While looking around for a news source a little more dependable than the Mainstream Media this morning, I saw the following headline on The Onion: "City of Chicago to Modernize Outdated Graft Programs"
While it's tempting to laugh out loud (and yes, I did) at such a lampooning of a famously crooked city government, it stops being as funny when you remember that it's your city, in your state, that they're talking about... and that it's likely to be forwarded all over the internet, making this "All Democrat, All the Time" city a laughingstock in offices and dorm rooms everywhere.
So go ahead and check it out -- we all need and deserve a laugh these days -- but the medicine might go down better if you can manage to think of yourself as a Wisconsinite, Indianan, or Iowan while you read it.
