A Picture Says Plenty

Barack Obama and Jack Franks

Franks and Obama are beaming. Probably because they have government jobs.

And power.

And prestige.

The picture is from Franks’ web site. If you are a liberal democrat, I guess you want your picture shown with Obama.

In the upper left there’s a quote from Jack Franks that I find ironic. It’s about twelve years of fighting “to end government waste, corruption and out of control taxes.”

Apparently Franks didn’t get the memo that Illinois is broke and Blago, whom he wanted elected, is on trial.

Franks is a lawyer so I imagine in lawyerly fashion every effort he is getting paid for is a success even when you look at the last decade and see increasing waste, corruption and higher taxes in Illinois.
