Kankakee Voices

These are two recent articles that were a direct result of Kankakee Voices letter to the House Ethics Committe regarding Weller's conflict of interest with CAFTA. They refere to us as "wacky" .... hey ya know what they say.. if they're talking......
Groups get early start to try to oust Weller and Critics target Weller

True to form, Weller "ducks" the issues at hand, and refuses to "engage" anyone or anything..
On John Pavich, from the first article linked.
"We have no intention of engaging them," said Steve Shearer, Weller's campaign manager. "(Pavich) is trying to have a high-profile campaign for 19 or 20 months. The congressman has to focus on his responsibilities, and the time to address this is a few months before the election."

Here's my favorite part, where they refer to Kankakee Voices. "This is a very small group," Weller's spokesman said of the opposition. "The congressman has no intention of engaging them." After they said, "Kankakee Voices is truly wacky," Shearer said. "One good thing about democracy is that a tiny group of people can be very loud and get their point across,...." tee heee heee....

On a side note, I contacted Weller's office the Friday before the July 4th weekend to see if he would be making any appearances in his district. I was told "due to security reasons, that informantion cannot be realeased, but we will send out a press announcment NEXT WEEK" (after the fact) Jerry "DUCK and RUN" Weller obviously either had no plans on coming to make an appearance due to his un-popularity, or maybe he JUST WASN'T INVITED !!!!

I was also informed that Jerry's house is nearing completion and He and his wife plan on moving in, in the NEXT TWO MONTHS. Then she added, unless of course busniess in Washington prevents that. See how Weller's staff is trained so well in "double speak"? I look for Jerry to move in around Sept 2006 myself, just so he can say "see I do live here."
