Politics does indeed make for strange bedfellows.

If these guys ever need a fourth for golf…

This is why golf outings matter

Who would have thunk it. Gotta be a deep fake or one of three doesn’t know who the other 2 guys are. Other possibility is Jon C just completed a Dale Carnegie course

The best way to really know someone is play 9 holes of golf.

Catanzara called after this post went up.

Also, everybody in that pic knows exactly who everybody else is.

A lot of deals get cut on the 19th hole.

Comment by Capitol Observer Monday, Aug 21, 23 @ 4:10 pm
Probably should’ve posted this one and avoided the usual Senate comment drag /s

====usual Senate comment drag===

The Senate is the “Gen X” branch of all Illinois government

To the “new caption” entry…

Lucky 7s, these guys are 11s

I wonder if his members are pleased to see him consorting with people he tries to convince them are their enemies.

Union Money,power and votes make for strange bedfellows

“Ok, in this next one, let’s get Lightfoot right in the middle”

I’ve never heard Welch say the fop are their enemies. He has disagreed on policy with them but it seems smart that he’s accessible to everyone. Even JC.

Seven? I’m guessing there were a lot of sevens on their scorecards after this round.

===I wonder if his members are pleased===

Nobody wants a Democratic primary opponent, even if they are from the right.

I’ll have a 7 and 7

This demonstrates that “drugs are bad, mmmmkay?”

Comment by Lt Guv Monday, Aug 21, 23 @ 5:08 pm
and I thought golf made me sick….

===I’ve never heard Welch say the fop are their enemies.===

Funny, I interpreted the comment to be referring to Catanzara and his hot headed comments about Dems.

A quote from long ago-

In politics, there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends, only permanent interests.

Looks like a classic Dave Sullivan bringing people together. Good to see.

Why Lenin did what Lenin did….

Is that an awesome photo bomb by Illinois Supreme Court Justice Mary Kay O’Brien applauding this instant classic picture?
