Guilty - Sixteen Times

Cleared on eight counts, but two-thirds, including mail and wire fraud, gives the government some leverage on Rezko.

Start squeezing.

Like it or not folks in Blue Obama is going to win. He might win by a slim majority but he is going to win! You all can shout, groan, and bluster but Obama will WIN. I remember when Harold Washington won. When I finished my probationary year Harold Washington spoke at the Academy Gym. That was awesome. Seeing Barrack Obama was 400 times as nice. America will win just like CHicago won when Harolsd was elected. No basketball hoops were installed on the Picasso, the city did not go bankrupt, and the crime rate did not go off the ricter scale. On his second run Harold got a majority of the white vote. Harold made history and Epton went into obscurity. You can bet Father Phleger will be back on the set......

Happy House Mouse

PS I hit the medical today so I could celebrate Obamas triumph with my family. And it was fun hitting the medical after going ten years without a single medical roll day.

Good for you! If you want a man to be president just for the color of his skin and not the content of his character (sound familiar?) thats great. An untested, son of a Muslim with a racist wife will be a great leader. Maybe Rezko can be Vice Prez! Not to mention that this guy is a former drug dealer, a possible "down low" ranger and people pop up dead around him like his last name was Clinton. Good news is this guy is political novice and can't walk 3ft. without stepping in shit.I agree that Harold was a good guy and had experience to run a city. The only reason Obama is even in the race is because he is half black.
Barak wins and you go on the medical!!!! Enough said.

Like most Democratic candidates Obama relied on the ignorance of his constituency. His was truly a campaign about nothing. He is the least qualified person to run for president in my lifetime and that includes Pat Paulson and Snoopy. This will not last into the general election when people actually start paying attention.
Obama will learn, "You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time but, YOU CAN'T FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME."

You know what I find remarkable and yet so typical of the Chicago media which has no balls whatsoever?

Who really is this Iraqi "Rezko"? Was he born with that name?

How did he come to being in the U.S.?

What is the history if his family?

What is his history since his stinky ass hit the shores of our country?

How is it he so aptly met those in power when most of us never rub elobows with them?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Get off your fucking asses you so called investigative Chicago journalists!

Once again. If you want to read a very detailed accounting of the Rezko/Daley/Obama/Wilhelm/Blago/Davis et al. square dance google Evelyn Pringle and Obama Rezko and you should be navigated to a very detailed and what I believe to be accurate expose on these oily political figures written by Pringle. She is pro Hillary but in spite of that she has done her research.

Both political parties know this.

It's why they take turns at being the ruling party.

Like being trapped on opposite ends of an eternally moving teeter-totter, we, the people, repeat the same mistakes, over and over and over.

Hope you took the rest of the day to reflect on what a total fool you, and all Obama supporters, are. You must love giving all you earn to those who produce nothing for society.

And as for your medical roll usage goes, all your not hitting the medical has done is offset all the medical used by your brothers for skin bumps.

To the author who commented, "PS I hit the medical today so I could celebrate Obamas triumph with my family. And it was fun hitting the medical after going ten years without a single medical roll day."

Looks like your not going to get a ribbon or any creditability either.

Corruption surrounds Obama and Blago with Rezko being found guilty in Federal court. You are blind when you celebrate their corruption, promote it, vote it and celebrate it for yourself as a personal gain by taking a bogus medical day off? The word LOSER comes to mind when I think of the author of those comments.

I don't agree with giving blind loyalty to anyone "just because."

The real election hasn't even started yet and I am NOT voting for a guy who says nothing, knows and has done very little.

--MASSIVE POLICE INDIFFERENCE & UNPREPAREDNESS --

And this is different from any time in Chicago's history how? Its not like most of those who took the oath are driving around in marked cars on any given day anyway. More than 50% of the department is not even assigned to anything where work is expected, and its only those remaining in the field who matter if they are "indifferent".

Chicago burned many times. What's one more?

In your mind will the next time be the first? And Obama's fault?

Giggle giggle, snort snort.

I work in 022 and if you knew Doroniuk, you'd know he's a total jack-ass! I've known him since he came on this job and he's always been cocky and a know-it-all. I honestly believe these incidents were done by he and Shamah, with ABSOLUTELY no involvement from any other Officers. He was on a good team with a good Sgt, and although this piece of shit will try anything to save his ass, I truly believe he and his patner acted alone. He is a First-Class piece of shit!!

--You must love giving all you earn to those who produce nothing for society.--

Uhm, like all those who comment here about how they are done with actually doing any police work?

The bottom 80 or 90% in the U.S. has actually seen declines in income over the last 20 or 25 years, when adjusted for inflation. Yes son, that includes you.

Can you afford the home you were raised in? For most in this country under 50, the answer is no. At least, not without personal debt which has expanded to astronomical levels not seen anywhere else in the world except the U.K.

And when the bankruptcy laws were reformed a few years ago, who benefitted?

Why, creditors.

The same creditors now being bailed out by the Fed when securities based on this debt decrease in value due to the sheer inability of so many americans to pay their debts.

Obama might not be the answer, but you sure as hell are not asking the right questions.

Look around, as Ronald Reagan once said. Are you doing better than you were 4 years ago? 8 years ago? 12 years ago? 16 years ago?

This country faces huge internal problems, and you have allowed your attention to be diverted from these problems by artificially low itnerest rates and an inopportune foreign adventure in Iraq.

You are still worried about welfare recipients, while the old people scream in anguish if anyone threatens not to pay them social security for which they did not contribute enough. While homeowners scream in anguish if anyone threatens the precious mortgage interest deduction. While drivers scream in anguish when asked to pay the same price for oil as is payed in countries with actual energy policies.

You are still worried about welfare recipients, but remain silent while dozens or hundreds of posts appear here from people essentially claiming that they will collect a check but not do any more work than absolutely necessary.

The country is in an unprecedented mess, and you are drawing cartoons.

Firstly, there aren't too many Oprah and Obama supporters in the military. If there are, they're probably in the Navy.

Second, it's McCain. McClain was Bruce Willis' character in Die Hard.

Third, we've been in Japan and Germany for 63 years at last count and probably will be for another 37 minimum. We pay a pretty penny in rent as we will for bases in Iraq.

What's your point?
