Snitches Get Stitches?
Shortly after his 2002 election, Gov. Rod Blagojevich told Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. he didn't appoint the congressman's wife for lottery director because he had refused to make a $25,000 donation to the governor's campaign, a person familiar with the conversation told The Associated Press.
"That's why she's not getting the job," the person quoted Blagojevich as saying. The person, a Jackson associate who was interviewed Tuesday by the AP, spoke on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing federal investigation.
Jackson's name has played prominently ever since Blagojevich was arrested last week on corruption charges, including allegations that the governor tried to sell or trade President-elect Barack Obama's vacant Senate seat for personal gain.

Yeah but I like the whitey bulger theory better. Maybe if they make a movie out of this Daley could be played by jack nicholson. Wait! It would probably be The Departed part two.
ahhh yes whitey bolger that shows the feds at their best..if any doesnt know about whitey and his brother and the boston mob there are tons of books out there and it shows corruption at its best
Send the Daley, Jr & Sr Jackson, and any of the Alderthiefs you can to the pen. Look how they've fucked up the City.
jesse jackson claims to help the brothers & sista's. Itseems he's only helped his own immediate family. Expose how the jacksons have abused "civil rights" to further their own family cause. Don't lock em up. let the Bros & Sista's have at em !!!!!!!!!!!!!
WELL Put SCC

Speaking of Bitches....Why is Lillie "Burger King" Crump-Hales threatening to dump every Tactical or Gang Officer that does not buy a ticket AND attend the 003rd District Christmas party? How much more can she destroy the morale of that District?? I heard she was dumb, but give me a break! Stop treating your Officers like crap! It's obvious that you were never the working Police. She is truly a joke.
Not 'instead of', but, rather, 'in addition to'.
There truly is no honor amongst thieves.
Hi Boys and Gals, it's Lt. Richie Scotchbreath. First of all, Happy Holidays. Tis the season to be drinking! Hic-up, Burp & Fart makes you feel like a new man!
Capt. Jimbo Spratte told all of us at Mt. Greenwood's TR's Bar that he was the one who originally flipped Jesse Jackson Jr.(JJJ) as a street informant. Capt Spratte said that after his original informant Huggie Bear left Chicago to star in the TV series Starsky & Hutch, Spratte ran into JJJ and used his fabulous police skills to turn JJJ into a snitch. Hic-up, Burp & Fart makes you feel like a new man!
Capt. Spratte was working on taking down the whole Black Stone Rangers and JJJ gave him the information Spratte needed to destroy this criminal street gang. On a cold winter night Capt. Spratte met with JJJ on a secluded parking lot on the far south side of Chicago. JJJ whispered the information that lead Capt. Spratte to international attention for his single handed take down of this organization. JJJ looked carefully around to make sure nobody had followed him to this secret meeting and then softly whispered....The Black Stone Rangers is an exclusively "black organization". With that information Spratte was able to narrow down the members of this gang that was involved in wide spread criminal activities in Chicago.
So let's not let the feds take credit for JJJ becoming a snitch. It was Capt Spratte's who was able to get JJJ to first talk. Hic-up, Burp & Fart makes you feel like a new man!
Remember TR's Bar is offering holiday drink specials daily. And all the free tall police tales one person can listen to.
Sincerely,
Lt. Richie Scotchbreath
Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. has been passing information to Federal authorities for years. This is correct.
What he does not articulate is the so-called offenders of this perceived corruption are his sworn political enemies. They are Bill and Bob Shaw, Bill Beavers and most recently Todd Stroger.
He is in a duel to the death over who will control the spoils on the south side and he is trying to utilize every available tool.
Sing Jesse sing.
Sing your fucking ass off. Illinois is the laughing stock of the country. Do some good for us Jesse, get Blago some more charges. Rezko too, I hear tony is singing again.
Our governor gets caught, ON TAPE, in a corruption scandal, and there the fucking jagoff is, jogging, smiling, joking, going to work as if it is all OK. As if he really is the hard working and compassionate governor he imagines he is.
My guess is he needs the paycheck and will be getting one until absolutely forced out of office. He is like a disgraced Chicago politician who knows no shame and cannot be embarrassed no matter what.
If the state were to offer him a financial settlement to go I bet he might take it. That and a plane ride to Serbia under the FBI radar. He would be treated as a conquering hero in Serbia. He could stay there with his countrymen, a bunch of eastern European hillbillies.

