City: More cops are on the way :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: City Hall


Mayor Daley once again, comes up short.

Here again, this Mayor wasted millions of taxpayer dollars on a futile attempt on getting the Olympics, when it should have gone towards hiring more police. Millions more missing from the "Tax Increment Fund" (TIF), that could have been used towards hiring more police. Money from the disastrous "Parking Meter Sale", that could have been used towards hiring more police.

Why does it takes tragedy, after tragedy for this Mayor to slowly move towards finally doing anything that addresses the blinding, in your face problem this city faces on a day to day basis? From this viewpoint, it appears all he really cares about is stuffing his, and his cronies pockets. Yeah, I know that is harsh. But tell me, what, and why does this Mayor sit on his hands, when he should be down in Springfield pushing for stricter, longer sentences for these criminals with "Illegally Obtained" guns?

I do so hope Mr. Mayor, that you are not considering another run. Maybe, with some luck, should you decide another run, come up short on the vote tally.
