It was a very, very good show. I really wish Kathy the best as I think she considered you one of her mentors. Please call Frank Coconate so I can give you a DVD of the show. Tom your wife is a classy lady as is Kathy's mom. Kathy is a real jem to Chicagoland and loudly spoke out againt Mayor Daley's Dope for Corruption.

It is human nature. I am not saying that these politicians aren't helping people... they are just having their cake and eating it too... None the less, I don't favor term limits. If a person wants to run and people want them in office for 3,4,5,6,7,8 terms, good for them and their district. Coming from the Peoria area, I know how much Ray Lahood has done for the district.

Aren't women raising children American citizens? Don't they deserve to be accurately represented in Congress as well as everybody else? It sounds like someone is a little insecure about broadening the role of women in politics.smilesnoreply@blogger.com
