Although Mayor Rahm Emanuel has promised that his first aldermanic appointment would be based on a transparent community process, Jackson all but declared her chief of staff, Keiana Barrett, as her successor.

Sucks to live in Chicago.

Would suck to die there too.

Basically, it’s a little kingdom that stays intact. Nothing changes the landscape.

How much do you think Rahm Emanuel cares about all the shootings in Chicago...as long as they don’t spill out into whitelandia?

[exnavy]

I am very close to that city on the Lake Michigan shoreline in Grand Haven, Michigan.

We know to avoid the peoples republic of Ill. at all costs.

[exnavy]

Just like democrats everywhere, not one little bit.

[crosshairs]

They sho like to dictate.

The arrogance of discraced democrats who must step down for being caught in unethecial and illegal activities is unbelieveable...except it it SOP"--from the article (still keeps the excerpt under 300 words):

"From an insider’s point of view, Mayor Rahm may say he wants to have interviews. The people he will interview will be the people I am suggesting," Jackson told the gathering made up mostly of precinct workers. "They are interviewing people in the community, but they do that to calm people down. People want to have their input...."

Yea let them have thier input but make it clear it doesn't matter what the people think.

Chicago Daley/Mob/Rahm/Obama/Criminal/Gangster/Democratic/Political/Machine---who would expect anything else?

Gun Free Chicago, 500 murders in 2012.
