Better get going
Waukegan, you better get going on that casino. Competition is hot on your tail. There’s now gonna be a Hard Rock Casino in Kenosha, Wisconsin, just north of Highway 50 and west of Interstate 94, with the land already purchased. Poor Waukegan. Just when you think you’ve finally got it made, surprise.
Hyperbolic
Republican lawmakers become hyperbolic decrying abortion. It seems they care more about ensuring that children are born rather than providing a community where the children are safe from being murdered in their classrooms, homes, stores, etc.
It was said
After the Constitution was written, one said we should add freedom of speech, it was agreed to and it was amended. Then one said we should have the right to bear arms and another said, what if they use it to kill people, and it was said we are not giving them the right to murder. Another said maybe we should limit it to 15 balls for a pistol, and 10 balls for a musket, the others said no, we will say they have the right to be well-armed because technology will change and so therefore will their needs to be a well-armed militia if needed, and so it was amended.
Lies come out
Check out the facts. The former president had no authority to declassify documents that were found at Mar-a-Lago any more than Vice President Joe Biden had the authority to declassify documents in his possession. Check the facts. Don’t listen to the former president. He makes up his own rules that only apply to him. He opens his mouth and lies come out.
This is wrong
I’m calling in regard to ComEd seeking a rate hike. This is where the electronic vehicle owners, who are part of the reason for this charge can, start paying their fair share. I see that there should be a $10 or $20 a month whatever tax on these vehicles that are causing the average consumer, who doesn’t own one, to pay for them. This is wrong.
