G-8 CANCELED!!!
- The G-8 summit will be held at Camp David, not in Chicago as had been scheduled.
The White House announced the change in the following statement:
"In May, the United States looks forward to hosting the G-8 and NATO Summits. To facilitate a free-flowing discussion with our close G-8 partners, the president is inviting his fellow G-8 leaders to Camp David on May 18-19 for the G-8 Summit, which will address a broad range of economic, political and security issues.
"The president will then welcome NATO allies and partners to his hometown of Chicago for the NATO Summit on May 20-21, which will be the premier opportunity this year for the president to continue his efforts to strengthen NATO in order to ensure that the Atlantic Alliance remains the most successful alliance in history, while charting the way forward in Afghanistan."
The 38th G8 summit was to be held in Chicago alongside the NATO summit, and was expected to draw thousands of demonstrators.
Police officials estimated that 2,000 to 10,000 demonstrators were expected to show up for the overlapping G-8 and NATO summits. At least two major demonstrations were already planned for downtown during the summit, and organizers said they wanted to send crowds of marchers down Michigan Avenue in the middle of the day.
More details as they become available. But what a tremendous embarrassment to Rahm and McCarthy that the White House has zero confidence in their ability to host a major undertaking. The years of neglect and outright criminal dismantling of the Chicago Police Department have come home to roost.

can i get a fucking event #?
I told you! I mean....I though of it first!
How embarrassing.
Great. I just bought my turtle gear.
It was a terrible idea and we will still remember it at election time Mr. Mayor.
Civilian post: Hey Andy Thayer, suck it. Haha.
Hahahaha!!!!!! Does that mean I get to switch my furlough back to 5b?
Haaaaa Haaaa LMAO The Flaming TUTU has got to be tossing a turd. I wonder what scandle Obama is avoiding. This should be a fuckin riot to watch! TwinkleToes Rahm must be nawing off another finger over this.
It never was gonna be here. This was planned from the start to divide and disrupt the protestors.
Two questions will NATO still draw protests and can I now get my 5 b furlough I wanted so I can go to dc?
I'm poppin champagne. Salud Racoon eyes and G mac. This city is a joke!
Thank you baby Jesus!!! Rahm can kiss my hairy yellow butt for wanting this. How many policeman would have been hurt because lack of numbers,equipment and the "awesome" training? St. Jude has smiled at the blue shirts!
We haven't been trained another '68 type CPD beat down would have been embarrassing in an election year. The whole damn top structure of the CPD should be replaced. At least I picked up a free gas mask. Sure would have liked to get that big O/T check though.
Best
News
Ever....
Thank god someone used their head! Now move NATO somewhere!
Since the protestors won't get to be anywhere near Camp David, and NATO will still be held here, I would assume that the protestors will still come to Chicago. Why cancel a good time. Plans have already been made, tickets purchased, NATO will still be here, and protestors will have plenty of time to make sure that they are heard. Now, with G8 moving, Barry won't have to pony up for any protection money for G8. Way to go. We all know that Chicago is just rolling in extra cash.
And we were going to have the Olympics here too??? LMAO!!!!!!!!
Rham = massive FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We really do work for a bunch of idiots. Now what happens to the furlough picks?
I'm sure manpower had no role in the cancelation... Hint hint
As a police officer, I am also a tax payer. I want to know who is covering all the costs incurred so far. Also, I hope the media picks up on this bullshit excuse. Free flow of information and ideas? We were over matched. It has been discussed all along on this blog, and they finally woke up and realized it. They kept saying 2000 to 10000 protesters, another lie. Everyone who knows anything about this or has done any research knows 25,000 protesters is a conservative estimate, with 50 to 100 thousand not out of the question.
Still have to worry about NATO, pal.
Aldo Raine
Rahm is a world class idiot. The secret service and the world realized that he is a liar and would do anything and fuck anybody to further his political goals and to showcase...himself as a psuedo self appointed world leader. I told you he thinks he is the mayor of the world. What a little shit.
What do you mean we're not getting any Federal money to steal? DOH ! I spent it already ! Signed, Mr Mayor
The powers that be, finally realized that Chicago is not equipped for this sort of demonstration. A police department that is not properly trained or equipped to deal with protesters. How on earth are they expected to deal with a terrorist attack? Or anything significant for that matter. SCC, for just being a peon site somebody sure was listening.
