Daley Lied....Again

Gee, we called this years ago. And so did half our readership:
  • Mayor Daley finally sounds ready to give the International Olympic Committee the financial guarantee it is seeking.

    The mayor told reporters in Switzerland that he’ll sign a host city contract with the committee putting taxpayers on the hook for any financial losses if the city wins the summer 2016 games — even as some aldermen grumbled Daley is exceeding his authority.

Jackie Heard is spinning so fast that if you wrapped her in copper wire and surrounded her with magnets, she could power Chicago for a month:
  • Back in Chicago, mayoral press secretary Jacquelyn Heard stressed that Chicago 2016 has come up with a series of guarantees and private funding formulas for the proposed $4.8 billion game plan, so taxpayers won’t be footing the bill.
Unfortunately for Jackie, the record shows something completely at odds with her contentions:
  • Daley initially vowed that not a dime of taxpayer dollars would be spent on the 2016 games, but after the last election — and a prod by the United States Olympic Committee to “put some skin in the game” — the City Council approved the financing.
And guess what? There are PILES of money lying around. Piles that should be funding our contract, our retro and our pensions:
  • The net already includes: a $450 million “rainy day fund;” as much as $375 million in IOC cancellation insurance; an additional $500 million in insurance coverage, a state guarantee of $250 million and a “last-resort” $500 million guarantee of taxpayer money from the city of Chicago.
Here's what ought to happen:
  • The Pension Fund, or a member of it, needs to file a lawsuit in Federal Court demanding that these "rainy day" monies be used to fund existing pension liabilities. The pension must be funded by State law;
  • Gannon's people need to march. They are actually talking about 1,500 layoffs and pay cuts while Daley sits on billions? Step up;
  • The FOP better have an ace up it's sleeve that guarantees retro or face the possibility of being dissolved as the bargaining representative. Daley has all this money and we're getting screwed?
Government has obligations. Those obligations must be paid for before spending money on some ridiculous waste of time like the Olympics just to assuage Daley's swelled ego.

This would be exactly the time for someone to start a run for mayor based on a "Daley lied" mantra. He's vastly exceeding his authority it would seem and when these construction contracts start rolling through the City Council, we'd hope that the Feds have everyone wired up the ass for deals and quid pro quos. The challenger could also run on a "referendum" platform that would submit the question of an Olympics to the voting public and then when it loses, refuse to spend a dime on the entire event.

fyi

the bridges for the redline, metra and lake shore drive are in such bad shape i predict a collapse of one of the bridges or overpasses in the very near future.

how can we take on the olympics when the city's infrustructure is literally crumbling.

if the feds or state looked at all these bridges I would believe they would be condemed.

imagine this city with no redline, metra, and no lake shore drive. and what if the city puts this off for another few years and we do get the olympics? how fucking embarassing it would be to shut down large portions of our city's transportation system a few years before the olympics for a massive overhaul?

drive around and look at all the stuff that needs to be fixed. many of these bridges and overpasses are 75-100 years old.

and the last question, who is going to pay for the work?

whats a few more billion dollars to tack on the tax payers?

hey, it will then be an emergency and hello no bid contracts!!! fucking payday for the connected!!!

I am a bit confused. Out of the blue Pat Ryan/Shortshanks guarantee city money. Where did this come from? I know the city is run as a dictatorship, but was there a rubber stamp from the city council? Everything seemed to hapen too quickly, or just another example of the pathetic press coverage?

Mayor daley will not seek another election when we get the olympics.

He will be the head of the olympic committee in chitcago.
__________________________________

Close...but here's the slick part. He will sign all the contracts for construction with the connected firms getting all the good ones, and then he'll leave office holding taxpayers on the hook for all the cost overruns to the tune of about 6 billion extra dollars for his friends and family. Remember Grant Park parking garage, the bean, etc there's a couple of billion stolen right before your eyes. Pathetic...and someone should get an injunction; there was no referendum on guaranteeing the payment for the Olympics.

It's function is not to subsidize these sorts of things (certainly not with our money).
It's function is to not only properly fund emergency services, but to actually PROVIDE them..meaning they need to hire more cops. The streets look like Baghdad, and I'm paying a tax on my private dumpster.

I can't wait to move. The day the olympics decision comes down, hopefully I'll be well on my way to selling and getting the hell out of dodge. Daley can kiss my ass; I'm not paying any more for his bullshit.

Just like the meters. Vote yes without.considering any of the ramifications.

Could there possibly be any other big city government that is this fucked up?

SOMEBODY better file suit to fund these pensions before Daley blows it on the Olympics.

