We Can Only Hope

  • Mayor Daley's decision to blame the media for Oprah Winfrey's career-altering choice to pull the plug on her syndicated talk show after her 25th season is preposterous. But it's also incredibly revealing.

    When the mayor said, "You keep kicking people, and people will leave," he just might have been talking about himself. Daley has been on the warpath about the media in recent months -- to the point of aggressively challenging reporters.

Challenging? Here's a mayor, born into privilege, silver-spoon and all, never had to dirty his shoes walking to school, barely passed, may not have even passed the bar exam without a bit of "help," moved from one political job to another, never on his own achievements but on the backs of others' skills, jumps into the mayor's job because someone died and gets an almost free ride for two decades and then some from the media.

Now he's pissed because some people are finally noticing the emperor has no clothes and hasn't had any for twenty-plus years? Get over yourself Shortshanks. Has anyone seen the Tribune advertisements about how they're "keeping an eye" on the political class? If the Tribune and it's ilk had been keeping an eye on Daley for the past twenty years, we wouldn't be in this cesspool we're currently drowning in.

Any halfway decent politician can sweep into the 5th Floor next election. We only hope Shortshanks is giving serious thought to leaving. Maybe even in handcuffs.

From your blog to God's ears! Cross your fingers and pray the shanks is short in the next election! Uh, I forgot. He is not only short of physical stature, but short of common decency, also. How about we pray he is lacking enough votes in 2011 to keep his criminal enterprise going for an additional 4 years.

Ok, SCC, and its esteemed readers, now the question is: WHO? Kinda simple, but real important, WHO. That’s it: WHO!

WHO for next MAYOR?

WHO for next GOVERNOR?

WHO for next SUPERINTENDENT?


Anyone worth while, that isn’t connected to or related to DALEY and his regime, has been shipped off LONG time ago.

"What bothers him most is the fact that the media gives short shrift to his successes, while the slightest failure is blown up. And there's this cynicism that nobody believes he didn't know when something goes wrong," said a mayoral insider, apparently referring to Daley's claim that he knew nothing about his nephew's risky real estate venture with $68 million worth of city employee pension funds until the Chicago Sun-Times blew the whistle two years ago."

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


His ONLY success that I know of is him living high on the hog, turning his personal "security" detail into butlers, chauffeurs and manservant's and exposing this city to corruption the likes of which is unprecedented in American history!

Maybe the Big "O" is tired of being taxed to death here and treated like, well, actually, not like someone who pumps hundreds of millions of $$$ into the local economy. And it snows here; and daley has a reputation as an ultra corrupt politician.

Maybe she is really tired of daley and his bullshit. She has a firm grasp of how to work media, she is part of the media for christ sake.

daley is finally appearing to be suffering from gin induced dementia. Let's hope he is soon also suffering from abouttogotoprison-entia.

I'll make book Daley doesn't run again.

Not because of a grabber or indictment but because the guy doesn't have the right stuff to effectively run a lemonade stand profitably.

He had decades of wind at his back economically speaking and all he did was piss away and steal billions via inside no bid contracts while raising taxes and running businesses out of town.

Now, it's a really severe economic correction to an economy that was propped up on steroids and Daley's got absolutely no ideas what to do and no city cash reserves to speak of to make for a softer landing.

Guys like him take all the credit when the wind is at there back and they blame everyone else when the wind is at there face. When the going gets tough, guys like him get going in to retirement leaving us holding the bag.

I expect a lot of Aldermen will be retiring soon and not as a result of the ballot box but more a result of filings for pensions before that gravy train becomes insolvent.

Maybe the next Mayor will be a real Mayor who will clean up the mess Daley will leave. The planters, wrought iron fences, and french made bus stops that were built for warm weather climates look real nice but when you scratch the surface, it's obvious Daley's rule has destroyed a once great city.

He's giving us a heads-up that if we don't realize his greatness, he might leave us.

The city was in search of a Mayor when it found this one and it will find another. So I'm thinking, don't let the door hit you on the wayout Mayor if you think you're that indespensable.

You ain't no Oprah that's for sure.

"You leap to the conclusion that any major occurrence is the last straw for him and he's gone. He absolutely feels that the media would like nothing more than for something to happen that would force him to step down or make it impossible for him to run again. He believes you guys are ready for something new -- that you're bored with his success."


