I so want this embarrassment to humanity gone

“So at the Democratic Convention Wednesday night their first prime time speaker was Sandra Fluke, whatever her name is,” Walsh said. “Think about this, a 31-32 year old law student who has been a student for life, who gets up there in front of a national audience and tells the American people, ‘I want America to pay for my contraceptives.’ You’re kidding me. Go get a job. Go get a job Sandra Fluke.”

Outnumbered Tammy 10 to 1. Wish I knew where to get Democratic yard signs. I have no idea where Dem HQ is for us after the redistricting, though it looks like Duckworth's campaign office is in Rolling Meadows. I used to go to the office on North Ave near 53 but I doubt they cover us anymore.
