Gershon Wolf Poet Clerihew

Mr Pritzker, I Quit, Sir

The latest Governor of Illinois is Mr. J.B. Pritzker
Your legislative accomplishments make me Illinois want to quit, sir
   You've legalized all abortions and recreational marijuana too
   Increased government spending; raised my taxes -- Farewell to you!

Caren Krutsinger June 28, 2019 at 4:36 AM So I am guessing he does not have your vote? Are you quitting Illinois or just quitting Pritzker? Gershon Wolf June 28, 2019 at 10:15 AM I'd love to leave Illinois asap; the sticking point is that my wife loves it here, and all her relatives live in Illinois (or in Israel --- and we're not moving there). As Mr. Trump says, "We'll see what happens." :) gw

Panagiota Romios June 27, 2019 at 11:34 AM Gershon, far worse in California. Our crackpot governor invites ALL women who want an abortion to move here. With the homeless population growing, it's frightening. See LA and SF. However, HaShem is in charge, not any Tiddlywinks. And the electorate thinks they know more than God? Hah! Shalom, Panagiota Gershon Wolf June 27, 2019 at 1:16 PM Hey, Mr. Pritzker's just getting started. Give him a couple of years, and IL will be the Midwest California. Next up is legalizing sports gambling everywhere, even in convenience stores. Onward and downward for the Land of Lincoln. Thanks for the perspective, Panagiota! :) gw

I had to channel my 'inner Seuss' to come up with that one, I guess. Here's to waving bye! Thanks again. Warmest wishes, Gershon
