Revolution?
And this is an excerpt from The Reader about why Daley continues to win elections:
"I never thought I'd see the day when Daley was vulnerable," she concluded. "But he is."
And she's not the only one who sees it.
Despite the myths propagated by his administration—and received as fact by many news outlets, including, most recently, the New Yorker—Daley is not overseeing a smoothly running, contented city. Every day I hear CTA riders bitching about the decline of rapid transit, which Daley appointees have overseen for the last two decades. At community policing meetings people talk about daily gunfire down the block from their homes; cops, meanwhile, quietly rage about how the police department has cut hundreds of officers from its ranks in the last couple years. Aldermen have been fretting aloud about the vacant homes and empty storefronts pockmarking their neighborhoods, and they say they're inundated with calls from constituents wanting to know why the city isn't doing more to get rid of squatters and drug dealers. Then there are all the complaints about potholes, poorly maintained parks, and struggling schools. Community activists wonder why the city has doled out hundreds of millions of dollars in corporate subsidies when it can't find the money to maintain basic city services. And scores of people around town are, like my fellow diners, irked that the city sold its street parking system to an investment bank.

if he runs again on 2011 he will probably still win but it will be no cakewalk--- personally, i doubt if he runs again due to his age and his wife's health problems....
This is a dam shame.

Not to change the topic but could someone explain to me why the police helicopter was hovering over Beverly all fucking morning on St. Pats Day? Talk about a total fucking waste of money. I listened to that fucking thing for hours on end and what did it accomplish? NOTHING!!!! What asshole whiteshirt or politician ordered that helicopter to fly around all morning long. What a bunch of fucking losers. This department is rapidly sliding down the shit tubes!
About the only thing that DIDN'T have to be photoshopped was the greasy, unwashed coif. Shortshanks has that covered.
Me and my family are voting against Daley no matter who is running.
Bridgeport guy voting to help save our city.
"I ain't too proud to beg, but I am too black to keep coming here and kissing your behind.
Daley didn't respond. In fact, he looked bored"
Easily the best , and most telling quote in the article. This arrogant piece of shit thinks he's got the minority vote wrapped up.
Mayor, let me let you in on a little secret. You're in big political trouble , boy.
I listened to WLS radio today. Your Sun Times lackey cheerleading reporter Fran Spielman talked about the lack of blacks you have in your cabinet. The few that remain are under seige; they have legal or political problems or a combo of the two. Michael Scott's death still raises a lot of unanswered questions. Weis , Masters and company have wacked black exempts numbers to an unprecedented low, and have bleached the upper echelon-filling it with unqualified political hacks. You've permanently alienated the hispanic community with the Lopez debacle.
I'm saying all of this to tell you , Daley, you stupid arrogant buffoon, is that despite all of the support of your sell out black reverneds and political flunkies, you won't be getting the unanimous support of the black , or hispanic community in the next election. I
kept a laundry list of how you treat the minorities and I'm going to disseminate it widely and aggressively during the election.
You can toss in spoilers if you want, you know, some black flunky to split the vote and assure your re election. But those who play that game is gonna be targeted for political retaliation and defeat.
Hoffman, if he runs, is going to hand you your lunch, and I'm going to be there to watch you choke on it. Enjoy the last ten months of your fiefdom.
Hoffman, or Anyone but Daley, 2011
I love the picture. Too bad it's not hanging in City Hall.
It's good to see some media tell it like it is.
DUMP DALEY!!!
Smug, arrogant POS, his time is coming and all Chicagoans can't wait.
I sure wish Hoffman would run for Mayor, he would have a great chance. I have never seen so many former Daley voters pissed off and sick of him. Daley has been in power for so long that he has a dictator-like government. The scams, lies, backroom theft I mean deals, and corruption have gone on for too long. God help us, we really need this guys and his band of snakes to go. By the way isn't his #1 body guard the son of a former mob boss?
THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES.
Cart the Stuttering Prick off to the guillotine.
Out of the ten people who the Reader mentions as possible Daley opponents I think only Dart or Houlihan could beat him.
http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/ten-chicago-politicians-to-watch-for-mayor/Content?oid=1514657
I think only Houlihan will likely run. Call it 50/50/. Dart is too much of a machine guy at heart to challenge the King. Plus there might be a hooker giving a handjob somewhere and Tommy would want to stop it.
