CNN gives evidence for why the entire government of Chicago should be rounded up and thrown in jail, and then that jail thrown into Lake Michigan. Chicago's Millennium project, which was supposed to celebrate the year 2000, is set to finally open this um... July.

Daley if you remember, is the same dickhead who unilaterally decided to bulldoze the Meigs Field airport to turn it into a city park, at the request of his wife. ("Boss Jr." tried to justify the vandalism under the guise of homeland security, but the fact that they destroyed the runway at 2 AM pretty much says it all.)
