why hasn't preckwinkle hauled tom dart in to testify before the county board?
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.

he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.

situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.

Bill Clinton's use of Don't Stop during the 1992 campaign was a signal of boomers political ascendance, the first millennial president will use i dunno Elliot Smith i guess
