 responded to the event questionnaire, 67 attended one or more of three weekend events, and 31 spouses/guests attended one or more of the events. Sadly, more than 48 of the 200 have passed away. I was one of the few who had attended all three of the previous reunions – the 25th in Beecher, the 20th in Matteson, and the 10th in Homewood. One of my classmates, Dennis Peters from Morris, ran for state representative in 1998.)

— Gurnee says no evidence of reported Klan activity – Kerry Lester (DIERSEN: Who would come to my defense if the anti-Trumps succeed in shutting down www.gopillinois.com and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails because they include links to articles posted at the Illinois Family Institute (IFI) website at https://illinoisfamily.org/ and at the Americans for Truth About Homosexuality (AFAH) website at http://americansfortruth.com/ (SEE: http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2017/08/family-institute-smeared-as-one-of-32-illinois-hate-groups-along-with-neo-nazis-and-skinheads.html Constructively, while I served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes treated TAPROOT as being a hate group because I invited IFI and AFTAH leaders to speak at TAPROOT events.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170831/lester-gurnee-says-no-evidence-of-reported-klan-activity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Southern Poverty Law Center’s report, released earlier this month, identified 917 hate groups across the country — 32 in Illinois alone. Smith says Gurnee police contacted the center to find out more about the Klan information and to ask whether Gurnee could be removed from the list, but have heard nothing back yet. In the meantime, he says, police will continue to monitor for Klan activity.)

— A big thanks to the League of Women Voters in Glen Ellyn for having me kick off election season with a discussion Tuesday evening about journalists’ role in keeping government officials accountable. The Blackberry Market event was lovely, with many attendees, wine and appetizers. – Kerry Lester (DIERSEN: Dave Diersen and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails play a big “role in keeping government officials accountable” in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. When activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants who claim to be Republican do thing against the Republican Party platform, against the Illinois Republican Party platform, and/or against the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling, Dave Diersen and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails draws attention to that.)

— Media and the Politics of Misdirection – Jack Hellner
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/08/media_and_the_politics_of_misdirection.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On a side note: As an Illinois resident, I am so proud to have a pretend-Republican governor who believes being a sanctuary state is the way to go. As Illinois chases away taxpayers and businesses with higher taxes, he welcomes in more illegal immigrants. That will obviously help Illinois. Our politicians are so brilliant in Illinois that we have a 16% maximum estate tax while many states have zero. It seems to be above the comprehension of Madigan and others to understand why the wealthy move away or won’t come to spend and invest their money here. It is such a tough concept to understand. Does Rauner think Madigan, Emanuel, other Democrats and reporters will now be more receptive to Rauner and will support him in the next election, because he welcomes people willing to break our immigration laws?)

If I had been a veteran, GAO, IRS, and the Post Office would have offered me jobs sooner than they did. If I had been a veteran, my Democrat GAO superiors would NOT have forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, would NOT have always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, would have promoted me beyond GS-13, would NOT have kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and would NOT have forced me to take an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. If I had been a veteran, my Democrat IRS superiors would have promoted me beyond GS-12, they would NOT have disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and they would NOT have disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. If I had been a veteran, my Democrat Post Office superiors would NOT have forced me resign in 1969 and they would NOT have disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