No way would Jesse Jr. want his wife as mayor. She would overshadow the little guy and he is all about ego.
The others are teeny wittle characters. Reverend Meeks.......sheeet.
Than guy is right wing on social issues. Virulently anti gay and anti abortion. Not going to fly in Chicago. This isn't Utah and I don't know any Osmonds.
Waguspeck seems like a decent enough guy, but he has less charisma than JFed and may actually be uglier.
Reilly. If he were any lighter in his loafers he'd be a Cubs fan. Wait, he is a Cubs fan.
Fioretti. Doesn't have the cojones. He backed down to the Mayor on most issues.
No ladies and gents this is Chicago, the Gods will not save us.
I think we need a well educated, articulate, highly decorated cop and military veteran to take on Daley.
Preferably in their 40-50's.
Male, nice family, and enough time on the job that he can qualify for a pension. Because with the take no prisoners campaign I would envision, he isn't going back to the department if he loses.
Anyone game?
Paul Vallas for mayor. Everybody is on the Hoffman bandwagon, but remember he is an ultra liberal. His views are very different than most police officers and citizens of the Northwest side and southwest side.
And We make fun of France! Liberta Egalite and Fraternita or da words to dat affect. Dump Daley
This would make a great t-shirt or bumper sticker. Dump Daley 2011
SOMEONE PUT THIS ON A FLYER AND START POSTING IT AROUND THE CITY!!!
Why is it that a certain alderperson from the 34th ward DT thinks its ok to let her grandson who has a suspended dl to drive around roseland on her caddy blasting sounds and drawing attention to himself. Its nice to see that she is exempt from city stickers too since she had a lost/sten one affixed to her windshield. How much you want she doesn't have to pay all the impound and tow fees. Glad to see someone did their job and impounded this car. Hate to see this kid kill someone and the city have to pay more cash since his alderwoman grandma knowingly lets his suspended ass drive her caddy.
Talk, talk, talk. Nothing will change until HE wants it to happen.
Sigh! Reality sux.
OT-Listen to this excempt hogwash...
"As a Captain that looks out for his troops in Area 2, I take exception with the above comment. ALL white shirts are not the same, on a daily basis I look out for the health and welfare of the troops and let them know I appreciate the job they do. I also hit the streets with them as much as I can, if it was up to me I'd be out there with you guys for the whole tour." blah blah..
Now the truth...there ain't one legit capt or excempt in this whole dept!
I will tell you why,
-if any of you asshats ever served in the military you would know that;
1. no officer eats or sleeps until his soldiers do.
2. Officers make their camps last.
3. Officers get paid after their troops do.
4. Officers drive what their troops drive.
5. Officers have done and have demonstrated proficiency at any task that they expect their soldiers to do.
6. Officers never fraternize with the troops, much less try to fuck every female soldier in their command.
7. Military officers always credit their troops and never hold news conferences to pat themselves on the back.
8. A military officer never tells a troop off in public, he will defer to the soldier's chain of command.
9. The military promotes people "who have been there and done that." CPD promotes clout heavy trash who "have never been there and never done shit.
10. So shut up skipper.
The CPD is ass backwards. Exempts expect every little perk and never take the blame for anything. Always stocking their harems/front offices with the chosen women.Micro managing, back biting and self-lauding is the order of the day in the CPD. Espesially with this latest goof J-Jag, Troops mean absolutely nothing to the bosses who always take care of themselves first. From the top down to sgt.
Now tell everyone you know or at every call, not to vote for Daley.
That is all,recover.
Alderman Scott Waguespack, the new guy from the 32nd Ward, is much more low-key than his rookie colleagues. But his name is out there because he's shown more independent leadership on key city issues than just about anybody we've got
*******************
From the Reader, the only paper worth reading in this town. Hey Reader - did you ever think you'd hear that from a copper?
I'd like to hear more about this guy. Dart's got too many ties to the 19th Ward and Hoffman is a little left.
The big thing is to decide on one candidate and go with him/her. Get rid of Daley and Weis goes with him. That is what it will cost the candidate for our support.
"Whoever does run (against Daley) has to be braced for the fact that they're going to be fucked with," an alderman told me.
____________________________
Holy shit, Batman! Can they actually say that in print ?
Anybody but Daley!
And if the next mayor is a kleptomaniac clown like Daley, well then, at least it's a new face fucking us.
Madigan. Burke and Stone also got to go. He'll, ALL of them need to go.

