stuff to think about

First of all, Chicago has been blessed with a lot of rain this month and no 100 degree days, unlike other parts of the country. Also, thank G-d, we're nowhere near Hurricane Dolly.

Secondly, the citizens of Cook County HAVE GOT TO THROW OUT STROGER and repeal the sales tax hike. No middle class person can afford to have his or her taxes raised.

For all of the progressives and liberals in Rogers Park and other parts of Chicago, explain to me why tax hikes are good.
