Again you miss the point, nobets. They have their “pinkies” in the entire country, Chicago doesn’t even enter into their formula. Look into “Tamiflu” patents and how much Rummy made telling people to take it. Look into Lockheed’s board of directors, like Lynne Cheney, or of course Halliburton and its many subsidiaries and “friends”(with privileges??).
No, I just recognize that sometimes a red herring is just a dead fish.
Wall Street is NOT in Chicago. “K Street” is NOT in Chicago. Denver and Houston oil money is NOT Chicago. Detroit and Tennessee auto plants are NOT Chicago. Water wars affecting a critical part of our future are NOT taking place, or controlled from Chicago. Boss Tweed wasn’t Chicago. The Reagan Mafia was NOT Chicago. Nixon never touched base in Chicago. Mass. wings of the Bush AND Kennedy power bases weren’t in Chicago. The “windy city” is just a whipping boy for blowhards and morons.
Well, then, do you mean to say Wall Street is less influential than Chicago? Because I might be a little skeptic about that claim. Nothing personal, you know.