You're kidding, right? Vallas is a Daley hack from way back, who owes Daley for his rise in the world. Daley made this guy his CPS CEO guy after he took over the schools system like a dictator.
From Wikipedia:
"The position of CEO of the CPS was created by Mayor Richard M. Daley after he successfully convinced the Illinois State Legislature to place CPS under mayoral control. Vallas had previously directed the budget arm of the Illinois State Legislature and served as budget director for Daley".
Vallas dropped out of the race for Pres of the Cook County Board when the Mayor told him to, so don't expect him to come back here and save the city by running against Daley.
IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN !
Some of you need to stop being so picky and be willing to vote for anyone who is left standing against him...but, that is if you really want him gone. But, you can keep expressing your love by wanting someone who is perfect.
For me: my hate is true. I will vote for anyone who is not named Daley or Beavers or Stroger.
That pic is priceless, put it on a t-shirt and sell it at "waste of Chicago" and Sox games and you'd make a mint!

WHAT IS A DAMN SHAME? SHE WAS ON THE JOB FOR 11 YEARS AND ONLY MARRIED TO HIM FOR 12 DAYS. DO YOU THINK OUR PENSION IS A BOTTOMLESS PIT OF MONEY? THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS COURT'S DECISION; THANK GOD YOU ARE NOT IN CHARGE OF OUR MONEY.
UNLESS YOU MEANT THAT IT IS A SHAME THAT THIS GUY EVEN TRIED TO GET THE PENSION, THEN DISREGARD MY POST.
As the article states, Daley manages to keep the mayor's job
because he runs against " low quality, uninspiring opponents ".
In addition to the fact that a
"stalking horse" always enters the
race to sorta "spread" the votes on
the West and Southsides.
He also increased the number of
petition signatures required to
get on the ballot to mount a
campaign against him. In spite of
how he treats them, Chicagoans must
love their "Daley" bread because he
always gets his way and returned to
office. And like the Teflon Don
no dirt seems to stick to him.

That's a load of crap. The Office of the Mayor needs to keep the city running. In the first term AD (after Daley) the greatest NEED will be to disengage the Outfit from their stranglehold on this city.
Andy Shaw, former TV reporter and now head of the Better Govt Association said recently that as much as 40% of the tax money in Chicago, Cook County and Illinois is eaten up by corruption in the form of waste, inflated political insider contracts, corporate tax breaks and subsidies and friend and family city consultantcies etc.
The new Mayor will need to identify and eliminate the Outfit's "guys" from key city jobs, contracts, committees and other positions of political influence in and around Chicago. Hoffman already has a road map to most of these clowns.
As far as liberal views, the Mayor does not set social or domestic policy or agendas like they do in DC. Besides, they will be so busy trying to root out the corruption, that I don't see much else going on in a liberal sense.
Most of the embarrassing for the Mayor stuff going on right now with the Office of the Inspector General regarding patronage hiring and the recommended suspension of Daley's hand picked executive director of the mayor's Office of Compliance, is stuff begun when Hoffman held the IG position before his US Senate bid. Hoffman knows where many of the "bodies are buried", but as the IG, he was not given the authority to dig for them.
I'd say this is the PERFECT time to unseat Daley and Hoffman is the PERFECT candidate to do it, if he has it in him to run again so soon after the failed campaign for the U S Senate.
From the Reader:
"Hoffman's got some of his own money, but he just spent $1 million of it in the primary. He's got a record of fighting for good government, but lots of aldermen and Democratic insiders write him off as a self-promoting pipsqueak. He's smart and credible, but not always stirring. He might have to be drafted, but if he got into the race, Hoffman could make it very, very interesting".
I think we need a well educated, articulate, highly decorated cop and military veteran to take on Daley.
I just hope that everyone realizes that if Daley DOES decide to run and gets beat, whoever takes over has one big mess to clean up.
Remember, it took ShortShanks over 20 years to get the city to this point. Don't expect the next guy to clean it up in 4 years.

