#3 Daley pledged continued cooperation with federal authorities, saying "this probe has caused me to ask many questions of my own and evaluate how and where the system broke down. On my orders, my staff is moving aggressively to address those issues."

That's good, kid! Find a fall guy! You were payin attention! I'm proud of ya.

#5 A little background for those unfamiliar:
before he became "Da Mare", Daley was the Cook County State's Attorney (head prosecutor for Cook County, Illinois). If anyone knows how to deal, he does.

#7 Lissen: youse guys jus doan know how Da Mare handles dese tings.

Way back in da sebenties, I tink, I hoid da orignoil Mare, King Richard Da Foist, answer da following questions:

"Mr. Mayor: Is it true you awarded the City insurance contract to the firm your son works for?"

Mayor Richard J. Daley (a.k.a. King Richard Da Foist)- "Well, if you can't take care of your own family, what's da woild comin' to?"

Dat basically was da end of da storey.

Only in Chicago, "The City Dat Woiks!"
