Daley won't seek re-election :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: News
Oh this is music for my ears! Now we get the opportunity to separate all candidates from baloney blowers, too the serious minded.
This is also a great time for the Superintendent of Police to fire that "watchdog" Daley put on his back, and get serious at that department. Since we now have official "Lame-Duck" status for this mayor, let's get the indictments rolling for all those he's protected.
Yes folks, it's clean house time with such an announcement. Now let's see who will throw their respective hats into the ring. And please don't forget, if they are blowing smoke, scratch them off the list. My vote will go to the one that will "Promise" the police department will be "Fully Staffed" within their first year in office. No more cuts in education. And, we want our damn parking meters back! I'm looking for a results-oriented candidate, not another clone of this last guy.

Jobs program in jeopardy - chicagotribune.com
Jobs program in jeopardy - chicagotribune.com
A program that is "FULLY PAID" for. But for some strange reason, we still have a few misguided, misinformed, and disgusting, dirty politicians that simply rather hurt those attempting at making life better for themselves.
It's very easy for anyone to throw their hands in the air, and just say forget the political process. But what really needs to be done, is for all of us voters to send a clear message to our elected representatives. Support the working, and those looking for work, men and women across this country. When we hear an elected official calling us a "Special Interest", vote then out. They are not there showing support for us, but only for the bankers, oil industry, and any other greed merchant that piles money into their pockets.
If any person running for office doesn't have any ideas on helping the people of the United States, don't vote for them. No ideas must equal No votes. Since they refuse to correct this mess we find ourselves in, they certainly do not deserve our vote. Let them hear you, and show them we mean business, regardless of party affiliation.

Kindergarten becomes more challenging - chicagotribune.com
Kindergarten becomes more challenging - chicagotribune.com
Now this is a very thought provoking article.
I can't side with either argument because both have merit. My own niece, and great nephew are testaments for this new learning approach. They can almost run a computer better then myself, which at times is scary. I also can understand the fear that such a curriculum may churn out a generation of robotic adults, that have few social skills, once unleashed upon the world.
But then again, we have the ilk of Beck, Palin, Limbaugh, and others that are classic failures in the social skills department. So go figure. I guess we will just have to wait 20 years for solid results.

Shoes, eggs hurled at ex-British Prime Minister Blair in Dublin :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: World
Shoes, eggs hurled at ex-British Prime Minister Blair in Dublin :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: World
Monday morning quarterbacking is a bitch. Yet, if Britain decided like France, that going into Iraq was wrong because of false intelligence, Bush may have decided not to invade.
It is, and was an illegal war. And yes, they should be charged with war crimes. Yet so far, it hasn't happened yet.

4 killed in shooting in Southwest Side garage :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Chicago Crime
Drug related again. Legalize, and tax marijuana. Strengthen sentencing guidelines for the more powerfully addictive drugs such as the infamous crack, powdered cocaine, heroin, and crystal meth.
It isn't rocket science elected officials. For some strange reason, we haven't heard a peep, idea, and advocacy for such actions. I wonder why that is? Could it be that it isn't as prevalent in your neck of the woods? Well I have a news-flash for you. It's because your children pick up their dope up at these places. But don't fear. If you continue doing nothing, it will spread.
Then, and only then, we will see you spring into action. Remember when the great crack explosion hit your communities? Boy you sure jumped into action then. So don't fear, it's only a matter of time when such violence will spread. That is, as long as you elected officials keep sitting on your hands, and remaining quiet.

Gang members: Top cop's threats are harassment :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Mary Mitchell
Gang members: Top cop's threats are harassment :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Mary Mitchell
Oh boo hoo! Talk about gall? Innocent children, young men and women getting caught in the crossfire, and they have the audacity to complain.
Deal with it because your minions are carrying out your orders. Stop this nonsense, or pay the price. It's not harassment when you have been given a choice. I hope you understand the definition of the word Choice? Stop the violence, because you, yes you, issue those orders. You tell your minions to keep rivals out of your so-called turf. Henceforth, violence ensues. If one of your minions go against your orders, you punish them right? So now you have a New Choice. Tell your minions to put the guns down, or get the punishment.
Stop complaining. You were given a choice. Deal with it.

Quinn disagrees with Weis' gang meeting
Quinn disagrees with Weis' gang meeting
Some people should just STFU!
You know, if this guy wants my vote in November, he needs some backbone and support the police in dealing with this horrendous situation.
Don't pay us some lip service by getting on the criticism bandwagon, without doing your job, and passing some legislation down there. Last time I checked, you are the Governor. I haven't heard a peep, nor a plan, from you. I guess you are lucky that your opponent is even more clueless then you appear.
If you haven't heard Mr. Quinn, The United States Supreme Court struck down Mayor Daley's unconstitutional handgun ban. That should have prompted you and the rest of the legislature ample time for coming up with tougher sentencing guidelines for these "Terrorist" running around this State. Ever heard of RICO? Well the Superintendent told these terrorist leaders about it.
I would suggest you look into that if you want my vote come November. Otherwise, who knows, I just might Stay At Home. Stop flapping your lips criticizing attempts of people trying to handle this horrendous situation.
