Rahm Still Going Dirty

This does not smell like a confident campaign. This flyer arrived in the mail today:




Chicago hasn't laid off an officer in at least two decades, probably nearing three when Harold held a class hostage during the Council Wars, and that was resolved fairly quickly. Daley never laid off a single officer - though he failed to hire any meaningful numbers for nearly five years. Rahm didn't have to lay anyone off - he just ran with Daley's anemic numbers and then cut 1,200 spots from the budget, and he'll do it again with two watches.

We can't even remember a threatened firefighter lay off...and we're old.

But combine this with the staged Phil Ponce attack on Chuy's son during the debate and this low-information mailing, and you have a guy who isn't at all confident about his chances.

Replace Garcia's name and photo with Rahm's. If Garcia had a $30,000,000.00 war chest, he could print a flyer that says EXACTLY the same things about Rahm.

And he should.

Fuck the bullshit!

When you whack 1500 paid for Police positions from the municipal budget on top of 1500 (or more) retirements and only a couple hundred hires (if that many) over Rahm's first (and only) term, what the fuck else can you call this intentional diminishment of CPD manpower other than a LAY-OFF?

Nobody has the nerve enough to actually post the 1995 manpower numbers next to the 2015 numbers...

But those of us in Patrol have been wondering where the fuck did all the help we used to have, disappear to?

Days were 10-99 but you had anywhere from 6 to 12 one or two man rapids, two wagons and maybe a minivan rapid or two.

3rd watch and 1st watch?
Primary beats?
All 10-4.

9 to 12 or more rapids?
All 10-4.

A compliment of -06 cars?
10-4 or even 3 men...

Where.
Did they.
All go?


Policemen have their hands full trying to protect themselves in this era of "right sizing," "maximizing efficiencies" and of course, "we need to do more with less."

Mmm-Hmm...
Now these clown asses want 10.5 hr days and the elimination of the entire afternoon watch to conceal the fact that they intentionally strip mined CPD's budget and manpower compliment to "balance the budget."

Rahm is full of shit.
Rahm IS scared.
Rahm is BEATABLE!

For those good citizens that might actually believe this latest shit that Rahm's trying to feed you:

not one officer can be laid off, let go, terminated) or whatever you wanna call it) before every last civilian is given the boot first. While this doesn't address the issue of manpower shortages, it should at least put to rest the latest anti-Garcia distraction Rahm is creating.

Tiny Dancer is feeling the heat and he's pulling out all the stops in an attempt to discredit ChewDog. It's so obvious that Tiny Dancers days are numbered. Unless he announces that our pension funding has been brought up to snuff to win over all the coppers and firemen that are prepared to vote "Chewie".

Fuck you, Rahm.

Rahm didn't have to lay off anyone, he did it by attrition!

Then reduced the budget by 1200 police officers and closed police districts.

If the people that live in these areas think they still have the same amount of police, they are soft as shit!

Once we go to 10hr days the budget will be further reduced.
But not in the ghetto, they will always have plenty of officers. The reduction will be in the tax payers areas.

More with less!

This ad irked me. If Chuy is going to hire 1000 cops and per Rahm he voted for the largest property tax increase, which by the way was done to prevent police and fire layoffs, how does this ad make sense? This ad is a huge stretch and distortion of reality.

Words are not sufficient.

What is that motto on the "Emanuel" family crest -- the one depicting people sitting on a bag of money and screaming at each other? "Inferiorem vero regionem, semper inferiori."

"Lower, ever lower."

Making out like the police Rahm hates are his personal army. "You won't see these cars patrolling your neighborhood?" How come a lot of the decent areas are like that already?

"Promises?" How many billions has Rahm I. actually pissed away on window dressing, TIF-loan-funded Potemkin villages of shiny new streets lined with empty stores, and architectural renderings of bright summer days depicting everyone wandering around riverwalks and skateribbons and dogparks and bikepaths like they don't have anything else to do? As bad as Nelson Rockefeller with his vast Stalinist "plazas" and "sculptures" and zillion-dollar marble-lined tunnels filled with "rare art" in Albany.

Pure frighten-the-old-people, you-won't-get-any-service tactics, like those phone calls from "Illinois Police Benevolent Association" or whatever it is, some storefront operation peddling little stickers for your door that will scare off ghosts, in which the guy actually uses a classic mugger routine to check you out, shake you up at the beginning. "Are you alright? Are you alright?"

He is desperate. He knows how many struggling people saw the pictures of the RahmRaunerLLC casual lunch at the $150,000/year "club" in Montana, with him strolling around the verdant surroundings swinging a $6,000 bottle of wine. A little late to start playing "friend of the downtrodden."

