Open letter to Governor Quinn: Sir: We all know the budget is a mess and will require close scutiny to attempt to wright the oceanliner that is Illinois Government. I only plead that if cuts are needed, that we make them in areas that we can justifiably sacrifice. While we have seen in the past that you have been a good supporter of education, the fear amongst those that I associate with and care for is that education may take a back seat to state programs that are seen as immediate neccessities. Yes, like the rest of the country, we all need jobs, but education of our Children and Workforce is much more important in the long run. I implore you to keep up and possibly increase funding for public education, especially workforce education so we are not all left supporting McDonalds at both sides of the counter. Yes, Illinois needs to attract Jobs, but the best thing to attract the kind of Jobs we need here, is a capable and educated work force. Thanks Matthew Dunn

It is amazing that Mr. Mckenna would elect to be critical of Gov. Quinn already. It seems to me that our x-gov. should be the one that should be saying he is sorry to the people. Let's see, what else can we can we find fault with Gov. Quinn, perhaps the color of his tie. Good grief----
