State senators must fear being recalled

Wednesday May 7, 2008
 

It is too bad the obstructionists in the Illinois Senate are unwilling to pass the recall amendment to allow the people to vote on it. They must be afraid of being recalled themselves. If they were doing their job, helping and working for the people instead of themselves, they would not have to worry about it. Also, it is almost obscene that many of those same obstructionists think that they need a $7,000 to $10,000 raise to help them get nothing done again this year, when there are thousands of hard-working people losing their jobs.