What color "We Care All Of A Sudden" ribbon is he trying to tie around our d__k?

Managing post-Rahm Chicago will be like responding to some "unknown disturbance in the apartment, caller say someone say he have a gun." You don't know WTF until you get in there -- quick-peeking around the corners all the way -- but Rahm is putting forth like you have to get out the car with a thousand-page notarized plan under your arm.

Hell, it will take a good four years just to clean out the "GOLAN MOVERS" boxes of swindles and connivance and thieving and scheming and plotting that are stashed in the basement of Emanuel's City Hall. It will be like turning over a rock.

What else besides a "wedding dress" is hanging in our attic?

Time to hand this shrieking, knife-wielding, hateful little bastard a dead fish in a newspaper -- as others already have.

I remember the Mayor Washington "lay-off", and it lasted for less than a day. Probationary Officers turned in their I.D.s and stars in the morning, but went to work on the 3rd & 1st Watch that same day, nobody lost anything, and that class was the class with Ralph Price in it; did it hurt his career? And ironically one of the Alderman responsible for that fiasco is still in the Council, his name is Ed Burke. However, this tactic will work with ignorant voters, including coppers who are still sprouting cliches like: "Chuy has no financial plan." Or, " I would rather deal with the devil I know than the one I don't know." If you do not realize by now that THIS DEVIL you know has nothing but contempt for Police and Firefighters. And by the way what is Rahm's financial plan? So far we have seen higher fees and the enrichment of his cronies, what does that do for the Working Cop? How about the way he held the Retro Hostage? Are your memories that short? Cops are their own worst enemies."G"

I'm surprised that you "Second City Cop" are not calling what Rahm did with the Police Department for what it is. Rahm campaigned on "putting 1,000 more police officers on the street"...remember...when he got into office he told everyone that they didn't listen to what he said. Rahm said that he didn't mean to mislead anyone and that he meant he was going to re-assign 1,000 more police to the street. Even that was a lie. Now for what Rahm really did...

Don't sugar coat it...

Stripping 1,500 positions from the Police Department (Original staffing budgeted for 13,500...new budget for 12,000) is FIRING 1,500 Police Officers...you could also term it LAYING OFF 1,500 Police Officers.

What politician do you think can get elected by stating they were going to immediately LAY OFF or FIRE 1,500 police officers when they got into office?

Funny though...that is exactly what Rahm did.

What is 1500 divided by 22 = 68.18
Tell me if we could use 68 more police officers in each district???
What is 68 divided by 3 = 22
Tell me if your watch could use 22 more police officers???

Hypocricy abound???

Although Rahm hasn't laid any officers off he began thinning the ranks the minute he took office( not hiring enough, eliminating thousands of positions from the budget etc.) Now he wants the Sheeplle to believe that he's the guy if you're concerned about public safety??

Chuy has repeatedly attacked Rahm for neglecting public safety and Chuy has stated that he'll eventually hire 1,000 additional officers.
I hope this slanderous, misleading and patently false flyer is the nail in the slimy bastard's cioffin!

The neighborhood snowbird has returned from sunny Florida. He was not pleased to see his front lawn decorated with Rahm Emanuel signs that were added during his absence.

The voter took an absentee and voted for Fioretti in February and is undecided about next Tuesday.

This gives a good example about all of the Rahm signs that you see popping up. The signs are not always an indication of support.

On the Southwest side, Garcia paid for a billboard. The next thing you know all of the vacant lots in the immediate vicinity were covered with Emanuel signs.

This thing may not be over yet, but Rahm wants people to think so to depress voter turn out. He is running scared and using every trick in the book to scare up votes and discourage the opposition.

Nobody likes Emanuel -- all of his support is from paid mercenaries.

Rahm closed 3 police stations.

Rahm cut the manpower on the CPD by who knows how much. Nobody will put on paper exact numbers.

Rahm is trying to cut YOUR pension.

Rahm is raising YOUR share of healthcare costs.

Rahm is trying to put YOU on Obamacare in retirement.

Rahm will not put TIF funds on the table as a pension fix. Its the political slush fund the politicians use as a piggy bank for friendly contracts.

Am I voting for Rahm?

Dispatch From The Catbird Seat:

Hey SCC!
An observation from our discrete spot tucked back in the shadows...

We too have gotten Rahm's "scare mail" regarding, "If Chuy Garcia lays off police officers, you won't see these cars patrolling your neighborhood."

Because?

Rahm has already "laid off" 3000+ Police Officers by striking 1500 already paid for but unfilled Police positions from the budget, (and of course, spending those allocated monies on anything other than Police/Public Safety) presiding over 1500+ retirements since he was installed in office.

