For the record, I disagree that an American political party, no less the Republican Party, will hold off the social rot in the U.S. I find the contrast in these two states interesting for more evil reasons one might guess.
Illinois & Oklahoma:
I thought these two states made for an interesting contrast.
The first part is about Illinois and the second part is about Oklahoma!
PART 1 - Illinois
"A State with No Republicans"
Some interesting data on the 'state' of the State of Illinois ...
There are more people on welfare in Illinois than there are people working.
Chicago pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S.
Their average pay is $110,000/year. Their pensions average 80-90% of their income.
Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what?
Be sure to read to the end. I've never heard it explained better.
Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?
Body count:
In the last six months, 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago.
221 killed in Iraq; AND Chicago has one of the strictest gun
laws in the entire US.
Here's the Chicago chain of command:
President: Barack Hussein Obama
Senator: Dick Durbin
House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr.
Governor: Pat Quinn
House leader: Mike Madigan
Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)
Mayor: Rahm Emanuel
All of the leadership in Illinois - 100% Democrats
Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago.
Of course, they're all blaming each other.
Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
Let us get ALL the facts out while we are at it:
The Chicago school system is rated one of the worst in the country.
Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
The State pension fund is $78 Billion in debt; the worst in the country.
Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
Cook County’s (Chicago ) sales tax is 10.25%—highest in country.
Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois.
And he was going to 'fix' Washington politics for us?
George Ryan is no longer Governor; he is in prison.
He was replaced by Rob Blagojevich who is also in prison.
And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned and he and his wife are both in prison.
The Land of Lincoln, where our Governors and Representatives make our license plates.
As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago, nothing is going to change, except the state will go bankrupt before the country does.
"Anybody who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him better take a closer look at the American Indian."
Don't forget Detroit, another great example of a Democratic empire.
With all the bad news, there may still be hope, so let's go to...
PART 2- Oklahoma
OKLAHOMA - may soon have plenty of new residents!
THIS IS REALLY INTERESTING, AND TRUE... PLEASE READ IT!
Oklahoma is the only state that Obama did not win even one county in the last election...
While everyone is focusing on Arizona's new law, look what Oklahoma has been doing!!!
Oklahoma law passed, 37 to 9, an amendment to place the Ten Commandments
on the front entrance to the state capitol.
The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake.
But hey, this is a conservative state, based on Christian values... HB 1330 so guess what... Oklahoma did it anyway.
Oklahoma
recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants and ship them back to where they came from unless they want to get a green card and become American citizens. They all scattered. HB 1804. This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU—they said it would be a mistake but guess what..
Oklahoma did it anyway.
Recently Oklahoma passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegals to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes. Pelosi said it was unconstitutional - SB 1102. Guess what...
Oklahoma did it anyway.
Recently Oklahoma passed a law, declaring Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives. Joining Texas, Montana, and Utah as the only states to do so.
More states are likely to follow: Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolinas,
Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi and Florida.
Save your confederate money; it appears the South is about to rise up once again.
HJR 1003
The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns.
Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles. I'm sure that was a setback for the criminals. The Liberals didn't like it, but... Guess what... Oklahoma did it anyway.
Just this month, the state has voted and passed a law that ALL drivers' license exams will be printed in English and only English and no other language. They have been called racist for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only. If you want to drive in Oklahoma, you must read and write English. Nothing could be more simple. By the way, the Liberals don't like any of this either. Guess what... who cares!... Oklahoma is doing it anyway.
If you like it, pass it on. If you don't, then delete it...
Thanks!
Guess what: The people I'm sending this to will send it on.
They are the ones who love and believe in freedom.