Haha. All those idiots that booked flights and rooms. Andy thayer getting one of the first permits. Hopefully for a cancelled date.
there's a PO in DC with DoD
Haha. All those idiots that booked flights and rooms. Andy thayer getting one of the first permits. Hopefully for a cancelled date.
Rahm's Press Secretary Fran Spielman and the Slum Times already putting out the spin...Its the Aldermen's fault.
Good riddance! Even with unlimited overtime for the entire month of may could you of convinced me hosting the g8 was a good idea.
What a joke. We look good Rahm.
Can we now get rid of this train wreck we call our superintendent? This guy is a embarrassment to all of us!
Kirby escapes again. Curses muttley!!!!!!
(snickering)
hahaha
I'm betting the Fed funds given to the city for security have already been spent in other places or found their way into the deep pockets of our politicians. So when it came time to actually really prepare (you know,actual equipment for the police)a collective 'oops' was heard throughout City Hall. You know what happened next: White House switchboard lights up, operator answers: 'White House', 'Oh yes Mr. Emanual, I will tell the President you called'
This is great news for CPD, protesters will still show up for the NATO meetings but no where near the amount that the G8 draws.
Holding the G8 at Camp David is a smart move, the security at that place is out of this world and I doubt any of these anarchists will breach any of the levels of security at Camp David.
What a blow to Rahm & McCarthy LOL
When they President of the United States sees that you cannot handle such an event that tell you something.
When the Rahminator asked to host G8 it was his humongous ego writing a check that his would not be able to cover. I am sure he crawled back to Obozo to get him out of this sure to be impending disaster.
I am sure all of Chicago breathes a huge sigh of relief.
This is as relieving as news of the asteroid missing the earth.
Good job SCC. How insignificant are you now?
OOPS, I counted on all that extra cash....now what ? Garrrrrrrry we are so f*cked.
good thing the assholes @ CPD fucked up our furlo plans and cancelled furlos. Fucked us on plans and arrangements to DC for Memorial.....
Fuck You Rham and Mc Dope!!!!!
W. Green #391
Damn!!! Mark W. and his deputies, the We&b boys, were all set to protect their beloved ABC 7. Legends in their own minds!!!
About time the adults stepped in.
2 Squared says; This is great news, almost as good as when I found out we were the first city eliminated from getting the olympics. Stay safe, 002 supervisor on second watch.
How are all the kids from Schamburg and Northbrook going to get to Camp David to protest?
Not fair!!
Rahm was afraid this would ruin Chicago and fuck up his first term. He asked the President to take it to Camp David. What a failure!
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!1
The City that WORKS!!!!
What am I going to do with all the training and high tech equipment that I never got???
Still LMFAO!!!!! Hahahaha!!!! These clowns finally got some sense or fear.
How nice
They started all this nonsense without asking anyone who knew anything, so now the White House has to bail them out and it will cost the taxpayers even more money to redo everything.
Nice goin Rham....
still got Nato, still got an entire month of May worth of protesters acting like total assholes. nothing has changed.
Thank GOD!!!!
what's the reason? security reasons or lack thereof?
All I will say is thank you , there is a God and he just took a shit on Tiny Dancer and the New York Cork Soaker
thank god!!!
Now we have to worry about Nato...people are still pissed. And I agree that the White House has zero confidence with the Chicago Police Department.
Everytime a G-8 Summit gets moved, an angel gets its wings.
Thank you god!!!
I will bet that Rham just wanted the 75 Million in Homeland Security cash and won't have to pay it back.He could use it for "you know, the children". I've said it before and I'll say it again: Rham is one treacherous Mofo and he is 3 steps ahead of everybody politically. Hope the FOP negotiating team is prepared to dig in and fight a long, drawn out, dirty battle!
Rham blinked and call his buddy O to help him out.
Goes to show you, Obummer has zero confidence on the jagoff leaders in Shitcago.
0330 has it right,the protesters cant get near camp david.So they will be here may 1st for may day guaraunfuckingte.Here is another thought did netanyho say something to obama today that caused this such as watch iran go up in smoke if you do not get their nuke program stopped
1st the Olympics.
