   Rahm Emmanuel’s latest in Chicago. From Daily Kos. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2013/08/25/1233668/-Rahm-Running-Scared-Orders-Entire-City-on-Alert

   In what is becoming an international spectacle Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel or, Murder Mayor as he is called in some circles, is deploying all city departments until further notice to be deployed on all Safe Passage routes in the first few weeks when school starts for the Chicago Public Schools. A well informed police blog Second City Cop is reporting that orders are going out this weekend for not only Chicago Police redeployments but all city departments to be part of the Mayors damage control in case something happens during the hours that children go back-and-forth to school each day. The Safe Passage routes are the outcrop of the Mayor’s closing of 50 plus schools in one year the greatest number of public schools in American history in one city.

   The Daily Kos has more details and many links.

   Gotta love “The Onion” and always do!!!! Ironically, they sure do have it easy these days. They virtually can take the words right out of Arne Duncan’s mouth or just about any “ed reformer” verbatim and it reads like a true satire!!!!
