All I know about Chicago is what I read here---I always knew there was corruption in Chicago, but I had no idea of the scale of the corruption until the messiah had the spotlight turned on to the politicians in the city.

Chicago makes New Orleans look like well run city--LOL!

****Chicago makes New Orleans look like well run city..***

Yup and Rome looked much the same.......it’s not aging bricks and mortar that cause the deterioration of a civilization ...but rot in the leadership of all failed societies.

Its not only Chicago but the entire state.

IL is controlled by 'the Combine'. They work with (bribe) anyone of either party. Sometimes you wonder if they don't actually pick both candidates ('semi' joking).

And how you missed the threads on our past criminal Gov, George Ryan (RINO-Convicted FELON), and his criminal conspiracy trial.. I don't know? And it was thanks to him and his criminal 'R' cronies that the IL GOP is in total shambles and literally gave all state offices to the RATS that the GOP had controlled for decades.

(If you have the time go to Drudge, find the Chi Tribune link then go there and find John Kass's articles on 'The Combine'.)