****************


TRUE! But not just the media feels that way. I confess that nothing would make ME happier.

But I'm bored with his successes because they are only HIS and not for the citizens of Chicago.

HE lives like he thinks he is special, like a king or something.

HE gets special treatment, free flights, free vacations around the world, free trips with his family to the Olympics, his nephew gets HANDED millions from pension funds to start a new business! Yeah, he's successful alright!

FUCK THAT LITTLE STUTTERING PRICK!

Go retire to Michigan so you can avoid the high taxes here in Chicago that YOU are responsible for. Another of your little successes. Your retirement can't come soon enough for me!

Oh cry me a river! He thinks the media is picking on him? Just what did he expect after 20 years of mismanagement? He's a political figure and fair game in this country. Well maybe in the U.S, not in the Kingdom of Daley.

There is an old saying that goes something like this: LEAD BY EXAMPLE. You can't constantly berate people publicly when they screw up and then feign shock when it happens to you.

Mr. Mayor, do yourself a favor and not run for another term. Sit down and shut up and start acting like an adult, an adult that is responsible for a large metropolitan city. Maybe if you do this you just might eek out a small portion of self respect.

If Chicago reporters proactively and objectively reported the news their ratings would soar. The scandals would bring national and international attention and bolster sales and market numbers to a dying industry.

"Rumor has it that Daley will be indicted by the Feds, [U.S. ATTORNEY-IRS] in early 2010."

Ohh, come on!!!! Wake up and smell something. It ain't happened in 20+ years, it sure as heck ain't gonna happen down that he has his sockpuppet in the White House.

Only thing that is going to stop Shortshanks is the Grim Reaper.

And it won't be soon enough.

Tommy, Tommy, Tommy, can't you just let it go? You were an inferior tact Lt. and the bosses decided to replace you; get over it.

Your sense of entitlement is astonishing; you were replaced because you were doing a bad job.

If not JG, it would have been someone else; but you were history from day one.

But if it makes you feel better to post negative comments here, knock yourself out.

Nice try by attempting to attach yourself to the honorable Sir Donkey. The Donkey would be disgusted by the cowardly likes of yourself. You are truly pathetic.

sincerely,

Yawn.

Do better research next time.

How about Oprah is leaving because she was really embarrassed about the Olympics debacle... Embarrassed to the world, in front of the President et all... Or maybe she witnessed something there in Copenhagen....


Just sayin...

Someone, without a doubt, took that test for him. For years there have been rumors as to who it was. I'd bank on his brother Satan out in Washington. The real president and mastermind of NAFTA.

Oprah did more for Chicago than Chi. ever did for Oprah and if you really believe she made all her money here you are as crazy as shortshanks as masters masters combined. Maybe she's fucking tired and wants to retire and enjoy life. She's done some very good things for coppers all on the QT and never wants recognition for what does in Chicago. I'd move too It's too cold here.

So unless you get a dispatched call you don't take it upon yourself to do any proactive patrol. You need a citizen to spot a suspicous person for you? Why don't you get your lazy ass out of the car do some police work instead of waiting for the radio to tell you to do work. Sounds like you got a patronage job too.

11/22/2009 06:13:00 PM


Sounds like you have it about right. No proactive patrol. None. Radio calls only. Yup, you got it.

Chicago loses out to Dallas for new 2010 trade show

By Lorene Yue
Nov. 25, 2009
(Crain’s) — Chicago has been shut out of a chance to host a new trade show next year after a group that was part of a decade-long event at McCormick Place decided to strike out on its own.

The International Dairy Foods Assn. recently announced that it will meet every year instead of every other year and that its 2010 show will be held in Dallas instead of Chicago’s McCormick Place.

The Washington, D.C.-based association had been holding biennial shows in conjunction with the American Meat Institute. They had jointly hosted the Worldwide Food Expo at McCormick Place since its inception in 1999.

Cost was among the factors in leaving Chicago, said a spokeswoman for the International Dairy Foods Assn., which represents the makers and marketers of milk products.

“Chicago is not inexpensive,” she said.

The convention drew 22,000 attendees to McCormick Place this year.
