The funniest thing I read today

Says the Chicago Tribune:

Mayor Richard Daley’s administration believes it has cleaned up the city’s corrupt hiring system and early next year will seek to end court oversight of its personnel practices, his top lawyer told aldermen Thursday. 

Mara Georges said she plans to tell a federal judge that the city is in “substantial compliance” with the decades-long Shakman decree, the legal threshold for getting out from under court control.

Richie Daley has cleaned up Chicago’s corruption? I know lawyers are paid to stretch the truth some, but Mara Georges just got a nose longer than the Chicago lakefront.
