"Steve Huntley: Aldermen donâ€™t need names of accused officers to examine citizen complaints"

For too long I thought Huntley was merely a George W. Bush apologist but now it is clear that he is against ANY legislative review of authoritarian abuses of power.

As long as you're carrying a gun and wearing a uniform when you brutalize civilians, Steve Huntley has your back.

So by Dan Walker's logic, being a politician in your 70s is basically a license to steal, since it doesn't make sense to lock up someone that old.

Sounds like appropriate ethics for Illinois

I doubt very much if the Ryan family will be on bread and water rations for the next six years. If so, time for all their friends to step it up.
Good Bye George.

that Dan Walker op-ed is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. He fits in a book plug, a mention of sodomy and then starts bragging about his ethics achivements??? Dan, you're a weird old man and a little more than a footnote in Illinois political history.

ILLINOIS - Wireless access at interstate rest stops is on hold after Illinois officials failed to woo anyone willing to provide the service. The Illinois Department of Transportation said no vendors submitted bids.

How does the new Web site developed by Hynes' office - www.openbook.ioc.state.il.us help the taxpayers with what has gone on the last five years within the Blagojevich administration with regards to pay-to-play politics?
Answer is simply ZERO! Blagojevich and his gang of thugs have already gotten away with millions of taxpayer dollars.
Dan Hynes and Patrick Fitzgerald are going to have to dig a lot deeper than this.