SCC, I have a question for you. How do you ensure that when I post something here even under "anonymous" that my identity/isp address won't be disclosed? I want to post important information.
3/14/2010 12:08:00 PM
you are smart enough to get important information, but, not smart enough to post at a Kinko's, library, etc....?
More from the Reader:
"If we're talking about city services—collecting garbage, clearing snow—they were delivered every bit as well under Byrne, Washington, and Sawyer as they are today. As for the hard stuff, like creating high-paying jobs, eradicating poverty, making sure poor kids do as well in school as rich ones—on those matters Daley's as clueless as every other mayor".
"Mussolini's defenders used to say that at least he made the trains run on time. But Mayor Daley . . . oh, don't even get me started on public transportation".

I love the picture. Too bad it's not hanging in City Hall.
It's good to see some media tell it like it is.
3/15/2010 02:47:00 AM
I agree. I wish he was hanging in City Hall, too.
Perhaps the helicopter was hovering over Beverly all morning due to those evil partyers who invade the community. Will the copter do the same over Washington Park this summer for their fests, where there have bee bonified murders and gang-shootings, Agg. Batteries, rapes, rampant drugs, etc??? O.O.C. [out of control] city, wasting Taxpayers money, as usual.
see GOOOH.com and sign up!
If a quality opponent shows up and the media pressurews Daley into debates, then I think Daley can be defeated. Daley has refused to debate anyone in the last three elections. He should be pressured to do so.
myself and my family will vote for Charles Manson before we will vote for Daley again.
Mauer for Mayor!!!
As I see it, daley is only leaving by one of two ways, jail or stretcher.

It was looking for DOPW....& found 0!!!!
but tact got 1!!!!! Good job!!!!!
There will be too many alternate and shill candidates for a challenger to win the mayoral election outright. A challenger's (Hoffman) only hope would be to force a runoff election if no candidate got 50%.
Then it would be a horse race. I would love to see it but however weak and unpopular daley is, he still knows how to fight dirty and Hoffman doesn't have a clue about that.
Only winning matters and Hoffman fights fair. Daley will win eventually and we will continue to get fucked.
Remember to buy vaseline.
Under Daley, Chicago is well on it's way to becoming the next Detroit....
no question that Daley needs to go, but....who replaces him? There's little sense in replacing one clown with another...

Oh, and daley's views are in line with what, Rudy "the chin" Fratto? The ultra outfit political school of mayor.
I'll take an honest so called liberal over a crooked cock sucker member of the daley family any day.
Remember, liberal politically or not, Hoffman has been a Federal prosecutor for years. He knows how badly public corruption of the daley variety has damaged this city.
It's a public corruption crime wave for christ sake! We are not talking about electing Nancy Polosi mayor, but a former Federal prosecutor, still infinitely more desirable than anyone named or related to a daley.
Cooter for mayor!
my vote goes to SHAVED!

Vallas? He's like the mario cuomo of chicago - he flirts with running for this or that, leaks stuff, then backs down.
What about mike quigley? popular with lakefront libs, represents blue-collar northwest siders, irish, tough guy, was independent n the county board...

The CEO of CTA is none other than former superintendant Rodriquez's kid. Any wonder?
Vallas would be a good choice for mayor. Probably the best we could hope for in Shitcago. Hoffman is a joke, he did nothing to the mayor. Wow he said the parking meter deal was bad, what a rebel.
SCC - Com'on, its nothing compared to this cover from the Reader:
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_IMGjq3rRTeg/Shqoo-Tt42I/AAAAAAAABSk/Gdb0uxcO0gE/s400/One_Billion_Dollar_Daley_Chicago_Reader.jpg
Without a doubt, the funniest cover the CR has ever put out.
In all fairness, just remember Byrne, Balandic, Orr and Washington... Who really could do it better than Daley? Pat Fitzgerald, Hoffman, Quigley, Prekwinlke, Obama....
Folks I'm here to warn you, Daley loses, it will be to Jesse Jr. and then you watch out.....
"If you know both yourself and your enemy, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss." Sun Tzu
This photoshop on Daley is good, very good. It captures and conveys his arrogance (and ignorance) well.
But I still say the absolute photoshop job ever was the person that pasted Rosie O'Donnell on Kahlid Mohammed.
Scary...because it looks like it blended so well with little work.
Helicopters suck, but they look so cool. What a waste of money.... Officer down, needs assistance, response time..... 2 fning hours best. WASTE OF MONEY
I like Paul Vallas, but would he run? I think he is great, but would he run? Anyone got his number?
Hillard is the national spokesperson for Taser, 5 million contract. He also just got the contract to clean up McPier and suggest changes. Pays to be connected. Don't forget, he would not let the Personnel Division certify retired officers so they could get retired concealed carry and refused to let us use the ranges, even at our own expense. It took a change in state law sponsered by Milner, a retired Elmherst chief to help us the the pension board to certify us a retired. I have no respect for Hilliard.A hypocrite
3/14/2010 07:24:00 PM
Don't forget the sharks in our own ranks. Anybody name any of the former bosses working for Hillard in his security firm.
I believe Chasen is one. Here's some easy dough. Keep quiet about what you know.
There is already a guy that fits the profile running for Cook County office.
1)well educated
2)articulate
3)highly decorated cop and military veteran
4)Preferably in their 40-50's.
5) Male
6) nice family
His name is Brock Merck and he is running against the combine on the Northwest side.
There may be only 5 guys that meet the profile bar you set because I would add that the military veteran would have to have been awarded a Bronze Star or Purple Heart to differentiate even further.

