@grok @Marathonpundit @grok No relation whatsoever? What about the Illinois Health Facilities Planning Board? Wasn't there some connect the dots with Obama/Rezko and Blago?

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@BrianCostin Retried, of course.

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@BrianCostin They should be retired. Obviously they did something unethical, and likely illegal.

@chicagotribune Typical client. Narcissist. Wasting other people's money.

@FT @EdwardGLuce wrote this? That's a shocker. He is usually such a profound analyst
(Not really, he is a complete dope)

@RahmEmanuel Recalling your protests against Chic-fil-A. Not really your finest hour(s).

Now there are 10 location in the City. Who got their nose broken again and why would you want to break somebody's nose at Chic-fil-A?

You have picked some really ill advised fights over the years.

@Wells15Kevin @RosieBRB That is just wrong. We would not be paying more in property taxes, if the Bears decided to locate in AH.

@Chicago9811 @dgoldschmidt @Wells15Kevin Around 1 Million people have moved out of Chicago in the last 75 years. Homes sit vacant for decades after residents move.

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@Wells15Kevin @dgoldschmidt The Bears were paying for the Arlington Heights Dev.
The Northside of Evanston already had a bigger stadium. Infrastructure needs were less not more (though NU put in a real stadium sewage disposal system)
NU will also send a huge amount to Evanston via the Amusement Tax.

@RahmEmanuel When you were Mayor, you were actually picketing in front a Chicago Chic-Fil-A location, like some kind of 68 year old purple-haired suburban woman.

@Marathonpundit @ChicagoContrar1 @Giannoulias @susanamendoza10 My favorite was his family bank failure, which he attributed to his father's passing and the estate tax. Except his mother was still alive (and still is) so there was no estate tax due.

He also supported the Estate Tax when running for Senate. He is a real piece of work.

@tnertz @landon20s I spy Tony Rezko's CFO on that list. Tony got 10 years in prison for financial crimes. His CFO got a job as a civic bigwig.

So either the CFO was inompetent and didn't know what was going on, or in on the deal. Not a lot of other alternatives.

@gerardtbaker Tolerable, if trivial article, but the idea that the UK couldn't do with some tax cuts is ludicrous. Gove's economic recommendations here are to the Left of James Callaghan's Labor in 1979. Need a Margaret Thatcher to give him a wake-up call.

@ChalkandChange Chicago does have this

@DrAimeeSmith @wizardofodds6 @foxnewspolitics But you aren't buying it? How was Jesus able to save St. Joachim and St. Anne for example?

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@DrAimeeSmith @wizardofodds6 @foxnewspolitics So when Jesus came to save the living and the dead, was he just kidding around or did he actually mean it?

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@cortadinho @wizardofodds6 @foxnewspolitics Also what an ignorant thing to say.

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@rightscholar Good Lord you are insufferable. Can't have an honest conversation, nope, must go TDS 24x7x365.

[EvanstonNWReader @reader_nw]

@realDavidAndres @foxnewspolitics Bishop Robert Barron's main YouTube channel has approximately 3.28 million subscribers and features over 1,800 videos....so 'No one cares' is really a humdinger here.
