Stupid Illinois Repulican Sen. Chris Lauzen
The state Senate voted 52-1 in favor of allowing mothers to
breast-feed their babies in any public or private place. State Sen. Don Harmon, D-Oak Park, proposed the legislation after a woman from his district complained that she was kicked out of a fitness club for breast-feeding her child. State Sen. Chris Lauzen, R-Aurora, was the lone dissenter. The legislation is Senate bill 3211. It now moves to the House. In debate Lauzen asked what would happen if a school principal asked a mother to stop breast feeding because it was disprupting students. The bill is to prevent women from sue for damage. NOTE: ADDING SEIGLE REACT) Comptroller hopeful files slander suit By KRIS KUDENHOLDT SPRINGFIELD, Ill., March 10 (UPI) - Republican comptroller hopeful Chris Lauzen wants a judge to put a halt to the negative campaign ads being run by his political opponent. Lauzen, a state senator from Geneva, filed a $1 million lawsuit against Harry Seigle, the East Dundee lumberyard owner who is challenging him in the Republican primary for comptroller. Seigle is using radio ads that claim a firm once run by Lauzen did not pay its taxes. The ad claims that is proof that Lauzen is unfit to hold public office. Besides the money, Lauzen wants an injunction to prevent the ad from airing in the future. He plans to file his lawsuit Wednesday in Kane County Circuit Court. Aides to Seigle, who has never held elective office but has been a political fundraiser for both Democrats and Republicans, dismissed the lawsuit as ``frivolous,'' noting Lauzen has been airing a critical radio ad that features a President Clinton impersonator who calls Seigle ``my kind of Democrat, I mean Republican.'' Lauzen sees a difference. ``Sure politics is rough and tumble, and I'm used to it,'' Lauzen said. ``But my opponent has now gone beyond the rough and tumble and crossed the line.'' Lauzen said the statement about Lauzen's old firm and taxes was the last straw in the radio ad, which also claims Lauzen ``opened the door to more gambling in Illinois'' and ``isn't even qualified for State Comptroller.'' He called Seigle ``callous and careless,'' and said he would pursue the court action even if he wins the primary. Lauzen said the firm mentioned in the Seigle ad was not closed for not paying its taxes in 1991 and was not charged by the U.S. Department of Justice with deception trade practices, contrary to what the ad claims. ``I have always paid my taxes,'' said Lauzen. -- Copyright 1998 by United Press International. All Rights Reserved. -- Unfavorable views of Republican John Shimkus Illinois congressman as a person have reached record levels. It seems fair to say that many Congressman John Shimkus, like most of the rest of the world, simply don't trust him anymore. But some Americans will respond to upbeat messages, no matter how unrealistic. And that may be enough for Mr. Shimkus beause while he poses as someone above the fray, he is continuing to solidify his base. Conservative congressman John Shimkus is the dumbest congressman Illinois has ever had. George Ryan has his cronies to prop him up. .... Eventually he will crumble, things will go bad!!
