Last week Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley belittled federal law enforcement for investigating corrupt city cops and other local officals: "if someone takes $100, it could be a Chicago policeman or anybody else, the feds are right there knocking on your door." Daley contends that the feds instead should focus more of their resources on targeting drug dealers and street gangs. The mayor does not understand that the dirty cops he apparently wants to protect invariably are on the take from the drug dealers, and perhaps that's one reason why street gangs proliferate in Chicago. Indeed, "[f]ederal prosecutors are . . . expected to soon bring a major indictment against a disbanded special police unit whose members were accused of kidnapping and robbing people with impunity."

This should be absolutely unbelievable, but coming from a thug like this, its just humorous.

Probably Daley is afraid it would be getting too close to his office. What a sleaze Daley is.

“Qwitcher lookin’ into my house,” says Mayor Daley, as he opens the door to the cellar.

“See there’s nothing down there,” he proclaims as he shouts down the stairs “Anyone down there?”

As the echo abates, a voice replies, “Nobody but us chickens.”

And THEN the investigation started.

What else would one expect from a Mayor named Richard Daley? Seems like the only difference between him and his father on this is the middle initial.

Furthermore, does this complaint against federal law enforcement mean that Fitzgerald is on his way out as US Attorney?