The thing that's really taken a turn for the worse lately is the way this administration collects revenue. It barely even pretends to be about enforcing laws. It's turned into a blatant "gotcha" game, trying to squeeze money even from those who did nothing wrong. They're broke, well, tough, they shouldn't have wasted so much money over the years, not our fault! City Hall is just a big pirate ship now, and everybody knows it. When doing your damndest to play by the rules isn't good enough...we get MAD.
I know of a lot of people that will NOT vote for this Bozo!
The circus is over!
I heard Tom Dart might give it a shot at the mayor"s spot...

No pool cars, available in Area 3 so I drove around the District and NOT making any traffic stops let alone writing any tickets!!
Oh WELL! At least be safe and go home to your families!
Fuck this city!
Shit cars = Shit service!!
He wins again. He finds votes all over the city, not from people who read the Reader or who visit this blog. We are the minority. The votes are found in neighborhoods that you never visit. In old age homes, institutions, skid roiw flop houses, churches that you never hear about. They are out there and the Daley people know where to find them. He will win again by another landslide. You will not vote for him, none of your friends will vote for him, and you will wonder why your candidate lost. He is not a loser.This is his game. He will be the mayor and Obama will get a health care program. Some how some way, they get it. We don't.
The Daley administration is conducting an internal investigation to determine why a technology consulting firm that employs a former city budget director got a $26 million contract expansion from the Health Department without competitive bidding or sign-off from the Sole Source Advisory Board.
The revolution begins!
Off topic but why are we not hearing more about all of the burglaries and break-ins up in 016? I just heard they broke into a house north of Touhy while people were sleeping ! This City is up for grabs.
You get the democracy you deserve, year after year this stuttering fool gets elected. Everybody's got their hand out, it gets more and more corrupt. He'll continue to wreck the city & the state until you fucknuts vote ALL of them out. Until then enjoy the shit hole you made.
Very appropriate picture...
It captures the true spirit and essence of the stuttering prick!
Since this buffoon always paints a picture of himself as a dedicated father/family man and public servant, we offer this rebuttal...
He's fucked over many a dedicated father and family men with no pay raises in the face of increased taxes, fees and cost of living. This resulted in a loss of income tantamount to the pay cut he wants us to take in the first place.
We would hazard that over the last three years, the typical Policeman has seen an earnings decline something to the tune of 30%
OH BOY!
We can't wait for the shit-talkers to rev themselves up into a frenzy when/if our contract is approved and we get raises and retro. Of course shit-shorts and the alderfools are going to raises taxes, fees & fines through the roof and blame the Police for "being greedy" and that these hard economic times are all our fault.
...Fuck every last one of you.
Policemen don't vote on and approve budgets or financial policy. The mayor and alderfools do.
Policemen don't approve sweet-heart deals, the mayor and alderfools do.
Policemen don't approve clouted construction projects that are never on time, always over budget and with built in cost overruns, the mayor and the alderfools do.
The only thing Policemen are truly guilty of is reacting to being pissed on and starving the city near to death with greatly diminished ticket writing and other revenue generation.
42 extra-short says "how dare you stop collecting MY MONEY!"
His reaction was to hire all the assorted bust outs & rejects you see crawling all over the city in a desperate attempt to keep the revenue train running.
Any REAL family man worth his salt would say "You know what? I really don't blame these guys for reacting the way they did because I was pissing on them. I would've done the same thing in their position... Let's do right by them and make them whole so we can try to fix this."
NOT!
Typical of the one way, shit-hole dictator who has it all and doesn't want to share...
