The Illinois Senate on Friday approved a new state budget that Republicans said would set the stage for a post-election vote to make the temporary income tax hike permanent.

Legislature approves ‘incomplete’ 2015 budget - News - The State Journal-Register - Springfield, IL

Kicking the can down the road, avoiding the inevitable, unpopular, politically painful decisions necessary to run our State effectively should be a criminal offense.

All participants involved in this disgusting display should be thrown in the hoosegow...
 
The US Senate and dictator in the white house have done that for almost 4 years now since the Republican's took the house. In fact I keep hearing the loser human in the white house say he won't even negotiate with them to get the job done at the federal level so they just toss the can down the road until the next election all of the time - why should IL be any different?

They should all be given the chop, and I don't mean their foreskin...

There is no dicatator in the White House.
There is the usual hyperbole in your posting.

There is no "loser human" in the White House.
Your rage at Obama gets the best of you.
For that, I feel sorry for you .

Include your Republicans friends in Springfield also.
You would be wise to stop threatening the lives of public officials in Illinois .

As usual, your OP is incomplete and only allows Republicans to blame Democrats.
Try providing a link to today's Chicago Tribune's article on the budget, a Republican newspaper that doesn't play politics like the Springfield paper.
Then explain why this "complete" budget by Cullerton and Madigan clipped Quinn's wings, since the Daley machine has always hated Quinn.
You could also explain why REPUBLICANS are against the doomsday budget you are calling for.

Not to mention that REPUBLICANS were against fixing the pension crisis because Rauner told them to vote no, after they helped negotiate it.
That smooth move keeps Illinois borrowing rates at record highs and costs the state extra millions a day

So you only prefer left wing spin, no bias there. But Ok googled the trib article on the subject and guess what they say the same darn thing.:shock::2wave::lamo

New Illinois budget doesn't help next governor - chicagotribune.com

Illinois lawmakers did neither candidate for governor any favors with the kick-the-can-down-the-road budget they passed before wrapping up Saturday.

Whether it's Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn or Republican challenger Bruce Rauner who comes out on top this fall, Illinois' next governor now faces the prospect of figuring out how to deal with a projected budget hole of $4.8 billion and a pile of unpaid, overdue bills that could be even larger than that.


substitute "budget hole" with "incomplete budget" and TADA you have the same sentence.


Curses foiled again.

I do know one thing for sure, Il has been democratic for far to long unpaid overdue bills. Maybe they need to start a welfare system for the states.

I can label him a "loser human" or a "dictator" all that I want; this is a free nation where I can post that and display it as my opinion. You can believe he is your chosen messiah all you want and you are free to do so; but you don't get to say there is none. That is a matter of opinion and you don't rule in the realm of opinions. For your inability to accept others opinions that disagree with you - I feel sorry for you.

Tell me where I have called Obama my chosen messiah or stop lying calgun.
You are not granted the priviledge of libel on this debate board.
but you don't get to say there is none.
I get to say there is none just like you say you get to say there is.
That is a matter of opinion and you don't rule in the realm of opinions.
and neither do you--all you have is insults on Obama without opinions on the current OP
For your inability to accept others opinions that disagree with you - I feel sorry for you.
You did not express an opinion on the OP--you did your insult thing on Obama .

Illinois had Republican governors from 1977--2003, with the last one going to jail.
This 26-year stretch ingrained forever our pension mess, detailed by the chicago tribune.
Another poor attempt at blaming DEMs while saying you're about being against both parties .

No we have a dictator.
Dictators are in Syria and Russia right now--the ones the GOP has been supporting and admiring.
Accusing Obama of being a dictator after what we saw last century shows just how even-handed you are.

Hey, linc.
Tried to PM you and couldn't.
Maybe you should take the wife for a walk.
Kinda hot on this forum, don't you think?
Lot's of bait floating around...don't get hooked.

My quote was "you can believe" he is your chosen messiah. I never claimed you wrote as much. I have claimed you emphatically misrepresent your leaning as moderate when in fact you do nothing but defend the regime, messiah / dictator and favor all things DNC. On occasion you pretend to take issue with them but it's rare and half hearted. You are likely one of those so dependent, entitled or just in love with all things govt it's hard to take you serious.

And by the way pointing out our dictators inadequacy, incompetence and failure isn't an insult. If you take it as one you've illustrated my point above.

Since 1983 with the exception of 1995-96 Mikey "My Money" Madigan has been Speaker of the House for the IL General Assembly

This means that since AT LEAST 1983 Democrats have controlled the IL State Assembly (minus 2 years) THAT'S 30 years that the People of IL have been held hostage by the Democrat Machine. 13 out of the last 22 years the Dems have also held the IL State Senate hostage.

SECTION 8. PASSAGE OF BILLS
(a) The enacting clause of the laws of this State shall
be: "Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly."
(b) The General Assembly shall enact laws only by bill.
Bills may originate in either house, but may be amended or
rejected by the other.
(c) No bill shall become a law without the concurrence
of a majority of the members elected to each house. Final
passage of a bill shall be by record vote. In the Senate at
the request of two members, and in the House at the request
of five members, a record vote may be taken on any other
occasion. A record vote is a vote by yeas and nays entered on
the journal.
(d) A bill shall be read by title on three different
days in each house. A bill and each amendment thereto shall
be reproduced and placed on the desk of each member before
final passage.
Bills, except bills for appropriations and for the
codification, revision or rearrangement of laws, shall be
confined to one subject. Appropriation bills shall be limited
to the subject of appropriations.
A bill expressly amending a law shall set forth
completely the sections amended.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives and the
President of the Senate shall sign each bill that passes both
houses to certify that the procedural requirements for
passage have been met.

What this shows is that for the last 30 years Democrats in the IL Legislature have failed the people of IL.

They have failed the people of IL because they themselves, their policies, ideas, and ideology is a FAILURE.

Further, not to exclude the culpability of the electorate, those who have voted for the Democrats of IL have also failed their State, their fellow citizens, and themselves.


IL woes can only be laid at the feet of Democrats, and the Democratic Party.

They should be outlawed, deemed domestic terrorists, and sent to Gitmo...

They're more destructive than termites, them critters are...
