An Associated Press report claiming that the challenge to Illinois House incumbents who voted for marriage redefinition has fizzled is utterly misleading. According to our information, eight of the nine Chicago Democrats challenging Democratic incumbents would have voted no or present on SB 10, the same-sex “marriage” legislation sponsored by homosexual State Representative Greg Harris (D-Chicago).
This is an astounding fact that should not be lost on readers. Not one, not two, not three, but eight pro-marriage Chicago Democrats are challenging Democratic incumbents in the March 18, 2014 primary election.… Continue Reading
From IllinoisReview.com:
Of 20 possible Illinois Senate races next November, challengers for only a few filed for General Election ballot placement. Local parties have the option of appointing candidates, but unless that happens, the 2015 Illinois State Senate is likely to have a very similar appearance with 40 Democrats and 19 Republicans. Thus far, challengers in only five Legislative districts have filed:
- Republican Stefanie Linares is challenging Senate President John Cullerton (D-06)
- The winner of the 24th Senate District’s GOP primary will face Democrat Susan Glowiak
- Republican Don Wilson is challenging Democrat incumbent State Senator Terry Link (D-30)
- Republican Neil Anderson is challenging Democrat incumbent State Senator Mike Jacobs (D-36)
- Republican Linda Little is challenging Democrat incumbent State Senator Andy Mahar (D-48)
Before the November General, four districts show March intra-party primary races – three Democratic and one Republican:

We don’t mean to brag, but a financial analysis done by the group 24/7 Wall Street finds that Illinois is NOT the worst run state in the nation. It found we’re the 3rd worst — and interestingly enough, the analysis also found we border the 3rd best run state in the nation.
Of course, ranking 48th out of 50 is nothing to brag about. State Rep. Bill Mitchell, a Republican from Forsythe, repeats many of the obvious problems the state faces.… Continue Reading

On Wednesday, November 20, 2013, the professed Catholic governor of Illinois, Pat Quinn, signed a bill making same-sex marriage, or marriage between “two persons,” possible in the state.
Prior to Quinn’s signing the same-sex marriage bill, Francis Cardinal George condemned same-sex marriage in Illinois. The Cardinal said, “There will be consequences for the Church and society that will become clearer as the law is used to sue for discrimination.” He added that the new law is “bad law because it will contribute over the long run to the further dissolution of marriage and family life…”
Others have spoken out about the threat to society represented by same-sex marriage — some gay men among them. … Continue Reading

Last week, the Family Research Council (FRC) asked Illinois’s U.S. Senator Mark Kirk to apologize for his bigoted decision to cancel a Senate office building room reservation for the Rockford-based Howard Center for Family, Religion & Society after radical homosexual activists protested the event.
According to Sen. Kirk’s press secretary, Kirk cancelled the meeting because he “will not host groups that advance a hateful agenda.” And what is the “hateful agenda”? … Continue Reading

This is ridiculous! Aren’t we tired of liberal cheer-leader Judy Barr Topinka? I don’t know about you, but I’d rather have an honest liberal with a D after her name as Comptroller than radical liberal Republican [liar] like the one we have now. At least it will be truth in advertising!
I say we retire Topinka in November 2014 so she can get all the flowering experience she can for LGBTQ “weddings” in the years to come. … Continue Reading
