Another group of Obama allies helped bankrupt Chicago's municipal pensions.

Move along folks, nothing to see here.

Democrats are always somewhat corrupt but Chicago always seems to take the cake.

That’s how they roll in Chicago.
But to be fair, they steal from everyone else too, not just pensioners.

Why call it a Fiasco, when that was the intended result all along?

And so another Daley...Bill Daley, son of Richard Daley, is running for Chicago Mayor. Might as well keep the graft in the family.

They cheat their own people and the people still vote for them? How does that happen?

Somehow the ignorant Democrat voters in Chicago will believe the Republicans, and by extension Donald Trump, are responsible for this fiasco. As a former Democrat I learned a sad fact that many Democrats still refuse to grasp. Everything that party touches turns to a stinking pile of excrement, and they leave you with the mess to clean up!

“Lost” should be changed to “stolen”.

Solid, detailed piece of journalism.

And, of course, because it involves Obama corruption, it will be completely ignored.

I thought pension and insurance companies were largely restricted to Treasuries and high grade corporate paper, and dividend paying blue chip stocks.

People should go to jail; heads should roll, but these are Chicago Democrats, so huge bonuses are in the cards, and several big parties will be scheduled, I’m sure.

This is no surprise for a state that is blowing $224 million to contribute the messiah worship and presidential library.

Steal from the poor and give to the rich. It’s the Chicago way.
