Does your word matter Mr. Gougis?


Mr. Gougis swore and oath to be a public servant.  He also swore and oath to honor and love his wife when he got married and then decided to have two children.  How much do these oaths matter to this man?  Apparently not at all.

Recent information is that Mr. Gougis, the only black male school board member, has been dating a blond home wrecking broad, as seen last year at the Sox game with him.  His marriage is ending leaving his two young children, under the age of 7, to live without a daddy day to day. 

The sad truth is that the elected officials in Bolingbrook suffer and extreme deficit of moral judgement and character.  It has been observed over the last many years that the Mayor himself dabbles in blonds on the side from his marriage.  Bill Mayer carried on a lucrative affair with another Bolingbrook employee last year, who then got promoted.  And so other male officials have learned that to be sponsored by Rog and get his endorsements, you have to be willing to play in the same games of loose moral in which allegedly engages.  Which means affairs, alcohol, and other party times indicative of people lacking judgement to run their own lives--let alone run a village.

Last year Claar backed Gougis, took him to a ball game and some residents video taped their behavior and women.  How long do these elected officials carry on immoral behavior?  Do their spouses know about the cheating? 

The biggest question is who cares?  Well, I do.  My spouse feels this way too.  I think many women would feel that way.  Cheating politicians do not get a woman's vote.  Cheating politicians do not get the religious vote either, both male and female.  Cheating politicians do not get the older vote, especially from those that have put up with their spouses with love for over 20 years.  So whose vote are they getting?  They are not getting the young vote, as the young don't vote in Bolingbrook often.  It makes us wonder how rigged the voting system in Bolingbrook really is.

I am going to end this story with a quote from a local resident.  I think it suits just fine.

"Mr. Gougis, you should have thought twice about putting your affair on TV last year at the game.  Flaunting an affair that leaves a wife and two young children without a daddy or husband is atrocious.  It is the time that a wife needs her husband the most, and the time two young children need their daddy the most.  Their world will never be the same because you could not keep your pants up.  I mean, did you NOT love your wife enough to marry her and make her give birth to TWO of your children?  That was asking a lot to begin with.  You're a self serving bastard, not a public servant.  No wonder Roger likes and support you".

DuPage Democrats hold Open House



Many typical faces were present at the DuPage Townships open house at Home Run Inn Pizza this week.  Time and time again we see the same faces running for office and hope that new blood steps forward.  However, the event was nice and cordial.  The air of excitement about running another election was thick in the air. 

We were suprised to see The Independent Party Board Member Bob Bowen there.  He was very interested in meeting the candidates and being an educated voter.  We hope to see him next election!

If you went to the event, post your thoughts, opinions, and more below!

Yard Waste Bolingbrooks new tax to help offset extreme debt

Yes, it i time for Bolingbrook to be creative on how many more areas they can yank money from your pockets.  You see, there is a huge debt in Bolingbrook that must be repaid.  Debt incurred by a rubber stamp trustee board and a spendaholic mayor who made some bad business decisions on losing ventures. 

Well now the Golf Course losses, as well as the airport and Americana Estates will be coming from your pockets. 

I know, it is not the first time.  First they increased food, liquor, and hotel taxes to offset this.  But the debt is still growing and your money is not enough. 

Now they are adding a $2.50 tax to every bag you want to throw away from yard waste.  That is more than Naperville charges.

But hey, when you vote the spendaholics into office, this is what you get. 

The last time they tried to get creative about taxing the residents, they installed red light cameras.  That cost us a bundle and had to be stopped. Another poor decision.  Let's see where this one leads!

One resident told me today that the next thing they will have to do is car stickers and dog tags again.  Silly that they keep going into the same pockets for more and more money.  Bolingbrook residents are NOT rich. I repeat, they are NOT rich.  Eventually, all these extra taxes will only lead to more foreclosures, higher property taxes, and a complete inability to sell your home.  Thanks Roger Claar!