Then the Taste is scaled back.
Obviously if we can handle the Taste, we can't handle G8!
We don't have the equipment or the manpower.
Thank you to the Secret Service and State Department for recognizing on a GOOD DAY we are not capable of protecting our hard working taxpayers. The thought of simultaneous RPG attacks on the hotels of the leaders of the 8 leading economies and no way of evacuating them is frightening. This is a signal that a major terrorist attack is aimed at our city along with the expected 100,000 protesters, usual shit heads, and grid lock. Might be good to get your kids/wife out. NATO is still on and is going to be a nightmare.
Is Deb Kirby still allowed to put this on her resume? I can't wait for these assholes to still show up and the city not be ready
AWESOME!
Rahm blinked!
He shows himself to be in over his head as a leader!
Da Pelon
You can b.s. the media and citizens of chicago.But apparently not the secret service and homeland security
A while back I agreed with Shaved, who predicted this may happen. But some jackass said I was stupid, and that the G8 was going to happen.
What up now, fool? Ha! Ha! Ha!
Someone interrupt Rahm's mani-pedi and tell him the protesters are still going to come here.
Of course NOW we don't get any of the Federal dollars for the protesters AND there will be no revenue coming in from it. Great job!
When the protestors heard they would have to ride the CTA Red Line to G8, they said " fuck it, we ain't gonna get robbed, raped, or get our cellphones and Ipods snatched "
Not to disagree about the preparedness of our police departments, but it wouldn't have mattered.
Chicago PD could have been at full staff, and paraded down the streets in combat armor, and released videos on the Youtubes of themselves training with rubber bullets and nightsticks and pepper spray and waterboards and flying ju-jitsu.
The vile animals that come to G8 summits would still have found a way to clog up our roadways, and trash our city. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Let someone else deal with em.
Doubt we were ever meant to host it in the first place. I'm sure this was the plan all along.
The sad part is we still have two groups of idiots to deal with. The idiot mayor and his bitch Mcloveslittleboys and the protesters! NATO needs to be sent elsewhere now! I'm just waiting to see rahm try to blame the police, teachers and firemen! Hey rahm SUCK IT IN ADVANCE!
Gotta wonder if the bamster and tip toes didn't just punk all of the protesters. If they did you have to give them props.
If it was because of the crappy planning at leat the right decision was made to move it.
A--hole Thayer says NATO will be the target of demonstrations in lieu of G-*.
Won't make a bit of difference. NATO still coming, protesters still coming, we r still undermanned. We r still fucked we just got a little bit of lube to go along with it.
Rahm had the event moved to Camp David for the safety of the children!!
people do not seem to understand, this makes everything much worse. everyone planning to come is still coming. no demonstrators can get anywhere close to camp david, so they will still come to chicago for NATO, as planned. the only difference now is that the gov/sec. service will not be officially responsible for security for those two days. now, its all you. cancelling one and not both is the worst possible thing that could have happened.
Now we know why 9.5 was summoned to D.C. last week to meet with Janet Napolitano, head of Homeland Security. She told the tiny dancer that reports had been received that CPD was undermanned and under trained for the combined G8/NATO conferences. In order to avoid some head of state or prominent individual from one of the G8countries getting blown up or shot, they moved the G8 to a much more secure location. We will still have to deal with the portesters that will come for the NATO event but at least half will probably go to the Camp David area to protest. Big win for the citizens. Big kick in the pants for Rahmbo and McMouthy.
the protesters and anarchists will still come and be pissed that they missed half their target. don't be too happy, this thing still has the potential for disaster. many of the players from g-8 will still attend nato.
Hey Rham and GMac, wat didthe five fingers say to the face? SLAP!!!!!! LMFAO.......Have fun paying that money back
Breathe a little easier, brothers and sisters. You made your point. Good luck with NATO, IF that bolo still happens.
Ha ha ha Chicago shows the world once again what a second class regional city it really is. There was no way president Obama was going to trust Rahm on this one. How can the city ever host a premier event like the g8 or the Olympic games when it can't even manage the taste of Chicago. See what happens when the police department is nudered. Rahm can thank himself, pfleger, so-called judges, and the city council for this debacle. No security = no hosting.