HEY, DUDE!
Don't blame us!!! We never even heard of your local yokel Blago till you indicted him last week!!!
.
DONT 4 GET LISA MADIGAN JUST SCREWED US ROYALLY!
SHE IS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT THE GOVERNOR. HER SHOW BOATING GOING TO THE ILLINOIS SUPREME COURT WITH THAT IDIOTIC BRIEF SHOWS THAT SHE IS AGAINST BLAGO... ALL THIS MEANS IS NOW BLAGOS OUTSIDE COUNCIL WILL BE PAID WITH TAXS FUNDS... I WONDER IF ED SMITH THE ALDERMAN IS GOING TO FIGHT THIS LIKE HE IS FIGHTING BURGE!
BUT THE CITY COUNCIL IS VERY QUIET JUST LIKE DALEY, WORRIED ABOUT LIGHT BULBS AND DUCKS.
Whatever happened to the Carothers Zoning wire-tap story? Who's co-operating with the "G" on the west side?
I don't believe Daley is an informant. I think the Crowns, Pritzkers, etc... had Bush call the dogs off because too many wealthy folks will take a bath here if the Daleys go down. They're all scared that this place would turn into a Port-Au-Prince with snow. The fight to become the new Strongman would be savage. Open warfare between the Jacksons, Carothers, Stroger/Beavers isn't a desirable enviroment for real estate development/theft.
Hispanics too disorganized to make a real run at the prize. Not enough actually vote.
Daleys are the only choice for the big money crowd.
Nobody gives a fuck about the regular working people here be they black, white, Hispanic. Never forget that and hold on to your money!
Anyone else read the New York Times article on Blago? It says he nearly never came to work at the State of Illinois building in Chicago, and was chronically late and in bad humor when he did. (Article also notes that his hairbrush needs to be readily available at his side, and he calls it the "football" as in "president's nuclear control football"). Now I've read elsewhere that Blago nearly never goes to Springfield, so am I right to conclude that our governor nearly never goes to work period?
Shouldn't he also be investigated for "theft of services", for pulling a governor's salary without providing "governor's presence at state offices"?
I've concluded that Illinois voters deserve the terrible state and local government performances that we receive. Or, is the real problem the extremely poor quality of candidates BOTH state parties present to the Illinois voter at election time?
All things to mull over...
If you've read "SHAKEDOWN: Exposing the Real Jesse Jackson" by Timmerman, obviously "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."
JJJ's "rev" father was always a master of demagoguery and hypocrisy who preyed on weak-minded lemmings and liberal masochists afflicted with terminal cases of "white guilt".
Let's not forget some of JJJ's colleagues in Congress: former Black Panther Bobby "Kill the Pigs" RUSH and "my" congressman--Danny K. DAVIS--his gerrymandered district includes the Gold Coast, the Magnificent Mile and most of Lincoln Park.
We live in the nation's most notorious clusterfuck of political corruption--all Democratic scumbags. Add King Daley ("da Mare"), "the Toddler" Stroger, Blagojevich, Durbin, Gutierrez, Schakowsky, et al. You can bet that the successors to "the Messiah" and Rahm Emanuel will also be doosies. With this crew, is it any wonder that we are the laughingstock of the country?
Since I enjoy the change of seasons, I'm contemplating a move to a large, relatively "wholesome" Midwestern city--maybe Columbus, Ohio.
P.S.: kateykakes: If you come to visit us, confine your travels to the Loop and Near North Side. Even then, be sure to bring your OC pepper spray, if not your ARMED Philly PD boyfriend.
Just finished a book called the Bulger Brothers- great read. Also, read another about Bulger. The FBI agents and supervisors were dirty as hell. Warned Bulger when state police bugged his auto repair shop. Then, The politician Bulger goes after the state police boss who did it, tried to fuck with his pension. Reminded me so much of Chicago.
old retired guy
My thought is jesse jr is using this to act like he helped the feds when they indict him he like his extorsionist daddy will try to make us beleieve he is being picked on! Patrick Fitz could please get his daddy-jesse jr-stroger-madigan and our 50 goofs soon thank you!
If the state were to offer him a financial settlement to go I bet he might take it. That and a plane ride to Serbia under the FBI radar. He would be treated as a conquering hero in Serbia. He could stay there with his countrymen, a bunch of eastern European hillbillies.

