Not from the Onion: Pat Quinn named chairman of Midwestern Governors Association

Illinois Governor Pat Quinn, who lied his way to reelection, was named chairman of the Midwestern Governors Association earlier this week.

"I am honored to become Chairman of the Midwestern Governors Association. The association has a long history of governors who are committed to working together to improve our entire region, and I look forward to continuing that legacy," said Governor Quinn. "Now, more than ever, we need to band together to create sustained economic growth and success throughout the Midwest."

Governor Quinn assumed office on Monday, January 10, 2011 and will serve as chair through February of 2012.
Quinn's otherworldly tax increase will bolster the economies of the Midwestern states. I guess the other governors are saying "Thank you."

This post is not a prank, nor is it from the Onion.

It is like the Rust Belt is suicidal or something.