Hold the high fives boys and girls, the jagoffs are still coming and now they have more to be pissed off about. Chicago is still the podium for their bullshit, so lets not let our guard down.
Awwwww, what a shame.
Doesn't change anything
Now try and unf@#k the closing of the areas and districts.
Screw you RHAM.
Screw you MCDOUCHEBAG.
SCREW you union a....holes who helped this city shit on us.
IDIOTS YOU CAN'T UNSCRAMBLE AN EGG.
Black duct tape sales just dropped by 500%
From a political standpoint scheduling these conferences in the President's hometown 6 months before the election was STUPID with a capital F.
The 1968 riots put Tricky Dick Nixon in the White House on his law and order campaign.
Mayhem from asshole anarchists would not have helped Obama in November. Of course if the GOP keeps up their "every sperm is sacred" campaign he may not need any help.
I just hope the NATO conference draws fewer protesters. Since Camp David is near DC perhaps the idiots will camp there.
My guess is the Secret Service realized that Chicago was not prepared for the G-8.
thats a relief
Can I cancel my retirement date?

Does Rahm get a discount on his manicure because of his partial lack of a middle digit?
What an extremely shocking disappointment for Mayor Emannuel and his police Supt.
Our leaders keep talking up Chicago as a "world class city" while at the same time neglecting our city's foundation- a strong financial balance sheet, good schools, public safety, free of corruption, etc...
In the meantime the rest of the world sees Chicago for what it truly is. It is no wonder the G8 summit was cancelled. This is just like the repeat of when Chicago lost the Olympic bid.
Ha ha ha Chicago shows the world once again what a second class regional city it really is. There was no way president Obama was going to trust Rahm on this one.

From a previous post, "I bet someone $1.00 the G8/NATO might be canceled here..."
OK, one is, and one isn't so it's a draw. We still may see Al Qaeda try to put a few bombs around here and then watch what happens.
I was just practicing my wedge formation.
Its an election year and if we failed even a fraction in controlling this event it would lead to negative results for Obama. This is a good thing for the city and the department as a whole. It would have been a good showcase for the city but the drawbacks are just to great.
NATO STILL IN CHICAGO
only g8 has moved
"Now we know why 9.5 was summoned to D.C. last week to meet with Janet Napolitano, head of Homeland Security. She told the tiny dancer that reports had been received that CPD was undermanned and under trained for the combined G8/NATO conferences."
--3/05/2012 04:19:00 PM
Ah HA. Was THAT the reason for Emanuel rushing to the airport lights-and-siren?
Had to get himself feeling important, I guess.
Oh. What was Janet Napolitano's military/police/security background again?
so do we get to to re-bid furlos now to include the 5b segment?
I bet the G8 will still be here and this was a diversion. They are all professional liars. That putin,syrian and iranian and quadafy and mubarak has nothing on the demorats of this country as far as blatant lies and propaganda is concerned. Every crooked world leader and some little shit leaders have their own Frank and Fran press corps.
To you hairgelled idioits that bought turtle gear...... GFY. -rahm
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu met with Obama this morning. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to connect the dots and see the connection. Israel has to destroy Iran's nuke facilities and MAY is optimal weather conditions. Iran and it's well trained web of Jihadist elements, sleeper agents in this country and the Leaders of the 8 Wealthiest Countries in the World in one place, make for a recipe for disaster. NATO is still on and going to be hell, but less motorcades, dignataries. I'd still get my family out of town.
Kirby will get promoted
THANK GOD!
Did Rio get G8 too, or was that just an Olympic replay I saw today?
The gear you purchased: write it off on your taxes.
Soldiers do when they deploy.
Oh yes we do.
They cancelled it because the Cubs/Sox cross town classic is played on May 18 maybe ? ha..
Lets see how Levine, Jacobson, and Kurtis spin this one!
That is terrible news. I was really looking forward to it. That's bogus.
On topic now --
This is nearly the biggest slap in the face Tiny Dancer and McWhiskey could have gotten for their complete wooly-headed, year-late-in-planning incompetence. Them and Mayor Daley's Olympic-committee leftovers.