Shorty has been pampered and cared for all his life. He has no idea what a real adult care or concern is.
"Fuck you, pay me!"
We hope Arbitrator Benn saw short-shanks for the bully and coward he is...
Shorty is full of shit... Plenty of money out there and he can balance the city budget with a phone call... Greedy, selfish, three-card monte TIF fund having muthafuckah!
Fuck the shit-talkers too... Coward-asses wanted to have nothing to do with being the Police when they were flush and had fat 401K's when times were good but now that things are tough they have LOTS of opinions about our quest to be fairly compensated and talk plenty shit about "fat pensions & early retirement, fire 'em all & we'll work for half with no pension or health care."
Clueless, uninformed and classless to advocate taking something out of someone else's mouth that they earned just because you're pissed. Get over it! Admit you didn't have the nerve to stand in our line to do what we do and move on with your lives.
42 extra-short has tried like a muthafuckah to infect EVERYONE with this feverish, short sighted anti-Police thinking.
The art and science of political fuckery demonstrated on a daily basis!
Only in Chicago can such a thing breed and thrive.
Fill your damn census out!
the fact is local,state and national pols are in big trouble! you have 1 group demanding more social programs and expanded government vs. 1 group demanding less government/taxes and programs.both groups are pissed off! cut taxes or cut off the freeriders? our ''great mayor'' may decide to walk away.
his cheeks are so rosy. wonder who did his makeup.
P.S.
REGISTER TO VOTE!
REMEMBER HAYMAKER-GATE! may those responsible for the subesquent cover-up be held criminally liable in addition to being personally sued into utter and abject poverty with no indemnification from the city whatsoever! Hell, it's a good enough fate for a blue-shirt so let the exempts and the clouted have a taste too! Satan stokes a special white-hot fire for the co-conspirators!
REMEMBER COZZI! He was a convenient sacrifice for weis-hole!
Never, never ever trust a fed! Any copper on a joint fed task force is expendable! It's by design, you're fodder and a buffer for when shit goes sour!
Fuck 'em! The play time, sweet rides and perks are a smoke screen. They're the so called "experts." They don't need local law enforcement since they have ALL the answers anyway.
Coppers consorting/cavorting with feebs in these times need their heads examined!
God Bless CPD!
VOTE IN 2011 DAMN IT!
Daley evades the defense atty's subpeonas in federal court. WTF?
By the way isn't his #1 body guard the son of a former mob boss?

Nice picture of Bent A Dick Arnold!
Seiser should run it
You should have seen him cut off his alderman pick, Moreno. Daley answered for the guy saying that he will represent his constituents, and not Daley. Aldermen, what a bunch of Daley puppets.
Me and my family are voting against Daley no matter who is running.
Bridgeport guy voting to help save our city

It's or He's
SCC, Shaved,Phantom Chevy,etc... we need to start a campaign to vote out Daley,Madigan,and Burke!!! We need to start this by circulating fliers, remember these pricks think they own their positions that they dont even participate in debates. I will be a foot soldier and pass out fliers or walk in protest marches. We need to take over this city, county, and state from these career no good politicians!
"you are smart enough to get important information, but, not smart enough to post at a Kinko's, library, etc....?

Off topic but why are we not hearing more about all of the burglaries and break-ins up in 016? I just heard they broke into a house north of Touhy while people were sleeping ! This City is up for grabs.
3/15/2010 03:14:00 PM
burglaries and break-ins?
Everybody whines about Daley, THEN BITCHES LOUDER about who can or will unseat him.
Everyone needs to coalesce around one candidate , vote him/her in and get Daley out,
Daley is not unstoppable or unbeatable.
Stop making excuses or disparaging Daley opponents-try voting for and supporting them.
Jeez.
Hoffman is no liberal.
Did you know he was a law clerk for Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rhenquist? Believe me, if his views were to the left he would have never held such a position.
Hoffmann is a conservative in a Democratic town.
"The CEO of CTA is none other than former superintendant Rodriquez's kid. Any wonder?

