Don't like to thread jump, but I have too on this one (sorry Hank).......

So what's your solution to fossil fuels? Specifically, what is your replacement for gasoline and diesel fuels?

News flash for you. The internal combustion engine is and will be the dominate mode of propulsion (meaning market share over 50%) for at least 50 or 60 more years and will not be completely replaced or replaceable in ours or our children's lifetime.........

Give me your real world solutions...........and not ones filled with Obama "Hope and Change" pixie dust and unicorn fantasies.........

It's a delightful city isn't it......Rest assured though, "The Machine" that runs the city has it all under control........There gonna fix that pesky little gang problem with new "red light camera's" and the drug problem is a good as gone with the new "parking tax".....If my "Blackhawks" were not in the city, I could safely say that I would never set foot in that city again..

"and who said gangs were not capitalists at heart?"........Ha! No Kidding. There the only organization in the city that actually uses "black ink" on there financial records........

Precisely.............a local gas station was "hit" a couple of weeks ago.

They took the cash of course..........and about a half dozen shipping crates of cigarettes...

Cigarettes are like "Gold" in Chicago, so the crooks head out to the burbs and rip off the gas stations Then sell them on the streets of Liberal Utopia Chicago for half the price and make a ton of cash.....

Yep, that'll work......

...........I'll take "How to create a booming black market in cigarettes" for a $1000 Alex......

How special..................The "illegal" smoking product will be cheaper than the "legal" smoking product..........

I've said it before and I'll say it again..........This is what happens when liberal hippies invade the political system........

President Bush, Tsunamis, Earthquakes, Snow Storms, Middle East Revolutions, Global Warming, Republicans, The Tea Party, Americans, Rich People and on and on and on.........

...........Take your pick of the people this idiot and his boss have blamed for there short-comings...

What amazes me is that Barry has not blamed his dog for anything yet. After all, he is the consummate "The Dog Ate My Homework" artist....

Wow! We finally got something right here in the Peoples Republic Of Illinois......

...One right thing in 10 years of Commie rule mind you, but still, it's better than nothing...........

We're shootin' for three in row here. Pat Quinn is next up.....Guiness Book Of World Records here we come!

I'm so proud to be from Illinois.................and yes, that statement would be dripping with sarcasm.............

Yes they did didn't they...............right about the same time her cloths got skimpier!

and...............ironically right about the same time the ratings went thru the roof. Coincidence? i think not........

“art and stories inspired by the protesters,”

So it'll have stories about "crapping" on police cars, rapes, murder, drug use etc........

Sounds like a winner to me! (that would be sarcasm right there!)