This is offset by the merest pretense of actual hiring over the last four years... Let alone the last 15 years.

We have said so often that everybody that is somebody whether with Daley Inc. or Rahm & Co., is doing their damndest to keep the upright people who pay the freight to make Chicago go - in the dark as to what happened to their Police Department manpower over the last 20 years...

Based on our observations, we're down at least 5000.

>Rahm Trolls say: "Boooo! Have another drink Grandpa! The budget says/CLEAR says/Rahm says/McHighlyPaidPantShitter says..."<

Pay no attention to these noisy-assed misdirected children. 90% of them are young, not from Chicago, and have made no donation in skin, sweat, time, bloody tears of outrage, grief or aggravation to these streets.

They can only parrot the Alinskite progressive and neo-corporatists narrative of "The Police Must Be Destroyed/Rendered Unable To Fight Us Back..."

Who are THESE creatures, what do they REALLY want and WHY is it SO IMPORTANT that they achieve it regardless of the costs?

Things the great thinkers on this blog have been pondering... For years...

At any rate, Rahm's "scare mail" is not only bullshit but an eye watering, Fuckery tainted contradiction and a study in resolute mopery and hypocrisy.

Heh...
Rahm is working the knee-knocking shit out of that Master's in "Communications" from Northwestern, ain't he?

"Units on the Zone, units on the City-Wide, Fuckery in progress..."

"Man! Let's GO!"

Stripping 1,500 positions from the Police Department (Original staffing budgeted for 13,500...new budget for 12,000) is FIRING 1,500 Police Officers...you could also term it LAYING OFF 1,500 Police Officers.

=======

It's not "LAYING OFF" if the spots were never filled in the first place. No one got hired, no one missed a check.
==================

This is what I mean when I say "call it what it is"??? LAYING OFF isn't technically the term for what he did of course, but... relieving personnel of sworn positions was done through attrition and refusing to hire the budgeted personnel. That started in the Daley administration and bluntly completed in the Rahm administration. What is your point exactly??? Or is this Rahm. I often find teenagers who argue in this manner. Find some minutiae to stake a claim on, and press that claim as "SEEEE" look how smart I am and how you don't know anything. We (Sworn Members and their families) have to begin to think collectively and come together with definable goals. One of the more important ones would be keeping enough personnel to be safe; both the community and police. This includes our families. Not to mention keeping our pension solvent...or are you one of those guys who spews the line that "the city made it's payments"? Things that make you go Hmmmm?

$3,000 and another endorsement for Napolitano from Illinois Opportunity Project. But wont this hurt our pensions?

http://illinoisopportunity.org/category/issue/labor/#Pension%20Reform


"Lawmakers should support shifting public employees to a defined contribution, 401(k)-style retirement plan, like what is seen in the private sector. It is time to move beyond the outdated defined benefit structure for Illinois’ public employee pensions.
Here are the facts:
• Illinois needs a defined contribution, not a defined benefit, plan for its retirees. This is the only solution that will ensure that taxpayers are not left on the hook to make up the difference when investment returns (which defined-benefit systems are dependent on) inevitably fall short of projections.
• A defined benefit system (especially one that includes a funding guarantee) will - in the years to come - require annual payments from the state so large that lawmakers will either have to increase taxes or significantly cut funding for core government services, like education and public safety. Neither should be acceptable."

Neither Emmanuel or Chuy will put 1000 cops on the street, neither will re-open the closed schools. Both will raise property taxes.

Emmanuel, who became a multi millionaire after becoming a politician, is backed by the liberal elite, Obama and his gang of community organizer's. Chuy, the career politician, is backed by extreme left wingers like SEIU and Father Phleger. Sadly, both Chuy's and Emmanuel's backers would fuck the police in a heartbeat.

The rub is, how the fuck a city with a population of over 3 million could end up with a clown and an asshole as our mayoral candidates.

vote for the one who didn't close three police stations and two detective areas.

Vote for the one who didn't tell the head of the teachers union to go fuck herself. Using those exact words.

Vote for the one who did not visit two cfd houses and tell them police and fire would have to bleed, and say he was going to stick it in the police' ear (or rear, depending on who heard it).

Vote for the one who didn't play word-games with your retro pay and lord it over you about 'giving' it to you, like a jerk dangling a morsel in front of a dog.

Vote for the one whose wife stands by him at his events and who encouraged him to pursue the office (hint; that wasn't Amy, who wanted to stay in DC and who won't participate in her husband's events).

Vote for the one who isn't frittering away the TIFs, which could solve Chicago's pension woes, but he refuses to use them for that purpose.

