BUMPED UP: Illinois Senate President John Cullerton says he will retire in January

His sudden retirement has nothing to do with nothing, don't you know.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. - Long-time Illinois Senate President John Cullerton announced Thursday he plans to retire.

Cullerton said he plans to leave in January, which is in the middle of his term. A spokesperson told
FOX 32 that Cullerton and his wife have been thinking about this ever since his cousin was indicted last summer, and a few other things happened last month, and then yesterday something else happened. And so goes 28 years in the state senate. He is going to help his wife take care of their grandchildren.

His legacy? A fine example of why we need term limits.

He has done such a good job for Illinois. I sincerely hope he doesn't have any legal problems.

If Illinois had term limits this wouldn't mean a thing.

I'm hoping for a trifecta, Cullerton, Madigan and Ruth Bader Ginsburg all retiring soon.

The Joyces and The Cullertons are fine Irish American families. May they enrich politics forever!

This blog is about

This blog is non-monetized and uses photos and materials from other sources. It is in compliance with Fair Use Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Code. Music, videos and mugshots are for entertainment and disincentive purposes only. Any similarities or resemblances to people or pets, living, dead or imprisoned is just your imagination. Some stories are true, some are fictional while some of the stories are funny.

The theme of this blog has changed. We are now headed into a period of extreme political and economic troubles. We want to increase everyone's awareness and show them how to weather the storm. We are going to begin including articles and videos on prepping (food, water, shelter, medicine, self-defense,) basic economics and general SHTF lifestyle changes.

I am not going to be critical of 19th ward politicians. They tend to do the best job they can with very limited resources, and don't need to be beaten up. In fact, people should be helping them as they are among the last "normal" leaders in Illinois.

I am keeping the 19th Ward Chicago name because of the rich blog history going back to 2010 and because there is a ready-made base of similar-thinking readers. For now on, the 19th Ward of Chicago will be mainly a point of reference, an observation deck if you will. A place where allot of good-natured, normal-thinking people still live and can safely view the dysfunction overtaking America. Write whatever you want about whatever or whomever you want. Just keep it true and not vulgar.

At all times, we am going to comply with Blogspot's community standards. We have seen what happens when there is not such compliance.

We will never publish threats of physical violence or baseless attacks on people or institutions.