Obama gave Emanuel half a loaf here so Baby wouldn't hurl himself out the nearest window. Rahm has got to be shrieking now as it is. Stay clear.
Don't worry, fedgov will still help Baby with security.
Thanks to SCC and everyone who contributes -- I'm quite certain that the constant cry of "The Emperor Has No Clothes" regarding the Emanuel administration's incompetence helped to at least halve an unpleasant burden that the ordinary people of Chicago never asked for.
OT
Hidden in the hurricane:
http://www.suntimes.com/news/11080450-418/emanuel-on-infrastructure-trust-trust-me.html
Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Monday his proposal to create a $1.7 billion “Infrastructure Trust” is not a license to either lease city assets or cherry pick projects to finance behind a veil of secrecy.
Because the trust would be set up as a 501 C-3, the tax designation for not-for-profit organizations, concerns have been raised about how transparent the selection process will be.
The Freedom of Information Act does not apply to non-profits. Neither does the Open Meetings Act or purchasing laws that require most construction contracts to be awarded to the low-bidder.
Nope, sorry boys and girls. The protesters have made too many plans to change them. The shit is still coming. Now they are going to be even more pissed because they are going to be screaming and there is going to be no one here to hear it other than us blue shirts. We were the decoy all along.
Don't go celebrating too soon. There'll still be more than enough mayhem to go around in May.
* NATO will still draw unprecedented numbers of protestors; many will be G8 'leftovers' who will be hanging out and starting shit because their travel and lodging itineraries couldn't handle the last minute changes to get to Maryland.
* The Crosstown Classic will soak up a decent amount of police resources, and the reality of the ghetto savages doing what comes naturally if the Bulls win around the same time will further deplete an already criminally understaffed department.
I wouldn't be heaping too much praise on the 'big thinkers' that will say this tactical move to keep protestors off balance was their plan all along. No, it's just that reality (kinda) is seting in now that enough people are finally seeing how dismal an idea this whole shebang was from the jump.
From just the law enforcement angle of the whole equation, someone seems to have figured out that CPD has grossly underrepresented (lied about) their true manpower numbers. Now let's add in the rumored 500-700 new retirees between now and then. Plus coppers injured during these fiascos depleting already-taxed district manpower levels post-summits.
So don't go buying airfare and tickets to Disney quite yet, as I'm sure there'll still be no 5/5B furloughs. The question I want answered is: WILL THE NEWLY CREATED TITLES/PROMOTIONS (with corresponding pay bumps) FOR THE CHOSEN FEW CLOUT HACKS STILL BE IN EFFECT??
Will we still need 3 (?) 'Liaison Of Goldstar Bossholes International Welcoming Posse' members as well as the handful of jagoffs in other various concocted 'support roles' to these mouthbreathers? Or were us Sheep not to notice these assholes will still be collecting tall cash for unneccessary, dreamt up positions?
Next up: partially rescinding the D-Unit closures when logistics and results prove to be miserable failures..
ALL IS WELL!!! ALL iIS WELL!!! Verbal judo people!

Exactly what I said when I heard.
Guys, this changes nothing. They can't get near Camp David, so they will still be here. Their travel plans are made, their organization is already in place. Don't let down your guard.
I call bullshit on this... Last minute they will reschedule it to Chicago... This is a ploy to elevate the demonstrators in Shit cago... Rham and McFuck both got their dicks caught in a wringer as we can't provide the proper law enforcement protection and these two idiots finally were told by the feebs that we can't control this summit. How ya like me now jackasses!!??
I have to say that I'm upset that we are not going to hold the G8 summit. this really would have been our time as P.O's to shine. Had we been able to succeed at both events the mayor would have to pay up and give us a new contract. Im sure I'm going to take some flak for it bet that in everyones heart theres a little disappointment were not going to host this.
A 9 year vet...
While I'm happy that the G8 has been moved and the Southside St. Patricks Day parade is expected to be cold and rainy, I would rather Rham and McCarthy have to be shown up as the uncaring, unorganized doofuses they are. Thayer & Co. will still protest but the NATO conference won't be NEARLY the strategic target that G8 would've had been. Now they won't be able to throw up the Peace Sign like Ayers and Dohrn did in the 60's, man...
