Thank you, again, for providing clarifying details. The content of his rant, however, was not about the specifics of the bill before him. His anger and fury concerned the abandonment of the Constitution, and the complacency of the electorate in allowing policies to be dictated by crony-politics.

His rant had nothing to do with the Constitution...his rant is that he is pissed that he is a republican in Illinois that is overwhelmingly controlled by Democrats.

So he is going to cry and say it's not fair that he doesn't get what he wants.

Two questions.

1) Does anyone care that the title of this thread is wrong? This happened in the Illinois House of Representatives, not the US House.

2) Does anyone know the background of what this guy is ranting over...or do people just like to see others yell and scream and that makes them "right'???
edit on 30-5-2012 by OutKast Searcher because: (no reason given)

OS,

1) I could give a swat less about the title error.

2) I don't think many people care anymore what this issues are, and this man's outburst is a reflection of the way most intelligent/aware US citizens are feeling, hence the meltdown.

Maybe there are actually representatives that are representing the way the general public is feeling.

Warmest regards,

RT

Since when did you start caring about our constitutional rule of law?

Because the "issues" are manufactured, that's why they are telling you to wake up.

You must be under the impression the world is a happy go lucky place where nobody cares about their own personal gain and everything is peachy clean.

I expect you to follow this up with, "I am the only one who knows and understands things! I am the only one who is immune from propaganda efforts!" A bit egocentric, don't you think?

The irony is whatever issues being presented by our reps are only in the interests of the lobbyists, large corporations, and the corrupt politicians that are bought, hence it really doesn't seem to matter what they say, do, write, or legislate, because 99% is all slanted in their self-interests anyhow.

That is why this man is freaking out and upset, he seems to have a consciousnesses.

So as long as someone is angry...you support them.

If that is being "awake"...I'll pass.

Have fun being manipulated and lying to yourself by saying you are "awake"

Too Late! Everyone was picked long ago they just don't realize it yet.

Dictators are already in, under the auspice of a Republic.

Most of you have no idea who this dude is, where this is taking place, or what he is even yelling about. And you don't even care. You just think it's great that he is yelling.

You're all ready to take up arms and follow this guy right off a cliff!

I don't care if he is trying to bring back H.R Pufinstuff - he is as angry as us and that is what matters because it proves that not all politicians are sheep. So it's not us that are sheep buddy, it's them.

If following him over a cliff would be for the greater good...you'd probably be at home watching tv.

This guy has gonads, He will probably pay for that outburst, but he is representing his people in a way that no others have done, in my observation. Perhaps he is just the first in a series.....If he was my representative, I would join his campaign.

I never said I was "awake", lol. You're just making up stuff now.

Also what is the reasoning behind me supporting someone "just because their angry". You just can't explain it huh?

You're making up propaganda and people won't be stupid enough to believe it forever.

are you from Illinois???

Let me tell you something..I am from southern Illinois and we get the shaft 90 percent of them time. Southern Illinois is suffering because of the big wigs in the upper part of the state. They don't like to share when it's their turn..yet we have to foot the bill for them on demand.

I wish they would just split this stinking state from Mt. Vernon IL64 down..that would solve many problems and let the upper half of the state rot in their corruption.

So, you have proven my point. Congratulations!

You'll blindly follow somebody if they seem passionate enough. It doesn't even matter what the message is, it just matters how loudly it is said. Brilliant!

YO! i don't care WHAT party he is from! he's got my vote!

that is exactly what i was thinking. I've never seen a politician give such a # in america. this is a man i would want to vote for because i think he actually cares about the job he is doing.

why can't all of the men/women in washington give a crap about the PEOPLE like this man does.