Why such hate for an ethnicity? You sir must be a drunken irish puke, the true eurpoean hillbillies. Just look at canaryville and picture a whole country like that.
Dumb and Dumber.
I can't take credit for this - it was forwarded to me today and I thought it worth sharing-in the holiday spirit!
To the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"
Get packin', Rod Blagojevich
The state's in disarray
The Tribune wants you unemployed
At least by Christmas Day.
The TV pundits want your head
Could there be pay to play?
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Save Illinois!
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.
Good riddance Rod Blagojevich
Your Elvis look's insane,
The Senate's mad, so's Lisa's dad.
You drive us all insane.
Our transit's broke, the state's a joke,
The Tollway's one big pain.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Save Illinois!
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.
Good luck old Rod Blagojevich
The feds have quite a place.
Fitzgerald's poked his nose around
And if he has a case,
George Ryan's moving stuff around
Creating extra space.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Save Illinois!

You think she can destroy morale come look at "miss ellyn" at the airport talk about destrying a good unit! Hope when she returns to 009 (soon) everyone enjoys her antics! If the airport commander was not afraid of leo she would of been moved already maybe a 2-fer her and crump!

Do ya think the G might be firing a few of us if this was the case in the CPD ?
After some thought that may be true but that would mean that the feds would have had to catch Jesse Jackson Jr dirty some time ago.How long has he been in politics? He would have to have been taught by an elder statesman how this game is played. Any one come to mind? How much info could this guy provide to the G? Unless he is working off some previous charges. He appears quite nervous on t.v. and always in the company of his wife who he looks to for assurance.
Perhaps that whole strong arming of Budweiser is what they have over him and his familia. And he is simply working that case off.
Yeah, sure.
Junior Secret Agent
If "Triple J" told me the Sun rises in the east I would go look out the window to verify.
shortshanks would not be a pimple on whitey bulger's ass....at least whitey had some loyalty ..(and how can daley be compared to anyone called "whitey"?)....that is all....

Heard he is talking with his brother the lt and a certain sgt (Driver)!
In an effort to determine the top crime fighting agency in the country, the president narrowed the field to three finalists, the CIA, the FBI, and the
Chicago Police.
The three remaining contenders were given the task of catching a rabbit which was released into the forest.
The CIA went into the forest. They placed animal informants throughout. They questioned all plant and mineral witnesses. After three months of extensive investigation they concluded that rabbits do not exist.
The FBI went into the forest. After two weeks without a capture, they burned the forest killing everything in it, including the rabbit. They made no apologies. The rabbit deserved it.
The Chicago Police went into the forest. They came out two hours later with a badly beaten bear. The bear was yelling "Okay, Okay, I'm a rabbit, I'm a rabbit

"...Port Au-Prince with snow..."
now THAT my friend, is a VERY interesting angle that some of us have wondered about for years.
the crowns & pritzkers et al have hovered on the periphery of the last 75 years of chicago politik but they have their "charitible contributions" to cover their tracks so to speak. while the daleys, joyces and their confederates are open & blatant about looting public coffers and other financial malfeasance, the old money crowd are behind the scenes with BIG MONEY POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS & UNDUE INFLUENCE perhaps? hmmmm?
maybe they did tell shrub to rein in fitz, it's feasable because they do have A LOT OF LOOT tied up in real estate here and with the depressed market they've taken notice for sure. it'll be curious to see how things go with bho as potus as they've invested heavily in him...
...a strange and interesting angle indeed...
SSC WHAT HAPPENED TO CPD CAPT PAUL TASCH?
"12/19/2008 03:52:00 AM"
That was brutal in it's authenticity.
"shortshanks would not be a pimple on whitey bulger's ass....at least whitey had some loyalty ..(and how can daley be compared to anyone called "whitey"?)....that is all....
12/18/2008 09:31:00 PM"
What do you base that assertion on?
Bulger was only loyal to who he got his shakedown cash from. He was too busy dealing dope, extorting money& murdering the residents of Southie. Bulger is a piece of garbage who's date w/ destiny is long overdue.
"Bulger is a piece of garbage who's date w/ destiny is long overdue.
12/19/2008 05:25:00 PM"
Swap 'Daley' for 'Bulger' and your statement still remains true.
Fredo's date with destiny is also long overdue; allowing dope dealing and murdering while lining his thieving pockets (along with his rat bastard pals)...glad you NOW can see the similiarity...two crooks trading on their irish "lucky charms" and corrupting all around them..(get your head out of his ass)...that is all....
Old man Pritzker(Abe)made his millions laundering money for the Chicago Mafia in the days of Torrio,Capone,Ricca,and Accardo.Behind every great fortune there is great crime.
Talking about snitches, look no further than the Cridical Incident Coordinator for the SWAT team. Sgt D.Mc. Jr.