Whoa.!!!
This is a massive show of no confidence from the G-8 members. Chicago is seen as an unsafe place for them to travel to.
I wonder if it was just one or more members that were going to pull out and that's what triggered the change?
Don't they realize that this is the sanctuary city? Ha.. maybe they do!
Thousands of illegal immigrants roaming the streets -- we don't know who they are -- where they are -- or what intention they have.
Me thinks that there is much more to this story in regards to security that we don't know yet. How do they say that again: "we've been getting a lot of chatter..." yeah ...you know the routine.
They all saw the Compstat video!!!
Word coming out of 35th street says the Secret Service had to report back to Obama, and the Feds felt the CPD was too short of officers to hold such an event. Despite what Rahm & McCarthy claim, the Feds say CPD is short over 4000 officers for the population. Better start hiring Rahm!
Nothing will change except the dates. NATO is still coming.
Damn it.....my money was on G8 to be moved to Rio de Janeiro.
RIO, Chicago's alternate city.
Now if NATO can just bring in some military force to help us in May...
Chicago got pimped-slapped!!!!!!
I don't buy the media/political spin and neither should you.
Chicago, and the brain trust of SG and DK couldn't handle it, and the grown-ups at the table finally tired of it.
Mobile Force Field unite!!!! Road trip to Camp David! I've got the chips and juice boxes covered.
Channel 9 News is reporting the protestors have announced they are coming to Chicago regardless and will protest on Saturday-Sunday, 19-20 May 2012.
Too late to change furlos but maybe the city can allow po's CU or BFD's to attend DC police week
Even with the G8 gone, Nato summit will be here so there will be alot of po's needed for thjat and to protect the dignitaries. My guess is all or most of the federal help that we were going to get,(FBI, secret service, marshalls) will be headed for Camp David so there will still be plenty for the CPD to do.
Camp David it is.
Now we find out if Occupy and "Black Bloc" and all the rest of them have a pair or not.
Easier to bust store windows and push women around than it is to go up against near-invisible, dug-in Marines, huh?
I thought so.
Appending Occupy handbook now -- "Use almost any tactic..."
its impossible to get a call girl into camp david
Word at HQ is that one of the G8 advance team got Jacked for his iPad while scouting the venues up in 18. I think 18 might be seeing a command change in the very, very near future.
funny......it's not coming here because he cant get any outside agencies to help either....who the fuck wants to come and deal with any part of this...WHAT A JOKE..
9 1/2 should go back to washington.... good riddins..
Ah yes...let the Audit of Federal Funds for the Chicago G8 begin.
Maybe Rahm will finally see what a stupid shit McGoofy is. He is by no means a leader nor is he a good manager. Rahm sold us a bill of goods nad McGoofy sold Rahm a bill of goods. Hey Rahm, payback is a bitch and we are enjoying watching you eat crow. Spin this all you want, you and McGoofy FAILED!

LMAO!! I just spit out my PB&J!
The people need to demand answers now. How many tax dollars have been wasted, why did powers that be, pull the plug and why is the Police Dept so undermanned?
I think it was planned to end like this all along. To frustrtate and force retirement as well as frustrate the "plans" of incoming demonstrators and now "see" who moves to relocate to Camp David area!
Actually it seems to be a smart business move and quite interesting from this administration from all angles. What do they care how it concerns us as "we" panicked over nothing and nonsense and some left and couldn't handle the pressure etc. etc.
Its what they wanted anyways! Now these protestor orgnaizations have to re-organize and re-structure themselves. Its kind of funny and maybe they should re-locate it again come April too!
WHO CARES! Sorry for those that bailed and stressed and bought equipment and bullshit and changed watches and furlos but.......with this administration (Rahm and Obama....what did you expect?)
3 bars
Wonder if this wasn't an election year if they would have cancelled it...
--No Cop Here
they shoulda sent it to London...they still have some unburnt buildings from the last one...
We're still screwed, they are coming anyways, and there going to be even more determined, now that they scared away the g8
USA!!! we just fucked all the you G8 shitheads... don't mess with the US ... het anarchist assholes
smile for the FBI
to all the momo's who bought turtle gear like 03/05/2012 03:21PM
hahahahahahahahahaha!
