#1 This situation reminds me of the problems faced fighting the Islamists - the bulk of the Muslims claim they want the bad ones to behave but they get all huffy if we hurt a baby bunny when we try to help. They provide the sea for the Islamofascist fish to swim in.

#6 The conservatives should personalize this disaster. Post pictures and names of each murder victim. Do not refer to statistics. Keep a running tally of victims after the each weekend of chaos. Policy disasters have consequences...and in this case we should know the names of the victims paid the price of Emanuel's policy decisions.

#7 Didn't Giuliani turn it around for New York? Seems to me it could be done if they just had the right guy in office. But then, it is Chicago.

#12 Bobby, I believe Rudy was term-limited out of office, not voted out. Bloomberg changed the rules so he could get a third term.
