Daley is going most certifiably bonkers. As the circling federal vultures continue to pick at his fiefdom and devour one after another of his clan of thieves, he continues to rant about how the Olympics will be the magic potion that will save Chicago from economic doom.
He lied about the parking meter fiasco, he lied about the deal in Lausanne. He is not to be trusted with anything, much less his involvement with the Olympic bid. The natives are angry and restless, and no amount of cheerleading from his propaganda committee should be believed or tolerated.
It is a true shame that a world class city like Chicago should be denied it's chance at the Olympics because of a bunch of greedy, hack politicians who think they are kings and rule with impunity but require constant monitoring from Federal agencies to play by the rules.
I hope David Hoffman can do a number with this John Harris character- this is gonna be a very bad nightmare for Daley.
Finishing "Captive City", by Ovid Demaris. Until Fitzgerald has a stream of convictions, this is idle chit chat. Illinois should go from license plates "Land of Licoln" to land of "fetchers". Not much has changed in 40 years.
