HONORING CRIMINALS

Happy Birthday - April 15 - Harold!

Convicted Felon then Chicago Mayor (In Illinois the jail sentence usually follows election, but Harold did it backwards, and African-American voters have a true affinity for crooks and cheats), Harold Washington's excuse for tax evasion, deemed a less serious crime now that a good fraction of B.O.'s initial cabinet were guilty of it, was that he had forgotten to file.

In a way the stupid lie was humorous, since Washington's birthday was tax day, April 15.

At any rate the criminal came to be downright beloved in Chicago, aka Murder Capital USA, where public buildings now bear his name.

Presently the city's in the process of turning Harold into a cause for a month-long celebration. Says a lot for the values over there, doesn't it?
