    Joliet is the first American town constructed entirely on an abandoned ship.

    Is anyone on the BBS remotely affected by Joliet Township? Seriously curious.

    Well, it just reminded me of the Blues Brothers and I smiled a little.

    So yes.

    As a republican, I don’t think I’ve ever seen people that identify with my party be such b****y victimhooders

    Didn’t read but knowing OP know exactly what it probably says

    Nope. Republicans would say it never happened, cry "fake news" and "liberal media hit piece", maybe throw in a "deep state" or two and keep on using it as hiring criteria.

    If they then actually got caught by the law, they'd possibly hold a press conference where they'd say they never claimed to be equal opportunity employers, and say liberal prosecutors shouldn't be overturning elections and if the people had a problem with what they did, criminal proceedings are unnecessary as the people could just vote them out of office in a year or so.

    I know that as a moderate democrat you could apply for that job.

    That OP article looks like it came from one of those goofy Facebook feed cut & paste jobs so popular with aging gullible boomers. Or the Russians...

    Hah, I wish you made that up out of anger. Let's just ignore whats happening in states like Wisconsin.

    Seems odd the party that repeatedly toes the line on voter suppression (the ones who do it blatantly are "the exception") can have supporters so fragile and weak kneed.

    Many people are saying that nowadays

    You have to flush the Joliet 10, 15 times, as opposed to once

    Has anyone here been to Joliet or is all that familiar with it? I got the township as a client for my firm probably 5 to 10 years ago.

    Joliet has been hit hard economically for decades but with the expansion of Naperville the areas all around Joliet are becoming very valuable and it is starting to turn Joliet around. The county is competitive for both Democrats and Republicans. More so than the overall state.
