After eight years of reckless fiscal destruction, Illinois Democrats are desperate for money to pay for their smashed BMWs, the trashed hotel rooms and their STD medication.
Local Democrat 72nd District Representative Pat Verschoore is working to grab more $$$$ from our wallets to pay for his recklessness with his bill HB1166 which brands anyone who owns more than 6 individuals of any common species [guppies, dogs, cats, parakeets, hamsters, etc.] kept for personal enjoyment or companionship as a “hoarder” requiring special permission, licensing and fees.
And you know “permission, licensing and fees” ain’t gonna be cheap in the State O’ Illinois.
The penalty for non-compliance is 1-3 years in prison and a $25,000 fine for EACH DAY in violation.
The sad part of all this is that true “hoarding” isn’t a criminal offense, it is a mental illness that Illinois Democrats now believe should be punished with taxes and fines.
Sad—and pathetic.
As of this moment, the Examiner household is in violation of this idiotic bill. Maybe 6 “of any common species kept for personal enjoyment or companionship” isn’t a big deal in urban areas, but out here in the boonies, it is just country living.
Think about it; you have a couple of dogs, a few cats, some parakeets, your kids have some hamsters and rabbits—-pretty soon, Pat Verschoore says you’re a HOARDER!
Liberal Democrats always say they don’t want to regulate abortion because it is a “private family matter”—-but everything else is fair game.

WOW … these guys are insane. What if I raise my pets for food instead of companionship? 🙂
But the text has four conditions, joined by “AND”, which I read as all four would have to be met before they lock you up for life and take all your money.
One of the four is “keeps the companion animals in a severely overcrowded environment”
Still, maybe these geniuses should be required to simplify or remove a law for every law they add. It seems our government wants to be able to arrest us for at least twenty-five obscure laws at any given time, while they excuse themselves for all kinds of villainy.
Like a cockroach scurrying back under the fridge when the light is turned on, Pat Verschoore has announced he does not intend to call the bill. He didn’t realize the unintended negative consequences.
Sheesh! That’s the brilliant politburo selected Verschoore for ya. He was clueless about the “negative consequences” until animal lovers/owners/breeders pitched a collective fit.
Our state selected/elected hacks and dullards have no idea what they are doing when they make a grab for more of our $$$$—it’s up to us to school them—good and hard.
You people in the 72nd actually had a CHOICE last year for a change, yet you chose the clueless incumbent tax and spend nanny-stater—enjoy!
Sheesh!
Gee bill, you EAT your pets?
Eeeewwwwww! 🙂
Mark Lioen was the better choice. Unfortunately, nobody knew that because they fell asleep six seconds into any conversation with him.
Clearly the only answer we have is Harrison Wallace. He will fix the problems Illinois is facing with his boyish good looks and financial wizardry.
Then, I will hatch part two of my plan when I run against Harrison in 2014! Nobody gives a crap about the Constitution in state politics!
Checkmate.
Phil Hare will crush Schilling in 2012.
I heard Phil is going to drive through all the yards of those Vets that ruined his great image. He will be riding in the red mustang flipping the finger.
Jackpot Brother
“Gee bill, you EAT your pets?”
LOL … no, I just said that was my purpose, since it is only illegal if the purpose is companionship. So I could argue the purpose was food, even if I never actually devour Fluffy or Rover. Then I’m allowed to keep 25 dogs in the living room.
But I guess eating them could be construed as “enjoying them”, so I’d raise them for someone else to eat, since I couldn’t legally enjoy them.
But Pat put the pet bill back off the table, and we can keep our pets out of the pit and out of the pot. … thank goodness. But whatta putz 🙂
I’m so tired of seeing Schilling on TV. Especially with his $1,000,000 Lasix procedure.
I just got home from the RI Fitness Center. I’ve been eliptical-ing so much. I’m losing weight so fast, I’m starting to look like Rich Morthland.
Just wait till you guys see me…you will crap a brick
Oh please Phil! My cousin Mike will beat you down if you even try to get into this race. How absurd. You lost by 20,000 votes and more than 10 pts. You’re known to the American public as the congressman who doesn’t worry about the Constitution and who doesn’t know the difference between it and the Declaration of Independence.
If the next primary for IL-17 was a bar back home, Mikey would kick your rear end!
Hey PhilHareFag! If you are really going to win against Mike jacobs, then how come Mike says he can beat you? Check mate.
I stopped smoking after 30 years, you guys keep talking about fags, my cravings are coming back… stop it.
Dave has it right. Jacobs will beat Rep Schock in a heavily gerrymandered Democratic District. Schilling knows he can not compete with the pink belted Kid Arron Schock. Schock will beat Schilling easily.