Ruin my furlough then cancel g8. Rahman you are an asshole.
Ha Ha Mc Drunk. Ha Ha anarchists. NATO's next.
whew , now we know why Chicago didn't get the summer olympics
Keep the message simple when people ask you why it was cancelled:
The two carpetbaggers, Emanuel and McCarthy, have destroyed the CPD and the WH pulled the plug on these dangerous maniacs.
Rham just got punked big time by Barry.
I will tell you what: Any one of you that believes that thisdecision was made in the last couple of days, maybe you would like to buy a bridge too. Look at the facts. Why do you think the equipment and trainingnecessary to successfully handle this was coming as slowly as it was? Right, the powers that be were on the fence and leaning away from Chicago for G-8. Rahm and Barrack at some point finally coame to their senses and realized that what happened to the Democratic Party in 1968, a near unanimous election of NIxon, could just as easily happen again as a result of this. The only question I have is why did they wait this long to make the final decision? Could the answer be some late breaking intelligence information? Could it be that information revealed that the only sensible place to have the thing would be a secure facility like Camp David. The possibilities are endless. Unless some of the idiot protesters are really dumb, NATO will be a piced of cake.
we laugh now but the feds noticed we didnt have enough manpower to protect the city!
The problem is still the same except no McCormick Place.
and all the same goofs are showing up.
Rick Pearson from the Sun-Times was on one of the TV news shows babbling something about "the aldermen" having something to do with the G8 pullout.
Please.
Spare us.
the protesters will still come and tear up chicago while the elite g-8 will be safe at fort david..
White House pulled the plug on g8 after meeting with Israeli prime minister this morning. Israel will bomb Iran soon. G8 would be a big security risk in Chicago.
does this mean all those new international bosses will get the boot?
Hey rham go get your shinebox!
Great. I just bought my turtle gear.
It was a terrible idea and we will still remember it at election time Mr. Mayor.

That's what you get for paying for something the department was supposed to pay for. If you had just held out and stuck with your brothers and sisters in blue, you wouldn't be out the money. If Rahm and Obamao want an event, you don't pay for it. They do.
rahm is the king of chaos..while he is causing this chaos his people are prob robbing the city blind..
NATO is still coming and the protesters will still be here. ObaMAO doesn't care about military people getting shit on, he just didn't want world leaders to be embarrassed next to him.
Chicago couldn't get it together to equip their department in time, and it is still the case with NATO coming. No equipment, and a major international summit on the way in less than three months.
The only thing that changed is the G8 was moved so it wouldn't be the complete disaster it would have been.
do we still need all those useless clout babies at the academy? instructors my ass..
NYPD here. All I can say is WOW! Great for our brothers in the windy city. No one wants to deal with that shyte. You will moss out on OT but it would have been blood money.
Cn I have a 5B furlough now
Andy Thayer, a spokesman for the Coalition Against NATO-G-8, also said the protests will go on in Chicago, despite the change.
“The main thing is, the protests will go forward,” said Andy Thayer. “We believe that NATO is, frankly, the de facto military arm of G-8 and anybody who’s upset with G-8 should be upset with NATO.”
THEY R STILL COMING!!!
So does this mean no training or equipment? The protesters are still coming boys and girls. They can go to Camp David and look at the pine trees or come to Chicago. The plane tickets are still bought. Have a good laugh at the department and Mayor but still prepare yourself mentally for the worse. Also, dont stop asking for training and equipment.
Bitten
now that the big dog got bit
watch him take it out on the little dogs like teachers cops and firemen.
hey what the fuck? i was supposed to make $3,564.75 in ot. How am i gonna make this money now? I'm gonna have to eat tuna everyday now and save that money
liberal elite's you guys cant have your cake and eat too....i think democrats should pay higher taxes since they want so many entitlement programs,put your money where your mouth is..
What happens if the protesters come but the feds do not provide any funds for the G8 half of this event?
thats what happens what you keep on hiring shitheads to run the city and department..detroit 2..
isn't this what most coppers wanted?
Y bitch?
Can they move the Puerto Rican fest to Camp David too?
