Gentes' admission took courage
I am so impressed with Bill Gentes, the candidate for state Senate. His willingness to humble himself and set the record straight took guts and courage. Many of us who are capable, competent, and hard workers are experiencing the embarrassment of unemployment as well, including me.
It takes away your sense of dignity and worth and is quite embarrassing. Today's paper reports another 3 or 4 dozen lawyers have been terminated because of our horrible economy so it was never limited to blue-collar workers, small business owners or manufacturing jobs, it has taken an enormous toll across all economic and social boundaries.
Bill Gentes has many supporters who are proud of this man's integrity and commitment to better the state of government and improve the prospects of people's daily lives in his district and all Illinois. Good luck and keep moving forward Bill, we are all rooting for you!
