Political campaign lies to steal your vote
In a recent story on McHenry County Recorder Joe Tirio’s suit to try to unmask the Illinois Integrity Fund (“Tirio continues ‘integrity fund’ probe,” page 3, July 26) it is despicable how Natalie Harris compares the political language of the “crooked Joe” flyer to the Federalist Papers.
Is she kidding?
The Federalist Papers are a collection of newspaper essays written in defense of the Constitution.
The essays defined and defended the merits of the Constitution as a necessary and good replacement for the Articles of Confederation, which had proven insufficient as a means of governance.
They were elegantly written, not viciously written with defamatory accusations and lies!
The purpose of the person or people behind the Illinois Integrity Fund mailers was to steal your vote!
Here’s something to think about:
If one mattress store said something so blatantly false about another mattress store, there would be a price to pay.
Certainly the Founders held free speech sacred, but just as certainly, they would not stand silently by as one political faction lied to the citizenry about another faction in order to steal their votes.
I suggest Natalie Harris and the Illinois Integrity Fund take a free online course on the Federalist Papers and the Constitution.
All available through Hillsdale College.
Maybe this will help them understand the true intent of our Founders.

The case will be in Judge Kevin Costello’s courtroom (204) at 1:30 on Thursday, August 23rd.
This Letter to the Editor deals with IDEAS regarding our Nation’s founding.
As such, it leaves the Left baffled; they don’t know how to respond to idea based arguments.
Few to no Leftists can even pass the Elanore Roosevelt test.
I especially find it hilarious that the group putting out these dispicable lies about Tirio use the word” Integrity” in their name-
Then they hide in the shadows like cowards.
They clearly don’t even know what the word Integrity means!
Any guesses as to who put these out?
fake news …. what’s new about it?
“Remember the Maine” … and the American cattle are stampeded into a phony war …
That’s why I love Trump, the whole rotten house of cards of media lies is collapsing ….

Sorry to break the news to you people … this is McHenry County.
The Judge will put a stop to Tirio’s suit, FAST.
“I especially like the part where they use the term Integrity in their name then hide in the shadows like cowards.
“Does anyone even know what integrity means anymore?”
Greg, If you’re going to use a quote, Get it right
Tirio will get no justice in McHenry County. My prediction.
