DALEY NEWS
The mayor had no public events today. Boo. Well, I won’t be so easily defeated. In lieu of any actual goings-on to write about, I’ve used my imagination to dream up what Mayor Daley might have done today. So for your reading pleasure, I give you "Mayor Daley Plans the Olympics."
If you’d like more poorly illustrated cartoons poking fun at Illinois’ political elite, you can get ‘em here.
That’s all for this week. Have a great weekend, folks!

"Poorly illustrated?" Quite the opposite, Adam!
Hahaha, another masterpiece by the inimitable Adam Verwymeren! I especially liked the item about fixing the transit system :) As for crushing the opposition, what opposition, right?
Mayor Daley is having a chin wag this morning (March 22nd) with the Clown Prince couple from Denmark, Fred & his wife Mary, the former rather common Mary Donaldson from Taroona. It should be entertaining, neither has the ability to construct 4 consecutive words into something understandable!
Interesting. Could you perhaps share how you know about this?
In any event, yes, it's very amusing how our Mayor bears a striking resemblance to many members of royal families in that he's an affable buffoon. The difference is that he wields actual political power. Yikes :(
Great cartoon. Daley's checklist is my favorite bit.
How does Richard "Mugabe" Daley plan to pay for the Olympics? Easy. Get the state to allow speeder cams like the stoplight cams to extort drivers.
It sure won't be the parking meters, who he sold off to a protection racket company. He won't use his TIF slush fund. That's for the condo developer buddies who fund his campaigns.
Meanwhile city money for fixing potholes gets diverted to the Olympic bid too. Here's a joke imported from Zimbabwe but reworked:
How do you tell if a Chicago driver is drunk?
Easy. He's the one driving straight while everyone else is dodging the potholes!
