The estimable Laura Washington kicks Todd Stroger to the curb, but the real news is advent of a Kid Staples/Uriah Heep ( Mike ‘Q-Dog’ Quigley) Looting of Chicago Team!
My God, Santa, it’s not even Halloween! Aw, yer just teasin’!

Well somebody ought to comment here, so Rich does not develop a morning inferiority complex.
That Laura Washington column which included a smackdown of Todd Stroger is really worth taking a look at.
Think of all the liberal columnist at the Sun-Times who have spoken out quite forcefully on the Cook County Board President situation such as Washington, Neil Steinberg, Dan Brown, Cindy Richards, Mary Mitchell, and Carol Marin, and you just have to wonder why in the world the editorial board decided to endorse Stroger.
Do they read their own newspaper?
And what is with the goofy looking tabloid front pages that have been present for the past month and a half or so.
Are they trying to be like the Post and the Daily News in NYC?