Vote for the one who forced the other one to start dismantling the cash-grab red light cameras.

Vote for the one who did NOT bring corrupt official, Amer Ahmad, here to be Chicago Comptroller.

Vote for the one who didn't tank our bond and credit ratings several times these past four years.
Oh, come on. Really? Rahm Emanuel has done nothing but financially rape and pillage the citizens of this city, cater to the elite and ignore the people who labor at real jobs all day, and thumb his nose at everyone who he feels is beneath him, which is every single person on this planet.

No, people would believe the dog might raise taxes or might lay off the police, so they'd vote for Rahm, who WILL raise taxes and DID let the police department lose 1200 police and didn't replace them.

As to this thread, I agree with the poster who thought Ponce asked a Jag-Off question and also want to know why his two kids wind up on Anchor positions when so many other graduates could have run circles around them?

Chicago? Clout city - even the media is a "who you know" hiring bureaucracy.

That's why I watch FOX Cable News in the morning. So sick of the lame, slanted news and the cheerleader news reporters with their rah-rah attitudes towards politicians they should really slice-and-dice with objective news investigations.

Again for clarification.

In a time long, long ago you would have almost every beat car manned with 2 officers. There were 3 wagons, all manned. There were 3-5 rapid cars, called STRAC cars back then, all manned. There were 3 sergeants and usually a LT on the street. And there was most likely a traffic car and a couple of foot beats if they applied. And we still had 25 Districts. Where oh where did all the police go? Laid off or cut from the budget is the same thing to me. So Rahm is full of shit with his flyers and his ideas. I want someone new and I'll support Chuy and vote for him. He doesn't do the job and I'll vote against him next time. It will be easily getting a newbie mayor out than getting Rahm out if he secures a second term.

Judge: Harvey must pay $7.3 million to police pension fund
By Matthew Walberg Chicago Tribune contact the reporter


The cash-strapped city of Harvey has been dealt another financial blow after a Cook County judge found the suburb owes more than $7.3 million to its police pension fund after neglecting to make payments for nearly a decade.

In an order filed Friday, Circuit Judge Kathleen Pantle wrote that the city owes payments to the fund for the 2007- 2014 fiscal years, despite a settlement agreement Harvey entered in 2008 after the pension board sued over unpaid funds.


Pantle noted that while the city does not dispute the current owed amount, it believes state law gives the suburb until 2040 to pay the arrearage. But the judge said the city is obligated to make the payments under terms of the 2008 settlement, which she said was specifically designed to address the suburb's failure to fund the pension board.

Rahm Emanuel bought his way into politics as a fundraised.

He used his connections to become wealthy after living the Clinton Administration. As a well compensated member of a mortgage regulatory agency, he did nothing as the real estate market tanked due to corrupt practice in the mortgage industry.

When he cut a deal with Blagojevich and Daley to run for Congress in Blago's district, his campaign featured a number of crooked city workers who campaigned while on the city time clock. Several went to prison.

Rahm is no model of integrity.

Anybody, but Rahm.

We are really dragging the bottom when it is so difficult to find the least worst choice. Both are bad and we have to find the lesser of the two worst people. Do you think the Founding Fathers had this in mind? How is this different from just having a king or queen and sometimes you get a bad one, sometimes you get a real bad one.

To the idiot Merit promoted white shirt from Mary OConnors campaign, get your facts straight. Doherty is not Napolitanos campaign manger and will have no role in his office or administration. Talk about dirty, bullshit campaigns, take a good look at Oconnor. Stole over 250 Naps signs, Threatnens business people in Edison Park with Naps signs, has that pos ward Supertendent write tickets to people with Naps signs, that have their garbage cans in front of their homes after 4pm!! Lies about everything, for example claims crime has plummeted during her time in office, what the Fuck does she have to do with that. So far I haven't seen her name on a report!! Did 17 million in work at Taft, it was approved during last administration. Tells everybody she is full time Alderman, then takes a picture in her sandwich shop behind a register. What really gets me mad is she doesn't own property in the ward/city but votes against us all the time. She has pledged to take away the 3% bump retirees get and do to us what she did to others besides CPD/CFD. Napolitano will vote for the 3% and the pensions. His family are CPD members.

Anthony Napolitano for 41st Ward Alderman. Think about your pensions, insurance and colas. Mary Oconnor and Ram have both come out and said, that will kill the 3% cola for the CPD and CFD, like they already did to the city workers. Anthony will never vote against the pensions, he was CPD/CFD, his dad, brother and uncle all coppers. Every vote counts in this very, very close election. Call anybody you know in 41 to get out the vote in this important race!!!
