You've got to hand it to Chicago. Not only is it so corrupt that nobody
dares fight the corruption for fear of becoming part of the aggregate in a
concrete building foundation, but even the sportswriters are driven to
paroxysms of disgust and flights of literary acrobatics. From the
Sun-Times today:

"The City of Chicago, led by Mayor Daley and a vast and tumorous army of
aldermen and bagmen and yesmen and opportunists and spineless, parasitic
political-machine halfwits of forms never seen outside the roiling
cesspool of governmental slop-trough greed, has proven itself unworthy of
something as potentially delicious and fulfilling as the 2016 Olympic
Games..."

You guys don't know the half of it.

Our politicos have been like this for so long, that they think this is how
you're supposed to do it.

They keep indicting them and they still can't keep their hands out of the
cookie jar.
It's like telling someone to stop whipping their dog.

You see them on the news and they all have a look on their face that says,
"That's how you run a city. You federal guys are keepin' me from doin' my
job!"
