  • Bruno is still in the mix but what does he have in common with Kim Lightford?

    Bruno is all over Bellwood government. He is in every meeting (board) and anything with development, he's there. When he smells money, he sniffs right out.
    It's almost like he is an appendage to Frank Pasquale- he's the tail! But wagging the dog.

    Poor Frank-he's either being led around by Roy McCampbell or Bruno.

    Did Frank win the case against Ireland? I heard he did, then I heard he didn't? Anyone know?

  • Is it true that Serpico,Moore,Calderone and Welch are hosting a fundraiser for Toddler?
    Is it true that toddler has promised these men,if elected,whatever support they'll need in the future to overthrow Yarbrough and her radical facation of Latino and Black progressives?

  • Why did Meeks give Lightford $10,000 and Emile Jones give her $5,000 for her campaign?
    Hmmmmmmmmmmmm........mmm
    Makes a guy wonder what a gal's gotta do to make that kind of scratch!!!
    Maybe Moore and Welch were right after all?

  • An "Anonymous" poster wrote the following. If you want to refer to the post use the title "Thinks Rock is an Icon".

    Oak Park political icon (and former President of the Illinois Senate) Phil Rock, through his law firm, Rock Fusco, gave Chris Welch $500 in his race against Karen Yarbrough right before the primary (3/22/06). Also, Austin-based Cook County Commissioner Earlean Collins gave Welch money while ignoring Yarbrough. I would expect this kind of partisan support from Collins but not from Rock. I am deeply surprised (and a little disappointed)by Rock's law firm's donation to Welch.

    Please do not post as "anonymous". Use a pseudonym. The discussion is much easier to follow if each post is associated with a unique name.