I agree. The use of the word “fag” is highly offensive and should not be used in civil discourse.
DAve– I’m sure that your cousin would not approve.
I’m in Phil Hare’s corner for a primary.
Phil doesn’t need anybody in his corner. He has been losing so much weight he could box 15 rounds all by himself.
Phil will crush Jacobs and Schweibert in a primary. Phil doesn’t “worry” about those two to be honest.
Phil has also been training to take down those silly Vets4Constitution guys. Phil saves his rubber stamp, so he doesn’t need one for the 113th Congress.
Phil Hare in a landslide and there will be CONSEQUENCES
Hey civil discoursefags!
If discourse is so civil, then why you say fag?
Checkmate.
Oh please Pat! Your boss still has moobs!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey PhilHarefags! If phil is losing weight, then how come he still eats food then? Check mate.
Mike Jacobs wouldn’t get 10% in a primary against Phil Hare.
I can’t wait till Phil wins again and he can pay me 80K a year. I miss my government job and taxpayer funded healthcare.
Schilling is now just another politician collecting checks that Phil deserves.
Mike Jacobs couldn’t even beat Rich Morthland.
Morthland for State Senate in 2012 and Harrison Wallace for State Rep in 2012.
Phil Hare in a landslide
Harrison Wallace couldn’t even beat the chick from poltergesit! “Kelly! Don’t go into the light!!!!!!!!!!”
My cousin will win in a landslide with his rugged good looks, charming personality and deep sense of humor.
Mike doesn’t have to get lasik because he is already 1 million times hotter than Bobby Schilling.
Pat you are fat and an idiot!
Dave..it is still Phil’s turn. Mike Jacobs must wait his turn.
Nobody has labor in their pocket like Phil Hare. Nobody can get their family government jobs like Phil Hare. Phil is Lane’s chosen one.
He was taken out of context for one minute and lost in a fluke. Phil is losing weight and will come back thinner than ever.
He promised Roger Davis a job so he won’t steal his votes again.
Phil will be back along with my 80K per year salary and government pension.
Phil Hare in a landslide. Check-mutha-fin-mate.
If there is money in the United States, there is an economy.
There is money in the United States. Therefore, there is an economy.
If Phil Hare will run for Congress again, Phil Hare will have lost 50 pounds.
Phil Hare will not run for Congress again. Therefore, Phil Hare will not lose 50 pounds.
If Mike Jacobs seeks the 17th Congressional Seat, then the 17th Congressional District will still exist.
The 17th Congressional District will no longer exist. Therefore, Mike Jacobs will not seek the 17th Congressional Seat.
If these jokes never get stale, we will always enjoy the comment section on QCExaminer.
These jokes will never get stale. Therefore, we will always enjoy the comment section on QCExaminer!
Check. Mate.
I agree with this. Dave and his gang are right on time. Jacobs has taken control.
Great moments are born from great opportunity. That’s what Mike Jacobs has here tonight boys. That’s what he’s earned here tonight.
1 election. If he ran against Bobby in the current 17th district he might lose 9 times. But, not this new democrat district, not this election.
This election, Mike skates with ’em. This election Mike stays with them and he shuts Bobby down, because he can!
You were born to be President, Mike. Every one of your brothers and sisters.
This is YOUR time. Bobby’s time is done! It’s over! I’m sick and tired of hearing about what a great campaign the Schillings have.
This is your time Mike. Now go out there and gerrymander and TAKE it!
-Coach Herb Brooks, Miracle in the 17th District, to be released 1/20/2013
OH MY GOD! He’s talking about this speech….
Dave even if it were the current 17th Your Cousin would win every time. The fact is that the state is losing a district so Jacobs will run against Schock. Schilling will run against Schock because he has become accustomed to the power. Schilling will get killed by Schock and Jacobs will win easily in Jacobs heavily gerrymandered Democratic district.
Big Mike Jacobs don’t need no stinkin’ gerrymandering—his daddy’s gonna call in all his lobbying chips and BUY his son a congressional seat. 🙂
Rusty,
I fully agree! You brought up good points that neither myself nor my cousin have thought of.
Rusty you and I were born to be political commentators! We know everything about politics! Well except when we both were saying that Phil Hare would win in a landslide.
I am glad that my cousin agreed to hire on bobby’s oldest son. I wasn’t at first, but I think he will get along great with mikey. Us three with be BFFs forever!!!!!
No way! Terry Schilling’s working for Marvelous Mike?!!!1111!!!
Surely you jest.
Hey QCEfag! If Terry isn’t going to work for Mikey then how come he is our BFF? Checkmate
Hey doubterfags! If Terry isn’t going to DC with Mikey when he crushes Schock then how come bobby already worked a deal? Checkmate.
