Blue Dog (Blue Cross Dog) Democrats bolted from the protection of the public this week refusing to support a plan to give an healthcare option to 47 million uninsured Americans, rejecting President Obama's Public Health Care option. Of course, the elected officials who oppose the public health care plan have done everything they can to protect their own health care which is the best in the world. Good enough for the elected officials but not for the public.

Illinois Gov Pat Quinn submits a six month budget proposal after being able to secure votes for a record-setting and unprecedented income tax hike, in response to the refulsal of Democrats and Republicans to vote on a tax hike before they know who will be filing to run against them in their legislative districts in the Spring. Filing will be completed in November and legislators not concerned abut challenges will flipflop like catfish on a fishing boat deck and support the income tax hike. But not before. Illinois House Speaker Michael J. Madigan, the de facto governor, will give the word when the spineless legislators can actually act.
