Illinois State Representative Furious Over a Bill

Rep. Mike Bost (R-Murphysboro), launched into a tirade this Tuesday as he complained about the amount of power Speaker Madigan wields. Bost screamed, yelled and threw papers as he expressed frustration about the Democrat-led plan to overhaul the state pension system, which would require the State to raise property taxes to fund pension costs that are now picked up by the state, ....pensions undoubtabley "negotiated" by Unions.

Cowboy's comment: I guess the U.S. Congress isn't the only legislative body to have idiots like Nancy "pass the bill to find out whats in it" Pelosi.

In part Bost shouts “Total power in one person’s hands – not the American way!” The he threw several sheets of paper in the air and punch them as they landed. “These damn bills that come out here all the damn time, come out here at the last second!” Bost said as he threw the papers on the floor. “I’ve got to figure out how to vote for my people! You should be ashamed of yourselves! I’m sick of it!” Bost went on. “Every year! We give power to one person! It was not made that way in the Constitution!”

You Go Mr Bost! You're a Patriot!!