And I heard a news story a little while back, and they referred to Judge LeRoy Martin, Jr.
Any relation to that brainiac?

Why is it that a certain alderperson from the 34th ward DT thinks its ok to let her grandson who has a suspended dl to drive around roseland on her caddy blasting sounds and drawing attention to himself. Its nice to see that she is exempt from city stickers too since she had a lost/sten one affixed to her windshield. How much you want she doesn't have to pay all the impound and tow fees. Glad to see someone did their job and impounded this car. Hate to see this kid kill someone and the city have to pay more cash since his alderwoman grandma knowingly lets his suspended ass drive her caddy.

*******************
Carrie Austin is bordering on Official Misconduct, using her office to influence the direction of police investigations. She was pissed at having to pay impound fees for her grandson's suspended license while driving her car, and took it out on the police all day today.
Didn't a north side alderman nearly catch a lot of legal trouble last year for bitching and moaning about getting ticketed for talking on the cellphone, and ordered the then commander of 23 to bring him his license with I bond? (might have been 2 years ago??) That's not even as bad. Everyone knows her grandson in Area 2 and the fact he has a suspended license because Carrie always raises hell whenever he gets pulled over. She either plays the race card against officers or calls African American officers "Uncle Tom's" if they "have the nerve" to write him.
Unfortunately the best part of the picture was left out he was wearing a corset with pantyhose!
Hey Daley , guess which city was ranked in Forbes top 14 of nationwide distressed real estate markets?
Thanks again for your leadership...Dick.
Helicopter two hours to respond biggest waste of money ever for CPD
Another small mishap that shows what a F'up are dept is. 025 tact early start on 15 Mar for a big gang funeral for a POS gang member. Given a location of 5802 w Division. What's there?? Nothing. The funeral turns out to be down in 007. Great intel. If they can't even get this right hate to see if they receive some real important info. Idiots
The new Mayor will need to identify and eliminate the Outfit's "guys" from key city jobs, contracts, committees and other positions of political influence in and around Chicago.
Thats funny!
TO: Not to change the topic but could someone explain to me why the police helicopter was hovering over Beverly all fucking morning on St. Pats Day? Talk about a total fucking waste of money. I listened to that fucking thing for hours on end and what did it accomplish?
Quit your bitching....At Least we are getting some Police service

And ONCE AGAIN the Tact Lt JS got caught holding information on a burglary crew that did a coppers house. The beat car ran the plate 6922 le on a crown vic black with tinted windows when JS gets on the air and says "wheres that car?" but wouldnt say why he wanted it until the dispatcher pulled it out of him.
Its this kind of holding information that he has been doing for YEARS. Its going to get someone hurt.
the king is sweating, because he still has to pay the mob.

I listened to that fucking thing for hours on end and what did it accomplish? NOTHING!!!! What asshole whiteshirt or politician ordered that helicopter to fly around all morning long. What a bunch of fucking losers. This department is rapidly sliding down the shit tubes!
STFU asshole. The helicopter was up there as an enforcement tool. Speaking of tools, which you are, you would probably be the first one crying about not enough enforcement if that thing had gone to shit. Go back to your cubicle and leave the important decisions up to people with brains. You are a jagoff.
What about mike quigley? popular with lakefront libs, represents blue-collar northwest siders, irish,...
Right, because you haven't gotten enough of THAT bullshit in the past 20 years.
"STFU asshole. The helicopter was up there as an enforcement tool"
Enforcement Tools is that just a fancy name for MSF,TRU,TACT,GANGS& Any Other Unit that does the Departments bidding w/ no questions asked?
Good thing Air 1 was in the sky over Beverly to keep an eye on the 30 or so bar patrons walking down Western Ave Sunday,What a Joke
"I like Paul Vallas, but would he run? I think he is great, but would he run? Anyone got his number?
3/15/2010 12:50:00 PM"
Yes, I'll see if he has completed his promise to the New Orleans school system. I think he signed on for a year or so with them which would make his chances here slim.
I just shredded my census....let the revolution begin.
not to rag on the helicopter, but.."an enforcement tool?"...Enforcement for what, exactly? Factoring in costs for personnel, equipment, fuel, maintenance...what exactly does it enforce, and at what cost (line item figures, please)...

