As much as I dislike Rahm, this is pretty sweet. We’ve been putting up with these dickish ¨Illinnoyed?¨
billboards paid for by Indiana to lure businesses away. Revenge is a dish best served hot, in this case.
Suck it, Pence.

Of course, the baggers will claim that this is totally different from states trying to get businesses relocated by offering tax abatement.

As much as I dislike Rahm, I have no problem with this at all. I would consider the move as not only political but a real quality of life issue.

I sure hope other states send these businesses letters as well. The only thing that will make this even better is if a number of these businesses bite and decide to move.

Well, we’ll see how the free-market works. Can towns and cities opt out of the state’s gayhate law?

Smart guy!
The best thing that could happen would be if Indiana didn’t clarify and weasel out of this law. And everyone sticks to their guns with their boycotts. Instead the Regressives will fiddle with the language of the law, make it look like they have reversed and clarified, business will capitulate and then it will be back to business as usual.
To really make the point all of the protestors need something more than feet of clay and stay the course.

You left out the “on libtards” part. Once they quit smelling their own farts, the entire Hoosier GOTP contingent will wage war on reality to whip LGBT-loving companies into compliance.
Never let a good crisis go to waste.
Ah, yes . . . I’d forgotten that he’s in a run-off for the mayoral election. Perhaps he’s trying to do himself a solid here amongst progressives?
I’d prefer not to sound cynical about this, but once one remembers that there’s an election coming up and Emanuel is having trouble appealing to progressives, it’s hard to avoid considering how this might look when viewed in that context.

Huh?
Regardless, I don’t expect they will ever make it past step 1.
