Richard "Dick" Durbin (Democrat-Illinois) was just asked that by Jim Cramer on Meet the Press. He stated that he does not want the tariff removed and he strongly supports it to discourage ethanol imports. It's ok apparently to import oil from unfriendly countries, but he doesn't want a drop of ethanol coming in from say Brazil, unless it's taxed high enough to make it unworkable. He also says that he does NOT support more nuclear power but also does NOT support more oil, gas, or coal generation either. Instead he favors more hybrid cars and electric cars (to get their power from those generators he doesn't want, you see.) If any of this makes any sense at all to you and you live in Illinois, keep voting for that guy. If you missed the discussion, I think CNBC will rerun it tonight. |

If any state or foreign country would like Durbin they are welcome to him. He has a simple philosophy...he is against everything. I have no idea why people vote for him except that he is a democrat and many people in IL blindly vote for democrats. |

The dead in Illinois still vote democrat, Mayor Daley Sr and
Jr have a strong hold on the whole state. The governor answers to the Mayor, so much so that he has moved the official functions and offices to Chicago, the Official Capitol in Springfield is partly a ghost town. Durbin the Turban actually lives in a village on the edge of Springfield that is all country club and million dollar homes. -- James H. Macklin ATP,CFI,A&P -- The people think the Constitution protects their rights; But government sees it as an obstacle to be overcome. some support http://www.usdoj.gov/olc/secondamendment2.htm See http://www.fija.org/ more about your rights and duties.
