8094: Politicians Qualified For Ad Careers…?


The political races are exposing ugliness nationwide, and Illinois is no stranger to attack commentary. State Senator Rickey Hendon (pictured above) zinged Republican gubernatorial nominee Bill Brady at a Saturday rally. “I’ve never served with such an idiotic, racist, sexist, homophobic person in my life,” said Hendon of Brady during his introduction of Governor Pat Quinn. “If you think that the minimum wage needs to be three dollars an hour, vote for Bill Brady. If you think that women have no rights whatsoever, except to have his children, vote for Bill Brady. If you think gay and lesbian people need to be locked up and shot in the head, vote for Bill Brady.” Yikes. Don’t know if the accusations are true, but if Brady fails in his bid for governor, he’s certainly qualified to lead on Madison Avenue.