Now what is the department going to do with all of the gray ribbons with the eight-ball in the center that everyone was to get six months after the event?
Even though G8 will now be held at Camp David, the protesters will still come to Chicago to demonstrate. They have the attention of the media and that is all these zealots want. They will stop at nothing to push their cause. If you are assigned to NATO summit stay alert, never relax too soon. Do not let your guard down. Remember, use common sense, treat everyone with the dignity they deserve given the circumstances. Above all stay safe and at the end of your tour go home to your family.
cut some of this welfare and let these welfare abusers get out of this state we cant afford your bullshit anymore..
like gangbanger,violent criminal,sex offender and suppose sick youth that can run like deers that we chase selling drugs..
Not so fast everyone...just because the G-8 is getting out of Dodge, the Nato is still on and will attract the same protesters. You can mark my words on this, NOTHING HAS CHANGED!
rahm please resign..
So just EXACTLY when do I, Joe Taxpayer, get my tax refund back for my share of my Tax-Dollars that went into this boodoggle ????
AMEN !
Heard that the Protesters are STILL coming here, so now what ?
DEMOCRAT F@ck Ups, again !
How many tens of millions does Rahm get to keep to pay down some of Shortshanks City debt ?
19-Paul
Where is that $350k for the face shields????
Its for the children! Honestly, it's really is for the children!
Even Oddbama was smart enough to see that the 2 stooges, Rahmmi Raccoon and McStreetlightpopper could NEVER handle this, in an Election year, or otherwise.

Yeah, that other Communist, that Iosbaker asshole, says the same thing.
That makes two people...
Keeping all these loonies moving in approximately the same direction is like herding cats.
Watch the money flow and lock the leaders up on income tax/RICO charges -- also look into civil liability for any damage done.
Does this mean that Carlos Velez will not be an Acting Deputy Chief anymore???
Great, just great. Now what am I going to tell the fat chicks at Teasers now? Thanks a lot.
Great news
Hahahaha
From 019 district town hall ..... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhahhhhhhhhhahhhhhhhhhhahhhhhahhhhhhahhhhhhahhhhh..........
That is all
Oh, oh.
This has an ugly sound to it.
Netanyahu Gives Obama Purim Scroll
By Jonathan Ferziger - Mar 5, 2012 4:26 PM CT
"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave President Barack Obama a Purim Megillah scroll, which tells the story of how Jews prevailed over a plot to kill them in ancient Persia, which is present-day Iran.
"Netanyahu gave Obama the gift today during a White House meeting, two days before the Jewish holiday of Purim begins.
"The bulk of the discussion was on how to stop present-day Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, the Israeli leader said.
“Israel has succeeded in raising Iran to the center of our discussions,” Netanyahu told Israeli reporters in Hebrew following the meeting..."
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-03-05/netanyahu-gives-obama-purim-scroll-on-ancient-persian-plot-during-meeting.html
It has pretty much been calculated that Israel cannot do the job by itself -- the numbers of planes needed, the distances involved, the resupply and refueling points, the types of ordnance needed are simply beyond them. Too many targets to hit, at least four.
Guess who's being asked to step in and donate huge ground-penetrating bombs and so forth.
Israel also just signed a 1.3 billion dollar arms deal with Azerbaijan, buying themselves a nearby friend.
Full moon time too...
Bad, bad, bad.
I am amazed at how this insignificant blog was able to derail a summit of the world's most powerful elites. Pretty impressive for an insignificant blog. Rahm's furor will be great.
This blog must be read in Washington D.C.
Not sure what made me laugh louder; us getting shitcanned from the Olympics in the first round or this. Classic shit either way.
So...all you MFF guys who volunteered. What now? Hows losing your contractual rights feel now?
Rham's face meet egg, egg meet Rham's face.
Are they still planning on using the old belmont and western, and prairie stations to house all the mass arrestees?
This is two major embarrassments to Chicago, we look like incompetent neanderthals to every respectable police agency on the world now.
This was definitely the correct course of action.
Maybe the media will now focus on the severity of the manpower crisis.
Hey Tiny dancer - The Annotated one does not trust you or your so-called chief.
In the spirit of John Kass - Here's the Moutza to you!
NAH!!
