...and that's why, son, if the election were held today, Obama would be re-elected despite the worst managed economic "recovery" in our history, supporting the takeover of previously American-Friendly, or at least neutral, Middle Eastern Nations by the American hating Islamic Brotherhood, and DOJ stonewalling investigations into why the US government armed Mexican drug cartels in "Fast and Furious".....

That would the "alcohol reeking, tattooed men wearing wife beaters" who spent the afternoon at Wrigley Field watching his beloved Cubs lose, then wen to Sox Park to act really stupid.
Believe it or not, it is true.

Alligators have strong tails, Simon and Simon were not really brothers in real life and Cock Bobster wants to turn our country over to a master job outsourcer/tax evader! Believe it or not, it is true!

...and then the Big Bad Wolf said, if you keep borrowing your kids will owe me $16 trillion dollars.
...and the Little Pigs said, "OK!" and drove right off the fiscal cliff...

from coworker Bill Chandler..."and 2008 to 2012 are commonly referred to as the dark years of America."
James Traut September 14, 2012 at 12:10 pm
from coworker Mike Hamann...and then Little Red Riding Hood said "Bill Clinton's been sleeping in my bed."
James Traut September 14, 2012 at 03:11 pm
And if a democrat overshadows a republican it means 4 more years of winter.
James Traut September 14, 2012 at 03:11 pm

eric nelson September 14, 2012 at 03:35 pm

Billable Hours September 14, 2012 at 04:12 pm

James Traut September 14, 2012 at 05:54 pm

James Traut September 14, 2012 at 05:55 pm
and at Chronicles your comments are never funny either. most of the time they are rude and written in poor taste.
Billable Hours September 14, 2012 at 06:28 pm
Much better James Traut's coworker Mike Hamann! Your neighborhood nursery rhyme integrity watchdog.....Billable Hours.
P.S. Jim stop hogging all the work computers and let these people at the sweat shop get their own Patch account!
Chronicles of Bob September 14, 2012 at 06:38 pm
Well me, myself and I would highly disagree with you... That's 3 people James... You have your slew of co-workers of course, that I would imagine will get your back, but i'm not sure that they are real. Otherwise, there are alot of UNfunny people on the patch...
Chronicles of Bob September 14, 2012 at 06:42 pm
Oh "child labor patch" snap!

Be nice to Lauren or she will sick her dog on you, who will steal your spot in the bed
Chronicles of Bob September 15, 2012 at 01:22 am
Dean,
if i had a spot in Lauren's bed.... then in the words of Ice Cube, "today was a good day."
Tom September 17, 2012 at 02:49 pm
I told you: Clean your room, or else.
Nancy September 22, 2012 at 11:48 pm
Since when have these caption contests become just a way to insult people. Come on, let's just have some fun.

Bella Cain was a nice surprise last year for a first-time band last year. Nice to see them backRead More this year.
Colleen McAbee June 18, 2013 at 08:28 am
Disappointed once again to not see 7th heaven on the roster. They have the best vocals out there,Read More even without their lead singer Keith Semple who defected to start a solo act. This band actually gets radio air play. Haven't heard any of the others at Oakfest on the radio.
Dutch Oven Chef June 19, 2013 at 09:38 am
Have any of you whiners ever seen the crowd at OakFest when Infinity is playing?? There are wallRead More to wall people in the tent and out into the grass around the tent! I agree that 7th Heaven was very good as well but maybe their price tag got too high for a neighborhood fest....
Robert Quilico June 11, 2013 at 07:31 am
Stephanie, not sure how to do so. Joe, thanks for your concern. We are still hoping to find someoneRead More here that may know of the dog. We are not looking to cause it any harm, just looking for information.

I hope that you find the owners of that pet! I bring my black Shepherd up there when we go...oneRead More reason I don't let my dog go with neighbors is because neighbors can't control him like we do. The owners should have been more responsible. I'm glad that your daughter is alright and I hope that you find the owners of this dog!

I dare anyone to name a more dangerous intersection then that. The turn from 147th st west bound toRead More southbound Oak Park is the worst I've seen. One slip and your car goes down a ravine 20 feet. The civil engineer and county people who approved that design should be called out. We NEED HELP!
