There is absolutely no way anyone in this country can plead ignorance of how corrupt Chicago politicians are. There is this story I heard that, on Election Day 1960, then-Mayor Richard Daley "got" John F. Kennedy the necessary votes to carry Illinois and defeat Richard Nixon.

After following the Duke Lacrosse Frame daily for almost three years, I came to the conclusion the North Carolina “judicial system” was more corrupt than Louisiana’s. And I said as much in a letter to their Attorney General.
Now with Illinois, that puts us third from the bottom.

We might as well say Ronald Reagan must be rolling in his grave too. He was born and raised in Illinois.

There's no evidence to link President-elect Barack Obama to the latest scandal Not directly. Not yet. But obama is directly linked to the CRIMINAL Blago.

After reading this column, Louisiana may not be the most corrupt state in the Union.
Yup. Louisianaians are looking for the RIGHT kind of “change” - and it is about time.

There's no evidence to link President-elect Barack Obama to the latest scandal As I recall there is no evidence linking him to anything, not even a schoolmate has surfaced.

Is anybody stupid enough to believe ZERO HUSSEIN when he claims no knowledge of the corruption going on in Chicago?
ZERO HUSSEIN would have to be dumber than a Rock and Blinder than a Worm and totally Deafer than a Doornail to NOT KNOW AND NOT BE A PLAYER in the CORRUPTION AND DECAY OF THE CHICAGO CESSPOOL!

Illinois has had every state beat as far as corruption forever, BHL&AEL&EE(before Huey Long and after Earl Long and Edwin Edwards). Illinois politics like the Democratic Party is an ongoing criminal enterprise.
