Family Matters but not to Todd "Urkel "Stroger

Greetings from cyber world. Over the last week or so , Cook County Board President Todd "Urkel "Stroger has dug a hole for himself that he will have great difficulty getting out from under. First he fired his cousin/CFO ,Donna Dunnings from his staff because she bailed out her former assistant , Tony " Convict" Cole, the former Ruth's Chris busboy who became her assistant and who knows what else.To her credit , she bailed out Tony Cole out on her own dime and not the County's but the bigger question became"WHY WAS A CONVICTED FELON HIRED IN THE FIRST PLACE??"

Then when questions were posed to Todd"Urkel"Stroger by Chicago's best reporter, Carol Marin, Stroger dodged them like a 4th Grade nerd in Dodgeball.... not very well.Then he got downright rude with Carol and basically had a meltdown on live television.God Bless WTTW and Carol Marin...they gave Todd all the room he needed to make an absolute ass of himself...and that's saying a lot.Later in the week, President Stroger, in an Emergency Cook County Board Meeting to discuss the financial state of the County , was asked to resign by Commissioners Larry Suffredin (D- Carol Ronen's Double Dipping Kingdom of Doom) and Tony"Baloney" Peraica (R- The parts of Cook County no one really cares about now that Betty Loren Maltese is in the pokie for fraud) for basically being asleep at the wheel while this whole fiasco went down.

Props though to "Toddler" for finally learning how to turn off "Baloney" Peraica's microphone when he was out of order. I guess Donna must have showed him where the button was on her way out along with the red phone for the Dunkin Donuts across from the County Building where they hold six dozen donuts a day to keep John Daley from chewing the furniture. Considering that Suffredin sold out Cook County Taxpayers by agreeing to go along with the Sales Tax increase only to find Cook County still in financial trouble and no end in sight ,it takes a lot of "chutzpah" to ask someone else to resign for incompetence. Next thing you know , Mayor Daley is going to tell President Stroger to be more forthcoming about the whole situation...oh wait that did happen !! So there you go"Profiles in Chutzpuh" at its finest.

When the Mayor of Chicago starts giving you advice on transparency in government the writing is on the wall. I personally want Todd Stroger to stay on as Cook County Board President.Todd is much more entertaining as President of the Cook County Board and with summer reruns approaching ,Todd Strogers administration just might be the comedy hit of the summer.I only ask one thing, could you please take every opportunity you can to give Commissioner Gainer all the publicity you can muster? I know she will be very appreciative of any help you can give her as she tries to actually run for the 10th District Board seat .She got the five votes that mattered this time but when she faces the District electorate, I suspect with your help, she will get what she truly deserves...the collective foot of the District on her bony behind right out the door.Lets see how tough she is when "Daddy" Daley distances himself from a futile run at public office. All the Great Lakes Medicaid money in the world wont buy her a personality, let alone a freaking clue. The best thing that Great Lakes Medicaid money could buy her would be a pair of scissors to cut Daley's puppet strings but we all know that once "Daddy" Daley owns you ,he owns you for life . Just ask Ron Huberman!
