Hell, there are bad apples in all levels of Chicago government! But their precious Senator Durbin is just rotten to the core.....
I know... what can I say - I haven't voted for Durbin!!
And the corps
This has been a one-party dictatorship since the days of Big Bill Thompson. It has exhibited the thuggishness pervalent in them. Ham-handed, meat-headed crooks thrive here. Some of the stupidest people on earth have served as aldermen in the Chicago City Council.
But the Republican opposition is hapless an incapable of bringing this machine down. Now the State dances to its tune.
