Is this data from before or after the mob bosses all moved to the White House?

Somewhere, Mike Royko is saying, “Finally, someone is listening!”

Chicago is the most corrupt city in the country

Hard to believe they are worse than D.C.

cost of corruption at $500 million

Proof right there they not at the DC crowd level, that number is in the billions for DC kickbacks.

Imagine that! And the Messiah arose from Chicago, walking on the surface of the cesspool, the hem of his garment unstained. It’s a miracle!

Well, we knew that.

Still, in the social sciences, it is good to have rigorous studies confirm common knowledge, since occasionally common knowledge is wrong. It’s good to know this is not one of those cases.

And that corruption has been brought to the White House. In spades.

Obviously the professor has never studied Arkansas/Pulaski County/Public School politics.

BO has collected a few “unexplained” deaths surrounding him too. I too was shocked that the Clinton machine let him win. He must have something huge on them, that’s why they stay in line. Would love to know what it is.

Bill Clinton will spill the beans on his death bed, assuming he doesn’t suddenly die of a heart attack having extra-marital relations.

One cannot fully appreciate the total magnitude of this accomplishment without realizing that Chicago made it to number 1 in the corruption department even with famous Chicago political figures like the king of clout Emil Jones retired, fixer Tony Rezko convicted, world class scumbag Rod Blagojevich scouting out orange jumpsuits, and community organizer Barack Obama screwing things up on a bigger scale in DC.

It says a lot about the entrenched corruption in a city when you can make it to the top with the very worst of the bunch out-of-action.

(We still do have Rahm “four-finger” Emanudouche, however)
