Emanuel-Burke battle brewing - Chicago Sun-Times

Emanuel-Burke battle brewing - Chicago Sun-Times


If you are like me, this is the only candidate standing up to this relic from clout street. His (Burke) wife is a judge. He (Burke) has his own taxpayer funded police security detail. He (Burke) will also retire with more money then he would ever make as an alderman, compliments of the tax payer.

Why has this city let this happen? Why hasn't one investigative journalist studied this career of simple robbery of the people? Where is the Attorney General? Are all these people afraid of this one man? I just find it hard to believe that out of all these people running for Mayor, just one, finally called out an alderman that shows nothing but utter contempt for his constituents. In this new age of accountability, it's time for Mr. Burke to reconsider gouging his constituents. Those officers should be on the streets. Last time I checked, you are not the Mayor.

Let those police officers go. They belong to the City, not you.
