  1. Alderman Smith (or her staff) at the corner of Lawrence and Sheridan. Wanna guess how many of HELEN's constituents will come over and ask for help with the crime there or just ask for help in general because it would be a cold day in hell before she would ever do something like that. Kudos, MA Smith!

  2. Kudos, indeed.

    I'm sure Shiller would love to do something similar; too bad neither she nor her staff can be exposed to direct sunlight.

    Seriously though, this is a great idea from Smith (I'll ignore the whole elephant thing, for now), and Shiller would be well served to follow suit, if she could.

    Too bad she's so alienated and angered her constituency that she's afraid of the imminent confrontations.

  6. She'll send a surrogate non-profit to speak on her behalf.

  7. That direct sunlight comment was a killer. I almost swallowed my hotdog dinner whole as I laughed.

  8. It's really probably simple for Mary to keep those in her ward happy: Step 1) Read this blog and see what everyone hates about Helen. Step 2) Do the exact opposite.

  9. Shiller is already doing this. But they mostly open drug markets staffed by her voters. I hope Marc will take some pictures of evil people attempting to clean up and make the hodd safe.

    I wish shiller would have a functional home office.

    If she puts one outside her home she might acctually work. meaning she can log in her 2-3 hours of work a day right outside. Do withches were PJs?

  10. You mean people are allowed to see their alderman? Is this something new?

  11. Where on Lawrence and Sheridan? Three corners of that are in Shiller's kingdom ie Labor Ready shopping center, ghetto grocery on one corner, and city building on the other. Shiller would never do this beacuse she would be in danger. Not from the gangbangers but from the normal law abiding citizens that want a piece of her hide.

    LOL! When I moved here I had some vague notion that yuppies didn't like the Alderman. That didn't bother me because I considered myself an ultra-liberal peacenik. If someone had told me then that I would become one of those "law abiding citizens wanting a piece of her hide" I wouldn't have believed you. Yet, here I am.