Hey media, where is the outrage? Daley wants layoffa and cuts in city services at the expense of funding his beloved Olympics. How do the olympics take precedent over the well being of the citizens of Chicago?

Daley did not lie. The King just changed his mind. Chicago does not have a democratic government. It is a monarchy. It started with Old Man Daley. Young Prince Richard was not ready to take the reigns when his father died. There were a few fillers in power until the young king was ready.

The King does not have to consult with anyone when he makes decisions. If subjects of the monarch do not like his decisions, Daley will lower the drawbridge after the proper toll has been paid.

The Cook County Board is another monarchy, handed down to the next generation.

The King makes the rules, but does not have to follow them.

By the way, did Daley ever complete the online Ethics Training?

I called my alderman and the Sun-Times and told them what's the use of having a city council when one corruput or incompetent nut case of a mayor can put a city that is hundreds of millions of dollars in the red on the hook for a non-necessity like a Olympics costing billions and not likely to be profitable and even if it was Daleys city management does not warrant what is equivalent to putting a pedofile in charge of a daycare center.

I told the Sun-Times to call on the council to insist the mayor see a doctor to have is head examined.

I can dream. We are so fucked. Obama and Daley. mother of g-d.

On the heels of yesterday's $4.8 Billion Olympic commitment, and the revelation that $450M of the $500M guarantee will come from the Mayor's secret "rainy day fund," I cannot believe that the Supt would have the face-slapping gall to send out this Pax 501 stating:

"Our nation is in its deepest recession in more than 50 years, which is having a significant impact on the City’s finances. This ongoing recession has forced the City of Chicago to engage in unprecedented belt-tightening over the past several years; the current layoffs are driven by the poor economic conditions we are experiencing."

Do they think that we are illiterate? That we cannot and do not read the paper? That we are completely blind and oblivious to the blatant theft and financial mismanagement at every level of this City?

He might as well have sent out a PAX 501 that said "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."

fyi

the bridges for the redline, metra and lake shore drive are in such bad shape i predict a collapse of one of the bridges or overpasses in the very near future.

how can we take on the olympics when the city's infrustructure is literally crumbling.

**********

You make a good point there, and that's a good question to ask. Even better is this: Those roads and bridges were built with taxpayers' money LONG ago. We're still paying taxes, supposedly for road maintenance, among other things. That work never got done. So where the fuck's the money?

If I was a contractor who built your house, and you paid me a retainer every year for maintenance, then 5 years down the line you found out all your light bulbs are burned out, your yard looks like a forest, and your toilets were overflowing..what would you say if I told you that you owed me a special assessment in order to fix it all? You'd tell me to fuck my mother, that's what, because you've already been paying me!

WHERE'S THE FUCKING ACCOUNTABILITY?!

Jesus Christ almighty what in the fuck is wrong with people that keep voting in the Machine?!

If the Dept of Buildings is going to be privatized by July 2009, what is Daley going to do with the electrical and plumbing inspectors that paid to play and are making over a 100 grand a year? I know exactly how many of them there are. Ridiculous. This is gonna be a hoot!

The citizens of Chicago should demand that Ald Burke relinquish that tribe of able-bodied police officers guarding him round the clock as though he were the pope. The fleet of unmarked police cars at his disposal, are desperately needed by the patrol division to PATROL. Almost all the alderman are taking at least one or two police officers from every ward in the city. and a car.

You're going to start seeing the names of big city and political bosses and their side business (and I don't mean work) on blogs real soon. Lots of people are very angry about these layoffs.

Agreed! Why? why 2 men at all times? what about 1 driver themn eddie could sit in the front and open his own car doors! D-3 pay, plus 2 on 3 off schedule,and overtime! Plus he has a $350,000 24/7 watch pod camera watching only his home,+ the zoned parking in front of his residence only on his side a special zone, + the frequent cpd checks on his residence! But he is silent when it comes to cpd contract issues,and when cpd needs an mri his finance morons deny it,until a hearing and fop gets involved! Pro-police not! eddie your old retire already!

834 is not a loss cause. We just don't have enough cars in 008 to patrol it properly. That goes for the rest of the districts too. If you live there and are CPD patrol it. It's the only hope.

I liked the way Daley said "only" 500 million.

Hah.

6/18/2009 05:15:00 PM


Jeez, if it is "only" 500 million, then Daley should just empty out his coin jug and cough up the measly $200 million he claims he needs to balance the budget.

Just wait for the stuttering prick to howl when an arbitrator gives us a raise. Whoooeeee!

Then, that hot potato will be tossed in the lap of the City Council. The City Council has to vote for approval of any arbitrator's decision.

An arbitrator's decision is binding on the FOP but not the City, it still must be voted on.
