      Alderman Brookins kicked SEIU's ass last time and he will kick it again. Wal-Mart doesn't need  SEIU and it's plantation mentality. It goes directly to the President elect if it needs something. Anyway if they need to buy SEIU all they need to do is drop a envelope off at Tom Balanoffs mansion.

      <![CDATA[Wal-Mart could start construction tomorrow if they wanted.  Just genuflect before your SEIU masters, grant them right of passage to unionize your workers, and the construction starts the next day.
    
    The SEIU just put the President-elect in the White House.
    
    Good luck Alderman Brookins.  You'll need it.

     Life is great! Only in America , you can make a living exposing mismanagement by the Mayor of Chicago and a stupid drunk Chicago City Worker that lives in DesPlaines !

    There is a long established method to organize retail workers.  It is much more complex and takes more work than making bold and economically unfeasible political declarations.

      They are like the Kennedy's. They have $$$$$$$$$$$ and influence at the newspaers/Couty Gov/State Gov. and now the White House.

Look at his brother John who could not pass the Insurance exam. Look at his niece who was given a Judgeship because she is a Daley. The list goes on and on.

      Your right. Expand a Airport with NO planes, costing the taxpayers $billions of dollars is a great move by Mayor Burnout Daley! Going into a Village outside Chicago and pushing people out of there homes is genius.
    
     This is what are fathers fought for in the wars, freedom for the people.....Democracy!
    
     Hopefully someday, Daley will get back waht he gave out!

    Shareeka Jackson 
    Bobbett Fioretti
    Brendan O'Rielly
    Scott Wagsuespack
