This blog is not for the faint of heart. It is not going to be a place to visit and read a feel good story... This is the place to find out all the bad things that public servants do or try to do. I welcome your opinion on the stories I post but I don't intend to get in a shouting match if we disagree. Thanks for visiting and have a great 2009!

Here are a couple of stories to get us started in the right direction this year! Enjoy.

• Our Bold, Dirty Illinois Governor Blago

• A friendly Lake St. Louis police officer going beyond the call of duty
