The Chicago Christian Industrial League left Greektown so Daley pal Michael Marchese (top right) and his partners could build a condo development. The charity now can't afford to operate its $25 million new shelter (left) abd hired Illinois first lady Patti Blagojevich to raise money.

Jeeeze ... it never ends. Chicago's New Orleans with highrises. Somebody: jail the corrupt criminals. Drain the swamp (not counting on Fitzie).

If the swamp of Chicago is drained it will have a population of approximately 450.

Maybe they can move Barack’s illegal alien relative into the shelter, or Barack’s brother-in-law from the Kenyan hut?

From another article linked on the page linked above:

"Blagojevich is paid $100,000 under a one-year contract that began Sept. 1."

"The charity won’t say how much Blagojevich has raised. But it has collected $10,000 to $15,000 in each of the past three months — the same as it did before she started, said president William Good."

If they were smart, they would relocate where it is cheaper to live and provide housing, food, and jobs in a cheaper economic location. 25 million dollars would go a lot further that way. I sometimes wonder what the true agenda may be if they do not do this.