While you're at it, just shoot yourself in the foot, too. It makes about as much sense.
"Helicopter two hours to respond biggest waste of money ever for CPD"
I think it was purchased with federal funds ear-marked for a helicopter.
Your FEDERAL tax dollar at work.
For years people bitched that we didn't have one, now that we do, we're still bitching.
The fact that the department fails to have one of the two operational 24/7...poor management.
Anybody but Richard M Daley for Mayor.
This CONSERVATIVE will not only VOTE for Hoffman but will actively work his campaign if he runs.
We need to DUMP DALEY!
I pray that a solid African American candidate runs, a solid Hispanic and a solid Cuaucasian thus insuring Richard M Daley's loss.
DUMP DALEY!
I hadn't thought of Quigley running.
That would be interesting.
Vallas lives in Palos Heights.
The deadline has passed for him to move back into the city to run for Mayor.
He is a decent guy. I'd like to see him as Mayor. Alas, we'll likely get another term of Mayor Fredo and his merry band of crooks.
"Hoffman is no liberal.

OK Hoffman campaign aide get off the blog - You seem to know way too much about this guy but conviently leave out his far, far left positions.
We might vote for this guy because he is not Daley - but he is a liberal puke and we don't like being lied to.
Anyone register to vote recently?
"Another small mishap that shows what a F'up are dept is. 025 tact early start on 15 Mar for a big gang funeral for a POS gang member."
The info came from downtown; and it's "our dept" not "are dept".
Vote on Mayor Daley's performance this year!!

Fuck the shit-talkers too...
Coward-asses wanted to have nothing to do with being the Police when they were flush and had fat 401K's when times were good but now that things are tough they have LOTS of opinions about our quest to be fairly compensated and talk plenty shit about "fat pensions & early retirement, fire 'em all & we'll work for half with no pension or health care."
Clueless, uninformed and classless to advocate taking something out of someone else's mouth that they earned just because you're pissed. Get over it! Admit you didn't have the nerve to stand in our line to do what we do and move on with your lives.
3/15/2010 03:36:00 PM
Very well put. I've heard this a lot lately. Everyone makes Life choices. We chose to be the Police. Most who comment in this manner would wet themselves on a Priority 1 call. They CAN'T or WONT do what we do. Everyday.
There has not been a detectives class in what. Two and half years and how many short? Over 200+ short.
My prediction: he will say hello to the 'ol grabber before 2011. He should be in a police facility for this where there are no emergency defibs. We must cut costs at all costs even if Shank's life is as stake.

Did she take the ethics test? Jusk axin.
"As The Reader points out, Daley isn't invincible, he's just running against a very low quality of opponents. That might be coming to an end, but we are far from convinced."
And he will always field a shill to split the opposition. Like last time with Dorthy Brown, who ever heard of What's-His-Name "Doc" Walls and why would Doc stay when he knew he knew would lose.
If a reform candidate like Hoffman goes for it, a second reform candidate will magically appear.
Same with a Hispanic, or Black, or Oritental or Klingon, or....
>>More from the Reader:
"If we're talking about city services—collecting garbage, clearing snow—they were delivered every bit as well under Byrne, Washington, and Sawyer as they are today. >>>
Bullshit!! Remember last winter when Shorty was shooting for the 'Limpics. The snow and ice wasn't picked up because we had to buy Mickey Reese Hospital for a venue!!
Screw Daley, I'd like to see Jimmy Mauer for Mayor and let's rebuild this Department. Hoffman or anyone else might think Jughead might have had a few good ideas.
Thank-You Chicago Reader!
Finally, a news outlet that tells it like it is in Chicago.

So, in your neighborhood there will be so many less, white (I assume) conservative, voting, American citizens.
So many less people that will people that require Congressional representation, allocation of federal revenue programs and so on.
When I fill out my form I am counting my beagle and her three pups. I may even get Social Security numbers for them. Hell, when they're 18 in dog years I'll get Voters Cards for 'em!
I wish they were born before the first of the year, I could have used the tax deductions. I got to remember to sign them up for their LINK cards!
