Daley Out of Town - Again

How does he always manage to miss the uncomfortable questions that arise with a big scandal? And this time he has a doozy of an excuse:
  • As local Olympic officials prepare for Wednesday's announcement on which of the cities still in the running will make the first cut, a pair of experts called Chicago a front-runner in the contest to host the 2016 Games.

    Chicago is expected to be one of the three to five finalists when an International Olympics Committee panel announces its technical rankings in Athens. The campaign then will swing to convincing the larger IOC membership to vote for Chicago in the final round, in October 2009.

Convincing = bribing Olympic Officials, either by impressive trips, luxurious overnight stays, or the ever popular briefcase full of cash. Should Chicago make the cut, we'll have something amusing ready to go.

This guy is always out of town when people in his administration get indicted or convicted. Whenever some city contractor he "doesn't know" gets indicted or convicted. Or whenever the media runs a less than flattering story about a city department. A city hall employee I trust told me he takes, no joking, 5-7 overseas trips a year. The trips are always ten days to three weeks long. Overseas trips! He also travels to "conferences" throughout the country every year in addition to the overseas travel. He goes to San Diego, Arizona, Florida, Boston, New York on official business. His overseas trips have included Ireland, China, France, Italy, England, Spain, Japan, Sweden, Hong Kong, New Zealand, and Australia to name a few. Many countries he has been to numerous times. He travels with an entourage too. His wife always goes. His press secretary always goes, a few aides always go, a handful of CPD bodyguards always go, and usually some city department head. We pay for all of this under the guise of "Official city business". I realize as the Mayor of Chicago he has to travel on occasion, but WTF! This is outrageous.

I'm planning my furlough for 2016. It will be somewhere other than Chicongo. Maybe Michigan or Indiana. Gas might be 7 bucks a gallon, so I'll just walk.

Slick Willie used to do that all the time when he was the president. But in fairness, most of the trips are paid for by one of the civic groups that has in interest in the commercial aspect of the trip., ie restaurant associations, chamber of commerce, etc.

You think this city is run by clout now?

Just wait for President Obama and see what a direct line to the White House will do for Chicago. We just might get to see if candidate and perhaps President Obama keeps his promise of keeping Patrick Fitzgerald as US Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois.

My money says no fucking way.

Expect someone from the Chicago, Illinois Good 'Ole Boys Lawyer Club to be swiftly ensconced in the Federal Building in downtown Chicago as the new US Attorney.

You did a good job Mr. Fitzgerald. too bad the job needs someone like you but with a lifetime appointment to unravel the generations of graft and corruption that are part and parcel of the fabric of life here.

-----------------------------------

Do you honestly think Mayor "Greed" would actually give the police a chance to make money? I think not. Someone in his family or close friend with a security firm will get the contract to provide security for the olympics.

The Olympics are coming NO DOUBT ABOUT IT! The deal has been cut and Obama who is beholding to the Mayor will insist on it also when he becomes president in November. Hes as corupt as the mayor.

Sorry off topic.

Just like in the ghetto. The dumber you are, the longer you live....

GENEVA (AFP) - It doesn't pay to be smart and ignorance really is bliss if you want a long life -- at least if you're a fly, according to new research by a Swiss university.

Scientists Tadeusz Kawecki and Joep Burger at the University of Lausanne said Wednesday they had discovered a "negative correlation between an improvement in a fly's mental capacity and its longevity".

O.T. Early wednesday morning 613 was in a head on collision with a semi-truck. He seemed to be OK at the scene.

Thank God his airbags worked.

Hopefully everything is OK.
We got the call.

In the last several years we were able to determine who the veterans were by their revolvers. Now we can spot a rookie with his glock lolol. Nicely oiled with one additional magazine.
Just don't give the rookies m-4s for a few years. I know they love putting the pretty rookies on tac after probation. Hay look at the rookie he got on after the police became girlscouts (Nice Hair).
HA HA... a few years later those PPOs can become FTOs for new unarmed PPOs. Subsequent to that, after 3 years without a C.R., they will be issued bean bag shotguns and tazers.
There will be an I.A.D. saturation team and gun team (just in case a PPO brings a real gun to work). Mayor Daley's brother-in-law will be Mayor of Chicago. Hillary's daughter will be president.
There will be a height requirement. Yes, you would think everybody is equal by then. Unfortunately, If you are over
5'2" you will not be able to apply for the job.
The good news is that the caucasians(to be politically correct lol) will get affirmative action. Steve Wilkos will become Top Cop. The show COPS will come to Chicago live.

By the way FBI reject Brust. It's against the CPD rules to accept free meals from people who work for you. You are stealing a healthy paycheck. Pay for your own meals, parasite.