Oh yeah, I guess you’re right. 🙂
Thanks Dave for clearing everything up.
Everybody Stop. Now more using “FA*”
I am above this. I am Phil Hare.
I will come back and crush Schilling or Schock.
I have labor in my back pocket and with Obama on the ticket I CANNOT lose.
Mike Jacob’s who?? Exactly..
The voters will be chanting “Phil…Phil…Phil” just like
Grow up Phil! And no, I don’t mean gain more weight!
No one chanted Phil. They chanted Thrill! For Mike Jacobs will lead us to greener pastures. Mike leads me beside still waturs and he guides me.
Mike will crush Schwiebert and Phil. Phil can’t even pee standing up. He has to sit down on the toilet and pee. Who wants a congressman who has to pee sitting down like a woman? I thought so. Check mate.
Dave,
I can so pee standing up. I use the little boy urinals that hang lower than the others.
In your face Dave.
“Son, I am disappoint” — Checkmate
If you can pee standing up then how come your gut hangs over your private part? Checkmate.
Boys! Boys! Boys!
Enough, already.
One of the least interesting subjects on the planet is whether Phil Hare pees standing or sitting.
Give it a rest.
Examiner,
Stop trolling on this great debate.
What do talk about instead? If Roger Davis has a job yet?
I’d crap a brick if he did!!
Phil Hare in a landslide!!!!
🙂
I love QCE! I always get the lulz here
Again Dave is right on track. The only question is if the power has gotten to Rep Schilling. Does he really think he can beat Rep Schock who has more campaign cash than Rep Schilling could ever secure. Rep Schilling after his TV show is walking around with his chest all puffed out and thinking that he is a supermodel on the catwalk. Rep Schilling has let the bright lights go to his head. I don’t even know who he is anymore with that mob suit on.
Rep Schilling has some sole searching to do.
Rusty is right on again. Rep Schillingfag, if you are one of us, then how come you go on tv? Check mate.
Rep. Schillingfag, if you are a good man, then how come you dress like pimp? Check mate.
Rep. Schillingfag, if you aren’t corrupt then how come your family makes money? Check mate.
Rep. Schillingfag, if your chest isn’t all puffed out, then how come you wear a size large tshirt? Check mate.
Rep. Schillingfag, if you are not a supermodel on the catwalk, then how come you wear stylish glasses? Check mate.
I caught your congressional critter on tv and all I can say is BORING. The guy looked like a deer caught headlights. When the reporter asked him a direct question Schilling made some “wise crack” about Democrats that went over like a lead ballon. If this guy has any chance to beat a true leaders like Congressman Aaron Schock he better improve in a hurry. Maybe Schock would give Schilling’s kid a job answering phones in his politicial office?
Puffying your chest out and wearing mafia suits may work in Rock Island, but it didin’t play very well on National tv. Schilling should get some media coaching!
Here’s Johnnnny!
Or is it Mikey/Good gal/rusty?
Jeez. Put it to bed.
And Schilling doesn’t pull cheap shot jokes about the dimmercrats. He leaves that to Phil Hare.
I don’t worry about the Constitution. We can spend. I read the bill 3x!!!111!!! I’m the dreamer! The Constitution gives us the right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Mary, Phil Hare is dead and gone. Why do you insist on beating a dead horse. Your anger and negativity to Rep Hare is very concerning. Either you have a crush on Rep Hare or you have real anger issues.
Mary let’s move on to the issue at hand. Young Aaron Schock or Rep Schilling in 12.
Sorry Rusty, but Hare is NOT dead.
He has not taken himself out of the race and both he and other Politburo poobahs have announced they will NOT hold a primary, but the nominee will be decided in yet another dirty backroom deal.
This gives Hare an opening—with his thuggish tactics and threats of kneecappings he could turn the tide in his favor even though he LOST IN A LANDSLIDE!!11111!!!
Democrats are well-known for their delusions—Obama, Hare and other Dems said once we found out what was in obamacare, we’d just loooooove it.
Now with his silly budget, Obama seems to think that the last election was meaningless and what we really want is more reckless spending like the Illinois Democrats have been doing for the last 8 years.
You don’t have to be detached from reality to be a Democrat—but it helps!
This Verschoore is the guy who voted to repeal the death penalty by changing his vote when a democrat from Maywood,IL(karen Yarborough) asked him to. He explained she ahd helped him on a bill and”that’s the way things are done here” He went on to explain his wife influence his decision. Did we vote for her? He couldn’t find a predator in his breakfast cereal. He stupid, dumb, nuts, crazy. You get it?
