Dear Gov. Quinn (said with tongue firmly in cheek; I’m sure that by now, you are “dear” to no one)
You are an arrogant ass.
I opined in a Facebook post a couple of days ago about whether or not you’d “sign” off on the new gun bill that is being forced down your restricted liberal air passages by a court bigger than your Empire of Illinois.
I was taken to task because I neglected to note that this was a veto-proof law, having collected a super-majority of legislative votes to pass before the deadline of this Sunday, otherwise our state gets Constitutional (open, loaded and everywhere) Carry. I mean, I know, you couldn’t have that, could you. NO.
However, now I see your pathetic attempts at manipulating news media into manipulating the reading and listening public into believing that you “not signing the bill” is going to make a rat’s ass bit of difference.
It’s not going to make a bit of difference if you’re “still reviewing the bill.”
It’s not going to make a bit of difference if you “don’t agree with parts of the bill.”
It’s not going to make a bit of difference if you “don’t sign the bill,” by this Sunday, or ever.
As a matter of fact, here’s my suggestion as to what you can do with the bill that’s “sitting on your desk” right now.
Take each page, and wad them up, very, very tightly.
Unfold, turn it over on its other side, and wad again.
Repeat wadding about 10 times per page, rolling around the wad in your hand until it’s almost moist from your greasy palms.
Take the wads into your favorite gubernatorial bathroom, and stash them under the sink.
That way, during one of those inconvenient times when your overpaid janitorial staff (probably comprised of illegals) neglects to stock your gubernatorial restroom with toilet paper and you run out at an inconvenient time, you can pull out the wads and use them like you have been using us, the people of Illinois and our rights, for the past 4 or so years.
And when you so poetically wipe your ass with something that should never have had to become a “law” at all—because the RIGHT to bear arms is a RIGHT, not a privilege—maybe you’ll find it so fitting that you’ll think of all the rest of us who wouldn’t have voted you in as dogcatcher.
And maybe you’ll think twice about running this next time around, because that thing you’ll be doing with the gun bill?
That’s what we’re all going to be doing to your gubernatorial prospects this next (2014) election season.
Armed, of course….and carrying, concealed. An armed society is a polite society, after all.
Love,
Jack
