I wonder just how many state and federal govenments are affected by this exact pomp and arrogance? This is the democratic process that America prides itself on? I for one am ashamed and appauled that these people are even in office:
It's the latest twist on the "it's our turn" catch-phrase popular when Chicago elected its first black mayor in 1983, said Laura Washington, a professor at Chicago's DePaul University.
"It also means it's our turn to be as corrupt and irresponsible to the democratic process as their white predecessors have been," said Washington, who also is a Chicago Sun-Times columnist.
Local Democratic party leaders still have to help make the elder Jones' wish come true. But if history is any guide, they will. And Jones, a South Side lawmaker and proud product of the Chicago machine, is making no apologies.
These few sentences alone should be enough to have them fired or impeached.
Who do these people think they are. Well, for one they get their examples from the Washington Political Machine that has the same " inheritence process ". It is time that America stops flundering to these greedy power brokers of the political community and start affecting change in this great nation. I am so sick of the pride, egos and near criminal activities that have been designed and promoted to keep a liberal educated agenda on the rise in America. We the People, not them the powerful run this country. And many of them need to go! Does no one else find this racist and discriminating? If whites did this same thing we would be tared and feathers for sure. Reverse Guilty, White Guilt needs to stop today.
